| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Highly elastic, tough supramolecular elastomers (noncovalent-bonded elastomers) were prepared from block copolymers composed of glassy, solid blocks and molten blocks with multiple noncovalent bonding functional groups. Reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization was used to synthesize polystyrene-b-poly[(butyl acrylate)-co-acrylamide]-b-polystyrene (S-Ba-S) that serves as a supramolecular elastomer. S-Ba-S showed much better mechanical properties than polystyrene-b-poly(butyl acrylate)-b-polystyrene (S-B-S) of a conventional thermoplastic elastomer without noncovalent bonding functional groups, even in spite of having almost the same total average molecule weight. Therefore, incorporation of noncovalent bonding functional groups into molten blocks was found to be useful to prepare supramolecular elastomers attaining high extensibility and toughness simultaneously.
