| Summary: | An alternative approach for controlling the polymer molecular weight distribution (MWD) was developed based on the degradation of precisely synthesized degradable long-chain polymers. The long-chain mother polymer was prepared
via
living cascade enyne metathesis polymerization and programmed monomer addition, and molecular-weight-controlled daughter polymers were obtained by degradation. We controlled the average molecular weight (
M
n
) and MWD at the targeted
M
n
by varying the degradable-to-nondegradable monomer feed ratio and employing programmed monomer addition, respectively.
An alternative approach for controlling the polymer molecular weight distribution (MWD) was developed based on the degradation of precisely synthesized degradable long-chain polymers. |
