If You Are A Polymer Engineering In A Chemical Company A Custom Would Like To Consult You On Synthesizing A High Molecu 1 (56.41 KiB) Viewed 15 times

If you are a polymer engineering in a chemical company, a custom would like to consult you on synthesizing a high molecular weight poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) (the chemical structure of methyl methacrylate is given below) of number average molecular weight of 100 kg/mol with a polydispersity index mit < 1.15. Can you help them formulate a plan to synthesize Xn such polymer based on what we have discussed in the class? Justify your answer with support and reasoning. (Hint: First, one needs to identify and justify the types of polymerization for the synthesis from step-growth, free-radical, or controlled free-radical polymerization. Second, one needs to formulate a plan for the polymerization with necessary details including the reaction conditions, etc.) O H2C OCH3 CH3 Chemical structure of methyl methacrylate with molecular weight Mo = 100 g/mol.
