Deuterated Poly(styrene-d8), α-(isopropyl-d7)-terminated

Deuterated Poly(styrene-d8), α-(isopropyl-d7)-terminated is a specialized polymer where the hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. In this particular polymer, the polystyrene backbone (styrene-d8) is deuterated, meaning all eight hydrogen atoms on the aromatic ring of the styrene monomer are replaced with deuterium. Additionally, the polymer is terminated with an isopropyl group where the hydrogen atoms are also replaced with deuterium (isopropyl-d7). This type of deuterated polymer is often used in research and industrial applications where precise control over molecular interactions and properties is needed.
