The graft copolymers ne-co-(m,p)-chloromethylstyrene)-g-ethyleneimine)
] HPG1 and poly((m,p)-chloromethylstyrene-g-ethyleneimine) HPG2 were o
btained through the alkaline hydrolysis of the amphiphilic graft copol
ymers (m,p)-chloromethylstyrene)-g-2-methyl-2-oxazoline] and ((m,p)chl
oromethylstyrene-g-2-methyl-2-oxazoline), respectively. The subsequent
quaternization of HPG1 and HPG2 with methyl iodide resulted in new po
lyelectrolyte graft copolymers which are soluble in water despite of t
he hydrophobic backbone.
