I. Pollers et al., H-1 AND C-13 NMR-SPECTROSCOPY AS A TOOL TO PROBE THE MICROSTRUCTURES OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF POLY(VINYL FORMAL), Macromolecules, 29(18), 1996, pp. 5875-5881
H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy has been used to analyze the stereoseque
nce and the comonomer sequence microstructure in poly(vinyl formal) (P
VF). The preparation method employed clearly has an effect on the func
tional group distribution. The results reveal that the heterogeneous m
odification method shows evidence for a blocky distribution of functio
nal groups whereas samples prepared by the precipitation method exhibi
t a random distribution.
