In a process for producing poly (p-phenylenesulfide) from an alkali metal sulfide and a p-dihalobenzene, a product polymer of an advantageously increased molecular weight is obtained by: providing a mixture comprising an alkali metal sulfide, a polar aprotic solvent and a carboxylic acid sodium salt represented by the general formula: ZCOONa (wherein Z is a C.sub.6 -C.sub.20 aromatic hydrocarbon group or a substituted or unsubstituted pyridyl group ##STR1## where substituents R, which may be the same or different, represent each a C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 organic radical and n is an integer of from 0 to 4), the content of water present in said mixture apart from any water of hydration or crystallization which may be contained in said alkali metal sulfide and carboxylic acid sodium salt being at least 5 moles per mole of said alkali metal sulfide present; thermally dehydrating said alkali metal sulfide in said mixture by removing at least part of the water from said mixture; and then contacting the resulting dehydrated mixture with a p-dihalobenzene so as to produce the intended polymer.
摘要:
A class of amide group-containing aromatic dihalide compounds are sulfidized together with a class of aromatic dihalide compounds to provide a novel class of aromatic sulfideamide polymers increased in crystalline melting point (T.sub.m). The polymers exhibit excellent resistance to high temperatures, resistance to solvents, flame-retardant properties and improved mechanical properties.

A polyphenylene sulfide resin composition improved in the impact strength, toughness, high temperature resistance and solvent resistance properties is disclosed. The composition comprises (A) 60-99.5% by weight of a thermally cured polyphenylene sulfide material having a melt viscosity of 500-30,000 poises and which has been derived, by thermally curing, from a polyphenylene sulfide having a melt viscosity of 400 poises of higher and containing 0.05-5 mol % of amino groups on the basis of the phenylene sulfide repeating units, and (B) 40-0.5% by weight of a modified polyethylene material comprising at least one polyethylene onto which at least one unsaturated carboxylic acid and/or derivative thereof is graft-copolymerized in a proportion of 0.1-10% by weight of the total weight of said modified polyethylene material.
摘要:
In a process for preparing a polyarylene sulfide by reacting an alkali metal sulfide and at least one dihaloaromatic compound in an organic amide solvent at an elevated temperature: a highly pure anhydrous alkali metal sulfide reactant having a purity of at least 95% by weight and a content of alkali metal hydrosulfide impurity of not greater than 2% by weight is employed. The water is deliberately added in a proportion of 0.1 to 0.8 moles per each mole of the alkali metal sulfide used in the process. The alkali metal sulfide reactant is charged in a concentration of 2.5 to 5 moles per liter of the reaction mixture. The deliberate addition of water enables one to omit a dehydration stage which has been desirably or rather necessarily effected to obtain a satisfactory polymer product where a hydrous alkali metal sulfide reactant is employed. The improved process of the invention provides a highly pure polyarylene sulfide product having a relatively increased molecular weight and a decreased content of by-product oligomers.

A poly(phenylene sulfide) resin composition less liable to discoloration and exhibiting excellent ductilities is provided. The composition comprises a poly(phenylene sulfide) resin pre-cured in a non-oxidative, inert gas atmosphere and a fibrous glass reinforcement exhibiting a very low weight loss on heating. The poly(phenylene sulfide) resin has, before curing, a melt viscosity of greater than about 400 poises at 300.degree. C.
摘要:
A poly(phenylene sulfide) material containing predominantly para-phenylene sulfide structural units and having a melt viscosity of at least 5 poises (at 300.degree. C.) may be treated or reacted with an alkali metal sulfide and/or hydrosulfide in a polar aprotic solvent at a relatively low temperature in the range of 150.degree.-230.degree. C. so as to introduce an increased amount of reactive thiolate or thiol end groups to the polymer molecule and hence to enhance the reactivity of the polymer material. The thus modified and highly reactive poly(phenylene sulfide) material exhibits an improved compatibility with other polymers and is expected to be useful in preparation of polymer alloys of improved or modified physical and chemical properties.

A method for purifying N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone containing thiophenol and/or diphenyl disulfide is disclosed, comprising adding a polyhalogenated aromatic compound and an alkali metal hydroxide and/or an alkali metal carbonate to the N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone containing thiophenol and/or diphenyl disulfide, heat treating the mixture, and subjecting the mixture to separation by distillation. The thiophenol and/or diphenyl disulfide can be removed with ease and at low cost.
摘要:
A polyarylene sulfide having a low content of electrolytic ions is economically recovered from a mixture consisting mainly of polyarylene sulfide and an alkali metal halide which mixture is obtained by reacting a polyhalogenated aromatic compound and an alkali metal sulfide containing water in an organic polar solvent, by dehydrating the mixture by distillation, mixing the dehydrated mixture with a solvent which is a poor solvent for both polyarylene sulfide and alkali metal halide and which is soluble in the organic polar solvent to prepare a slurry consisting essentially of the polyarylene sulfide and the alkali metal halide, subjecting the slurry to solid-liquid separation, washing the resultant cake with the poor solvent, drying the cake, adding water to the cake to wash away the alkali metal halide through dissolution, and subjecting the slurry to solid-liquid separation to recover polyarylene sulfide. Such a polyarylene sulfide is particularly useful for use in electronic and electric components and molded articles such as films, sheets and fibers.
摘要:
There are disclosed a class of halogen-ended polyalkylene glycols and halogen-ended polyolefins (II) which are copolymerizable with polyarylene sulfides or sulfone-based polymers. These halogen-ended polymers may be readily copolymerized with polyarylene sulfides or sulfone-based polymers to provide polyphenylene sulfide copolymers (I) exhibiting increased crystallization speeds. These high crystallization speeds enable the copolymers to be molded in a low-temperature mold, for example, at 100.degree. C. or less, while providing fully crystallized moldings having excellent heat resistance properties.
