Description

Block copolymer and process for producing the same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of high polymer synthesis, in particular to a method for preparing a block copolymer without using a metal catalyst in the synthesis reaction process.
Background
Polyvinyl acetate is used as a mature industrial product and is widely applied to the fields of gluing, coating chemical industry, building decoration and the like, but the polyvinyl acetate material prepared in the prior industrial technology is often wide in molecular weight distribution and unsatisfactory in performance. As an important component in living radical polymerization, the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (Reversible Addition-Fragmentation chain Transfer, RAFT) radical polymerization process has evolved rapidly over the last two decades. The polymerization method has the characteristics of mild conditions, wide application range of monomers and the like, and is widely applied to the synthesis of polymers with specific structures such as blocks, grafts, hyperbranched and stars. Notably, among other things, the regulator, or Chain Transfer Agent (CTA), plays a very important role in RAFT polymerization, with its activating and leaving groups having a direct impact on the reaction kinetics. The most common CTAs in RAFT polymerization are cumyl dithiobenzoate (cumyl dithiobenzoate, CDB) and methyl benzyl dithiobenzoate (l-phenylethyl dithiobenzoate, PEDB). In the regulation and control of some common monomers, such as styrene and methacrylate monomers, good regulation and control capability is shown. However, the range of monomers that can be regulated by such CTAs is limited and is not common to the regulation of other common monomers (e.g., vinyl acetate).
Polyvinyl alcohol is a material commonly used in industry for paints, contact lenses, polarizing films, and biomedical hydrogels, has extremely high industrial requirements, and can be used in products with high added value. It is known that the synthesis of polyvinyl alcohol block copolymers must be aided by regulators containing sulfur or heavy metals. However, sulfur and heavy metals are not only biologically toxic, but also present a pollution risk to the environment. In addition, sulfur-containing or heavy metal-containing regulators are expensive. All of the above problems limit the applicability of the polycondensed vinyl alcohol block copolymer.
In the prior art, the Diamond (Diamond) structure of three stars solves the display requirement of high PPI, and the pixel shape is a quadrilateral or rectangular structure, but still has a larger lifting space in terms of space utilization.
