Abstract

Copolymers based on dicyclopentadiene and maleic anhydride have been grafted with poly-vinylcarbazole chains using the ATRP technique. We have found the appropriate conditions for performing the grafting, and the resulting conversions have been established. All grafted copolymers have been characterized from the structural point of view, as well as by measuring their improved thermal properties.
