Abstract
Well-defined amphiphilic and functional copolymers and networks based on cyclic ethers, oxazolines and aziridines were prepared. The synthesis of copolymers with controlled hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance, composition and structure was achieved using sequential living cationic polymerization, copolymerization of macromonomers, functionalization of conventional polymers and following grafting or crosslinking by telechelic polymers. Properties, displaying the amphiphilic nature of the copolymers were examined: solubility, swelling in water and hydrocarbons. Anion-exchange and sorption capacity towards metal ions of the copolymers bearing quatemary ammonium groups were evaluated. Environmentally responsive conformational changes, aggregation and microphase separation were observed for some of the products.
