The Influence of the Synthesis Conditions on the Compositional Inhomogeneity of Copolymers of Higher N -alkyl Acrylamides and n -docecyl (meth)Acrylate
The “special” nature of the copolymerisation of higher N-alkyl acrylamides of different structure with n-dodecyl acrylate or n-docecyl methacrylate in butyl acetate or toluene is shown. It has been found that the compositional inhomogeneity of the obtained copolymers is determined by the overall initial monomer concentration and the structure of the ester, while the structure of the amides, replacement of the solvent, and variation of the initiator concentration have little effect on compositional inhomogeneity.
