(A) Reaction scheme for the RAFT copolymerization of LA and BiBOEA. (B) Evolution of SEC traces over the course of the RAFT copolymerization of LA and BiBOEA showing time points taken between 0 and 120 min. (C) Pseudo-first order kinetic plot for conversions of both LA and BiBOEA during the RAFT copolymerization. (D) Plot of Mn,SEC versus total monomer conversion showing good agreement with Mn,theory while maintaining relatively controlled Đ. (E) SEC traces of P(LA-co-BiBOEA) for varying target DPs of 200–1000 and obtained DPs of 100–430.
