摘要:
Novel thermoplastic olefin copolymers and blends comprising the same are prepared from precursor functionalized olefin polymers and functionalized polymers.
摘要:
Macrocyclic oligomer mixtures, particularly polyimide oligomer mixtures, are prepared by the treatment of a dihalo-substituted organic compound or the like under reducing conditions, preferably by a complex of a zerovalent Group VIII metal. Cyclization takes place by reductive dehalogenation.
摘要:
Ethylenically unsaturated graftable monomers are prepared by reacting hydroxy substituted orthoesters with electrophilic reagents, an alkaline reagent, and a phase transfer catalyst. Preferably the hydroxy orthoester is 4-hydroxymethyl-2-methoxy-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane, and the preferred reagent is acryloyl chloride with sodium hydroxide as the base and methyltrialkylammonium (C₈₋₁₀) chloride as the phase transfer catalyst.
摘要:
Epoxy-functionalized polyphenylene ethers are prepared by melt blending a polyphenylene ether with glycidyl acrylate in the presence of a lubricant such as at least one hydrogenated poly-α-olefin. The blending reaction takes place at a temperature in the range of about 250-300°C, and the amount of glycidyl acrylate employed is about 2.5-5.0% by weight based on polyphenylene ether. The products are characterized by a gel content of less than 5% by weight. They form copolymer-containing compositions having excellent properties upon melt blending with linear polyesters such as poly(butylene terephthalate).
摘要:
A method for forming polyphenylene ether-graft-orthoester copolymer blends comprises blending functionalized polyphenylene ethers made with graftable orthoester moieties with nucleophilic polymers. Preferably the orthoester is 4-acryloyloxymethyl-2-methoxy-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane monomer, and the nucleophilic polymers are selected from polyesters, polyamides, or functionalized polyolefins. The preferred method for blending is by a one-step process, in which all reactions occur in one pass.
摘要:
Ethylenically unsaturated cyclic ortho esters are prepared by the reaction of a hydroxy-substituted cyclic ortho ester such as 4-hydroxymethyl-2-methoxy-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane with acryloyl chloride, methacryolyl chloride, vinylbenzyl chloride or the like. They form polymers, especially random copolymers with styrene and EPDM graft copolymers; the latter are useful in the formation of copolymer-containing compositions with polyesters, polyamides and the like. The copolymer-containing compositions have excellent physical properties and may be employed to compatibilize blends of the same polymers.
