Abstract
A new methacrylic monomer from the reaction of methacryloyl chloride w ith p-cumylphenol has been synthesized. The effect of sterically bulky p-cumylphenyl group on homopolymerization and copolymerization was ex amined. In copolymers, p-cumylphenyl methacrylate increases the T-g of acrylic polymers. The T-g of the copolymers as determined by DSC agre es with both the Flory-Fox and Gordon-Taylor relationships.
