Notes:
Undecyl and phenyl oxazolines were synthesized. They were copolymerized in different mole ratios using methyl nosylate as initiator. A series of di- and triblock copolymers with narrow molecular weight distributions as indicated by GPC were obtained. A three-armed block copolymer was also obtained by using 1,3,5-tris(bromomethyl)benzene as initiator. When the nonpolar undecyl block crystallized as a coating, the critical surface energy approached 21.0 dyn/cm, and the contact angle of water on the surface could be higher than 107°. The melting point increased as the chain length of crystallizable undecyl block increased, and the melting peak on DSC was very sharp when the length was equal to or longer than 25 monomer units. When these copolymers were coated on substrates, the work of adhesion with pressure sensitive adhesives was greatly reduced.
