C. Juin et al., Synthesis of macromonomers bearing hydrolyzable segments derived from alpha-hydroxyalkanoic acids, MACRO RAPID, 20(5), 1999, pp. 289-293
Methacrylic macromonomers bearing hydrolyzable oligoester segments are prep
ared by derivatization of oligo(alpha-hydroxyalkanoic acids) (obtained by t
hermal polycondensation) with methacrylic acid and copolymerized with tert-
butyl acrylate.
