Grafting of Methyl Methacrylate onto Gelatin Initiated by Tri-Butylborane—2,5-Di-Tert-Butyl-<i>p</i>-Benzoquinone System

Graft gelatin and poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymers were synthesized in the presence of the tributylborane—2,5-di-tert-butyl-<i>p</i>-benzoquinone (2,5-DTBQ) system. The molecular weight parameters and morphology of the polymer indicate that it has a cross-linked structure. Obtained d...

description Graft gelatin and poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymers were synthesized in the presence of the tributylborane—2,5-di-tert-butyl-<i>p</i>-benzoquinone (2,5-DTBQ) system. The molecular weight parameters and morphology of the polymer indicate that it has a cross-linked structure. Obtained data confirm the simultaneous formation of a copolymer in two ways: “grafting from” and “grafting to”. It leads to the cross-linked structure of a copolymer. This structure was not obtained for copolymers synthesized in the presence of other initiating systems: azobisisobutyronitrile; tributylborane; azobisisobutyronitrile and tributylborane; azobisisobutyronitrile, tributylborane, and 2,5-di-tert-butyl-<i>p</i>-benzoquinone. In these cases, the possibility of the formation of the copolymer, simultaneously in two ways, was excluded. Graft gelatin and poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymers synthesized in the presence of the tributylborane—2,5-di-tert-butyl-<i>p</i>-benzoquinone system are promising in terms of their use in scaffold technologies due to the three-dimensional mesh structure, providing a high regenerative potential of materials.
