Copolymerization of tetrahydrofuran and propylene oxide

Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Copolymerization of tetrahydrofuran and propylene oxide catalyzed by modified H2SO4.SO3 system has been studied. Sodium perchloride was used to replace perchloric acid as co-catalyst. The copolymerization rate was obviously accelerated when using the new H2SO4.SO3−NAClO4 catalyst system. The reaction became less sensitive to the moisture.
