The use of controlled radical techniques to form polymer architectures suitable for use as Gear Oil Viscosity Modifiers
This project is concerned with the synthesis of Viscosity Modifiers (VMs) for use in gear box oils. The use of amines as precursors for initiators is also of interest due to their dispersant properties. Atom transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP) was used to prepare statistical copolymers of n-Butyl...
