Notes:
The influence of the reactivity of the starting compounds and reaction conditions on the formation of the macromolecules of copolymers has been investigated for a nonequilibrium copolycondensation in solution by acceptor-catalytic polyesterification. In the nonequilibrium copolycondensation in solution, copolymers with different distributions of units may be formed, depending on various factors. Introduction of all amounts of acid chloride (intermonomer) in the beginning of the nonequilibrium copolycondensation leads to the formation of copolymers with statistical distribution of the units independent of the difference in reactivity of the comonomers used. For synthesis of copolymers with a block structure by one-stage nonequilibrium polycondensation in solution the initial comonomers must have different reactivities (r ≠ 1) and the rate of intermonomer introduction must be lower than that of its reaction with the more reactive comonomer. On varying the above factors, block copolymers with different lengths of block segments may be obtained.
