摘要:
The use of aluminum sulfate as a dessicant for drying the starting materials used in polymerization reactions employing readily hydrolyzable catalysts is disclosed. The aluminum sulfate is allowed to remain in the reaction mixture during polymerization, and, indeed, may advantageously be allowed to remain in the reaction product without any deleterious effect.

A polyethylene terephthalate polycondensation catalyst system comprises from about 2 parts to about 18 parts of catalyst metal in the form of an alkyl titanate and from about 40 parts to about 300 parts of catalyst metal in the form of an antimony compound, each of said metals being per million parts of polymer product.

A new process for the preparation of poly-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate polyesters having high (>80%) trans isomer content comprises heating in the presence of a suitable catalyst an ester of trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid and a diacyl derivative of an aromatic diol.
摘要:
Copolyesters having random sequence distributions can be prepared in the melt phase in the presence of triarylphosphine catalysts. These copolyesters are prepared by reacting a first polyester with either a second polyester or polyester precursors. They are useful for the formulation of films, fibers, binders, adhesives, molded articles, sheeting and lacquers.
摘要:
A copolycarbonate of the formula wherein 5 to 50 mole percent of the total number of R1 groups is derived from a monomer of formula (2) wherein each Rf is independently at each occurrence a halogen atom, a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbons, or a halogen substituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbons, and n is 0 to 4; and 50 to 95 mole percent of the R1 groups are derived from a dihydroxy compound of formula HO—R5—OH, wherein at least 60% of the R5 groups are aromatic, and the dihydroxy compound of formula (3) is not a compound of formula (2), and wherein the copolycarbonate comprises at least 10% fewer carbonate linkages of formula (4) than would be theoretically obtained in a random copolymer made from the same ratio of the monomer of formula (2) and the dihydroxy compound of formula (3).
摘要:
A soil release promoting copolymer of polyethylene terephthalate and polyoxyethylene terephthalate (PET-POET) having a weight average molecular weight in the range of 15,000 to 35,000, and a PET:POET molar ratio of about 2:1 to 6:1, is prepared by reacting polyethylene terephthalate with polyethylene glycol in the presence of a catalyst system including both antimony trioxide and calcium acetate or both titanium isopropoxide and sodium isopropoxide. The PET-POET copolymer provides improved soil release properties for oily and greasy stains from polyester fabrics at high and low wash temperatures and is stable even at high alkalinity levels. The starting PET can advantageously be obtained from scrap bottles.
摘要:
An esterification process particularly for the preparation of rosin esters, polyesters and polymeric esters wherein aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic acids are reacted with appropriate alcohols in the presence of catalytic amounts of a mixture of a calcium hydroxyaryl phosphonate and an organosilicon heterocycle, the presence of said mixture serving to reduce the time necessary for complete esterification and to provide esters with increased oxidation stability and better color.
摘要:
Aliphatic polyesters containing sulphur, which contain the sulphur as structural units in the form of sulphide or disulphide groups in both the acid component and the diol component, a process for the preparation of these polyesters, and also polymers containing these polyesters.
摘要:
Condensation polymers of high molecular weight, such as polyesters, polyureas, and polyamides, are usually prepared at temperatures of 200.degree. C. or greater. However, by utilizing the catalyst system of the present invention condensation polymers can be synthesized at much lower temperatures. These catalyst systems are comprised of (1) a silicon-phosphorus composition which contains at least one divalent oxygen atom which is bonded directly to a tetravalent silicon atom and a trivalent or pentavalent phosphorus atom; and (2) at least one acid acceptor. For example, P(OSiR.sub.3).sub.3 wherein R can be an aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon radical, can be used in conjunction with a basic solvent as a catalyst system. Polymeric agents having pendant diphenylphosphine dichloride groups can also be used in conjunction with an acid acceptor as a catalyst system.
摘要:
A process for production of polyester which comprises steps of:subjecting aromatic dicarboxylic acid or alkyl ester thereof, and glycol to ester exchange reaction or esterification, andsubjecting the resulting mixture to polycondensation in a specific heating medium.The process can be carried out by using of small energy and a simple apparatus, and provides polyester having high quality.
