Novel functional temperature‐sensitive amphiphilic P‐containing polymers were synthesized by complex‐radical ternary polymerization of vinylphosphonic acid (VPA), styrene (S), and maleic anhydride (MA). Charge transfer complexes (CTCs), complex‐formation constants ( K c ) between acceptor and donor monomer systems and the complexed monomer reactivity ratios were investigated by 1 H‐NMR analysis. Contrary to theoretical predictions, the VPA…S complex is more active as compared to MA…S complex in the ternary system since VPA monomer can form the CTC both with S monomer and strong H‐bonded complex with MA monomer. The terpolymer compositions, characterizations, and structure–property relationships of a series of poly(VPA‐ co ‐S‐ co ‐MA)s were investigated by GPC, FTIR, Raman, 1 H‐NMR, 13 C‐NMR, DEPT‐135, 31 P‐NMR, TGA‐DSC, DMA, XRD, viscometry, and titration. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
