Synthesis of triblock copolymers from glycolysed poly(ethylene terephthalate) by living radical polymerization

Résumé

Valorization of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) waste has been achieved using glycolysis. The resulting diols were employed for the synthesis of triblock copolymers by atom transfer radical polymerization using copper (I) bromide and (1,1,4,7,10,10)-hexamethyltriethylenetetramine as catalyst system. Macroinitiator was obtained after depolymerization of PET waste followed by functionalization of the obtained glycolysate with 2-bromoisobutyrate bromide. Polymerization of styrene (S) and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) has been achieved leading to PS-b-PETG-b-PS and (PS-stat-PGMA)-b-PETG-b-(PS-stat-PGMA) triblock copolymers. Best results were obtained at 100 °C. At this temperature, termination reaction were negligible and the measured number-average molar mass of the product increased linearly with monomer conversion in agreement with the theoretical Mn with low polydispersity products achieved. Polymers were also characterized by 1H NMR. This work presents a original valorization of PET waste as (PS-stat-PGMA)-b-PETG-b-(PS-stat-PGMA) copolymer could be used as heat curable coatings.
