Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A three neck round bottom flask was charged with 15.3 g of butyl acrylate, 7.9 g of methyl methacrylate, 17.7 g of 2-acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate, and 49.5 g of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate. This mixture was heated to 80° C. with vigorous mechanical stirring, under a nitrogen atmosphere. 2,2'-Azobis(2-methylbutanenitrile), 0.20 g, was added in one portion to the reaction mixture and the reaction was stirred at that temperature for 22 hours. A clear solution of the terpolymer was obtained and used without further purification. The resulting polymer had 0.91 milliequivalents acetoacetate per gram of polymer.
