Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The present study describes the kinetic investigation of the complex binary copolymerization system maleic anhydride (MA)—dicyclopentadiene (DCPD). All syntheses were carried out in homogeneous solution; high conversions in soluble and linear copolymer are achievable when starting from an equimolecular monomer feed. Excess of DCPD would limit the attainable conversions, while surplus of MA would induce crosslinking of the copolymers. The findings of the thorough kinetic study were sustained by structural assessment from IR and NMR spectra recorded for various copolymers, both soluble and gels.
