LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT (METH) ACRYLIC POLYMERS FREE OF SULPHUR-CONTAINING, METALLIC AND HALOGENATED COMPOUNDS AND WITH A LOW DEGREE OF RESIDUAL MONOMERS, PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION THEREOF AND USES THEREOF

摘要

The subject of the disclosure concerns C8 or higher, linear or branched fatty chain (meth)acrylic polymers possibly containing at least one ethylene unsaturation, having a weight average molecular weight Mw of less than 20,000 g/mole, free of sulphur-containing, metallic and halogenated compounds and with a residual monomer content measured by GPC of no more than 10% by weight, preferably no more than 7% by weight. A further subject of the disclosure is the synthesis method and the uses of these polymers.
