Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A three neck round bottom flask was charged with 8.4 g of butyl acrylate, 7.6 g of methyl methacrylate, 24.3 g of 2-acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate, 1.3 g of dodecanethiol and 52 g of butyl acetate. This mixture was heated to 70° C. with vigorous mechanical stirring, under a nitrogen atmosphere. 2,2'-Azobis(2-methylbutanenitrile), 0.62 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 1.23 milliequivalents acetoacetate per gram of polymer.
