Evaluation of K⊖ from [η]-M-data of binary and ternary polymer systems

Unperturbed dimensions of flexible linear macromolecules can be obtained from [η]-M-data in any solvent, good or poor, single or mixed. Usually K_θ is estimated by a relationship between [η]/M_W^0.5 and M_w^0.5 first proposed by Burchard and by Stockmayer and Fixman. But, it is well-known that the Burchard-Stockmayer-Fixman-plot shows downward curvature, especially for good solvent systems. Various efforts have been made to achieve relations with better linearity. One of the first was the semi-empirical relation between ([η]/M_w^0.5)^0.5 and M_w/[η] by Berry. Predicting a relationship of the excluded volume parameter z to the viscosity expansion factor by α⁵_η instead of α⁵_η Tanaka obtains that ([η]/M_w^0.5)^5/3 is linear in M_w^0.5. By allowing for the dependence of the viscometric interaction parameter B, which is correlated to the second virial coefficient A₂, on molar mass, Gavara, Campos and Figueruelo predict a linear dependence of [η]/M_w^0.5 against A₂.M_w^0.5. It is not our intention here to discuss the validity of these theories, but to compare them with experimental data.     

Hydrodynamic invariant of polymer molecules

The theories of hydrodynamic properties of macromolecules in solution leading to an invariant relationship between the values of the intrinsic viscosity, [η], the molecular weight, M, and the translational friction coefficient of the molecule, f, have been considered. The review of experimental data comprising as much as about 2000 fractions of various polymers suggests that for all flexible-chain and moderately rigid-chain molecules the hydrodynamic parameter A₀ = kη₀(M[η]/100)^1/3f^?1 is actually an invariant independent of the chain length and the thermodynamic strength of the solvent and for moderately polydisperse samples also independent of the degree of their polydispersity. For polymers with very rigid chains the parameter A₀ has a high value over the experimentally investigated range of M. These conclusions make it possible to recommend the use of the following average experimental values of the invariant A₀ for the determination of M of polymers from the values of [η] and f: for flexible-chain and synthetic polymers with moderately high chain rigidity (3.2 ± 0.2) · 10^?10, for polymers with high chain rigidity (3.7 ± 0.4) · 10^?10, and for cellulose derivatives and other polysaccharides with molecular dispersity of nonelectrolyte solutions (3.30 ± 0.30) · 10^?10 erg deg^?1 mol^?1/3. The fact that the experimental value of A₀ = 3.2 · 10^?10 does not coincide with the value of A_∞ = 3.8 · 10^?10 erg deg^?1 mol^?1/3 predicted by the theories of translational friction and viscosity of macromolecules implies that the theoretical values of P_∞ = 5.11 and Φ_∞ = 2.8 · 10²³ mol^?1 are mutually incompatible and these theories require further development.     

Olefin copolymerization with metallocene catalysts. II. Kinetics,cocatalyst, and additives

The kinetics of ethylene/propylene copolymerization catalyzed by (ethylene bis (indeyl)-ZrCI₂/methylaluminoxane) has been investigated. Radiolabeling found about 80% of the Zr to be catalytically active. The estimates for rate constants at 50°C are k₁₁ = 1104 (M_s)^?1, k₁₂ = 430 (M_s)^?1, k₂₂ = 396 (M_s)^?1,k₂₁ = 1020 (M_s)^?1, and k^A_tr,1 + k^A_tr.2 = 1.9 × 10^?3 s^?1. Substitution of trimethylaluminum for methylaluminoxane resulted in proportionate decrease in polymerization rate. The molecular weight of the copolymer is slightly increased by loweing the [Al]/[Zr] ratio, or addition of Lewis base modifier but at the expense of lowered catalytic activity and increase in ethylene content in the copolymer. Lowering of the polymerization temperature to 0°C resulted in a doubling of molecular weight but suffered 10-fold reduction in polymerization activity and increase of ethylene in copolymer.

Determination of composition of ethylene–propylene copolymers by intrinsic viscosity

Intrinsic viscosities have been measured at 25° on five ethylene–propylene copolymer samples ranging in composition from 33 to 75 mole-% ethylene. The solvents used were n-C₈ and n-C₁₆ linear alkanes and two branched alkanes, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and 2,2,4,4,6,8,8-heptamethylnonane (br-C₁₆). This choice was based on the supposition that the branched solvent would prefer the propylene segments and the linear solvent the ethylene segments, due to similarity in shape and possibly in orientational order. It was found that [η]_n ? [η]_br ≡ Δ[η] is indeed negative for propylene-rich copolymers, zero for a 56% ethylene copolymer, and positive for ethylene-rich copolymers. The Stockmayer–Fixman relation was used to obtain from Δ[η] a molecular-weight independent function of composition. The quantities (Δ[η]/[η])(1 + aM^?1/2) and Δ[η]/M are linear with the mole percent ethylene in the range investigated with 200 ≤ a ≤ 2000. The possibility of using these results for composition determination in ethylene–propylene copolymers is discussed. Intrinsic viscosities in the same solvents are reported for two samples of a terpolymer with ethylidene norbornene.     

Hydrodynamic properties of model 3-miktoarm star copolymers

The synthesis of well-defined, nearly monodispersed, 3-miktoarm (from the greek word μlkτós meaning mixed) star copolymer of the A₂B type is described. A and B is either polystyrene (PS), polybutadiene (PBd), or polyisoprene (PI). The sequential controlled addition of living anionic B and A chains to methyltrichlorosilane leads to narrow molecular weight distribution miktoarm star copolymers with homogeneous composition. Characterization was carried out by size exclusion chromatography, low-angle laser light scattering, laser differential refractometry, membrane and vapor pressure osmometry, nuclear magnetic resonance and ultraviolet spectroscopy. Analysis of [η], R_H and R_v of the A₂B and one A₂B₂ miktoarm copolymers, suggests that a small expansion of the copolymer occurs either in a good solvent for both species or in a Θ solvent for one of them, as compared with the corresponding star homopolymers. This is in contrast to results obtained on linear block copolymers, and is due to the increased occurrence of heterocontacts in the miktoarm starshaped architecture. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Poly(vinyl fluoride) solution characteristics

Nine unfractionated poly(vinyl fluoride) samples were characterized for molecular weight and polydispersity by means of sedimentation velocity, osmometry, and viscosity measurements. Molecular weights were in the range of 143,000–654,000 and M _w/M _n = 2.5–5.6. The Mark-Houwink (M-H) relation was established as [η] = 6.52 × 10^?5 M^0.80. The M-H exponent is at the Flory-Fox upper limit (0.80), as is characteristic of extended, polar polymers, in good solvents. The unperturbed chain dimensions, characteristic ratio and steric factor were derived by the methods of Stockmayer and Fixman and Kurata and Stockmayer. The steric factor is 1.7, which agrees with data reported for other poly(vinyl halides).     

Dilute Solution Properties of Poly(methacrylonitrile-co-styrene) and Poly(acrylonitrile-co-styrene)

Poly(methacrylonitrile-co-styrene) (PMANS) and Poly(acrylo-nitrile- co- styrene) (PANS) having 1:1 composition were prepared with free-radical initiators. The polymers were fractionated into fractions having narrow molecular weight distribution. The dilute solution properties of the fractionated copolymers were studied by light scattering, viscometry, and osmometry in solvents (methyl ethyl ketone, dimethylformamide, and acetone), [n]-M _w and(r²)_w ^l/2?M _w relationships have been established. The validity of the various graphical methods for the determination of Flory′s constant, K _θ were observed.

From the values of the steric factors it was noticed that the copolymer coil of PANS is stiffer than that of PMANS.     

Effects of composition on the solution properties of styrene–acrylonitrile copolymers

Short-range interactions between chain units of random copolymers in solution may be influenced by the composition or precisely by the distribution of sequence lengths of the same monomer units. Steric factors were derived for random copolymers of styrene and acrylonitrile with different compositions from the relation between the limiting viscosity number and the molecular weight. Mark-Houwink relations were obtained in methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or in N,N′-dimethylformamide (DMF) at 30°C. for random copolymers containing 0.383 (Co-1) and 0.626 (Co-2) mole fraction of acrylonitrile, the expressions are: [η] = 3.6 X 10^?4 M _w^0.62, for Co-1 in MEK; [η] = 5.3 X 10^?4 M _w^0.61, for Co-2 in MEK; [η] = 1.2 × 10^?4M _w^0.77 for Co-2 in DMF. With the Stockmayer-Fixman expression, these correlations become, respectively: [η]/M^1/2 = 1.24 × 10^?3 + 8.0 × 10^?7 M^1/2; and [η]/M^1/2 = 1.70 × 10^?3 + 6.3 × 10^?7 M^1/2; and [η]/M^1/2 = 1.68 × 10^?3 + 31.3 × 10^?7 M^1/2. From the unperturbed mean-square end-to-end distances, 〈L²〉₀, determined from the first terms of the latter expressions, together with 〈L²〉_0f calculated by assuming the completely free rotation, gives the steric factor σ = (〈L²〉₀/〈L²〉_0f)^1/2 as 2.25 ± 0.05 for Co-1, and 2.31 ± 0.10 for Co-2. These values of σ are close to those for polystyrene (σ = 2.22 ± 0.05) and for polyacrylonitrile (σ = 2.20 ± 0.05). Therefore, it is concluded that the dimensions of random copolymers of styrene and acrylonitrile in solution are not significantly influenced by the composition. In other words, the unperturbed dimensions are not affected by a change in the alternation tendency between styrene units with phenyl side groups having a large molar volume and acrylonitrile units with nitrile groups responsible for the electrostatic interactions. On the other hand, the long-range interactions reflect the effect of sequence length. The Huggins constant and the second virial coefficient obtained from the light-scattering measurements have optimum values at about 0.5 mole fraction of acrylonitrile, where the greatest tendency for alternation seems to exist.     

Molecular dimensions of polydipropylsiloxamer

The molecular dimensions of polydipropylsiloxamer were studied by intrinsic viscosity measurements in toluene and in 2-pentanone. The relationships between the molecualr weight and the intrinsic viscosity were found to be: [η]_25°C., toluene = 4.35 × 10^?4 M^0.58; [η]_θ(10°C.), toluene = 1.09 × 10^?3 M^0.5; [η]_θ(76°C.), 2-pentanone = 8.71 × 10^?4 M^0.5. This held reasonably well for molecular weights from 25,000 to 3000,000. The root-mean-square end-to-end length ratio, (r₀² /M)^1/2 as calculated from the constant K, exceeds the free rotation value by approximately 100%. The disparity is greater than that found with polydimethylsiloxamer, indicating a lower degree of flexibility for the polydipropylsiloxamer. This is largely due to the short range steric interaction between near neighboring units of the chain. Gel permeation chromatography was also employed to demonstrate the lower degree of flexibility for polydipropylsiloxamer as compared with polydimethylsiloxamer.     

Intrinsic viscosity of polymers of low molecular weight

Experimental evidence concerning the dependence of the intrinsic viscosity [η] on molecular weight M in the low molecular weight range (from oligomers to M = 5 × 10⁴) has been collected in a variety of solvents for about ten polymers, i.e., polyethylene, poly(ethylene oxide), poly(propylene oxide), polydimethylsiloxane, polyisobutylene, poly(vinylacetate), poly(methyl methacrylate), polystyrene, poly-α-methylstyrene, and some cellulose derivatives. In theta solvents, the constancy of the ratio [η]Θ/M^0.5 extends down to values of M much lower than those predicted by current hydrodynamic theories. In good solvents, and on decreasing M, the polymers examined, with the exception of polyethylene and some cellulose derivatives, show a decrease in the exponent a of the Mark-Houwink equation [η] = KM^a. This upward curvature gives rise to the existence of a more or less extended linear region where the equation [η] = K₀M^0.5 is obeyed. Below the linear range, i.e., for even shorter chains, the exponent a can increase, i.e., polydimethylsiloxane, or decrease below 0.5, i.e., poly(ethylene oxide), depending on the particular chain properties. These different dependences have been discussed in terms of: (a) variations of thermodynamic interactions with molecular weight; (b) variations of conformational characteristics (as for instance the ratio) 〈r0²/nl²〉, where 〈r0²〉 is the unperturbed mean square end-to-end distance and n is the number of bonds each of length l; (c) hydrodynamic properties of short chains.     

Frequency dependence of intrinsic viscosity of macromolecules with finite internal viscosity

In order to explain the observed nonvanishing limiting value of dynamic intrinsic viscosity of polymer solutions at ω = ∞ one has considered the necklace model with finite resistance to the rate of coil deformation introduced long ago by Cerf for the study of gradient dependence of intrinsic viscosity and streaming birefringence. The calculation need not take into account change of hydrodynamic interaction as a consequence of coil deformation because the experimental data are always either obtained at very low gradient or extrapolated to zero gradient so that in the experiment the macromolecule has the same conformation as in the solution at rest. The model indeed yields a finite [η]′_{ω = ∞} in good agreement with experiments on polystyrene in Aroclor. According to the theory [η]′_{ω = ∞}/[η]₀ decreases with increasing molecular weight as M^?1 and M^?1/2 for the free-draining and impermeable coil, respectively. The absolute limiting value [η]_∞′, therefore turns out to be nearly independent of M, at least for small values of internal viscosity. From the observed value [η]_∞′/[η₀] one can obtain the coefficient of internal viscosity of the macromolecule. The value for polystyrene in Aroclor calculated from dynamic experiments on rather concentrated solutions is close to that derived by Cerf from streaming birefringence observations of polystyrene in a series of solvents of widely differing viscosity.     

Ethylene–Norbornene Copolymerization by Rare-Earth Metal Complexes and by Carbon Nanotube-Supported Metallocene Catalysis

E–N copolymerization with a number of half-sandwich rare-earth metal compounds [M(η5-C₅Me₄SiMe₂R)(η1-CH₂SiMe₃)₂(L)] (M = Sc, Y, Lu) has been achieved. Mainly atactic alternating E N copolymers are obtained with all catalytic systems. Interestingly, copolymers arising from [Sc(η5-C₅Me₄SiMe₂C₆F₅)(η¹-CH₂SiMe₃)₂(THF)]/[/[Ph₃C][B(C₆F₅)₄] possess narrower molar mass distributions than those from [Sc(η⁵-C₅Me₄SiMe₃)(η¹-CH₂SiMe₃)₂(THF)] / [Ph₃C][B(C₆F₅)₄]. In addition, homogeneous surface coating of multi-walled carbon nanotubes is accomplished for the first time by in situ E–N copolymerization as catalyzed by rac-Et(Ind)₂ZrCl₂/MMAO-3A anchored onto the carbon nanotube surface. The copolymerization reaction allows for the destructuration of the native nanotube bundles. The relative quantity of E N copolymer can be tuned up as well as the norbornene content in the formed copolymers and accordingly their glass transition temperature. By melt blending with an ethylene-vinyl-co-acetate copolymer (27 wt.-% vinyl acetate comonomer) matrix, high performance polyolefinic nanocomposites are obtained.     

Molecular characterization of poly(diisopropyl fumarate) by the absolute calibration method in molecular exclusion chromatography (GPC)

The present work demonstrates that it is possible to obtain the parameters K and a of the Staudinger-Mark-Houwink relationship between the intrinsic viscosity [η] and the molecular weight M of a polymer by applying the absolute method of exclusion chromatography to samples of poly (diisopropyl fumarate). The procedure is based on deducing the relationship between molecular weight and elution volume V from chromatographic runs of a stoichiometrically labeled polymer sample with a broad molecular weight distribution. By using double detection it is possible to obtain the relationship f(V)/h(V) = M(V)/M_n = exp (A-BV)/M_n where M_n is the osmotically determined number average of the molecular weight of the eluted polymer while f(V) and h(V) are the normalized elution curves obtained by the use of the polymer mass detector and the label detector respectively. A and B are the parameters of the calibration curve, i.e., the relationship between M and V which together with the intrinsic viscosity and the elution curves of several samples of the polymer allows us to obtain the relationship between [η] and M. The results have been verified with chromatographic data through the use of the universal calibration concept.     

Organoruthenaborane Chemistry. X. The SM2-catalysed formation of [ l-(η6-C6Me6)-isocloso-RuB9H9], and some B-phenylamino derivatives. NMR and X-ray diffraction studies

The action of SMe₂ on the ten-vertex nido-ruthenaborane [6-(η⁶-C₆Me₆)RuB₉H_l3] ( 1 ) provides a high-yield route to the unsubstituted isocloso-ruthenaborane [1-(η⁶-C₆Me₆)RuB₉H₉] (2). The benzene analogue [1-(η⁶-C₆Me₆)RuB₉H₉] is prepared similarly. By contrast, reaction of (1) with PhNH₂ gives a variety of B-phenylamino isocloso derivatives, including orange crystals of [1-(η⁶-C₆Me₆)-2-(PhNH)-isocloso-1-RuB 9 H₈] ( 3 ), red-orange [1-(η⁶-C₆Me₆)-2,3-(PhNH)₂-isocloso-1-RuB₉H₇] ( 4 ) and dark-red [1-(η⁶-C₆Me₆)-5,6,7-(PhNH)₃-isocloso-1-RuB₉H₆] ( 5 ). Detailed ¹H and ¹¹B nmr properties of these various compounds are described. The structure of ( 3 ) has been established by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study of the solvate [1-(η⁶-C₆Me₆)-2-(PhNH)-isocloso-1-RuB₉H₈] · 1/2 CH₂Cl₂; the crystals were monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a = 1895.1(3), b = 1556.6(3), c = 1716.4(3) pm, β = 104.37(1)° and z = 8.     

Synthesis,stereochemistry, and spectroscopic characterization of [Rh(η4-cod){(R)-2-(X-benzaldimine)-2-phenylethanol-κ 2 N,O}](acetate) (X = H; 2,4-dimethoxy)

Condensation of X-benzaldehyde with (R)-2-amino-2-phenylethanol gives the enantiopure Schiff bases (R)-2-(X-benzaldimine)-2-phenylethanol (X?=?H, HL1; 2,4-dimethoxy, HL2). The Schiff bases coordinate with dinuclear [Rh(η⁴-cod)(µ-O₂CCH₃)]₂ to afford the cationic complexes [Rh(η⁴-cod){(R)-2-(benzaldimine)-2-phenylethanol-κ ² N,O}](acetate), [Rh(η⁴-cod)(HL1)](ac) (1) and [Rh(η⁴-cod){(R)-2-(2,4-dimethoxy-benzaldimine)-2-phenylethanol-κ ² N,O}](acetate), [Rh(η⁴-cod)(HL2)](ac) (2), respectively. The Schiff bases and complexes are isolated as solids in good yields and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, ¹H/¹³C-NMR, mass spectroscopy, and polarimetry.     

Model block–graft copolymer via anionic living polymerization: Preparation and characterization of polystyrene-block-[poly(p-hydroxystyrene)-graft-poly(ethylene oxide)]-block-polystyrene

A model graft copolymer in which position of graft points was set to the center of a backbone molecule was prepared via anionic living polymerization. Polystyrene-block-poly(p-tert-butoxystyrene)-block-polystyrene (PSt-b-PBSt-b-PSt) was prepared by three-stage sequential addition. The tert-butyl group was removed from PBSt by hydrogen bromide to yield PSt-b-PHSt-b-PSt, having a poly(p-hydroxystyrene) (PHSt) block. The hydroxyl group of PHSt was reacted with dimeric potassium dianions of 1, 1-diphenylethylene (DPE-K) or cumyl potassium (cumyl K) to yield the corresponding macromolecular initiators of PSt-b-PHSt⁻K⁺-b-PSt containing the potassium alkoxide ion of PHSt. The newly formed alkoxide groups and remaining initiators of DPE-K or cumyl K are capable of initiating the additionally introduced ethylene oxide (EO). Thus, two block–graft copolymers of polystyrene-block-[poly(p-hydroxystyrene)-graft-poly(ethylene oxide)]-block-polystyrene (PSt-b-(PHSt-g-PEO)-b-PSt) were prepared by a “grafting from” process (backbone initiation). A PSt-b-PHSt-b-PSt backbone (M_n = 1.7₅ × 10⁵ by osmometry and M_w/M_n = 1.0₈ by GPC), and two PSt-b-(PHSt-g-PEO)-b-PSt block–graft copolymers (M_n = 2.4₅ × 10⁵ by osmometry and M_w/M_n < 1.1₀ by GPC) had narrow molecular weight distributions. A relationship between nonquantitative metallation and spacing of the graft points on a backbone molecule was discussed in detail. Two benzene-cast films formed clear microphase-separated structures of lamellar structure. The dependence of composition on the morphology of the block–graft copolymers was found to differ from that of common block copolymers. A degree of crystallinity of PEO segment and lamellar thickness of PEO phase serving as graft molecule were also found to differ from those of homo PEO and/or PEO segment in common block copolymer. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Dilute-solution properties of trans-1,4-polyisoprene

Trans-1,4-polyisoprene was fractionated by both fractional precipitation and preparative gel permeation chromatography to obtain possibly sharp fractions of narrow molecular weight distribution. Selected fractions were characterized by light scattering, viscosity, and gel permeation chromatography. Necessary corrections for molecular heterogeneity were applied. Some of the characteristic relations between [η] and M _w are [η] = 1.81 × 10^?4 M in benzene at 30°C, [η] = 1.38 × 10^?4 M in n-hexane at 30°C, which are found to be in good agreement with literature data when corrected for molecular heterogeneity.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Styrene-Isoprene Diblock Copolymers

A simple reusable apparatus for the synthesis of up to 40 g quantities of poly(styrene-b-isoprene) diblock copolymers of reasonably low (1.2 to 1.5) polydispersity has been described. The diblock copolymers synthesized were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), membrane osmometry, viscosimetry, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Number-average molecular weights (M _n) calculated from the raw GPC chromatographs of the diblock copolymers using the summation method and M versus elution volume plots for polystyrene and polyisoprene standards agree well with those measured experimentally with osmometry. It is suggested that for polydisperse block copolymers this method is simpler than the use of a universal calibration curve. Mark-Houwink constants K ans a for polyisoprene having 18% (1,2-), 66% (3,4-), and 16% (1,4-) microstructure were found to be 3.2 × 10^?4 dL/g and 0.67, respectively, in THF at 25°C. In toluene at 30°C, K = 2.0 × 10^?4 dL/g and α = 0.7 were obtained. The diblock copolymers had 26% (1,2-), 60% (3,4-), and 14% (1,4-) microstructure in the isoprene segments, and the values of K and a for these copolymers (PS > 50%, M 20.0 × 10³) in THF at 25°C were 9.0 × 10^?5 dL/g and 0.75. For M < 20.0 × 10³ the value of α was 0.5. The experimental values of [η] were found to be lower than those calculated theoretically, presumably due to the polydisperse nature and the biellipsoidal configuration of the diblock copolymers.
