Optical Properties of Poly(Propylene Carbonate) which Contains C 60 (OH) n Structure in the End of Polymer Chain.

Poly(propylene carbonate) which contains C 60 (OH) n structure in the end of polymer chain was synthesized by copolymerization of propylene oxide and CO 2 with Et 2 Zn-C 60 (OH) n catalytic system. Emission and absorption spectra of the product polymer were determined and discussed. An emission band with a few peaks in UV-region were seen in the emission spectrum. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
