Abstract

A poly(linolenic acid)-g-poly(tert-butyl acrylate) graft copolymer was synthesized from polymeric linolenic acid peroxide possessing peroxide groups in the main chain by free radical polymerization of tert-butyl acrylate. Graft copolymers having structures of poly(linolenic acid)-g-poly(caprolactone)-g-poly(tert-butyl acrylate) were synthesized from polymeric linolenic acid, possessing peroxide groups on the main chain by the combination of free radical polymerization of tert-butyl acrylate and ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone in one-pot. The obtained graft copolymers were characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance, gel permeation chromatography, thermal gravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Furthermore, Au/n-Si diodes were fabricated with and without poly(linolenic acid)-g-poly(caprolactone)-g-poly(tert-butyl acrylate)-4 to form a new interfacial polymeric layer for the purpose of investigating this polymer’s conformity in electronic applications. Some main electrical characteristics of these diodes were investigated using experimental current–voltage measurements in the dark and at room temperature.
