Abstract

A laboratory experiment that uses proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) to investigate the transformation of monomer into polymer is described. The synthesis of polystyrene was conducted through nitroxide-mediated polymerization while GPC and NMR were used to analyze reaction-mixture aliquots. The exercise provides students with better understanding of controlled radical polymerization methods.
