Alternating amphiphilic multiblock copolymers: Controlled synthesis via RAFT polymerization and aqueous solution characterization
(2010)Four linear amphiphilic multiblock copolymers based on 2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA, hydrophilic) and methyl methacrylate (MMA, hydrophobic), bearing from two to five blocks, were synthesized using reversible ...

Biosourced amphiphilic degradable elastomers of poly(glycerol sebacate): Synthesis and network and oligomer characterization
(2013)Glycerol (G, a triol) and sebacic acid (S, an α,ω-dicarboxylic acid) were condensed in the bulk to obtain poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS) cross-linked elastomers which were characterized in terms of their swelling, thermal, ...

Degradable amphiphilic end-linked conetworks with aqueous degradation rates determined by polymer topology
(2009)Degradable amphiphilic conetworks, based on end-linked amphiphilic ABA triblock copolymers with a labile fragment in the middle, were synthesized by sequential group transfer polymerization (GTP) of monomers and cross-linker, ...

Di(n-butyl) itaconate end-functionalized polymers: Synthesis by group transfer polymerization and solution characterization
(2011)In this study we present our efforts to homo- and co-polymerize, using group transfer polymerization (GTP), a dialkyl diester of itaconic acid, a naturally-derived unsaturated dicarboxylic acid. The monomer employed, ...

Multi-functional conetworks based on cross-linked star polymers
(2010)Three series of conetworks based on cross-linked star polymers of different architectures were prepared using group transfer polymerization. The first series of conetworks were amphiphilic, based on the hydrophobic monomer ...

Synthesis and characterization of rigid functional anionic polyelectrolytes: Block copolymers and star homopolymers
(2012)Seven cyclolinear polymers bearing the tertiary-butyl α- (hydroxymethyl)acrylate (TBHMA) ether dimer were prepared using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Of the seven polymers, five ...

Synthesis, characterization and thermolysis of hyperbranched homo- and amphiphilic Co-polymers prepared using an inimer bearing a thermolyzable acylal group
(2012)Degradable hyperbranched polymers were synthesized via self-condensing atom transfer radical copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with a novel inimer bearing a thermolyzable acylal group. This inimer was ...

Well-defined polymers from biosourced monomers: The case of 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl tiglate
(2010)Tiglic acid esters are naturally derived olefins of pleasant odor but incapable of undergoing free-radical polymerization due to the steric hindrances conferred by the β-methyl group. In an effort to incorporate these green ...
