Synthesis of this suite of polymers proceeded as expected, with final DPs and incorporation ratios closely matching the targeted DP and feed ratio when conducted in dioxane (Table ). Successful incorporation and molar ratio of constituent monomers was confirmed using 1 H NMR spectroscopy (Figures ). DP and incorporation ratios of poly(GMA-co-PEGMA) samples were less consistent compared to their MEMA counterparts, attributed to the inherent dispersity of PEGMA macromonomers skewing the actual molar amount added to reactions. After successfully synthesizing the desired copolymers, we moved on to assess their gelation kinetics.
