DIALKYL ALKOXY PHENYL SULFONIUM SALT CATIONIC INITIATORS

摘要

This invention relates to C14 to C20 alkoxy monophenyl sulfonium salt initiators having formula (I), wherein R is C14 to C20 alkyl; R1 and R2 are each independently C4 to C20 alkyl and X- is a non-basic, non-nucleophilic anion, which initiators are employed in the polymerization of mono- and poly- functional glycidyl ethers, alpha-olefin oxides and vinyl monomers or oligomers.
