(last updated on 2026/01/20)Abstract:
A commercially available PDMS (poly(dimethylsiloxane)) macronomer has been used to stabilize the dispersion polymerization of MMA (methyl methacrylate) in liquid and supercritical CO2 and of styrene in supercritical CO2 . Purification of the obtained PMMA showed that only a fraction of the macromonomer added to the polymerization actually copolymerized.
