Abstract

AbstractThe kinetics and mechanism of radical polymerization of vinyl acetate in dimethyl formamide with syndiotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) as a polymer template was investigated. The reaction rates showed that complexation between the template and poly(vinyl acetate) was maximum when the template: polymer ratio was 1 : 1. The molecular weight of the daughter polymer was very close to that of the template. The order of reaction with respect to template, monomer, and initiator was 0.40, 1.10, and 0.44, respectively.
