Abstract

Poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) was synthesized by the atom transfer radical polymerization of vinyl acetate (VAc) in supercritical carbon dioxide using CuBr/2,2':6',2''-terpyridine complex as a catalyst and ethyl 2-bromoisobutyrate as an initiator. Polymerization proceeded in a controlled manner, and low to moderate conversion was achieved within a reasonable time. The effects of the monomer amount, temperature, pressure, initiator, and ligand loading on monomer conversion, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the polymer were examined._x000D_ The reaction kinetics was also investigated. The polymerization reaction was found to be first-order with respect to the monomer concentration. The molecular weights of the resulting PVAc increased linearly with increasing VAc conversion.
