In this study, the catalytic dehydration of methyl lactate over a calcium sulfate catalyst, with various promoters, has been carried out to identify potential catalyst/promoter combinations for acrylate production. The best catalyst for methyl acrylate formation in this study has been calcium sulfate, with cupric sulfate and phosphates as promoters. The optimal mass ratio of m（CaSOa） ： m（CuSOa） ： m（Na2HPO4） ： m（KH2PO4） is 150.0 ： 13.8 ： 2.5 ： 1.2. Effects of carrier gas, reaction temperature, feed concentration as well as contact time on the dehydration of methyl lactate have been investigated. With nitrogen as a carrier gas, a combined yield of acrylic acid and methyl acrylate is 63.9% from 60% （by mass） methyl lactate at 400℃ with 7.7 seconds contact time.展开更多

The structures of PUPA and PUCA were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR）, IH nuclear magnetic resonance （^H NMR）, gel permeation chromatography （GPC） and differential scanning calorimeter （DSC）, and the thermal stability and dynamic mechanical thermal properties of their cured films were measured by thermogravimetric analysis （TGA） and dynamic mechanical analysis （DMA）, respectively. The viscosity of the oligomers and mechanical properties of the cured films were also studied. The results show that both oligomers have narrow molecular weight distribution. The viscosity of PUPA is 2.310 Pa.s at 25 ℃, while that of PUCA is： up to 3.980 Pa-s. The UV cured PUPA and PUCA films have homogeneous phase structure, and the PUCA film shows higher glass transition temperature and storage modulus. Furthermore, the PUCA film possesses better mechanical properties than PUPA, while the latter shows better alkali resistance.展开更多

The relatively small particle size of the PUA dispersions indicates that the PUA prepolymers exhibit sufficient aqueous dispersibility. The PUA prepolymers can substantially lower the interfacial tension of water. Chain-extended PUA dispersions exhibit pseudoplastic behavior and thixotropy to a greater extent than do their conventional counterpart. The chain-extended and grafted PUA photocure to higher conversion than do the conventional PU equivalent. The results of DSC measurement suggest that there exists phase mixing between the hard and the soft segment phases for the PUAs based on PEG 400 that is the comparatively short soft segment in the prepolymer. For the PUA prepolymers based on PEG having higher M-n values, chain-extending and grafting could impede the phase separation between the hard and the soft segment domains. The adhesion, impact strength and flexibility of the photocured films were tested.展开更多

The effects of monomer emulsion feed rates (R(a)) and (R/E)(E) values, the ratio of emulsifier amount between the initial charge (R) and the addition monomer emulsion (E), on the polymerization reaction features, the viscosities, surface tensions,particle sizes and particle sizes distributions of latexes, T-g and the insoluble fractions of films, the 180 degrees peel strength, tack and holding power of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) tapes, prepared from the latexes, were studied. Experimental study shows that the grafting and crosslinking fraction in the PSA tapes must be controlled within a suitable range to keep the balance of the 180 degrees peel strength, tack and holding power.展开更多

Effective initiations and high molecular weight polymers with unimodal molecular weight distributions could be easily obtained by varying the reaction parameters of systems under mild conditions. Although these aluminum compounds were inefficient initiators for methyl methacrylate （MMA） polymerization, they exhibited remarkable catalytic activity for butyl methacrylate （BMA） polymerization, affording high molecular weight poly（BMA）s.展开更多
