Part of the book series: The Developments Series ((TDS,volume 2))

Summary

An illustrative review is given of the applications of13C NMR spectroscopy to the characterisation of copolymers. The introductory sections consider definitions of copolymers and some aspects of copolymer microstructure and statistics; the latter are important in any discussion of the applications of NMR to microstructural determinations. The main section is concerned with applications of 13C NMR to the determination of compositional sequences (monomer sequence distributions) and configurational sequences (tacticity) within copolymers. Many examples have been chosen of applications to commercially important copolymers including ethylene propylene, ethylene—vinyl acetate, styrenebutadiene, ethylene—CO, and polysulphones. The final section considers studies of molecular motion in copolymers and concludes with some discussion of the exciting recent developments in studies of motion in solid glassy polymers.
