The Synthesis of Water-Soluble PHEMA via ARGET ATRP in Protic Media

2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate has been polymerized in methanol using activators regenerated by electron transfer (ARGET) atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), to produce water-soluble poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA). The various parameters that determine control ofthe living polymeriz...
