摘要:
It has unexpectedly been discovered that 1-(1-isocyanato-1-methylethyl)-3-(1-methylethenyl) benzene(m-TMI) can be emulsion copolymerized with other monomers into useful polymers. For example, it has been found that m-TMI can be emulsion copolymerized with diene monomers to produce polymers which contain pendant isocyanate groups. Such pendant isocyanate groups are useful in a variety of applications. For instance, such pendant isocyanate groups can be utilized as sites to which chemical agents, such as antidegradants, can be bound to the polymer. Elastomers which contain such pendant isocyanate groups are of value since they can be crosslinked without employing sulfur. Elastomers of this type which contain pendant isocyanate groups can also potentially be thermo-reversibly crosslinked.
摘要:
The diimide hydrogenation of unsaturated elastomers in latex utilizing hydrazine and hydrogen peroxide or oxygen, is a metal-catalyzed process. Copper ion has been found to be the most superior catalyst for this reaction, requiring an extremely low concentration for optimal results. Generated diimide efficiently hydrogenates the polymer olefinic unsaturation while generating water and nitrogen as byproducts. With a falling hydrazine concentration during the hydrogenation process however, a competing copper-catalyzed process capable of generating hydroxyl, superoxide and/or copper-oxyl radicals becomes increasingly competitive. The ability of these radical species to abstract hydrogen from the polymer backbone to generate polymeric radicals, ultimately results in crosslinking that occurs concurrently with hydrogenation. The concept of an OH radical inactivating ligand (OIL) complexed with copper is demonstrated to ameliorate the crosslinking reaction.
