Abstract
Various aliphatic polyesters such as poly (ethyleneadipate), poly (tet ramethylene adipate), poly (caprolactone), and poly (carbonate) were c ondensed with 4,4'-azobis-4-cyanopentanoyl chloride to prepare macro-a zo-initiators. Their thermal properties, observed by differential scan ning calorimetry, showed similar decomposition behavior to each other. Block copolymers containing each of these polyesters as a block segme nt combined polystyrene or poly (methylmethacrylate) have been derived by the polymerization of monomers initiated with these macro-azo-init iators.
