COPOLYMERIZATION AND CROSSLINKING OF POLY (VINYL CINNAMATE) WITH VINYLIC MONOMERS

Abstract

Number of New Saturated Poly esters were Prepared as derivaitives of Poly (vinyl cinnamate). This Polymer was prepared form reaction of poly (vinylalcohol) with cinnamoyl chloride by condensation method.The synthesized poly (vinyl cinnamate) were allowed to copolymerized with six vinylic monomers including methyl cinnamate, methyl methcinnamate, acrylonitrile, acrylamide, maleic anhydride and p-toluidine maleimide respectively, and cross–linked via homo polymerization and with cross linking agent.The prepared polymers were react with electrophilic reagents as bromine in (CCL4) and bromine water. Structures conformation of all polymers and copolymers were identified by using F.T.IR spectroscopy and some of them were proved by using H-NMR in addition to elemental analysis
