PnAMAs exhibit a local nanophase separation associated with intriguing chain dynamics ( Macromol. Chem. Phys . 2005 , 206 , 142). PnAMAs of high molar mass, as determined by SEC and MHKS parameters, were investigated in the melt with a recently‐developed solid‐state NMR method (NOE with dipolar filter; Solid State Nucl. Magn. Res . 2005 , 28 , 160). The correlation times are assigned to the relaxation of the alkyl nanodomains, as coupled motions of the main chain and hindered local modes in the side chain. Comparison with poly( n ‐alkyl acrylates) shows a higher anisotropy of the main chain motions and a better organized local nanophase separation in PnAMAs.
