Abstract: | Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of styrene using bisallyl trithiocarbonate as a chain transfer agent (CTA) was studied. The polymerization exhibited first-order kinetics and the molecular weight increased linearly with increase of monomer conversion. Well defined allyl-functionalized telechelic polystyrene (PS), poly(tert-butyl acrylate) (PtBA) and corresponding triblock copolymers, polystyrene-b-poly(n-butyl acrylate)-b-polystyrene (PS-b-PnBA-b-PS) and poly(tert-butyl acrylate)-b-polystyrene-b-poly(tert-butyl acrylate) (PtBA-b-PS-b-PtBA) were prepared as characterized with GPC and NMR analysis. The allyl-end groups of the telechelic PS have been switched to 1,2-dibromopropyl groups quantitatively by bromine addition reaction, further substitution of the bromide with azide was also made. Furthermore, star PS with allyl-end-functionalized arms was synthesized by RAFT polymerization of divinyl benzene using allyl-functionalized PS as a macro-CTA via arm-first approach. Star polymer with a thiol-functionalized core was generated by aminolysis reaction of the star polymer and ethylenediamine. As a result, difunctionalized star polymer with allyl and thiol groups was obtained and was used as a stabilizer for the formation of gold nanoparticles. |
