TL;DR: In this paper, a high purity MA-PTHF macromer was obtained by a coupling method which involved the reaction of sodium methacrylate with living PTHF, indicating one vinyl group per molecule.
Abstract: Methacryloyloxyl polytetrahydrofuran (MA-PTHF) macromer was prepared by the coupling method which involved the reaction of sodium methacrylate with living PTHF. The MA-PTHF macromer obtained by this method was shown to be highly pure macromer by a UV spectrometric method, indicating one vinyl group per molecule. The radical polymerization of the macromer was performed to check the polymerizability of the macromer. At a relatively high concentration of the macromer, it was homopolymerized at a high conversion of ca. 90%. Furthermore, the macromer was quantitatively copolymerized with styrene to the copolymer. This quantitative conversion is consistent with the high purity of MA-PTHF macromer obtained.

TL;DR: A colored or colorless nail enamel consists essentially of at least one film forming agent, a resin and a solvent system as discussed by the authors, which can also contain a plasticizing agent and/or a coloring agent.
Abstract: A colored or colorless nail enamel consists essentially of at least one film forming agent, a resin and a solvent system. The enamel can also contain a plasticizing agent and/or a coloring agent. The resin is polytetrahydrofuran having the formula: HO--CH2 --CH2 --CH2 --CH2 --O]n H wherein n is such that the average molecular mass is between 300 and 3,000,000.

TL;DR: In this article, a block copolymer of the CAC type is formed, which exhibits a molecular weight which obeys the rules valid for living polymers, but the growth of polytetrahydrofuran on the transformed centre is not identical to the usual homopolymerization growth.

TL;DR: In this article, a process for homopolymerizing tetrahydrofuran, optionally in an organic solvent, together with acrylic acid anhydride and/or methacrylic acid anh-hydride, with the aid of a catalyst is described.
Abstract: Polytetrahydrofurans containing terminal acrylate or methacrylate groups and having a molecular weight of from 200 to 10,000 and a process for producing such polytetrahydrofurans by homopolymerizing tetrahydrofuran, optionally in an organic solvent, together with acrylic acid anhydride and/or methacrylic acid anhydride and with the aid of a catalyst. The polytetrahydrofuran can be used as rubbers.
