… of Novel Star-Branched Polymers Containing Reactive Poly (1, 4-divinylbenzene) Arm (s) by Linking Reaction of Living Anionic Poly (1, 4-divinylbenzene) with Chain- …
We have synthesized several star-branched polymers having poly (1, 4- divinylbenzene)(PDVB) segment (s) by quantitatively linking the 1, 1-diphenylethylene- stabilized living anionic PDVB with the chain-(α-phenyl acrylate)-functionalized polymers. The synthesized polymers were the A3 regular star PDVB, A2B, AB2, ABC, ABCD, and A4B μ-star polymers. The A arm is the PDVB segment, while the B, C, or D arm is either a ...
