Poly(epichlorohydrin‐ g ‐styrene) and poly (epichlorohydrin‐ g ‐methyl methacrylate) graft copolymers were synthesized by a combination of cationic and photoinitiated free‐radical polymerization. For this purpose, first, epichlorohydrin was polymerized with tetrafluoroboric acid (HBF 4 ) via a cationic ring‐opening mechanism, and, then, polyepichlorohydrin (PECH) was reacted ethyl‐hydroxymethyl dithio sodium carbamate to obtain a macrophotoinitiator. PECH, possessing photolabile thiuram disulfide groups, was used in the photoinduced polymerization of styrene or methyl methacrylate to yield the graft copolymers. The graft copolymers were characterized by 1 H‐NMR spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and gel permeation chromatography. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008
