          <dc:description>Scalable methods of producing functional materials is of importance. Herein, we report the use of free radical copolymerisation of ω-unsaturated methacrylic macromonomers, as derived from catalytic chain transfer polymerisation (CCTP), with acrylic monomers in solution leading to block copolymers by varying the nature of the macromonomer. We demonstrate the effect that varying the molecular weight and ester side chain length of macromonomer from CCTP, has on the polymerisation leading to either graft or diblock copolymers. DOSY NMR, MALDI-ToF/ToF MS has allowed for the exploration of the extent to which varying the concentration of macromonomer has on the products formed. Importantly, during the successful synthesis of acrylic and methacrylic diblock copolymers with broad dispersities of each block, full consumption of the macromonomers was observed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;--&gt; Folder Structure:  The files are organised by technique used for the characterisation of the final products --&gt; Software needed to open files according to technique used: for NMR files: ACD-LABS for MALDI-ToF files: Bruker Data Analysis for Gas Chromatography files: Origin for Oxygen Probe files: Origin for GPC files: Agilent GPC --&gt; Protocols, parameters, details of equipment used: All spectra were recorded on Bruker DPX-300, DPX-400 and DPX-500 MHz spectrometers using deuterated chloroform (CDCl3) purchased from Aldrich. Chemical shifts are given in ppm downfield from the internal standard tetramethylsilane. All chromatography measurements were conducted using an Agilent 390-LC MDS instrument equipped with a differential refractive index (DRI) and dual wavelength UV detectors. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry was conducted by the use of a Bruker Daltonics Ultra flex II MALDI-ToF-MS mass spectrometer. Gas chromatography-flame ionisation detection (GC-FID) was performed on a Shimadzu GC-2014 equipped with a Shimadzu AO20i autosampler. Further details of parameters and equipment used can be found in the attached readme file.</dc:description>
