It was shown that copolymerization under the chosen conditions proceeded through intramolecular fragmentation with the formation of gamma-lactone units. Side-chain fragmentation of t-BVE-MA and t-BVE-CA copolymers also was confirmed by TGA and DSC analysis.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMaleic AnhydrideCharge Transfer ComplexesRadical PolymerizationStructure-property RelationsCopolymerizationFTIRDifferential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)Article10.1002/app.235771003245524632-s2.0-33645996393Q2WOS:000236150300096Q2
