C. Lemaire et al., SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL AMPHIPHILIC DI-BLOCK AND MULTIARMED STAR-SHAPED COPOLYMERS BASED ON POLYISOBUTYLENE AND POLY(ETHYLENE OXIDE), Macromolecular symposia, 122, 1997, pp. 371-376
The synthesis of polyisobutylene-b-poly(ethylene oxide) linear diblock
copolymers and multiarmed star-shaped copolymers (having one-polyisob
utylene-arm and two, three, or four, -poly(ethylene oxide)-identical l
ength arms) is described. All these different structures were characte
rized by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and Size Exclusion Chromatography
