Patent number: 7001978
Abstract: Polymers of the formula wherein x is 0 or 1, R1-4 are alkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, or alkylaryl groups, X1-4 are halogens, a?, b?, c?, and d? are 0–4, UE is an unsaturated ester group, e, f, g, and h are 0–4, at least one of e, f, g, and h is ?1 in at least some monomers, SE is a saturated ester group, i, j, k, and m are 0–4, at least one of i, j, k, and m is ?1 in at least some monomers, a?+e+i?4, b?+f+j?4, c?+g+k?4, d?+h+m?4, RX represents the total number of haloalkyl groups in the polymer, the ratio of UE groups to SE groups to RX groups in the polymer is ??:??:?? wherein ?? is from about 1 to about 99.99, wherein ?? is from about 0.01 to about 99, wherein ?? is from 0 to about 50, and wherein ??+??+??=100.
