Abstract

The monomer 2-allylphenoxyorganocyclotriphosphazene was synthesized by reacting hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene with 2-allylphenol, phenol and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol by phase transfer catalysis in a dichloromethane/alkaline solution. The copolymerizations of 2-allylphenoxyorganocyclotriphosphazene with styrene, methyl methacrylate and vinylbenzyl chloride were investigated. Nine copolymers of 2-allylphenoxyorganocyclotriphosphazene were identified in the solution. These copolymers were characterized by using light scattering, viscometry and 31P n.m.r. spectroscopic techniques. The micelles were observed to hydrodynamically and thermodynamically behave as impermeable spheres. The structure of the micellar shell was determined. The translational diffusion coefficient, Mark-Houwink constants, hydrodynamic radius, micellar weight, aggregation number, characteristic ratio and intrinsic viscosity were obtained. The chains of copolymer were observed to have a high degree of stiffness and a lack of rotational freedom in solution.
