Oligomers of cholesterol vinyl ether (CVE) with methyl vinyl sulfide synthesized in the presence of cationic catalyst ВF3 OEt2 in up to 81% yield (Mn up to 5700) demonstrate optical activity exceeding that of CVE homopolymer, which is probably due to both conformational effects of the oligomer chain and chirality induction during the polymerization.

AbstractThe copolymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE) with methyl vinyl ether (MVE), initiated by the system 1,1-diethoxyethane/trimethylsilyl iodide/zinc iodide and conducted at 0°C in toluene, was found to be ‘living’ just as the homopolymerizations of these monomers. Monomer reactivity ratios are rIBVE = 1.08 and rMVE = 0.43. The lower critical solution temperature of polyMVE in water, situated around 37°C, was lowered to 10°C (for a 0.25 wt.-% solution) when 6 mol-% of IBVE units were introduced in copolymers of molar mass 3000 - 7000 g/mol. At higher IBVE contents, the polymers are insoluble in water at all temperatures.

The thermal stability and decomposition of in-situ crosslinked nanocellulose whiskers – poly(methyl vinyl ether-co-maleic acid) – polyethylene glycol formulations (PMVEMA-PEG), (25%, 50%, and 75% whiskers) – were investigated using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) methods. The thermal degradation behavior of the films varied according to the percent cellulose whiskers in each formulation. The presence of cellulose whiskers increased the thermal stability of the PMVEMA-PEG matrix.
