Abstract
Polymers of α-halostyrenes are unstable because they contain labile halogen atoms which are readily lost as hydrogen halide1. Although a few studies on the synthesis and applications of homopolymers and copolymers of α-chlorostyrene2–10, α-bromostyrene11,12 and α-fluorostyrene 13–16 have been reported, no systematic studies on the copolymerization behavior of these monomers or on the microstructures of their polymers are known. Most of these studies have dealt with homopolymerization of α-halostyrenes in emulsion or in suspension or with copolymerizations (mostly graft) involving very small molar percentages of α-halostyrene.
