BAMO聚合物的合成与表征（英）

1 IntroductionPolymers synthesized from energetic oxetane deriva-tives have received a lot of attention in recent years, ow-ing to their potential application as novel binders for rock-et propellants[1 -8]. For the said application, the synthe-sis of oxetane-based polymers are required to incorporatethe properties of molecular weight control, low polydis-persity, and introduction of energetic characteristics[4 -8].Novel living polymerization systems have been utilized inthe synthesis of oxetan…

Synthesis and Characterization of Poly BAMO Suitable for Binder Application

A new synthetic methodology has been developed for the synthesis of poly BAMO and poly BAMO-co-THF with controlled molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution. The synthesis of BCMO,the precursor of the BAMO monomer was accomplished using the reaction of Vilsmeir reagent with pentaerythritol. The BAMO monomer could be synthesized with an over all yield of 60% and polymerized using BF3·Et2O as the initiator and 1,4-butane diol as the co-initiator. Computational evaluation of the energy releasing properties of the poly BAMO derivatives was performed using Gaussian algorithm. The theoretically calculated values agreed very well with the experimentally determined ones.
