Abstract A nitroxide (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, TEMPO) mediated polymerization method was applied to the graft polymerization of styrene (ST)/ n-butyl methacrylate (BMA) to isotactic polypropylene (PP). PP peroxides produced by γ-irradiation in air were used as macroinitiator for grafting. The molecular characteristics of grafted and free poly(ST-r-BMA) chains were analysed by gel permeation chromatography, NMR and IR measurements. The molecular weight of grafted poly(ST-r-BMA) cleaved from PP was slightly higher than that of free poly(ST-r-BMA) generated simultaneously in the reaction system. Polydispersities of these polymers were narrow, indicating that grafting proceeded in a living fashion. The incorporated amount of BMA into grafted poly(ST-r-BMA) was smaller than that of free poly(ST-r-BMA). It is considered that the local concentration of BMA around propagating ends of graft poly(ST-r-BMA) was lower than that around free poly(ST-r-BMA) because PP cannot be dissolved in BMA monomer but in ST monomer at the polymerization temperature.

AbstractThe kinetics and the extent of side reactions of the anionic polymerization of silyl-protected 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl methacrylate (TBDMS-HEMA), in tetrahydrofuran (THF) were studied as a function of polymerization temperature. Lithium chloride was added in order to achieve a controlled polymerization. The results of polymerizations at various temperatures are compared with reported data for methyl methacrylate and tert-butyl methacrylate in THF. The activation energy for the studied monomer is lower compared to the other methacrylates. Gel permeation chromatography-viscosity studies show that poly(TBDMS-HEMA) exhibits a more wormlike structure in THF than other polymethacrylates, as indicated by a higher Mark-Houwink exponent, α = 1.025.

The Impact

Different molecular weight of block coupling agents with well-defined structures have been synthesized successfully by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) from styrene (St), butyl methacrylate (BMA) and 3-methoxyacryloyl-propyltrimethoxyl silicon (KH-570) are as monomer. The structures and compositions of macromolecular coupling agents have been characterized by means of infrared spectrum (FT-IR), ultraviolet spectrum (UV), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). And their effects on the polystyrene/silica (PS/SiO2) composite materials have been studied. The results show that interface compatibility and mechanical properties of composite materials containing macromolecule coupling agents are improved significantly. The composite materials with block macromolecular coupling agents possess more excellent comprehensive performance. Furthermore, the impact strength increased by 110% when comparing with composite materials which are not modified by the coupling agents.

Porous Poly

Porous poly (1-naphthylamine) were synthesized by interfacial polymerization method. The effects of several reaction conditions including oxidant/monomer molar ratio, polymerization temperature and reaction time on the polymerization yield have been investigated. The highest yield of poly (1-naphthylamine) was up to 73% at oxidant/monomer molar ratio of 3 and polymerization temperature of 25 °C for over 20h. Using FT-IR and XRD to analyze the structure of the obtained polymer, the results show that the main mode of connection for 1-naphthylamine units was linking N to para-C and it formed amorphous polymer with some ordered strutures. The micro-morphology of the polymer observed by SEM was found to have irregular porous structure with pore size less than 5μm, which may be related to the “self-emulsion effect” during polymerization.

Abstract The cationic copolymerization of 1,3-pentadiene (PD) with α-pinene (AP) initiated by aluminum trichloride (AlCl3) was carried out in N-pentane solvent. The effects of the polymerization temperature and the comonomer composition on the yield of the copolymer, softening point, Gardner color scale and number-average molecular weight (Mn) are discussed. The performance of the copolymer was better than that of AP homopolymer (PAP) and PD homopolymer (PPD). The structure of the copolymer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), 13C-NMR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). In addition, the reactivity ratios for AP (M1) and PD (M2) determined by the Kelen-Tudos method from low-conversion data are r1=0.58 and r2=5.92, respectively.

The thioether bridged metallocene complex [(C5H5)Cl2TiC5H4CH2CH2]2S has been synthesized by treating the dilithium salts of the thioether bridged cyclopentadienyl ligand with two equivalents of C5H5TiCl3 and characterized by 1HMNR and elemental analysis. After activation with methylaluminoxane (MAO), the complex was highly active catalysts for homogeneous ethylene polymerization in toluene. The influence of the molar ratio [MAO]/[Cat], the catalyst concentration, time and temperature have been studied systematically. The catalytic activity of 1 is 3.63×105 g PE/mol•Cat•h. Rising the polymerization temperature decreases the catalytic activity for 1. A high concentration of the catalysts drops the catalytic activity as well as the molecular weight of polyethylene for the complex. High temperature gel permeation chromatography (HT-GPC) proves the production of polyethylene with a broad molecular weight distribution (MWD).

Radiation Chemical

Xanthan gum samples were irradiated in aqueous solution at different doses (0-120 kGy) of 60Co γ-rays. The changes of molecular weight and structures of irradiated xanthan gum samples were investigated and characterized by using gel permeation chromatography(GPC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier-transform infrared spectra (FTIR), ultraviolet–visible spectral (UV–vis) analysis and rheometer. Results showed the molecular weight decreased gradually with increasing irradiation dose. The radiation chemical yields G(d) of xanthan gum was 26.55. FTIR spectra and XRD indicated that γ-irradiation introduced no significant changes into the structure and crystal texture, but UV spectra showed a distinct absorption peak at about 265 nm, increasing with irradiation dose, which was attributed to the formation of carbonyl groups or double bond. Apparent viscosity of xanthan gum solution decreased with increasing irradiation dose and remain basically constant with the prolonging of shear time after irradiation.
