摘要:
Macrocyclic oligomers, including polycarbonates, polyesters, polyamides, polyimides, polyetherketones and polyethersulfones, are conveniently prepared from various spiro(bis)indane compounds, especially the 6,6'-difunctional 3,3',3'-tetramethylspiro(bis)indanes. The macrocyclic oligomers may be conveniently converted to linear polymers.
摘要:
A method for making silicone-poly(arylcarbonate) block copolymers is provided by intercondensing a hydroxyl-terminated polycarbonate oligomer with a halo-terminated polydiorganosiloxane in the presence of an acid acceptor.
摘要:
Lewis acids such as triphenyl borate, triphenylborane and aluminum isopropoxide are employed to inhibit or control the formation of linear polycarbonates from cyclic polycarbonate oligomers. Inhibition of polymerization initiated by impurities in the cyclics is noted. When polymerization is effected by basic polycarbonate formation catalysts, the Lewis acids can act as reaction rate accelerators or inhibitors depending on reaction parameters.
摘要:
Cyclic polycarbonate mixtures containing units derived from spirobiindane bisphenols, preferably 6,6'-dihydroxy-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylspirobiindane are prepared from the corresponding bischloroformates or mixtures thereof with bisphenols. They may be homopolymeric or copolymeric; cyclic oligomer mixtures are preferred. Such oligomers may be converted to linear polycarbonates having high glass transition temperatures.
摘要:
Copolycarbonates are prepared by ring-opening cyclic polycarbonate oligomers with various nucleophilic polymers. The latter include "living" anionic vinyl polymers; polymers such as polyphenylene ethers or hydroxyaryl-terminated polyimides which contain deprotonated hydroxy or carboxy groups; polymers containing neutral nucleophilic moieties, such as secondary amine-terminated polyimides, polyethersulfones and polyetherketones; and anionic polymers of ring-opened compounds such as cyclic polysiloxanes, lactams and lactones.

摘要:
Cyclic polycarbonate oligomers are polymerized to linear polycarbonates by contact with a catalyst comprising a polymer containing alkali metal phenoxide moieties. Said polymer is preferably a polycarbonate and the alkali metal is preferably lithium. The catalyst polymer may be prepared by the reaction of a polymer with phenolic moieties with an alkali metal base such as lithium phenoxide at a temperature in the range of about 200.degree.-300.degree. C.
摘要:
Cyclic polycarbonate oligomers are polymerized to linear polycarbonates by contact with a polycarbonate formation catalyst which has been modified by contacting the same with at least one diaryl carbonate, preferably diphenyl carbonate. Said modification decrease the polymerization rate or introduces an induction period into the polymerization reaction.
摘要:
Novel bis(cyclic carbonates) are useful as cross-linking agents for polycarbonate compositions (including cyclic polycarbonate oligomers), and, in combination with flame retardant agents, as anti-drip agents for polycarbonate resins. This bis(cyclic carbonates) may be prepared by the reaction of phosgene with novel tetraphenols, which in turn may be prepared by the condensation of aliphatic dialdehydes with phenols.
摘要:
Aromatic sulfoxy tetracarboxylic acids, and their derivatives such as dianhydrides, bisimides and polyimides, are prepared by oxidizing the corresponding sulfides under relatively mild conditions, using oxidizing agents such as nitric acid, N-chlorosuccinimide, potassium persulfate and hydrogen peroxide. The polyimides may also be prepared by the reaction of the dianhydrides or certain bisimides with diamines.
