The synthesis of controlled polystyrenes with different molecular weights h
as been performed in the presence of 1-phenyl-1-(2,2,8,6-tetramethyl-1-pipe
ridinyl- oxy)ethane (PETEMPO). The polystyrenes have served as macroinitiat
ors for the formation of poly(styrene-b-butyl methacrylate) block copolymer
s, Using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) it has been shown that all
black copolymers synthesized do not present phase segregation. (C) 2001 Jo
