Methyl Methacrylate → Methyl Methacrylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

50 Grams of N,N-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate, 50 g. of methyl methacrylate, 1 g. of Dupanol ME, 1 g. of Emulphor ON-870, 6 g. of ethylene diacrylate, 1 g. of potassium persulfate, and 0.5 g. of sodium bisulfite are dissolved or mixed with 1,000 g. of water. This mixture is tumbled in a water bath at 60° C. for 24 hr. to obtain a crosslinked copolymer of methyl methacrylate and N,N-diethylaminoethyl acrylate. The crosslinked polymer is separated from the aqueous dispersion by the method described in Example 4.
