Abstract
Copolymerization of vinyl and divinyl monomer is a typical method for preparing a network polymer. A multiple network structure, in which one network entangles with another, is supposed to be produced when a network polymer is swollen in the monomer mixture and then polymerization of absorbed monomer is carried out so as to superpose the second network on the first. Viscoelastic properties and degree of swelling in solvents were investigated for composite polymers prepared from styrene and divinylbenzene. Results were consistent with presumed characteristics of multiple network structures.
