Mechanical and Structural Consequences of Associative Dynamic Cross-Linking in Acrylic Diblock Copolymers
Year: 2021
Type: article
Abstract: Block copolymers are used to construct covalent adaptable networks that employ associative exchange chemistry (vitrimers). The resulting vitrimers display markedly different nanostructural, thermal and rheological properties relative to those of their statistical copolymer-derived counterparts. This study demonstrates that prepolymer sequence is a versatile strategy to modify the properties of vitrimers.
