Popis: International audience; Ti[O(CH2)4OCHCH2]4, used for the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of -caprolactone, was synthesized through the ester-exchange reaction of titanium n-propoxide and 1,4-butanediol vinyl ether, and its chemical structure was confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The mechanism and kinetics of Ti[O(CH2)4OCHCH2]4-initiated bulk polymerization of -caprolactone were investigated. The results demonstrate that Ti[O (CH2)4OCHCH2]4-initiated polymerization of -caprolactone proceeds through the coordination-insertion mechanism, and all the four alkoxide arms in Ti[O (CH2)4OCHCH2]4 share a similar activity in initiating ROP of -caprolactone. The polymerization process can be well predicted by the obtained kinetic parameters, and the activation energy is 106 KJ/mol. Then, the rheological method was employed to investigate the feasibility of producing the crosslinked poly(-caprolactone)-poly (n-butyl acrylate) network by using Ti[O(CH2)4OCHCH2]4 as the ROP initiator. The tensile test demonstrates that the in situ generated crosslinked PCL-PBA network in PMMA matrix provides the possibility of ameliorating the tensile properties of PMMA
