Abstract:

Copolymerization of 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-octafluoropentyl acrylate (OFPA) and acrylic acid (AA), OFPA and tert-butyl acrylate (t-BA) in presence ofdibenzylcarbonotrithioate (BTC) and polymeric RAFT-agents was studied, reactivity ratios were calculated. It was shown that type of RAFT-agent can influence on chain microstructure of obtained polymers. Aggregation behavior of obtained amphiphilic copolymers with different microstructures at the air/water interface was characterized by the Langmuir monolayer technique. The effect of the microstructureand subphase pH on the isotherm curves were shown.
