Abstract
Abstract Copolymers of ethyl acrylate (M 1 ) and n-butyl methacrylate (M 2 ) were prepared by benzoyl peroxide initiation in solution at 60° and copolymer compositions estimated by [ 13 C]-NMR spectroscopy. The kinetic behaviour is approximately ideal with r 1 = 1/ r 2 = 0.47. Relaxation times T 1 were determined for six of the carbons in M 2 units and one in the M 1 units; they range from 0.07 to 1.65 sec.
