Abstract

Abstract A novel divinyl ether was synthesized by a convenient method with high yield. Then the divinyl ether was combined with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and acrylic acid, respectively, generating difunctional polymeric crosslinkers with (hemi)acetal structure that was labile in acid. The chemical structures of the divinyl ether and crosslinkers were confirmed by 1 H NMR and elemental analysis. The crosslinkers were employed in free-radical polymerization to prepare polymer gel and gel particles. Due to the (hemi)acetal structure in the crosslinking segment, the polymer gel and particles exhibited degradable ability in strong acid.
