  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    Copolymers of alkyl vinyl ethers with vinyl acetate were prepared.

  2. 2.

    Increase in the number of carbon atoms in the alkoxy group of a vinyl ether is favorable to copolymerization.

  3. 3.

    The complex radical formed with the participation of 2,2'-azobis [2-methylpropionitrile] considerably raises the reactivity of vinyl ethers in their copolymerization with vinyl acetate.

  4. 4.

    Phenyl vinyl ether does not copolymerize with vinyl acetate in presence of benzoyl peroxide.
