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.
