Reaction Steps

In a glass polymerization bottle were charged 80 g IOA, 18 g IBA, 2 g HEMA, 100 g ethyl acetate, and 0.5 g dibenzoyl peroxide. The bottle was purged with nitrogen, sealed, and tumbled in a water bath maintained at 60° C. for 14 hrs. The resulting terpolymer, IOA/IBA/HEMA, was isolated by precipitation in petroleum ether. The terpolymer has a number average molecular weight of 180,000 (polymer V). This high molecular weight polymer having a pendent hydroxyl moiety was mixed with the low molecular weight oligomer composition used in Example 15 in Table 4, coated onto a PET liner, and subjected to 80° C. to affect crosslinking, as in Examples 7-15. Properties of the resulting crosslinked polymer are shown in Table 5.
