Abstract:
The invention relates to a polymer that can be obtained by radically polymerizing at least one monomer of general formula (I), wherein: R represents an alkylene radical having 1 to 44 C atoms, a cycloalkylene radical having 3 to 44 C atoms, an arylene radical having 4 to 40 C atoms, an aralkylene radical having 5 to 40 C atoms or a heteroaryl radical having 4 to 40 C atoms; R , R and R , independent of one another, represent H or an alkyl radical having 1 to 10 C atoms or an aryl radical having 4 to 12 C atoms, and; Z represents a substituent having at least one thermally induced homolytically cleavable bond, whereby the thermally induced homolytic cleaving of the bond in Z occurs at a temperature ranging from - 10 DEG C to 150 DEG C. The invention also relates to a method for producing the aforementioned polymer and to the use thereof.
Abstract:
Production of halo- or chlorosulfonyl-functional polymers (I) comprises radical polymerization of an aromatic monomer (IIa), a halo- or chlorosulfonyl-functional monomer (IIb) and another monomer (IIc). Production of halo- or chlorosulfonyl-functional polymers (I) comprises radical polymerization of a monomer of formula (IIa), a halo- or chlorosulfonyl-functional monomer (IIb) and another monomer (IIc). R1-R4 = H or optionally substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl or aryl, at least two being aryl, or R1+R2 or R3+R4 is an aryl-substituted functional group having a carbon-heteroatom multiple bond conjugated with the C=C group. Independent claims are also included for: (1) polymers (I) produced as above; (2) production of graft copolymers by reacting (I) with monomers; (3) graft copolymers produced as above.
