Abstract:
Disclosed are a lactone-modified polyvinyl alcohol and a process for the preparation thereof, a polymer composition, a permanently anti-electrostatic resin composition, a lactone-modified resin having hydroxyl groups, and a process for the preparation thereof.The lactone-modified polyvinyl alcohol can be used in wide fields owing to capability of freely adjusting a water solubility such as water-soluble, gradually water-soluble, low water-soluble, and water-insoluble by a degree modified by lactone compounds, and owing to possessing both properties in PVA and lactones.Furthermore, the lactone-modified polyvinyl alcohol has a property as plasticizers or softening agents, as a result, there can be provided a polymer composition having an excellent property by mixing with hydrophilic polymer or polar polymer.Still further, a blend resin composition in which a variety of resins are blended with the lactone-modified polyvinyl alcohol has an excellent permanently-anti-electrostatic property, and the resin composition having a permanently-anti-electrostatic property can be preferably employed as a variety of molded articles such as parts for electric appliances, textiles, films, etc.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to electrostatic dissipative polymeric compositions comprising a polyether polyurethane which can be blended with one or more base polymers. In some applications, the polyurethane is useful without further blending. Further, the polyurethane blends can be blended with glass beads or glass fibers which have a synergist effect when combined with the electrostatic dissipative agent.
Abstract:
A transparent polyester-ester amide having a permanently antistatic property is obtained by copolymerizing (a) an aminocarboxylic acid, a lactam, or a salt derived from a diamine and a dicarboxylic acid; (b) a diol of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are an ethylene oxide or propylene oxide group, Y is covalent bond, alkylene, alkylidene, cycloalkylidene, arylalkylidene, O, SO, SO.sub.2, CO, S, CF.sub.2, C(CF.sub.3).sub.2 or NH, X is H, alkyl, halogen, sulfonic acid or salt thereof, l is 0 or an integer of 1-4, and m and n an integer of 1-15; (c) a poly(alkylene oxide)glycol or a diol of the formula:HO--R.sup.3 --OH (IV)wherein R.sup.3 is alkylene, alkylidene, cycloalkylidene or arylalkylidene; and (d) a dicarboxylic acid; wherein the content of the polyether-ester units is 10 to 90 wt. %. The polyether-ester amide is used preferably as a blend thereof with a graft copolymerization product formed by graft-polymerizing (a) a rubbery polymer with (b) a monomer mixture of a methacrylic or acrylic acid ester, an aromatic vinyl monomer and an optional vinyl cyanide monomer, this product having a refractive index approximately similar to that of the polyether-ester amide.
Abstract:
An antistatic material containing a base material which is rubber and/or polyvinyl cloride resin, to which are added a cationic quaternary ammonium salt and polyethylene glycol, and optionally aluminum hydroxide or calcium carbonate. The antistatic material has a low electric resistance and excellent thermal stability, and can be colored in any color.
Abstract:
Electrically conductive polymeric systems having electrical conductivities greater than 10.sup.-4 S/cm are prepared by a method wherein a polyarylene compound which contains one or more chain members of the formula ##STR1## where n is greater than 1, preferably from 5 to 50, R is a nitrile, acid amide, carboxyl or ester group, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each hydrogen or a nitrile, acid amide, carboxyl or ester group, with the proviso that in each case one of the radicals R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 is hydrogen and the other is a nitrile, acid amide, carboxyl or ester group, and Y is an aromatic radical, preferably phenylene, is doped, in the absence of moisture and oxygen, with from 0.03 to 0.9 mole percent of an electron-attracting or electron-donating complexing agent. The resulting electrically conductive polymeric systems are useful in the electrical industry for the production of solar cells, for converting and fixing electromagnetic radiation and for the production of electrical and magnetic switches and electrical storage devices, and can be used for the antistatic treatment of plastics.
Abstract:
Polyphenylene ether resins having improved properties are described. These resins contain minor effective amounts of an antistatic agent comprising N,N-bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-octyl-N-methyl ammonium para toluene sulfonate salt, preferably with polyethylene glycol ester also present. In addition to serving as an enhancer for the antistatic agent, the polyethylene glycol ester also improves such properties as odor and impact strength.
