Reaction Steps

To 140 g of ethyl cellosolve were added 42 g of 3,4-epoxybutyl methacrylate⟦,9⟧, 9 g of methyl methacrylate, 9 g of hydroxyethyl methacrylate and 0.3 g of AIBN. The mixture was gently stirred and heated up to 90° C. During this treatment, nitrogen was continuously blown into the reaction system for more than about four hours. Consequently obtained was a light yellow solution measuring approximately 80 CPS in viscosity (molecular weight about 18,000). Thus a copolymer of 3,4-epoxybutyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate and hydroxyethyl methacrylate was formed.
