Group transfer polymerization (GTP) was used to prepare semifluorinated polymers based on acrylic and methacrylic monomers. In the first case, electrophilic catalyzed GTP was applied with l-methoxy-2-methyl-l-trimethylsilyloxy-1-propene (MMTP) as initiator, zinc iodide as catalyst and 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorooctyl acrylate as monomer. In this way it has been possible to obtain oligomers. Higher molecular weight polymers were prepared by ...
