  • Publication number: 20050215755
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a poly(2-vinylpyridine)-b-poly(n-hexylisocyanate) amphiphilic coil-rod block copolymer and a polymerization method thereof, more particularly to a poly(2-vinylpyridine)-b-poly(n-hexylisocyanate) amphiphilic coil-rod block copolymer polymerized by a process comprising synthesizing poly(2-vinylpyridine) having a narrow molecular weight distribution by living polymerization using potassium diphenylmethane (K-DPM) as initiator, adding sodium tetraphenylborate (NaBPh4) to replace the counter cation with a sodium ion (Na+) and adding n-hexylisocyanate and performing polymerization and a polymerization method thereof. According to the present invention, it is possible to control the molecular weight and the structure of each block of the copolymer. Therefore, coil-rod type amphiphilic block copolymers having a variety of structures can be obtained. The resultant block copolymer is a useful optical polymer material.

  • Publication number: 20020165333
    Abstract: The present invention relates to polyisocyanates having various functional groups and a preparing method thereof. More particularly, the present invention is to prepare polyisocyantes by living anion polymerization under suitable temperature and pressure enough to protect metal ions to prevent from the formation of trimer of the isocyanate through depolymerization and thus provide polyisocyanates having alkyl, silyl, siloxane and carbamate groups with desirable molecular weight, molecular weight distribution and improved physical properties.
