Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polymer gels with novel three dimensional polymer network structures were prepared by Post-Polymerization Crosslinking (PPC), which was newly developed. The PPC consists of two steps. First step is the polymerization process to produce the linear polymer chain embedded with active ester groups as the side chain. Second step is the cross-linking process to form the three dimensional polymer network structures by the cross-linking reaction of the active ester group embedded in the polymer chain. The polymer gel with novel three dimensional network structures is different from the conventional gels obtained by the copolymerization with small amount of divinyl compound as cross-linker in the sequential structure of monomeric units in the network chain. The novel polymer gels were found to show the distinguishing properties.
