Abstract: Sulfur copolymers and methods of synthesizing said sulfur copolymers are described herein. Elemental sulfur is melted to form liquid sulfur monomers having reactive sulfur groups. Epoxy-functionalized styrenic comonomers having an epoxide moiety and a vinylic moiety are added to the liquid sulfur monomers. The reactive sulfur groups of the liquid sulfur monomers copolymerize with the epoxide or vinylic moiety of the epoxy-functionalized styrenic comonomers to form a crosslinked network of the sulfur copolymer.
