A multi-dimensional copolymer array of a plurality of copolymers, polymerized from at least two independently variable sets of monomers, wherein the polymerization is characterized by:
(a) selecting a first homologously varying series of monomers with non-varying polymerizable functional groups;
(b) selecting at least one additional homologously varying series of different monomers having non-varying polymerizable functional groups that are reactive with the polymerizable functional groups of the first series of monomers to form copolymers; and
(c) separately reacting a plurality of monomers from the first monomer series with a plurality of monomers from each of the additional monomer series to form the plurality of copolymers;
wherein the homologous variations of the monomer series are selected to determine the effect of independently varying at least two different structural features of the copolymer on at least one end-use property of the copolymer.
Methods for determining the effect of independently varying at least two different structural features of a copolymer and at least one end-use property of the copolymer are also disclosed, in which at least one end-use property of each copolymer of the plurality of copolymers is measured and the variations in each end-use property measured for each of the copolymers is compared as a function of the homologous variation within the monomer series from which the copolymers were polymerized to determine any relationship between the homologous variations and the end-use property variations among the copolymers. The method is useful for identifying members of a plurality of copolymers having useful properties for specific end-uses.
一种由多个共聚物组成的多维共聚物阵列,由至少两组独立可变的单体聚合而成,其中聚合的特征在于:
(a) 选择具有不可变聚合官能团的第一组同源可变单体;
(b) 选择至少另外一个同源变化系列的不同单体,这些单体具有不可变的可聚合官 能团,可与第一系列单体的可聚合官能团反应形成共聚物;以及
(c) 分别使来自第一单体系列的多种单体与来自每个附加单体系列的多种单体反应,以形成多种共聚物;
其中,选择单体系列的同源变化是为了确定独立改变共聚物的至少两种不同结构特征对共聚物的至少一种最终使用性能的影响。
还公开了确定独立改变共聚物的至少两种不同结构特征和共聚物的至少一种最终使用特性的影响的方法,其中测量了多种共聚物中每种共聚物的至少一种最终使用特性,并将每种共聚物的每种最终使用特性的变化作为聚合共聚物的单体系列内同源变化的函数进行比较,以确定同源变化和共聚物之间最终使用特性变化之间的任何关系。该方法可用于确定多种共聚物中对特定最终用途具有有用特性的成员。
