3), be the ATRP reaction of catalyzer.
Present ATRP system also exists defective: because rate of polymerization is relevant with the amount of catalyzer and part, and for reaching suitable polymerization velocity, catalyst levels big (1: 100) in the polymerization system; The C-Cl bonding strength of initiator is greater than the C-Br key in the catalyst system, and therefore for the Cl-ATRP system, polymerization temperature is generally at 100~130 ℃; The polymerization temperature of Br-ATRP system is at 80~110 ℃, and polymerization temperature is also higher, thereby increases production cost; As medium, environment is produced pollution with organic solvent; The toxicity of the amine part that is added; The small molecules ligand catalyst of transition metal is after polymerization finishes, and catalyzer needs could separate after loaded down with trivial details processing, and processing costs is too high; Catalyzer is difficult to recycle.
