Abstract
The present paper deals essentially with the synthesis of new fluorinated and chlorinated poly(vinylcarbonates). Vinyl carbonates, CH2=CH-O-CO2R (where R=CH2CCl3, CH2CF3, C2H4C6F13 and CD3) were first prepared by reacting vinyl chloroformate with the corresponding alcohols. Their structures were identified by13C NMR. The action of ultraviolet light on these monomers resulted in the corresponding polycarbonates, the refractive indexes and Tg of which were measured. Polycarbonates possess Tg values between those of polyacrylates and polymethacrylates which contain the same substituents.
