Summary
-
1.
The conditions were found for the polymerization of methyl acrylate and of methyl methacrylate and for their copolymerization with vinyl ethers in presence of a homogeneous stereospecific-polymerization catalyst at room temperature.
-
2.
The composition of the benzene-soluble fraction of the vinyl ether copolymers is directly related to the original monomer ratio and can be controlled.
-
3.
The methyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate polymers obtained are high-melting thermostable products which, judging from their solubilities and thermomechanical properties, have a three-dimensional structure. Methyl acrylate-alkyl vinyl ether copolymers exist in the highly elastic state over a considerable temperature range.
