Radical copolymerization of sulfur dioxide and vinyl chloride (VC) has been studied by the comparison of the composition of copolymers obtaining from different reaction conditions, i.e., reaction temperatures, feed compositions, and total monomer concentrations. The composition of VC in copolymer is independent of comonomer composition except at high concentration of VC in feed; it increases with increasing reaction temperature or decreasing total monomer concentration. At lower temperature, the composition of copolymer becomes independent of total monomer concentration. The overall rate of polymerization is proportional to [VC]1,7 and [SO2]0.5. These results were compared with those obtained in our previous study on the SO2-styrene copolymerization. A propagation mechanism for radical copolymerization of SO2 and VC is also proposed. 相似文献
Gamma radiation induced polymerization of vinyl chloride (VC) and copolymerization of vinyl chloride (VC)-vinyl acetate (VAc) in Taiwan cedars have been investigated at low temperatures. The polymerization-rate of VC and the copolymerization-rate of VC-VAc system in wood were found to be proportional to the n powers of the dose-rate, where n became close to the value of 1 as the polymerization temperature being lowered below 0°C. The oxygen in air was recognized to induce the delay of the induction period due to its retardation on the polymerization. The apparent activation energies of VC and VC-VAc for the polymerization and the copolymerization in wood were determined by use of the Arrhenius plotting as 4.0 Kcal/mole and 3.4 Kcal/mole respectively at the temperature-range of —15°C~20°C. The degree of polymerization of VC was greatly affected by the polymerization temperature, although it was observed to be independent on the total gamma dose within 1 Mrad and the kinds of wood. No graft reaction of PVC polymer and PVC-PVAc copolymer onto the wood cellulose was found, while low graft percentage of about 3% being obtained at 20° C in the case of using swelling agents. However, this value was found to be decreased to 0.1% at the temperature of —15°C. Based on the above-mentioned experimental results, the radiation induced low temperature polymerization of VC or copolymerization of VC-VAc system in Taiwan produced cedars are considered to proceed with radical polymerization mechanism. 相似文献
The rate of copolymerization of vinyl chloride (VC) with sulfur dioxide and the composition of the poly (vinyl chloride sulfone) formed have been measured for comonomer liquid mixtures with XVC = 0.1 to 1.0 and over the temperature range -95 to +46°C. Polymerization was initiated by γ-irradiation (-95 to +46°C) and with the t-butyl hydroperoxide/SO2/methanol redox system (-95 to -18°C). The copolymerization rates and copolymer compositions indicated two distinct temperature regions, with a change in mechanism around 0°C. For radiation initiation below 0°C, the rate versus comonomer composition relationship showed a maximum at an xVC value which increased with increasing temperature. Above 0°C, the rate decreased with increasing temperature and was greatly retarded by SO2. No high molecular weight copolymer or VC homopolymer was formed on irradiation of comonomer mixtures above ~55°C. 相似文献
Abstract Radical copolymerization kinetics of vinyl chloride (VC) and vinyl bromide (VB) lead to the following reactivity ratios rVC=0.825 rVB=1.05 Vinyl bromide acts as a chain transfer agent, more powerful than vinyl chloride, the transfer constant for VC radicals being 8.5 × 10?3 at 40° C. Neither thermal nor ionic degrad-ation produce controlled distribution of short diene sequences in the copolymer. In the ionic process initiated with LiCl or LiBr in dimethylformamide solution, substitution of halogen atoms as well as acid elimination takes place. 相似文献
The reactions of three types of group 4 metal olefin polymerization catalysts, (C(5)R(5))(2)ZrX(2)/activator, (C(5)Me(5))TiX(3)/MAO (MAO = methylalumoxane), and (C(5)Me(4)SiMe(2)N(t)Bu)MX(2)/activator (M = Ti, Zr), with vinyl chloride (VC) and VC/propylene mixtures have been investigated. Two general pathways are observed: (i) radical polymerization of VC initiated by radicals derived from the catalyst and (ii) net 1,2 VC insertion into L(n)MR(+) species followed by beta-Cl elimination. rac-(EBI)ZrMe(mu-Me)B(C(6)F(5))(3) (EBI = 1,2-ethylenebis(indenyl)) reacts with 2 equiv of VC to yield oligopropylene, rac-(EBI)ZrCl(2), and B(C(6)F(5))(3). This reaction proceeds by net 1,2 VC insertion into rac-(EBI)ZrMe(+) followed by fast beta-Cl elimination to yield [rac-(EBI)ZrCl][MeB(C(6)F(5))(3)] and propylene. Methylation of rac-(EBI)ZrCl(+) by MeB(C(6)F(5))(3)(-) enables a second VC insertion/beta-Cl elimination to occur. The evolved propylene is oligomerized by rac-(EBI)ZrR(+) as it is formed. At high Al/Zr ratios, rac-(EBI)ZrMe(2)/MAO catalytically converts VC to oligopropylene by 1,2 VC insertion into rac-(EBI)ZrMe(+), beta-Cl elimination, and realkylation of rac-(EBI)ZrCl(+) by MAO; this process is stoichiometric in Al-Me groups. The evolved propylene is oligomerized by rac-(EBI)ZrR(+). Oligopropylene end group analysis shows that the predominant chain transfer mechanism is VC insertion/beta-Cl elimination/realkylation. In the presence of trace levels of O(2), rac-(EBI)ZrMe(2)/MAO polymerizes VC to poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) by a radical mechanism initiated by radicals generated by autoxidation of Zr-R and/or Al-R species. CpTiX(3)/MAO (Cp = C(5)Me(5); X = OMe, Cl) initiates radical polymerization of VC in CH(2)Cl(2) solvent at low Al/Ti ratios under anaerobic conditions; in this case, the source of initiating radicals is unknown. Radical VC polymerization can be identified by the presence of terminal and internal allylic chloride units and other "radical defects" in the PVC which arise from the characteristic chemistry of PCH(2)CHCl(*) macroradicals. However, this test must be used with caution, since the defect units can be consumed by postpolymerization reactions with MAO. (C(5)Me(4)SiMe(2)N(t)Bu)MMe(2)/[Ph(3)C]][B(C(6)F(5))(4)] catalysts (M = Ti, Zr) react with VC by net 1,2 insertion/beta-Cl elimination, yielding [(C(5)Me(4)SiMe(2)N(t)Bu)MCl][B(C(6)F(5))(4)] species which can be trapped as (C(5)Me(4)SiMe(2)N(t)Bu)MCl(2) by addition of a chloride source. The reaction of rac-(EBI)ZrMe(2)/MAO or [(C(5)Me(4)SiMe(2)N(t)Bu)ZrMe][B(C(6)F(5))(4)] with propylene/VC mixtures yields polypropylene containing both allylic and vinylidene unsaturated chain ends rather than strictly vinylidene chain ends, as observed in propylene homopolymerization. These results show that the VC insertion of L(n)M(CH(2)CHMe)(n)R(+) species is also followed by beta-Cl elimination, which terminates chain growth and precludes propylene/VC copolymerization. Termination of chain growth by beta-Cl elimination is the most significant obstacle to metal-catalyzed insertion polymerization/copolymerization of VC. 相似文献
Since the advent of Ziegler-Natta polymerization of ethylene, attempts have been made to extend coordination polymerization to commercially important monomers with polar functionality. In this study we examined the copolymerization of perdeuterated vinyl chloride (VC) and perdeuterated vinyl acetate (VA) with ethylene using a tridentate Fe(II) dichloride pyridine diimine metal catalyst. The resulting ethylene oligomers were examined by GC/MS and 2H NMR spectroscopy. It was shown that VC was inserted once for every approximately 180 ethylene monomers and VA was inserted once for every approximately 350 ethylene monomers. VC and VA behave as comonomers for coordination/insertion polymerizations with ethylene. However, we find that insertion with either monomer leads to termination of the growing chain via beta-elimination processes. The deuterium atoms are exclusively located at the olefin terminus for each of the monomers. 相似文献
Investigations in the title areas within the past ten years are summarized and critiqued. The polymerizations studied were performed by conventional free-radical methods. A new mechanism, not yet confirmed, is suggested to explain a reported enhancement in the chloromethyl branch concentration of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) prepared at high conversions of monomer. This mechanism involves an intramolecular 1,5 hydrogen shift in a 1,3,5,6-tetrachlorohexyl radical. Evidence showing that most of the internal double bonds in PVC are not formed via intermolecular H abstraction from internal monomer units is tentatively rationalized, in part, by hydrogen transfer via at least one cyclic transition state containing more than eight members. The absence of free chlorine atoms from polymerizations of vinyl chloride (VC) is reaffirmed, and the copolymerization of VC with the chloroallylic chain ends of PVC is argued to be insignificant. New information in the literature does not invalidate the currently accepted mechanism of vinyl chloride polymerization. 相似文献
A simple and elegant approach to fabricate anisotropic P(VC‐co‐AAEM)/PS nanoparticles with controllable morphologies via emulsifier‐free seeded emulsion polymerization is presented. Non‐cross‐linked P(VC‐co‐AAEM) seeds with hydrophilic surface are first synthesized through copolymerization of vinyl chloride (VC) and acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate (AAEM), which are used to prepare P(VC‐co‐AAEM)/PS NPs with multiple bulges by SEP of styrene. Electron microscopy observation indicates that the content of AAEM in seeds is crucial to control the phase separation and morphology of the composite NPs. Moreover, the thermodynamic immiscibility between PVC and PS is the driving force for the formation of PS bulges onto the P(VC‐co‐AAEM) seeds. The resultant anisotropic NPs with non‐cross‐linked feature may promisingly serve as compatibilizers for further polymer processing.
Radical copolymerization of 2,2-diallyl-1,1,3,3-tetraethylguanidinium chloride with methyl methacrylate and allyl methacrylate in the bulk and methanol solution in the presence of azobis-isobutyric acid dinitryle at 70–90°C has been studied. Copolymerization of 2,2-diallyl-1,1,3,3-tetraethylguanidinium chloride with methyl methacrylate or allyl methacrylate in the bulk proceeds with formation of random copolymers enriched in methacrylate units; in the copolymerization of 2,2-diallyl-1,1,3,3-tetraethylguanidiny chloride with methyl methacrylate in methanol, the copolymerization constants of the monomers become close. The kinetic parameters of the reaction have been studied, the relative activities of the monomers have been determined. It has been found that 2,2-diallyl-1,1,3,3-tetraethylguanidinium chloride is copolymerized with allyl methacrylate or methylmethacrylate to form pyrrolidinium structures in the cyclolinear polymer chain. At high degrees of conversion of the copolymerization of 2,2-diallyl-1,1,3,3-tetraethylguanidinium chloride with allyl methacrylate, the viscosity increases and the side polymer chains are crosslinked by “allyl bonds” to form insoluble copolymers, swelling in benzene and DMSO. 相似文献
Abstract The monomer reactivity ratios for vinyl acetate (VAc)-allilidene diacetate (ADA) copolymerization have never been obtained. The composition of VAc-ADA copolymers was determined by NMR spectroscopy, measuring CH protons corresponding to ADA at 3.1τ and VAc at 5.1τ. The monomer reactivity ratios were evaluated; r1 = 1.34 ± 0.05 and r2 = 0.48 ± 0.03, where M1 = ADA and M2 = VAc. From these values the Q and e values for ADA were calculated: Q = 0.047 and e = 0.44 by taking Q = 0.026 and e = ?0.22 for VAc. The H value [1] for copolymerization of ADA, VAc, and vinyl chloride (VC) is 0.87. 相似文献
