摘要
An easily obtained parameter for characterizing polymers is the molecular weight distribution (MWD). Polymers with different MWD have different properties. The MWD can be easily influenced with controlled polymerization technologies. Examples of how these methods influence the properties of block and gradient copolymers in wetting and dispersing additives are discussed. These wetting and dispersing additives are used to make solvent-borne paints and aqueous pigment concentrates. An advantage of modulation of the MWD is the ability to fine tune-specific properties, such as the compatibility or the wetting activity of the polymer. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
