Preferred Label : halato-telechelic polymer;
IUPAC definition : Polymer composed of linear macromolecules having ionic or ionizable end-groups.;
Scope note : the term halatopolymer is used for a linear polymer formed by the coupling of halato-telechelic
polymer molecules, for example, for the linear polymer formed by the coupling of carboxylate
end-groups with divalent metal cations.; the term halato-telechelic polymer is used to denote a polymer composed of macromolecules
having stable (long-lived) ionic or ionizable groups, such as carboxylate or quaternary
ammonium groups, as chain ends. it should not be used to describe a polymer composed
of macromolecules having chain ends that are transient intermediates in ionic polymerizations
initiated by difunctional initiators.;
