CuAAC click chemistry: a versatile approach towards PVDF-based block copolymers

Abstract

Alkyne/azide end terminated PVDF homopolymers were synthesized via free-radical polymerization using functional benzoyl peroxides as initiators. This approach allows the preparation of PVDF triblock copolymers with various functional blocks (polystyrene, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and poly(tert-butyl acrylate)) and tunable crystallization behavior using copper(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne cyclo-addition.
