Abstract

In the present work, the copolymerization of ε-caprolactone with tetrahydrofyran using a proton exchanged Montmorillonite clay as initiator is reported. The effects of the amounts of Mag-H and the temperature on the synthesis of poly(ε-caprolactone-co-tetrahydrofuran) were studied. The copolymer obtained was characterized by 1H-NMR spectroscopy.
