Zs. Yan et al., Synthesis and characterization of terpolymer of methyl methacrylate, styrene and dibutyltin maleate, CHEM J CH U, 22(2), 2001, pp. 325-328
Benzoic peroxide (BPO) was used as an initiator in bulk terpolymerization o
f dibutyltin maleate (DBTM), methyl methacrylate(MMA) and styrene(St). The
conditions of copolymerization were discussed. The copolymer was characteri
zed by GPC, IR, H-1 NMR and TG analysis; and the results showed the occurre
nce of copolymerization, The number-average molecular weight of terpolymer
was above 10(4). The dynamic thermorheological test showed that, the therma
l stability of copolymer was superior to that of DBTM. It may be used as po
lyfunctional PVC stabilizer.
