Dielectric relaxations of poly(2-norbornyl methacrylate) and poly(3-methyl-2-norbornyl methacrylate)

Abstract
Dielectric behaviour of poly(2-norbornyl methacrylate) (P2NBM) and poly(3-methyl-2-norbornyl methacrylate) (P3M2NBM) was studied. The effect of the methyl substituent on the norbornyl ring is to decrease the temperature of the dynamic glass transition about 50 K. Moreover, weak secondary relaxations are observed in the two polymers under study. The secondary process of P3M2NBM has been conveniently analysed in terms of the empirical Fuoss-Kirkwood (F-K) equation. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
