Here, the mixed dispersants sorbitan monooleate (Span80) and polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) were introduced to the terpolymerization system in an attemptto mitigate the gel effect. This enabled the preparation of high-performance amphoteric polyacrylamides, which werecharacterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The influences of the dispersanttype and content as well as the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) on the gel effect were examined, and the mechanismunderlying the suppression of the gel effect was considered. The obtained results indicated that the gel effect can beeffectively mitigated using an aqueous adiabatic terpolymerization system containing mixed Span 80/Tween 80 dispersantsat various contents. In particular, mixed dispersant contents of 0.6%–0.8% with HLB values of 5.0–6.0 afforded the optimalperformance (e.g., high viscosity, fast aqueous dissolution time, and the like).展开更多

The kinetic expression is Rpα[I]0.8[Sty] 1.2[VA] 1.4 [AN]1.2. The terpolymer composition was determined by the Kelen-Tüdos method.

The yield of the co- polymerization was between 69.7 and 111.7 g/(g Zn), corresponding to L-LA/PO molar feed ratio varying from 0 to 0.1, and the number average molecular weight was between 5.5×10^4 and 11.9 × 10^4. The L-LA content in the ter- polymer increased from 1.1% to 34.7% when L-LA/PO molar feed ratio changed from 0.01 to 0.1. Introducing L-LA as the third comonomer could significantly improve the mechanical strength and thermal stability of PPC. For the terpolymer obtained from L-LA/PO molar feed ratio of 1:50, the elongation at break reached 40.5%, which is 3 times of that of pure PPC, and the thermal decomposition temperature increased by 32℃ compared with pure PPC.展开更多

The reaction conditions were studied and optimized. A tracking research on the polymerization process of TDI was taken by using the GPC. The formation processes of the terpolymer, oligomers and higher-polymers were also dealt with. Results show that the TDI terpolymer can be prepared in the presence of Cat-3 catalyst and at the reaction temperature of (60 ±2)℃. The reaction time is short, its outcomes have narrow molecular weights distribution, namely molecular weights from 530 to 550, Mw/Mn =1.10, and the mass fraction of NCO is (25. 0 ± 0. 5)%. With the reaction time prolonging, however, TDI can be further higher-polymedzed to form higher-polymers. Benzoyl chloride (0. 4%, mass fraction), as the stabilizing agent, can effectively inhibit the occurrence of higher-polymerization. The obtained TDI terpolymer can be stable for more than half a year.展开更多

The conversion of epoxides dramatically increased up to 89.7% (yield: 384.2 g of polymer per g of Zn) with increasing reaction temperature from 60℃ to 80℃. The optimized reaction temperature is 80℃. The chemical structure, the molecular weight, as well as thermal and mechanical properties of the resulting terpolymers were investigated extensively. When CHO feed content (mol%) is lower than 10%, the PPCHC terpolymers have number average molecular weight (Ma) ranging from 102 × 10^3 to 202 × 10^3 and molecular weight distribution (MWD) values ranging from 2.8 to 3.5. In contrast to poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC), the introduction of small amount of CHO leads to increase in the glass transition temperature from 38.0℃ to 42.6℃. Similarly, the mechanical strength of the synthesized terpolymer is greatly enhanced due to the incorporation of CHO. These improvements in mechanical and thermal properties are of importance for the practical application of PPC.展开更多

Photoinitiated crosslinking of ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) blends filled with calcium carbonate, talc and calcined kaolin (CK) in the presence of benzil dimethyl ketal as photoinitiator and trimethy...Photoinitiated crosslinking of ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) blends filled with calcium carbonate, talc and calcined kaolin (CK) in the presence of benzil dimethyl ketal as photoinitiator and trimethylolpropane triacrylate as crosslinker and their related properties have been studied by different analytical methods, The results from gel content and heat extension determination show that the efficiency ofphotocrosslinking of EPDM increases with increasing the content of diene and its molecular weight. The EPDM blends with 100 phr different inorganic fillers can be photocrosslinked to gel content of above 60% by 5 s UV-irradiation under optimum conditions. Under the same conditions of irradiation, the orders of photocrosslinking rate and final gel content are EPDM/CaCO3 〉 EPDM/talc 〉 EPDM/CK. The data from thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, electrical properties, mechanical tests and scanning electron microscopy show that UV irradiation crosslinking apparently enhances the thermal stability, mechanical properties and electrical properties of the photocrosslinked EPDM/inorganic filler samples. Although the attenuated total-reflection FTIR data show that inorganic fillers can promote the surface photo-oxidation of EPDM/inorganic filler samples with increasing the irradiation time, the above related properties of the photocrosslinked EPDM blends irradiated within 5 s are enough to satisfy many applications in the cable industry.展开更多

The gel-PBED and solPBED were isolated from extraction of tetrahydrofuran (THF), and then they were identified by IR spectroscopy. The maximum oil-absorptivity of gel-PBED produced from the optinum reaction conditions was 8 420% but its swelling rate was very low. The highest oil-absorptivity of photocrosslinked sol-PBED film was 5 800%. Although its oil absorbency was not as high as gel-PBED' s, swelling rate was higher than that of gelPBED and was suitable for commercial purpose. After swelling in oil, neither gel PBED nor photocrosslinked sol-PBED film having high oil-absorptivity had sufficient mechanical strength to be taken out of oil wholly. As is known, composite technique is one of the useful methods for reinforcing them. Fibers, sponges and non-woven cloths were used as reinforcers or supporters in this work. Oil-absorptivities and swelling kinetics were evaluated by method ASTM (F726 - 81 ) and an experimental equation. The mechanical properties and the morphologies of some composites were measured by tensile tester and SEM , respectively.展开更多

The mechanical properties and the crystal morphological structures of the dynamically photocrosslinked polypropylene(PP)/ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer(EPDM) blends have been studied by means of mechanical tests,...The mechanical properties and the crystal morphological structures of the dynamically photocrosslinked polypropylene(PP)/ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer(EPDM) blends have been studied by means of mechanical tests, wide-angle X-ray diffraction(WAXD), and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). The dynamically photocrosslinking of the PP/EPDM blends can improve the mechanical properties considerably, especially the notched Izod impact strength at low temperatures. The data obtained from the mechanical tests show that the notched Izod impact strength of the dynamically photocrosslinked sample with 30% EPDM at -20 ℃ is about six times that of the uncrosslinked sample with the same EPDM component. The results from the gel content, the results of WAXD, and the DSC measurements reveal the enhanced mechanism of the impact strength for the dynamically photocrosslinked PP/EPDM blends as follows: (1) There exists the crosslinking of the EPDM phase in the photocrosslinked PP/EPDM blends; (2) The β-type crystal structure of PP is formed and the content of α-type crystal decreases with increasing the EPDM component; (3) The graft copolymer of PP-g-EPDM is formed at the interface between the PP and EPDM components. All the above changes of the crystal morphological structures are favorable for increasing the compatibility and enhancing the toughness of the PP/EPDM blends at low temperatures.展开更多

The chain composition and structure of the copolymer were analyzed with conductometry and NMR, and the chain sequence was determined as alternating. The copolymerization rates at different feed ratios, temperatures and in different solvents were investigated, giving evidence to the very active involvement of the CT complexes in the copolymerization. Terpolymerization with acrylonitrile also showed that the complex mechanism was a proper one for this system.展开更多

Owing to ...The transition behaviour of the blends of isotactic polypropylene (i-PP) with ethylene-propylene terpolymer (EPDM) containing 42 wt% propylene was investigated by dynamic mechanical analysis technique (DMA). Owing to its high propylene content, EPDM is compatible with i-PP to some degree. The interaction between the two components was strengthened. As expected, for partially compatible system the glass transition temperature of i-PP in the blends shifted to lower temperature. It was found that there existed two transitions, αEPDM and βEPDM, for the EPDM used in this work. The former was considered to be the glass transition of the random chain segments of EPDM, while the latter the local motion of the long ethylene sequences in EPDM. The unusual transition behaviour of αEPDM in the blends was explained in terms of the greater thermal expansion of EPDM and the compatibility of the two components. On the other hand, the βEPDM changed with the composition of the blends in a regular manner.展开更多

In contrast to poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC), the introduction of small amount of CHO leads to increase in the glass transition temperature from 38.0℃ to 42.6℃. Similarly, the mechanical strength of the synthesized terpolymer is greatly enhanced due to the incorporation of CHO. These improvements in mechanical and thermal properties are of importance for the practical application of PPC.

文摘This contribution reports an efficient approach for preparing polycarbonate block terpolymers by immortal stepwise copolymerization of CO2 with different epoxides in the presence of enol chain transfer,mediated by robust cobalt catalyst systems consisting of the fluorine substituted salen Co(Ⅲ)NO3 or biphenol-linker bimetallic Co(Ⅲ)complex in conjunction with an ionic cocatalyst,PPNX(PPN=bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium,X=NO3–or 2,4-dinitrophenoxide).Various polycarbonate block terpolymers were obtained in perfectly unimodal distribution of their molecular weights with narrow polydispersity.They all possessed only one broad glass transition temperature,which could be adjusted by altering the length of different polycarbonate segments.

文摘Photoinitiated crosslinking of ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) blends filled with calcium carbonate, talc and calcined kaolin (CK) in the presence of benzil dimethyl ketal as photoinitiator and trimethylolpropane triacrylate as crosslinker and their related properties have been studied by different analytical methods, The results from gel content and heat extension determination show that the efficiency ofphotocrosslinking of EPDM increases with increasing the content of diene and its molecular weight. The EPDM blends with 100 phr different inorganic fillers can be photocrosslinked to gel content of above 60% by 5 s UV-irradiation under optimum conditions. Under the same conditions of irradiation, the orders of photocrosslinking rate and final gel content are EPDM/CaCO3 〉 EPDM/talc 〉 EPDM/CK. The data from thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, electrical properties, mechanical tests and scanning electron microscopy show that UV irradiation crosslinking apparently enhances the thermal stability, mechanical properties and electrical properties of the photocrosslinked EPDM/inorganic filler samples. Although the attenuated total-reflection FTIR data show that inorganic fillers can promote the surface photo-oxidation of EPDM/inorganic filler samples with increasing the irradiation time, the above related properties of the photocrosslinked EPDM blends irradiated within 5 s are enough to satisfy many applications in the cable industry.
文摘4-tert-butylstyrene-EPDM-divinylbenzene graft terpolymer (PBED) was prepared by graft cross-polymerization in toluene using BPO as an initiator. The gel-PBED and solPBED were isolated from extraction of tetrahydrofuran (THF), and then they were identified by IR spectroscopy. The maximum oil-absorptivity of gel-PBED produced from the optinum reaction conditions was 8 420% but its swelling rate was very low. The highest oil-absorptivity of photocrosslinked sol-PBED film was 5 800%. Although its oil absorbency was not as high as gel-PBED' s, swelling rate was higher than that of gelPBED and was suitable for commercial purpose. After swelling in oil, neither gel PBED nor photocrosslinked sol-PBED film having high oil-absorptivity had sufficient mechanical strength to be taken out of oil wholly. As is known, composite technique is one of the useful methods for reinforcing them. Fibers, sponges and non-woven cloths were used as reinforcers or supporters in this work. Oil-absorptivities and swelling kinetics were evaluated by method ASTM (F726 - 81 ) and an experimental equation. The mechanical properties and the morphologies of some composites were measured by tensile tester and SEM , respectively.

文摘Amphiphilic terpolymer(TPR) exhibits good film-forming behavior on pure water observed by means ofπ-A isotherms.To gain insight into physical properties of TPR,the films have been deposited on silicon substrates at different surface pressure by Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) technique.It was found that the increase in peak intensities of stretching mode was due to orderly packing of the films.The contact angles increased with increasing surface pressure,indicating an increase in hydrophobicity due to dense packing of chains of TPR.The cyclic voltammetric measurements indicated that TPR showed good current shielding effect for electron-transfer.In a word,LB films of TPR can produce a variety of structures with varied topography,enabling us to control not only the functionality of the surface,but also the interfacial transport characteristics.
文摘The mechanical properties and the crystal morphological structures of the dynamically photocrosslinked polypropylene(PP)/ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer(EPDM) blends have been studied by means of mechanical tests, wide-angle X-ray diffraction(WAXD), and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). The dynamically photocrosslinking of the PP/EPDM blends can improve the mechanical properties considerably, especially the notched Izod impact strength at low temperatures. The data obtained from the mechanical tests show that the notched Izod impact strength of the dynamically photocrosslinked sample with 30% EPDM at -20 ℃ is about six times that of the uncrosslinked sample with the same EPDM component. The results from the gel content, the results of WAXD, and the DSC measurements reveal the enhanced mechanism of the impact strength for the dynamically photocrosslinked PP/EPDM blends as follows: (1) There exists the crosslinking of the EPDM phase in the photocrosslinked PP/EPDM blends; (2) The β-type crystal structure of PP is formed and the content of α-type crystal decreases with increasing the EPDM component; (3) The graft copolymer of PP-g-EPDM is formed at the interface between the PP and EPDM components. All the above changes of the crystal morphological structures are favorable for increasing the compatibility and enhancing the toughness of the PP/EPDM blends at low temperatures.

文摘The charge-transfer complex of maleic anhydride and vinyl acetate was copolymerized under UV light. The chain composition and structure of the copolymer were analyzed with conductometry and NMR, and the chain sequence was determined as alternating. The copolymerization rates at different feed ratios, temperatures and in different solvents were investigated, giving evidence to the very active involvement of the CT complexes in the copolymerization. Terpolymerization with acrylonitrile also showed that the complex mechanism was a proper one for this system.

文摘A series of linear poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(4-vinylbenzyl chloride)-b-poly(4-tert-butylstyrene)(PEO_(113)-b-PVBC_(130)-b-Pt BS_(x)or E_(113)V_(130)T_(x))triblock terpolymers with various lengths x(=20,33,66,104,215)of Pt BS block were synthesized via a two-step reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer(RAFT)polymerization.The E_(113)V_(130)T_(x)triblock terpolymers were non-crystalline because the PVBC and Pt BS blocks strongly hindered the crystallization of PEO block.The effects of Pt BS block length x on the phase structures of E_(113)V_(130)T_(x)triblock terpolymers were investigated by combined techniques of small-angle X-ray scattering(SAXS)and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).It was found that with increasing x from20 to 215,the phase structure of E_(113)V_(130)T_(x)triblock terpolymers became more ordered and changed from disordered structure,hexagonally-packed cylinder(HEX),hexagonally perforated layer(HPL),to lamellar(LAM)phase structures.Temperature-variable SAXS measurements showed that the HEX,HPL and LAM phase structures obtained for E_(113)V_(130)T_(66),E_(113)V_(130)T_(104)and E_(113)V_(130)T_(215)by thermal annealing,respectively,were thermodynamically stable in the temperature range of 30-170℃.

文摘The transition behaviour of the blends of isotactic polypropylene (i-PP) with ethylene-propylene terpolymer (EPDM) containing 42 wt% propylene was investigated by dynamic mechanical analysis technique (DMA). Owing to its high propylene content, EPDM is compatible with i-PP to some degree. The interaction between the two components was strengthened. As expected, for partially compatible system the glass transition temperature of i-PP in the blends shifted to lower temperature. It was found that there existed two transitions, αEPDM and βEPDM, for the EPDM used in this work. The former was considered to be the glass transition of the random chain segments of EPDM, while the latter the local motion of the long ethylene sequences in EPDM. The unusual transition behaviour of αEPDM in the blends was explained in terms of the greater thermal expansion of EPDM and the compatibility of the two components. On the other hand, the βEPDM changed with the composition of the blends in a regular manner.

文摘The theory of chemical shift effect of substituent was applied to the assignment of the 13 C NMR spectra of the ethylene/propylene and ethylene/octene 1 copolymers. Using the parameters derived above and the DEPT technique, we then entirely assigned the 13 C NMR spectra of the ethylene/propylene/octene 1 terpolymers synthesized in the presence of the same heterogeneous supported Ziegler Natta catalyst, TiCl 4/MgCl 2/ i Bu 3Al. The present paper also covers the terpolymer composition and the monomer sequence distributions of a series of ethylene/propylene/octene 1 terpolymers.
