This thesis begins with the description of the preparation of thirteen dithioesters (of the form Z- (C=S)-S-R) which were characterized via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV). The dithioesters were then used as reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) mediating agents in the bulk polymerization of styrene, in order to observe differences in the kinetic behaviour of the polymerizations and, as a result, the efficiencies of the dithioesters in mediating the polymerizations. 2006-11-01T05:49:36Z 2010-06-01T09:03:19Z 2006-11-01T05:49:36Z 2010-06-01T09:03:19Z 2005-12 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/2992 en University of Stellenbosch 1201293 bytes application/pdf application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch
