Abstract
A new method to prepare ionomers bearing terminal ionic groups has been developed by modification of different hydroxyl terminated oligomers and using vinyl phosphonic acid as reagent. The different oligomers have been characterized by NMR, MALDI-TOF, SAXS, SEM-EDX, thermal analysis and their ionic crosslinking was achieved using different cations. Characterization of the network was performed and proved that an efficacious crosslinking was reached depending on the nature of the cations.
