Film‐formation property of vinylidene chloride‐methyl methacrylate copolymer latex. I. Effect of emulsion‐polymerization process

Changes in minimum film‐formation temperature (MFFT) during storage of latexes prepared from 91:9 wt % vinylidene chloride (VDC)‐methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer mixture by seeded batch and seeded semicontinuous emulsion polymerization were investigated, with attention centered on polymer‐crystallization behavior during storage in the dispersed state. MFFT of latex prepared by the seeded batch process rose to 47 °C, whereas that of latex prepared by seeded semicontinuous process remained below 14 °C with storage at 20 °C for 12 weeks. Infrared absorption of latexes in the dispersed state and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction of powder polymers obtained by lyophilization of fresh and stored latexes both indicated a much greater increase in polymer crystallinity during storage with latex prepared by the seeded batch process than with that prepared by the seeded semicontinuous process. Analysis of the copolymer composition drift calculated from reactivity ratios and ¹H NMR analysis indicated a wider sequence distribution and longer VDC sequences in polymer prepared by the seeded batch process than in polymer prepared by the seeded semicontinuous process. This explained the higher rate of crystallization during storage with latex prepared by the seeded batch process than with that prepared by the seeded semicontinuous process. Rising crystallinity during storage in the dispersed state is believed to have caused the MFFT rise. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 40: 939–947, 2002     

BARRIER PROPERTIES OF VINYLIDENE CHLORIDE COPOLYMERS

The permeability coefficients of a series of copolymers of vinylidene chloride (VDC)with methyl acrylate (MA), butyl acrylate (BA) or vinyl chloride (VC) (as comonomer)to oxygen and carbon dioxide have been measured at 1.0 MPa and 30℃, while those towater vapor have been measured at 30℃ and 100% relative humidity All the copolymersare semicrystalline. VDC/MA copolymers have lower melting temperature compared withVDC/BA copolymers, while that melting temperature of VDC/VC copolymer is higherthan that of VDC/acrylate copolymers with the same VDC content. The barrier propertyof the copolymers is predominantly controlled by crystallite, free volume fraction, andcohesive energy The permeability coefficients of VDC/MA copolymers to oxygen, carbondioxide, and water vapor were successfully correlated with the ratio of free volume tocohesive energy.

Emulsion copolymerization of vinylidene chloride and methyl methacrylate. I. Effects of operating variables on the kinetic behavior

The effects of operating variables on the kinetic behavior of the emulsion copolymerization of vinylidene chloride (VDC) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) were examined at 50 °C with sodium lauryl sulfate as an emulsifier and potassium persulfate as an initiator, respectively. The number of polymer particles produced increased in proportion to the 1.0 power of the initial emulsifier concentration and to the 0.3 power of the initial initiator concentration and decreased with an increasing content of MMA in the initial monomer charge. The rate of copolymerization was proportional to the 0.4 power of the initial emulsifier concentration and to the 0.5 power of the initial initiator concentration and increased with an increasing content of MMA in the initial monomer charge. The molecular weight of copolymer produced decreased drastically with an increasing content of VDC in the initial monomer charge. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Film‐formation property of vinylidene chloride‐methyl methacrylate copolymer latex. II. Effect of latex storage temperature

Changes in the minimum film‐formation temperature (MFFT) of 91:9 wt % vinylidene chloride (VDC)‐methyl methacrylate (MMA) latex prepared by the seeded batch process during storage at 5, 20, and 40 °C were investigated. MFFT of the latex rose the fastest at 20 °C. Infrared absorption of fresh and stored latexes and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction of powder polymers obtained by lyophilization of fresh and stored latexes indicated a much greater increase in polymer crystallinity during latex storage at 20 °C than at 5 and 40 °C. Observed increases in MFFT during latex storage correlated with increases in polymer crystallinity. Infrared absorption of polymer stored at 5–60 °C in the dry state, such as lyophilized polymer and coating film, indicated that a polymer crystallinity increase was greater during storage at higher temperatures. These results showed that crystallization behavior of 91:9 wt% VDC‐MMA copolymer latex differed from that of VDC‐MMA copolymer in the dry state. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of acrylonitrile water solubility on limiting conversion and copolymer composition in suspension polymerization

The effects of acrylonitrile (AN) water solubility on the limiting conversion and copolymer composition of the AN and AN/vinylidene chloride (VDC) suspension polymerization were investigated. It was found that AN dissolved in aqueous phase does not transfer back to oil phase in AN suspension homopolymerization but partially does in AN/VDC suspension copolymerization, and thus the limiting conversion is lowered and decreases with water/oil ratio increasing in both AN and AN/VDC suspension polymerization. For the continuous transport of AN in aqueous phase to oil phase during suspension polymerization, the composition distribution of AN/VDC copolymer prepared by suspension polymerization is narrower than that by bulk polymerization. The calculated composition of AN/VDC suspension copolymer with considering AN water solubility is consistent with the experimental data.     

Design and Control of Copolymer Composition Distribution in Living Radical Polymerization Using Semi‐Batch Feeding Policies: A Model Simulation

Summary: Although controlled/living radical copolymerization has been extensively studied, the control of copolymer composition distribution receives little attention. In this paper, taking RAFT copolymerization as an example, we develop a mathematical model and simulate copolymerization systems with various reactivity ratios. It is demonstrated that through semi‐batch operations with programmed profiles of slow monomer feeding rate, precise control over copolymer composition distribution (uniform and designed gradient distributions) along polymer chain can be achieved. It is also found that the semi‐batch operations have lower rates of polymerization than their batch counterparts. The reason for this difference is analyzed, and the magnitude depends on the reactivity ratios and targeted copolymer composition. The improvement of the semi‐batch rate by distributing a part of the initiator amount to the monomer feeding tank is found to be minor.

Comparison of Vinyl Acetate - Butyl Acrylate Emulsion Copolymerizations Conducted in a Continuous Pulsed Sieve Plate Column Reactor and in a Batch Stirred Tank Reactor

In this work, vinyl acetate/butyl acrylate emulsion copolymerizations carried out in a continuous tubular reactor (pulsed sieve plate column, PSPC) were compared to those conducted in a semibatch stirred tank reactor under similar operational conditions. In order to minimize the compositional drift along the PSPC, reactions were carried out with different numbers (2, 3 and 4) of lateral feed streams of the more reactive monomer (butyl acrylate). For comparison, fed batch reactions were conducted with the same number of intermittent shot additions of butyl acrylate, at the corresponding batch times. Both systems (tubular and semibatch) with distributed feeding of more reactive monomer are able to reduce composition drift thus providing more uniformity in copolymer composition. In addition, the tubular reactor presents much better control of temperature than the tank reactor, which is important to achieve higher productivity.     

Synthesis of large-sized monodisperse polystyrene microspheres by dispersion polymerization with dropwise monomer feeding procedure

Highly monodisperse polystyrene (PS) microspheres in the size range of 3.75–7.09 μm were synthesized by dispersion polymerization with dropwise monomer feeding procedure. The morphology, size, and particle size distribution (PSD) of the PS microspheres obtained by different monomer feeding modes, including batch polymerization and various feeding rates, were investigated. The PSD of particles showed a close dependence on feeding rate. The PS microspheres with low coefficient of variation (CV) values all less than 4.8% obtained by the optimum feeding rates revealed better uniformity than those by batch polymerization (CV values all more than 8.2%). According to the time courses of monomer conversion and particle numbers, the effects of monomer feeding modes on the polymerization reaction of the large-sized PS microspheres were clarified. It is found that the dropwise monomer feeding procedure is promising for the synthesis of large-sized monodisperse PS particles in 3.75–7.09 μm.

Determination of gelation dose of a vinylidene chloride/acrylonitrile copolymer irradiated with gamma-rays by a spectrophotometric technique

The gelation dose of a vinylidene chloride (VDC)/acrylonitrile (AN) random copolymer irradiated with γ-rays in vacuum is first determined by conventional techniques, such as viscometry and solubility. The onset of gelation was determined to be 5.8 Mrad for this copolymer of composition 20% AN/80% VDC. The same gelation dose is also determined by a spectrophotometric method which is based on the recording of u.v.-vis spectra of solutions of this copolymer in THF. The advantages of this new technique for determination of gelation dose over the conventional methods are discussed.     

Preparation and characterization of novel thermal-stable vinylidene chloride–methyl acrylate–glycidyl methacrylate copolymer

A novel copolymer was synthesized by vinylidene chloride (VDC)/methyl acrylate (MA)/glycidyl methacrylate (GMA). The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and ¹H-nuclear magnetic resonance analyses indicated that the copolymer of VDC/MA/GMA (PVMG) was synthesized successfully. The influences of GMA on the molecular weight, melting point, and thermal stability of copolymer were investigated by gel permeation chromatograph, differential scanning calorimeter, thermogravimetric analysis–FTIR, respectively. The copolymerization eliminated the phenomenon of “double melting peaks” for poly(vinylidene chloride), and the melting point was reduced to 165°C. The GMA also enhanced the thermal stability of copolymer, which was proved by the increased decomposition temperature of copolymer. The existence of GMA caused the cross-linking of the copolymer, which contributed to the improvement of barrier performance of PVMG.     

Semicontinuous heterophase copolymerization of styrene and acrylonitrile

The synthesis of styrene‐acrylonitrile copolymers by semicontinuous heterophase polymerization is reported here. The effect of feed composition at a fixed addition rate of monomer mixture on kinetics, particle size, polymer content, and molar masses, was studied. This process permits the synthesis of nanolatexes containing narrow size‐distribution particles with number‐average diameter (D_n) of about 18 nm, polymer content as high as 23 wt %, and copolymer‐to‐surfactant weight ratios between 23 and 25, depending on monomer feeding rate, which are larger than those reported for microemulsion copolymerization of several comonomers. Copolymers with homogeneous composition similar to the feeding monomers composition were obtained thorough the reaction, which is difficult to achieve by batch polymerization. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
