Notes:
In order to elucidate the mechanism of copolymerization of tetraoxane-1,3-dioxolane, the consumption rate of 1,3-dioxolane was measured by using gas chromatography, and the copolymer composition was determined by high-resolution NMR spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. It was found that 1,3-dioxolane is rapidly consumed in the early stage of copolymerization if 1,3-dioxolane is added at once. The copolymer thus obtained is characterized by a heterogeneous distribution of 1,3-dioxolane in the copolymer chain. However, if 1,3-dioxolane is added continuously during the progress of the copolymerization, the distribution and content of 1,3-dioxolane in the copolymer chain was found to be very homogeneous.
