Bis-PMMA/Polybutyl Acrylate Copolymer is a nitroxide-endcapped triblock copolymer of Butyl Acrylate and Methyl Methacrylate. It is prepared by nitroxide-mediated controlled radical polymerization, wherein a difunctional initiator is used to first prepare
Copolymers of n-butyl acrylate/methyl methacrylate (BA/MMA) with certain compositions were proposed as self-healing materials due to “key-and-lock” interchain interactions of alternating sequences[1].
