Tailoring Uniform Copolymer Composition Distribution via Policy II RAFT Solution Copolymerization of Styrene and Butyl Acrylate

Abstract Controlled radical polymerization (CRP) is regarded as a powerful method to design various chain structures. Semibatch monomer feeding strategies in CRP are widely used for targeting the polymer products with desired copolymer composition distribution (CCD) and molecular weight distribution, which define the properties of polymer materials. In this work, the uniform CCD in reversible addition–fragmentation transfer (RAFT) solution …
