Abstract

Acrylate monomer ((4-(3-(4-((4-(4-(3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl)phenoxy)-6-((4-nitrophenyl)amino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)oxy)phenyl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl)phenyl acrylate (DTCP) is prepared and used to prepare poly (DTCP) and its copolymer poly (DTCP-co-HEA) and poly (DTCP-co-S) using 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA), styrene (S) by solution polymerization technique. Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), proton Nucleharmar Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR), and UV-Visible techniques are used to identify the synthesized polymers. Gel permeation chromatography method is used to determine the polymer’s weight average molecular weight, which is found to be around 10000 g/mol. According to the Thermo Gravimetric Analysis study, the synthesized polymers go through single stage decomposition centered at 340°C. The polymer reactivity ratio is found using well known Finemann-Ross (F-R), Kelen-Tudos (K-T), and extended Kelen-Tudos (ex.K-T) methods. The reactivity of the commercial monomers (HEA or S) is found to be higher than that of synthesized monomer, according to our findings. The photocrosslinking rate of the synthesized polymers is determined using a UV visible spectroscopic method and found to be high for polymer having HEA unit.
