Bromine-containing copolymers are prepared by copolymerising a vinyl aromatic monomer, such as styrene, and a cyclic polyene monomer, such as cyclododecatriene (CDT) to form copolymerization product, and subsequently brominating the copolymerization product. Also disclosed is a method of preparing bromine-containing copolymers by copolymerising a vinyl aromatic monomer, such as styrene and a brominated unsaturated cyclic monomer such as tetrabromocyclododecene. |
