The Molecular Structure of SEBS Grafted with Maleic Anhydride through Ultrasound Initiation
The molecular structure of SEBS grafted with maleic anhydride (SEBS-,g,-MAH) through ultrasound initiation was investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). It can be confirmed that the grafting groups mainly exist on the terminus of the ultrasound initiated SEBS-,g,-MAH. However, it was difficult to detailedly confirm the block of the SEBS on which MAH is grafted through characterization of ,1,H-NMR due to the complex structure of the SEBS. Moreover, the temperaturedependent infrared spectra of the ultrasound initiated SEBS-,g,-MAH were also analyzed by the perturbation correlation moving window 2D (PCMW2D) correlation spectroscopy. It could confirm that the broken point existed at the joint between poly(ethylene-,co,-1-butene) (EB block) and polystyrene block (S block). Therefore, the grafting groups were attached to not only the S block but also the EB block. In addition, in order to well understand the aggregation structure of the ultrasound initiated SEBS-,g,-MAH, the possible grafting mechanism and aggregation model of the ultrasound initiated SEBS-,g,-MAH at room temperature were also proposed.
