Abstract:
A polymer composition consisting essentially of polycyclic repeating units wherein at least a portion of said repeating units are represented by the formula: wherein m represents an integer from 0 to 5; R1 to R3 represents hydrogen, substituted and unsubstituted linear and branched C1-C10 alkyl, linear and branched C1-C10 haloalkyl, substituted and unsubstituted linear and branched C2-C10 alkenyl, linear and branched C2-C10 haloalkenyl, substituted and unsubstituted linear and branched C2-C10 alkynyl, substituted and unsubstituted C4-C12 cycloalkyl, substituted and unsubstituted C4-C12 halocycloalkyl, substituted and unsubstituted C4-C12 cycloalkenyl, substituted and unsubstituted C4-C12 halocycloalkenyl, substituted and unsubstituted C6-C12 aryl, substituted and unsubstituted C6-C12 haloaryl and substituted and unsubstituted C7-C24 aralkyl, R1 and R2 can be taken together to represent a C1-C10 alkylidenyl group, â€”(CH2)nC(O)NH2, â€”(CH2)nC(O)Cl, â€”(CH2)nC(O)OR5, â€”(CH2)nâ€”C(O)OR5, â€”(CH2)nâ€”OR5, â€”(CH2)nâ€”OC(O)R5, â€”(CH2)nâ€”C(O)R5, â€”(CH2)nSiR5, â€”(CH2)nSi(OR5)3, â€”(CH2)nC(O)OR6, and the group: wherein n independently represents an integer from 0 to 10 and R5 independently represents hydrogen, linear and branched C1-C10 alkyl, linear and branched, C2-C10 alkenyl, linear and branched C2-C10 alkynyl, C5-C12 cycloalkyl, C6-C14 aryl, and C7-C24 aralkyl; R6 represents a radical selected from â€”C(CH3)3, â€”Si(CH3)3, â€”CH(R7)OCH2CH3, â€”CH(R7)OC(CH3)3 dicyclopropylmethyl, dimethylcyclopropylmethyl, or the following cyclic groups: wherein R7 represents hydrogen or a linear or branched (C1-C5) alkyl group.
