摘要:
Novel Schiff base and diazo liquid crystals with a selenium center forming nanostructured Cubbi phases are presented herein. The new liquid crystals can be used for the fabrication of high-performance photovoltaic devices, while exhibiting improved thermal stability and electron-transport properties as compared to currently known liquid crystals.
摘要:
An organic reductant, in particular an organo silicon reductant suitable for activating supported catalysts of the type MOnEm, wherein E is S and/or Se, in particular MOn, wherein M is W, Mo or Re, is described as well as its use in metathesis reactions. The reduced catalysts are able to metathesize olefins at low temperatures and are therefore also suitable for metathesis of functionalized olefins.

The invention discloses an improved process for the preparation of 2,2,5,5-tetrasubstituted hexane-1,6-dicarbonyl compounds, and in particular diethyl 2,2,5,5-tetramethylhexanedioate and dimethyl 2,2,5,5-tetramethylhexanedioate, by the alkylation of 1,2-difunctional ethane compounds with enolates of carbonyl compounds. The process provides higher yields and greater synthetic brevity than existing processes.

The present invention related to compositions and methods of producing polyesters with two and/or more different structural units and the materials of polyesters with structure sequence exactly specified therefore produced, and various articles produced from such exactly sequenced polyesters. More particularly, homogeneous copolymers with precisely defined sequences of various hydroxyl acids and their derivatives are produced according to the present invention.
摘要:
For the oligomerization of a fatty ester or fatty acid containing conjugated double bonds, the reaction uses a catalyst consisting of an activated earth, e.g., montmorillonite, at a temperature of from 100.degree.-180.degree. C., preferably from 130.degree.-160.degree. C. The process can be carried out continuously or in a batch process on a fixed bed and is particularly applicable to conjugated methyl esters obtained by conjugating and transesterifying sunflower seed oil. The oligomerized products obtained are particularly useful as lubricants or polycondensation reactants.
摘要:
Dialkyl malonate/alkyl acrylate Michael addition product mixtures having at least three acceptor moieties in a substantial number of the molecules can be consistently prepared without the need for long reaction times or the use of a large excess of the acceptor when the reaction is effected by gradually adding one molar proportion of a dialkyl malonate to at least three molar proportions of an alkyl acrylate which has been preheated to 60.degree.-80.degree. C. in admixture with an initiator and a phase transfer catalyst. In a preferred embodiment, the preheated mixture is maintained at 60.degree.-80.degree. C. for at least one hour before the dialkyl malonate is added in order to increase the percentage of product composed of the heavier components.
摘要:
The invention provides (meth)acrylic oligomers prepared from C1-C20 alkyl and C5-C20 cycloalkyl (meth)acrylates, wherein said oligomers have a Mn of about 300 g/mole to about 3,000 g/mole; a Mw of about 700 g/mole to about 6,000 g/mole; a Mz of about 900 g/mole to about 10,000 g/mole. The oligomers may have a Yellowness Index, according to ASTM E313 of less than 2. The oligomers of the invention are useful as tackifiers in adhesive compositions, but also are believed to be useful also in general polymer modification as plasticizers, leveling agents, viscosity reducers (i.e., rheology modifiers), and for increasing solids content in solvent-borne applications of all types with little detrimental impact on viscosity. The invention also provides adhesive compositions and laminate articles coated on at least one side with the adhesive compositions of the invention.
