Synergistic mechanisms of β-diketone derivatives and zinc-calcium soaps in PVC stabilisation

It has been possible to explain the mechanisms of stabilisation and of the synergistic effects of the β-diketone derivatives claimed in a patent as new stabilisers for improving the efficiency of those recipes based upon zinc and calcium soaps in the prevention of the initial discoloration of poly(vinyl chloride).Using chlorohexene as a model compound for allylic chloride structures and benzoylacetone as a model compound for enolised β-diketone derivatives, it has been shown that the benzoylacetone can substitute allylic chlorine atoms through a C-alkylation reaction which takes place only in the presence of ZnCl₂ as catalyst. This reaction drastically changes the percentage of the enol and causes the appearance of two bands at 1720 cm^?1 and 1680 cm^?1 in the infra-red spectrum due to the ketonic structures During the processing of the PVC on a rolling mill at 180°C in the presence of zinc and calcium stearates and benzoylacetone there is grafting of the ketone derivative through a C-alkylation reaction. There is a closed parallelism between the influence of the benzoylacetone on the dehydrochlorination of the chlorohexene and on the accumulation of chloride ions in the polymer matrix in the presence of zinc and calcium stearate. The synergistic effect of the benzoylacetone in the prevention of the initial discoloration is related to the substitution reaction through a C-alkylation which takes place only in the presence of zinc stearate which generates ZnCl₂ which, in turn, acts as a catalyst for both the C-alkylation and dehydrochlorination.     

Diffusion of additives and plasticizers in poly(vinyl chloride)—II: The self-diffusion of the stabilizers dibutyltin dilaurate and dibutyltin bismonobutylmaleate in plasticized poly(vinyl chloride)

The self-diffusion coefficient, D, of dibutyltin dilaurate and dibutyltin bismonobutylmaleate have been obtained at 35, 45 and 55° in samples of poly(vinyl chloride) plasticized with 34, 60 and 100 phr of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate. D at 2 phr of the laurate is 3–5 times larger than for the smaller maleate molecule. In all cases, D increases with increasing plasticizer concentration, an effect interpreted in terms of the free volume theory of diffusion. D for the laurate increases by a factor of about 2.7 when the laurate diffusant concentration is increased from 0 to 4 phr. The activation energies for diffusion, E_D, lie between 50 and 90 kJ mol^?1. They increase with increasing plasticizer concentration but become constant at higher plasticizer concentrations (60–100 phr). It is impossible to correlate all the known data on diffusion in plasticized PVC with an equation of the form log D₀ = C₁ + C₂ E_D/RT     

Space structure of a fireball and the pion radius

Results of calculation of the fireball radius as measured by means of the Hanbury-Brown and Twiss (HBT) effect are interpreted in the context of Landau's hydrodynamical model. A method based on a simple geometric picture of fireball formation is used to deduce the pion radius. From available data of various \(\bar p\) p annihilations andπ ^± p,K ⁺ p collisions, it is foundr _π=0.76±0.22 fm. A derivation is given on the decoherence factor of the Kopylov formula. A discussion is presented on other applications of the HBT effect to particle physics.
