Abstract
Highly syndiotactic diblock and triblock copolymers comprising lauryl methacrylate (LMA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) with narrow molecular weight distributions were prepared by the living anionic polymerization with t-C4H9Li/(C2H5)3Al in toluene at low temperature. The block copolymers were soluble in acetone which is a non-solvent for poly(lauryl methacrylate) (PLMA). 1HNMR and vapor pressure osmometric analyses of the block copolymers indicated the aggregation of the copolymer in acetone through the interaction between PLMA blocks. Stereocomplex formation between the triblock copolymer and isotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) took place more effectively in solution than in the solid state.
