Abstract
Nowadays, the study of metallopolymers is one of the fastest growing areas of polymer science. Metallopolymers have great potential for application in multiple technological and various biomedical processes. The macromolecules with the possibility of varying the number and type of metal ions along the entire length of the polymer chain are of particular interest. In this regard, this study presents results on two successfully synthesized homopolymers, random and block copolymers based on PMMA, containing ferrocene and terpyridine moieties in the side chain. Different architectures of copolymers may attribute interesting properties when creating complexes with various metal ions. A detailed hydrodynamic study of these structures was carried out, the consistency of hydrodynamic data was established using the concept of a hydrodynamic invariant, the absolute values of the molar masses of the studied objects were calculated, and the conformational parameters of macromolecules were determined. Using the Fixman-Stockmayer theory, the equilibrium rigidities of the studied systems were calculated and the relationship between the chemical structure and conformational characteristics was established. The studied copolymers can be attributed to the class of flexible-chain macromolecules. An increase in the equilibrium rigidity value with an increase of the side chain, which is characteristic of comb-shaped polymers, was determined.
