摘要:
A class of di-ortho-substituted bismaleimides undergo uncatalyzed Michael addition with polyhydric phenols to afford chain-extended bismaleimides having a significantly wider processing window than the non-extended parent. The fully cured resins show improved fracture toughness, generally have comparable or superior dielectric constant and dielectric loss, and show no degradation in other properties such as resistance to moisture, to methylene chloride, and coefficient of thermal expansion.
摘要:
Chlorine-resistant semipermeable membranes which comprise an interfacial polymerized reaction product composited on a porous support backing material may be prepared by contacting a porous support material such as polysulfone with an aqueous solution of an aromatic polyamine containing a chlorine substituent on the aromatic ring such as 5-chlor-m-phenylenediamine. The coated support material is then contacted with an organic solvent solution of aromatic polycarboxylic acid chloride such as trimesoyl chloride for a period of time sufficient to form an interfacial polymerized reaction product on the surface of the support material. The resultant semipermeable membrane is then cured at curing conditions to form the desired composite. The resultant membrane composite may be used in separation processes such as desalination of brackish or sea water, the membrane being resistant to attack by chlorine which is present in the water.
摘要:
Facilitated gas enrichment membrane composites which are utilized in the separation of gases or gas enrichment of a gas mixture will comprise an organometallic compound which acts as a gas carrier interdispersed in an interpenetrating polymer network matrix. The network matrix which comprises the reaction product of an isocyanate-capped polymer physically entwined with a nitrogen-containing compound will be nonacidic and hydrophobic in nature.

Semipermeable membranes which may be used in a variety of separation processes such as desalination, sugar separation, etc. are prepared by contacting a porous support backing material such as polysulfone with an aqueous solution of a hydrazine compound. The coated support material is then contacted with an organic solution of an aromatic polycarboxylic acid chloride whereby an interfacial polymerized condensation reaction product is formed on the surface of the support. The thus formed composite is then cured at an elevated temperature and recovered.

Semipermeable composite membranes which comprise an interpenetrating polymer network of the isocyanate-capped polymer which is the reaction product of a polyether and an isocyanate with a copolymer containing at least two saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic nitrogen-containing compounds composited on a porous backing support material may be used in various separation systems. These separation systems may include reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, gas separation, dialysis, etc., an especially useful system being the separation of sugars.

Apparatus and method for performing an electrochemical process involving hydrogen and gaseous compounds capable of dissociating into or combining with hydrogen ions using a solid electrolyte concentration cell. Specific applications are fuel cells for producing an electrical current and separation of hydrogen from a gaseous mixture. A novel proton-conducting membrane comprised of an interpenetrating polymer network serves as the solid electrolyte. For increased strength, a membrane may be composited with or utilized with a porous support.

摘要:
Water-insoluble proton-conducting polymers which may be formed into membranes which are used in gas separation or gas sensing processes comprise an interpenetrating polymer network. This IPN is formed from the interaction between a host polymer and a guest polymer which is subsequently cross-linked or cured. The host polymer blend is formed from a phosphoric acid or sulfuric acid and a polymer or copolymer of a compound which possesses repeat units such as, for example, hydroxy ethylene, vinyl sulfonic acid, ethylene imine, etc, while the guest polymer is formed from a monofunctional monomer such as methacrylic acid and a difunctional cross-linking agent such as methylenebisacrylamide.
