    Notes: The degradation of blends of PVA and PMMA in the form of films cast from a common solution of the polymers has been studied by TVA, TG, and EGA (evolved gas analysis) for acetic acid. Volatile degradation products have been characterized by spectroscopic and GLC techniques. Molecular weight, spectral and thermal stability changes in PMMA extracted from partially degraded blends have been examined. These blends behave in a closely analogous manner to PVC-PMMA blends already investigated. The results suggest that the PMMA component of the heterogeneous blends is modified in two ways: (1) in a destabilization reaction series initiated by attack of acetate radicals generated in the PVA phase which migrate into the PMMA phase, and (2) in a stabilization reaction involving conversion of ester side groups to acid and subsequently to anhydride ring structures which act as blocking points for depolymerization. The rate of acetic acid production in the blend is less than in PVA degraded alone. The mechanism of degradation of PVA is reconsidered in the light of these results.

    Notes: Acrylic acid (AA) and N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) were copolymerized in aqueous solution at 30°C in the pH range 4-9 and the monomer reactivity ratios (r1 for AA and r2 for NVP) were determined as a function of pH from the high conversion data by using both the differential (YBR) and the integrated copolymerization equations. The value of r1 decreased from 5.2 at pH 4 to a minimum of 1.3 at pH 5 and then increased to 8.1, 6.6, and 7.2 at pH 7, 8, and 9, respectively. Addition of 1M NaCl at pH 6.5 restored the r1 nearly to that at pH 4, the predominantly un-ionized acid. The r2 values for NVP were nearly zero at all pH values except at pH 5. The variation of the reactivity ratios with pH was examined in terms of the electrostatic interactions between the ionized monomer molecules, the rate of homopolymerization of acrylic acid, and the cation binding to the poly(acrylic acid) molecules. The r2 values for NVP compared favorably with the literature values reported in bulk and organic solvent systems, although r1 values are much higher.

    Notes: γ-Crotonolactone and styrene copolymerize alternately in the presence of stannic chloride at -10°C under photoirradiation. The intrinsic viscosity of the resulting copolymer is in the range of 0.6-0.8 dl/g at 30°C in chloroform. The equilibrium constants for the complex formation between stannic chloride and γ-crotonolactone were determined in 1,2-dichloroethane-toluene solution at 0 and -20°C by use of absorption band at 350 nm. Continuous variation plots based on the 1H-chemical shift show a 1:1 interaction between styrene and the γ-crotonolactone coordinated to stannic chloride. The equilibrium constants for the ternary molecular complex formation between the coordinated γ-crotonolactone and styrene were determined in 1,2-dichloroethane in the temperature range from -20 to 0°C. The equilibrium constants, derived independently from the measurements of the nonequivalent protons in γ-crotonolactone, are equal to each other within the experimental error. The mechanism of the alternating copolymerization of γ-crotonolactone and styrene in the presence of stannic chloride is discussed in terms of the homopolymerization of the ternary molecular complex.

    Notes: Two oligomeric polyaryl ether-ketone-sulfones with acetylenic end groups have been prepared. These materials which are low melting and readily soluble in organic solvents on heating undergo reactions which are presumably trimerizations of the terminal acetylenic groups to give cured polymers which do not soften until about 200°C and which are stable in circulating air at 300°C with less than 10% weight loss in 10 days.

    Notes: The time-averaged orientation of the styrene molecule in the ternary molecular complex composed of stannic chloride, γ-crotonolactone, and styrene is determined by use of 1H-chemical shifts of the nonequivalent protons of the γ-crotonolactone. The chemical shift change for each of the various protons of the γ-crotonolactone on the ternary molecular complex formation can be represented by the anisotropic shielding effect of the benzene ring of one oriented styrene molecule. This fact indicates that the ternary molecular complex has a definite time-averaged conformation, though the “complexing” styrene molecule exchanges between in the oriented state and in the free state more rapidly than the time scale of the 1H-NMR spectrometry. The magnitudes of the Coulomb, induction, dispersion, charge-transfer, and exchange-repulsion energies between the γ-crotonolactone and the styrene in the ternary molecular complex are estimated by use of the result of the extended Hückel calculation and that of absorption spectrometry. The Coulomb and dispersion forces between the carboryl group of the coordinated γ-crotonolactone and the benzene ring of the styrene function mainly in the ternary molecular complex formation. Both the induction force and the charge-transfer force make a small contribution to the ternary molecular complex formation.

    Notes: The conductance of acetone and methyl ethyl ketone solutions of tetraphenylborate salts in the presence of homopolymers and styrene copolymers of vinylbenzo-15-crown-5 and vinylbenzo-18-crown-6 was studied, and the results compared with data obtained for crown ethers. Polycations are formed on binding cations to the poly(crown ethers), and the conductance behavior of the polyelectrolytes depends on the nature of the cation-crown complex and the spacing between crown moieties which in turn determines the charge density on the polymer chain. The compositions of the crown-cation complexes were determined for crown ethers. The complex formation constants of sodium and potassium cations to poly(vinylbenzo-18-crown-6) were found to change as more cations bind to the chain. This is not the case for the copolymers where the crown ligands are spaced farther apart. A mixture of poly(vinylbenzo-15-crown-5) and 10-3M potassium tetraphenylborate in methyl ethyl ketone or acetone has a minimum conductance at a crown to cation ratio of 3.0, but the conductance rapidly increases on addition of crown ether. This was used to qualitatively determine the binding efficiency of a series of crown ethers since the rate of increase in the conductance is a measure of the binding ability of the crown ether to the cation.

    Notes: High molecular weight copolyesters were prepared by the acidolysis of poly(ethylene terephthalate) with p-acetoxybenzoic acid and polycondensation through the acetate and carboxyl groups. The mechanical properties of the injection-molded copolyesters containing 40-90 mole-% p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHB) were highly anisotropic and dependent upon the PHB content, polyester molecular weight, injection-molding temperature, and specimen thickness. As the injection-molding temperature increased and the specimen thickness decreased, the tensile strength, stiffness, and Izod impact strength increased when measured along the direction of flow of the polymer melt, and the coefficient of thermal expansion was zero. In some compositions these properties were superior to those of commercial glass fiber reinforced polyesters. Maximum tensile strengths, flexural moduli, notched Izod impact strengths, and minimum melt viscosities were obtained with polyesters containing 60-70 mole-% PHB. Higher oxygen indicies (39-40) and heat deflection temperatures (150-220°C) were obtained with 80-90 mole-% PHB.

    Notes: The effect of dissolved polybutadiene on the initial rate of polymerization of styrene was investigated by using high-precision dilatometric techniques. The dissolved polymer reduced the rate of polymerization by amounts greater than can be accounted for by a reduction in monomer concentration. Rate reductions increased with the amount of dissolved polybutadiene and with its molecular weight and were greater for benzoyl peroxide initiator than for equal concentrations of azobisisobutyronitrile. Surprisingly, analogous rate reductions were observed when polystyrene were substituted for the polybutadienes, except that at high polystyrene concentrations, the expected autoacceleration was observed. These rate reductions showed no correlation with the viscosity of the reaction mass, nor did the dissolved polymer affect initiator efficiency. At a given level of a particular dissolved polybutadiene, rate reductions were diminished by increasing levels of each initiator, and by adding a chain-transfer agent. Good quantitative agreement was obtained with the number-average length of the growing polymer chains, whether varied by using different initiators, changing initiator level, or adding chain-transfer agent. These results are inconsistent with a chemical mechanism, but they are explained by a proposal originated by North and Reed whereby the dissolved polymer makes the reaction mass a “poorer” solvent for the growing polymer chains, reducing their overall coil dimensions and enhancing their rate of diffusion together for termination.

    Notes: Acidic dehydration by p-toluenesulfonic acid at 250°C converts poly(alkylene oxides) into dioxane derivatives which can be separated by gas-liquid chromatography. This procedure has been developed as an analytical technique for characterizing some aspects of the molecular structure of polymers of ethylene and propylene oxides. Experimental data on homopolymers, their blends, and some model copolymers have shown that the method is capable of distinguishing between copolymers of different structures, giving correct overall comonomer contents and also ranking copolymers according to their degrees of blockiness.

    Notes: Preirradiation polymerization of the styrene-silica gel system was studied in detail. Both graft polymers and homopolymers have bimodal GPC spectra. High molecular weight peaks were formed in a radical mechanism and the low molecular weight peaks were formed in a cationic mechanism as same as those in the simultaneous irradiation polymerization. The rate of formation of the low molecular weight peaks was very high compared with that of the high molecular weight peaks. Monomer conversion and percent grafting leveled off at about 1-2 Mrad. Radiation dose dependence of the four peaks were different from each other. Monomer conversion and percent grafting decreased as the preheating temperature of silica gel increased. The amount of the low molecular weight peaks of graft polymers depended on the number of silanol groups, as in the case of the simultaneous irradiation polymerization. A reaction mechanism for the preirradiation polymerization is proposed based on the results obtained.

    Notes: The reaction of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVAL) with V(V), i.e., pentavalent vanadium ion, was studied in aqueous H2SO4 medium. The viscosity change of reaction mixture with time showed a peculiar feature owing to formation of labile complex between V(V) and PVAL and the subsequent decomposition of the complex. On the other hand, the change of viscosity disappeared when NaOH was added during the reaction to neutralize H2SO4 in the reaction mixture. Under a suitable condition, the reaction mixture set to a gel as a result of complex formation. It appeared that reactive sites in PVAL responsive to complexing with V(V) were 1,2-glycol unit and 1,2-ketoalcohol unit resulting from the oxidation of 1,2-glycol by V(V). The rate of oxidation was increased with increasing H2SO4 concentration. The main-chain scission of PVAL took place to an insignificant extent, unless the reaction condition was severe. Based on the results obtained a reaction mechanism has been proposed.

    Notes: In a radiation-induced emulsion copolymerization of tetrafluoroethylene with propylene, the effects of pressure and temperature were investigated in the range of 0-40 kg/cm2 and 7-53°C at emulsifier concentration of 0.5 and 2.0%. Both the polymerization rate and the molecular weight of copolymer increase with increasing pressure and decreasing temperature. These facts are mainly due to an increase of the monomer concentration in the polymer particles. The rate of polymer chain formation was found to be independent of pressure and temperature. The initiation reaction is due mainly to the entry of radicals generated in the aqueous phase into the polymer particles. The apparent activation energy is -2.0 to -3.8 kcal/mole for the polymerization in the presence of 0.5% emulsifier, but is nearly zero at an emulsifier concentration of 2.0%. This difference in apparent activation energies at emulsifier concentrations of 0.5 and 2.0% is explained in terms of the termination mechanisms.

    Notes: Free-radical formation in various modifications of celluloses, namely, wood cellulose I, II, III, and IV, rayon cellulose, amorphous cellulose, cotton linters, and absorbent cotton, irradiated with ultraviolet light, has been studied by means of ESR spectroscopy at 77°K. Various types of free radicals were generated from these samples. The line shapes and the signal intensities of the ESR spectra depended greatly upon the degree of crystallinity, the lattice type, and the arrangement of molecules in cellulose. The effect of degree of crystallinity and the amount of sensitizer (Fe3+) absorbed revealed that photochemical reactions in cellulose occurred exclusively in the amorphous regions of the polymer. Free radicals formed in these samples behaved distinctively upon a warm-up process. Phenomena of radical migration and formation of new radicals were observed from the sensitized samples of rayon cellulose and amorphous cellulose.

    Notes: Structural changes in wool fibers after annealing, i.e., storage at 45°C and 80% RH, have been investigated by using the method of laser Raman spectroscopy and by measuring birefringence and density of wool. The results show that CH2 groups in wool give parallel Raman dichroism which increases very significantly after annealing. No increase in birefringence and density occurred after annealing. A hypothesis has been put forward which states that for minimum energy considerations in wool fibers the existence of intrahelix crosslinks other than hydrogen bonds is important. It is highly probable that a large number of electrovalent intrahelix crosslinkages exist between the suitable side groups on the main polypeptide chain in the α-helix of annealed wool.

    Notes: Stable vinyl acetate macroradicals were produced by polymerization in a nonviscous poor solvent, a viscous good solvent and a viscous poor solvent. These macroradicals were then allowed to react with a second vinyl monomer to produce block copolymers. The formation of block copolymers was monitored for rate and yield data. The block copolymers produced were poly(vinyl acetate-b-methyl methacrylate), poly(vinyl acetate-b-acrylic acid), poly(vinyl acetate-b-vinylpyrrolidone), poly(vinyl acetate-b-acrylonitrile), poly(vinyl acetate-b-styrene), and poly(vinyl acetate-b-methyl acrylate). The block copolymers were characterized by yield, precipitation in selected solvents, pyrolysis gas chromatography, and differential scanning calorimetry.

    Notes: Polymeric donors having ether or carbonyl groups were added to the TiCI3-AlEt2CI catalyst system as the third component, and the effects on the polymerization of propylene were investigated in comparison with the effect of the electron donors with low molecular weight. The polymeric donors were effective in making the catalyst more active, but the donors of low molecular weight depressed the catalyst activity. In the case of poly(propylene glycol dimethyl ether) (PPG-DME), PPG-DME with a number of propylene oxide units (n) of more than 6.7 was effective in enhancing the catalyst activity. These effects were considered to be due to the different reactivities between TiCI3 and AlEt2CI-polymeric donor complexes having various chain lengths.

    Notes: Irradiation of sodium allylsulfonate in aqueous solution at high pressure (up to 9000 kg/cm2) gave a deliquescent white powder which is insoluble in organic solvent. The product was addition polymer of allylsulfonate from the high-resolution NMR and infrared spectra. The rate of polymerization was proportional to the third and second powers of monomer concentration in the initial and later stages, respectively. From the high dependence of the rate on monomer concentration, the reaction was deduced to proceed in an associated monomer or micelle. The rate of polymerization was increased by addition of sodium chloride. The G value for monomer consumption was about 104 at high pressure, which suggests that the degradative chain transfer is not important in the polymerization. Overall activation volumes were -7 and -5 ml/mole in the initial and later stages, respectively.

    Notes: An investigation by 220-MHz NMR spectroscopy was carried out on the alternating copolymers of acrylic monomer with 2-substituted 1,3-diolefin. The chain structures were determined. The acrylic monomers used were methyl methacrylate (MMA), acrylonitrile (AN), and methacrylonitrile (MAN); isoprene (IP) and chloroprene (CLP) were the 1,3-diolefins. In the MAN-IP alternating copolymer, the 1-position methylene protons of IP showed an AB quartet peak, confirming the α-1 linkage structure. Similarly, in the MMA-CLP and AN-CLP copolymers, the 1-position methylene protons of CLP showed and AB quartet and an ABX pattern, respectively, confirming the α-1 linkage structure in both these cases also. The α-1 linkage structure was also revealed by the decoupling technique in the MAN-CLP alternating copolymer. The AN-IP and MMA-IP alternating copolymers also possess a bond between the α-position of the acrylic monomer and the 1-position of IP. The monomeric units in the alternating copolymers of acrylic monomers with 2-substituted 1,3-diolefins were generally linked at the α-position of acrylic monomer and the 1-position of 1,3-diolefin. On the other hand, in the Diels-Alder adducts of acrylic monomer with 2-substituted 1,3-diolefin, the reaction takes place between the α-position of acrylic monomer and the 4-position of 1,3-diolefin.The regioselectivity of the alternating copolymers and the Diels-Alder adducts is quite compatible with the expectations from molecular orbital theory.

    Notes: To determine the effect of the dissociation of propagating species on the relative reactivity of monomers, 2-chloroethyl vinyl ether was copolymerized with p-methoxystyrene or with p-methylstyrene by using iodine in various solvents at 0°C. A common-ion salt (tetra-n-butylammonium iodide or tetra-n-butylammonium triiodide) was added to these copolymerization systems in a polar solvent to depress the dissociation of the propagating species. The addition of a common-ion salt increased the vinyl ether content in the copolymer. The more the dissociation of propagating species was depressed, the more the vinyl ether content in the copolymer increased. This effect of common-ion salt was in agreement with that of decreasing solvent polarity which yielded vinyl ether-rich copolymer as well. Therefore, the change of the monomer reactivity ratio by the solvent polarity, which used to be explained in terms of a selective solvation, must be reconsidered from the viewpoint of varying degrees of the dissociation of propagating species.

    Notes: A new synthesis for the polycondensation of oxalic acid and glycerol was used. Polycondensation was carried out in the presence of compounds that do not dissolve oxalic acid and glycerol, but form an azeotropic mixture with water below 100°C. Anhydrous oxalic acid and oxalic acid dihydrate was used for the synthesis of oligoesters. The decarboxylation proceeds parallel with polycondensation of oxalic acid and glycerol was investigated. Decarboxylation of carboxyl groups of glycerol monooxalate was found to be accelerated by the arrangement of primary and secondary hydroxyl groups in the glycerol molecule in the 1,2 position.

    Notes: The rate and molecular weight profiles were obtained for the spontaneous alternating copolymerizations conducted with diethylaluminum chloride. The rate formally fitted an expression, R = kp[MMA][Sty], and the rate constant was established by two distinct methods: (1) from the yield versus time data and (2) from initial rate over a range of initial concentrations; it was determined as 5.4 × 10-6 l./mole-sec with Ea = 4.2 kcal/mole. Molecular weights were determined by gel-permeation chromatography. No increase in molecular weight was observed with increased reaction time. Thus living centers or diradicals are not involved in the process. The M̄n shows a steady decrease with increase in monomer-diethylaluminum chloride concentration but the rate is maximum at equimolar monomer concentrations. The data are interpreted on a chain-transfer mechanism and show close agreement to a model in which the excess complexed acceptor monomer is the transfer agent. The chain-transfer constant of 7.1 × 10-4 l./mole-sec is several orders of magnitude greater than for uncomplexed systems.

    Notes: A new and useful class of aromatic amines, based on multichlorinated benzenes and polyphenyls, has been developed. The amines are prepared by reacting the alkali metal salt of p-aminophenol with the chloroaromatics under nucleophilic substitution reaction conditions. Oligomeric amines can be obtained by condensing, e.g., the dialkali salt of bisphenol A and the alkali metal salt of p-aminophenol with the chloroaromatics. The products are mixtures of mono-, di-, and triamines, as a result of the complex functionalities of the chloroaromatics employed. Unique features of the amines include: (1) flame-retarding characteristics; (2) markedly reduced amine reactivity (compared with aniline); (3) thermal stability; (4) good solubility in the usual organic solvents.

    Notes: Pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid phenyl ester was condensed with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine and 3,3′,4,4′-tetraaminodiphenyl ether. Polyamides were also synthesized by condensation of the above ester with p-phenylenediamine, benzidine, 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfide and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone. These amides had higher inherent viscosities and greater thermal stability than was reported before. Model compounds of imidazoles were prepared by condensation of the same ester with o-phenylenediamine and 2,3-diaminopyridine and of polyamides by condensation with aniline and 2-aminopyridine. In the case of the polyimidazole, the completely closed ring of imidazole did not form. The ultraviolet spectra of model compounds were compared with those of the polymers. The thermogravimetric curves show that the polymers are stable up to more than 400°C under argon atmosphere. All polymers were insoluble in most organic and inorganic solvents. They dissolved only partially in DMSO and DMF. Inherent viscosity was measured for the soluble polymer fraction.

    Notes: The effect of the solvent on the inherent viscosity of polyamides was investigated in the polycondensation of new active 1-benzotriazolyl diesters, such as 1,1′-(adipolydioxy)bisbenzotriazole and 1,1′-(isophthaloyldioxy)bisbenzotriazole, with diamines. The preferred polymerization media were polar aprotic solvents, including N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and hexamethylphosphoramide. The solution polycondensation at room temperature afforded a series of polyamides having inherent viscosities as high as 1.8 from both aliphatic and aromatic diamines. The 1-benzotriazolyl diesters were more reactive than di(2,4-dinitrophenyl) isophthalate toward diamines. Prior to polymer synthesis, the aminolysis of some active monoesters was carried out as a model compound study.

    Notes: Caprolactam was copolymerized with 1,5-dioxo-1-methyl-4-azaphosphepane or methylphosphacaprolactam. The molecular weight of the resulting copolymers decreased with increasing concentration of the thermally labile phosphorus moieties. Copolymers based on ≥40% caprolactam were shown to be crystalline by differential scanning calorimetry and x-ray techniques. As the concentration of the phosphorus structures in the copolymers increased, the glass transition and crystallization temperatures increased while the melting temperatures, crystallinities, and thermal stabilities decreased. Melt blends of nylon 6 and polymethylphosphacaprolactam were shown by differential scanning calorimetry, a selective extraction technique, and elemental analysis to contain appreciable amounts of block copolyamides, and no crystalline random structures were detected. The thermal stabilities of the melt blends were similar to those of random copolymers having comparable concentrations of the phosphorus-containing sequences.

    Notes: It was found recently that the system of nylon 3, copper(II) ion, and water could initiate a radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate(MMA). In the present paper, the effect of average chain length of the molecules of nylon 3 on the rate of polymerization of MMA was studied. The rate increased with the chain length of nylon 3. This result was explained well by the fact that the shorter nylon 3 forms a complex with copper (II) ion more easily than longer nylon 3. It was assumed that the shorter nylon 3 fills three or four coordination sites of copper(II) ion and loses the ability to initiate the polymerization. The efficiency of grafting of MMA and the degree of polymerization of MMA homopolymer were independent of the chain length of nylon 3.

    Notes: The γ-ray-induced postpolymerization of acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate adsorbed on Linde zeolite 13X irradiated at 77°K has been studied between 303 and 343°K as a function of the amount of adsorbed monomer and of the irradiation dose. The change in the nature and the concentration of free radical with temperature and duration of the postpolymerization was followed by the ESR method, whereas the formation of polymer was monitored continuously by the decay of the 1H-NMR absorption line of the monomer under high-resolution conditions. It was found that the overall postpolymerization kinetics may be accounted for by assuming an exponential decay of radical propagation and recombination reactions with chain length. The tacticity of the polymer recovered by destroying the matrix in hydrofluoric acid was determined by 13C-NMR. The probability of isotactic addition of AN and MMA is larger than in the radical polymerization in solution owing likely to the association of adsorbed monomer molecules in pairs preforming an isotactic diad.

    Notes: The graft polymerization of styrene onto preirradiated poly(isobutylene oxide) (PIBO) with methanol and benzene was studied. The order of grafting yield and of the number-average molecular weight of graft chains decrease in the order; undiluted styrene 〉 styrene-methanol (1:1) solution 〉 styrene-benzene (1:1) solution. A kinetic treatment to calculate rate constants from the rate of grafting and the molecular weight of the graft chain was proposed. The propagation rate constant kp was 0.2-0.3 l./mole-sec and the termination rate constant kt was 1.0-16.0 l./mole-sec. The ratio kp/kt in this heterogeneous system was larger than that in homogeneous system by a factor of about 104-105.

    Notes: Poly(ethylene terephthalate) copolymers were prepared containing minor amounts of comonomers containing backbone and side-chain ketone groups. The photochemistry of these polymers was studied at 313 nm, both in film and fiber form. It was demonstrated that only the comonomer, dimethyl-γ-ketopimelate (DMKP), gave a copolymer with enhanced sensitivity to ultraviolet degradation in air. Since this sensitivity is reduced in a nitrogen atmosphere, it is suggested that the mechanism involves main-chain scission to form two free radicals by the Norrish type I mechanism, and that recombination of these radicals is reduced by reaction with oxygen. The use of copolymers of this type provides a method for the controlled photodegradation of polyester fibers.

    Notes: The copolymerization of trioxane with cyclic acetals, viz., 1,3-dioxolane, m-dioxane, and 4-methyl-m-dioxane, have been investigated. Three types of catalyst have been employed: a metal chelate, MoO2(AcAc)2; a Lewis acid, BF3·Bu2O; and an ion-pair, It has been ascertained that, in agreement with the previous results on copolymerization of trioxane and ethylene oxide,1 both the polymerization kinetics and the monomer reactivity have been found to be influenced by the catalyst employed. In copolymerization with 1,3-dioxolane, both BF3·Bu2O and have been found to give high molecular weight copolymers with high incorporation of 1,3-dioxolane. However, contrary to the results obtained in copolymerization with ethylene oxide, higher rate and yield have been obtained with BF3·Bu2O, making it a superior catalyst. In copolymerization with m-dioxane, has been found to be a superior catalyst to the others yielding high molecular weight copolymers with high incorporation of m-dioxane. In copolymerization with 4-methyl-m-dioxane, MoO2(AcAc)2 has been found to be an overall superior catalyst to the others. Higher rate, yield, and comonomer incorporation have been obtained using MoO2(AcAc)2 as catalyst, although somewhat higher molecular weight copolymers have been obtained with

    Notes: The synthesis of poly(vinyl chloride-g-butyl rubber) and some of its physical properties are described. The key to the synthesis involves copolymerization initiation of an isobutylene-isoprene charge by a PVC/Et2AlCl initiator system with 1,2-dichloroethane as solvent. The graft is a thermoplastic; cast films are flexible and optically clear. Proof of grafting is the crosslinking with S2Cl2 of the pentane-extracted product in THF solution. Crosslinking the butyl rubber moiety in the graft reduces overall stress properties.

    Notes: The condensation of maleimide compounds with hydrogen sulfide and bisthiols was studied in several model systems. Bismaleimide compounds undergo rapid, exothermic polymerization with thiol-containing compounds in dipolar and basic solvents to give crosslinked polymidothioethers. Effective supression of the crosslinking reaction was achieved by carrying out the polymerization in the presence of a proton donor to inhibit anionic polymerization. A number of linear polyimidothioether homopolymers and copolymers were prepared and a study was made of their properties.

    Notes: The alternating copolymerization of styrene and methyl α-chloroacrylate (MCA) with diethylaluminum chloride (Et2AlCl) in benzene at 0°C has been investigated. The copolymer has an equimolar composition irrespective of the feed monomer composition, the copolymer yield and the amount of Et2AlCl used. The copolymerization proceeds first very rapidly and then rather slowly after attaining a certain yield which varies proportionally to the amount of Et2AlCl used. A maximum copolymer yield is observed at about 60% MCA feed composition. The 1H-NMR analyses of dyad, triad, and pentad of the alternating deuterated α-d-St-MCA copolymer indicate that the configuration of this copolymer can be explained by a single parameter, coisotacticity σ(σ = 0.69). A favorable mechanism of the alternating propagation as well as of the stereoregularity control is discussed.

    Notes: Coisotacticities σ for some alternating copolymers were determined through the analyses of their CH3O, CH3 and CH2 proton NMR spectra; styrene-methyl methacrylate (σ = 0.56), styrene-methyl acrylate (σ = 0.53), styrene-methyl α-chloroacrylate (σ = 0.69), styrene-methacrylonitrile (σ = 0.19), styrene-methacrylamide (σ = 0.16), α-methylstyrene-methyl methacrylate (σ = 0.21), and α-methylstyrene-methyl acrylate (σ = 0.53) were studied. It was found that a terminal model or Bernoullian trial prevails in these complexed copolymerizations with diethylaluminum chloride. The influence of monomer structure on σ values is discussed.

    Notes: The 13C-NMR spectra of hydrogenated polyisoprenes were investigated. Polyisoprenes containing various ratios of 1,4 and 3,4 units were prepared with n-BuLi/Et2O and were hydrogenated by using p-toluenesulfonylhydrazide. 13C-NMR signals of the hydrogenated polymers were assigned for the triad sequences arising respectively from the 1, 4 and 3, 4 units of polyisoprenes. On the basis of these assignments it was confirmed that 1,4 and 3,4 units were randomly distributed in the polyisoprenes prepared with n-BuLi and that these polymers did not contain appreciable amounts of head-to-head or tail-to-tail 1,4 linkages.

    Notes: Two surface analysis techniques (Rutherford backscattering and surface composition by analysis of neutral and ion impact radiation) have been applied to the study of interfacial copper transport in the oxidation of polyethylene films over copper surfaces. Analysis of films oxidized several thousand hours at 40, 57, and 87°C shows maximum concentrations of copper species in the polymer matrix of ∼0.1M extending to depths of several thousand angstroms. These results, together with previous infrared spectroscopic studies, allow some significant conclusions and hypotheses to be drawn as regards the roles of heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic processes which occur in the thermal-oxidative degradation of polyethylene-copper systems.

    Notes: The sequence distributions of α-methylstyrene-methacrylonitrile copolymers have been determined quantitatively as a function of monomer feed composition and conversion at 60°C by use of the run-number concept. The azeotropic copolymer was found to be highly alternating. For this copolymer the data showed that 83% of the diad placements took the form of an AMS unit followed by a MAN unit, or vice versa. The triad sequence in which an AMS unit is centered between two MAN units was 92%. It was found that the AMS-AMS diad sequence is only 2%, and there were no AMS-AMS-AMS triad sequences in the copolymer. The sequence distributions were correlated with Izod impact strength and heat-deflection temperature properties.

    Notes: p-Chlorophenyldiazonium hexafluorophosphate has been reported to be a superior catalyst for cationic polymerization and copolymerization of trioxane as compared to boron trifluoride dibutyl etherate (BF3·Bu2O)1. In the present investigation the effect of anions derived from elements in Group VA, AsF6- and SbF6-, has been ascertained. It has been concluded that p-chlorophenyldiazonium hexafluoroarsenate is also a superior catalyst to boron trifluoride dibutyletherate (BF3·Bu2O), while p-chlorophenyl-diazonium hexafluoroantimonate is inferior.Copolymers with the highest polymer yield (〉95%) and molecular weight (intrinsic viscosity = 4 to 5) were obtained with Simple dependences on catalyst concentration have been observed to hold for a wide catalyst concentration range ([M]/[C]) = (1 to 20) × 105: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \begin{array}{*{20}c} {{\rm polymer yield}} & \prop & {\left[ {{\rm catalyst}} \right]^0 } \\ {{\rm molecular weight}} & \prop & {\left[ {{\rm catalyst}} \right]^{ - 0.5} } \\ {\frac{{\left[ {{\rm chain transfer}} \right]}}{{{\rm catalyst}}}} & \prop & {\left[ {{\rm catalyst}} \right]^{ - 0.5} } \\ \end{array} $\end{document} For the same relationships hold. However, the polymer yield (75%) and molecular weights (intrinsic viscosity ≃1) are considerably lower while the extent of chain transfer is higher. Furthermore, the polymerization proceeds with explosive violence.The quantitative aspects resulting from polymerization, for the most part, can be interpreted in terms of the extent of dissociation of the propagating ions.

    Notes: A series of fluorene and fluorenone diamines were polymerized with two aromatic dianhydrides, and the resulting polyamic acids were cyclodehydrated to aromatic polyimides. A study of the mechanical properties of the polyimide films disclosed they are among the stiffest reported to date, with an excellent retention of rigidity at elevated temperatures. Comparisons of the tensile properties and glass transition temperatures of the fluorene-derived polymer films with those from the corresponding open-chain polyimide films established that the unusual rigidity, especially at elevated temperatures, was in large part due to the contribution of the bulky, tricyclic fluorene (one) moieties in the polymer structures.

    Notes: 1H-NMR spectra of mixtures of a methacrylic monomer such as methacrylonitrile or methyl methacrylate and ethylaluminium dichloride at various molar ratios were measured in toluene or methylene chloride at various temperatures. It was found that only one kind of binary complex is detectable in the methacrylonitrile-ethylaluminum dichloride equimolar mixture, while in nonequimolar systems there are several kinds of binary complexes, depending on the molar ratio at low temperature in these solvents. Moreover, the chemical shifts of the protons of methacrylonitrile due to complex formation with ethylaluminum dichloride show a remarkable temperature dependence in toluene, but not in methylene chloride. This fact can be interpreted by an assumption of the formation of a ternary complex of methacrylonitrile, ethylaluminum dichloride, and aromatic donor molecules, mainly due to the dipole interaction between the nitrile group complexed with ethylaluminum dichloride and aromatic donor. The orientation of toluene molecules in the ternary complex of methacrylonitrile or methyl methacrylate is discussed.

    Notes: The 1:2 stannic chloride-methyl methacrylate complex, the 1:2 stannic chloride-acrylonitrile complex, the ethylaluminum dichloride-methyl methacrylate complex, and the ethylaluminum dichloride-acrylonitrile complex exhibit charge-transfer absorption bands in the wavelength region longer than 300 nm with electron-donating compounds such as mesitylene, styrene, toluene, and butadiene. The absorption spectrum of the mixture of either methyl methacrylate or acrylonitrile with the electron-donating compound is, however, a superpostion of the spectra of the components without any additional absorption. Methyl isobutylate, 3-butenyl methyl ketone, and propionitrile show no charge-transfer absorption bands with the electron-donating compound, even in the presence of a metal halide. Both the presence of the C-C double bond conjugating with the polar group and the coordination of the polar group to a metal halide are essential for an electron-accepting monomer to exhibit a charge-transfer absorption with the electron-donating compound. Continuous variation plots with the use of the charge-transfer band definitely show a 1:1 interaction between the methyl methacrylate coordinated to stannic chloride and styrene, resulting in the determination of the equilibrium constants for the charge-transfer complex formation in methylene chloride: 0.21 l./mole at 25°C and 0.67 l./mole at -50°C. The charge-transfer absorption is attributed to a ternary molecular complex composed of a metal halide, a polar vinyl monomer, and an electron-donating monomer.

    Notes: Wool copolymers with low polymer content (6-18%) have been prepared by radiation grafting techniques. Supercontraction, density, and formic acid vapor sorption measurements have been used to assess changes in the keratin structure produced by the grafting processes. Kinetic studies of the contractile forces developed in the first (reversible) stage of the supercontraction of wool in lithium bromide showed that grafting with poly(N-methylol acrylamide) or polyacrylonitrile has a “repairing” action which offsets changes in the wool structure produced by the small radiation dose (2 Mrad) used for the grafting process. By contrast, grafting with poly(vinyl acetate) had no repairing effect. The bonds formed by grafting of poly(N-methylol acrylamide) or polyacrylonitrile to keratin do not reduce swelling of the wool by formic acid, which is a measure of effective crosslink density. Grafting with poly(vinyl acetate) led to increased swelling by formic acid, indicating some disruption of the keratin structure during polymerization. It is suggested that the role of the grafted polymer is mainly to stabilize the hydrogen-bonded secondary network by interaction between the polypeptide and polymer chains.

    Notes: In order to elucidate the mechanism of radiation-induced polymerization of methyl methacrylate adsorbed on silica gel, the effects of p-benzoquinone addition and dose rate were studied in detail. Most of the polymerization is inhibited by p-benzoquinone at levels above 10-2 mole/l. The GPC spectra of both graft polymers and homopolymers show two peaks. The high molecular weight material appears to have been formed by polymerization by a radical mechanism, because these peaks decrease as p-benzoquinone concentration increases; on the other hand, their low molecular weight polymers seem to be products of an ionic polymerization mechanism because those peaks are almost not affected by p-benzoquinone. The four GPC peaks differ in dose rate dependences of their polymerization rate. The dose-rate exponents of polymerization rate were obtained for the four GPC peaks. The behavior of the low molecular weight peaks of graft polymers and homopolymers were quite different, suggesting that the polymers differ considerably in formation mechanism.

The polymers produced contain oxetane units in the main chain, and spectroscopic analysis demonstrates that the distribution of structural units parallels that found in the reaction between benzophenone and tetramethylallene. The polymers are rapidly degraded thermally and by mineral acids.

An alternative route via furan-diketone 2:1 adducts was more successful but was complicated by the intervention of hydrogen abstraction reactions in competition with oxetane formation, leading to crosslinking and insolubilization in some cases.

    Notes: The degradation of films containing both PS and PVC has been examined by TVA and TG. Stabilization of both polymers, more notably PS, is observed, but the degradation products are the same as when the polymers are degraded alone. Molecular weight measurements indicate a more rapid decrease in the molecular weight of PS when PVC is present. The possibility of grafting or other processes leading to chlorine incorporation in PS has been excluded by the results of experiments using 36Cl-labeled PVC. The mechanisms of possible interactions between the degrading polymers are discussed. Processes involving reaction of chlorine radicals with PS at lower temperatures and reaction of PS radicals with the residue of PVC dehydrochlorination or its decomposition products at higher temperatures appear probable.

    Notes: In an alkyllithium-initiated polymerization of butadiene or styrene, dialkylzinc complexed with the initiator and effectively increased the initiation rate. This is particularly true with initiator of low solubility due to its very high state of aggregation. Dialkylzinc also complexes with the aggregated polymer-lithium molecules to give a lower apparent solution viscosity. In the presence of a base such as tetrahydrofuran, diethylzinc served as chain-transfer agent.

    Notes: The polymerization of methyl methacrylate was carried out in water at various concentrations of sodium bisulfite, ferric oxide, and methyl methacrylate at 30, 40, and 50°C. The effect of ferric oxide on the rate of polymerization was studied at 50°C. Rates of polymerization increased in the presence of ferric oxide. For example, the rate of polymerization increased from 3.4 × 10-5 mole/l.-sec to 11.8 × 10-5 mole/l.-sec when the ferric oxide concentration was varied from 0 to 15 g/l. water. The molecular weight of the polymer decreased from an average of 1.4 × 106 in the absence of ferric oxide to 2.8 × 105 when the ferric oxide was present. The variation of molecular weight of the polymers with temperature and conversion was studied. At a fixed conversion of 80%, the average molecular weight decreased from 3.4 × 105 at 30°C to 2.2 × 105 at 50°C. The average molecular weight was also found to increase with increasing monomer and initiator concentrations. It increased from 8.1 × 104 to 5.3 × 105 and from 3.4 × 105 to 8.9 × 105 as the initiator and monomer concentrations increased from 0.01 to 0.05 mole/l. and from 0.235 to 0.705 mole/l., respectively. The apparent energy of activation for the polymerization was found to be 15.6 and 9.7 kcal/mole in absence and in presence of ferric oxide, respectively.

    Notes: The quantitative effect of diffusion control on the rate of radiation-initiated graft polymerization has been studied theoretically for systems in which the diffusion-free reaction may show various dependencies of rate on monomer concentration other than the usual first-order dependence. The study is also very general in that it can be applied to systems involving a variety of different modes of initiation and termination. Whether the grafting process is diffusion-free or diffusion-controlled has been analyzed in terms of the interaction of the initiation rate Ri, the propagation and termination rate constants kp and kt, the equilibrium solubility M of the monomer in the polymer, the polymer film thickness L, the diffusivity D of the monomer in the polymer, and the diffusion-free kinetic order of dependence v of the grafting rate on monomer concentration. The dependence of the grafting rate for both the diffusion-free and diffusion-controlled reactions on these parameters is expressed both by mathematical experssions and graphically. Diffusion control is shown to occur at a critical value of the parameter A which is proportional to L(kpRiw/ktzD)1/2M(ε-1)/2 where w, z, and v have different values depending on the specific modes of initiation, propagation and termination in a particular grafting system. The grafting rate is shown to vary with the value of A according to specific mathematical expressions. In comparing diffusion-free to diffusion-controlled reaction, it is shown that the former is independent of L and D while the latter is directly dependent on L and inversely on D1/2. Further, the change from diffusion-free to diffusion-controlled reaction involves a change in the dependence of rate on monomer from v-order to [(v - 1)/2]-order. The nonsteady-state as well as the steady-state reaction rates have been analyzed.

    Notes: The polymerization of butadiene and copolymerization of butadiene-styrene with alkylsodium catalyst modified by crown ethers in hydrocarbon solvent has been investigated. This catalyst system produced polybutadiene of high viscosity (2.0-5.0) and high vinyl content (80%) in high conversion (75-95%). These results are in contrast to those obtained with aliphatic ether-modified alkylsodium polymerization which typically gives products of low molecular weight and at low conversion. The copolymerization of butadiene-styrene with alkylsodium catalyst modified by crown ethers gave a copolymer which did not contain block styrene. Although the copolymer did not contain block styrene, there was an unusually high level of incorporation of styrene in the copolymer at low conversion. This behavior is quite different from either modified organolithium or unmodified organosodium initiators, in which the styrene is uniformly and randomly incorporated along the chain.

    Notes: The degradation of films containing both PVA and PS has been investigated for comparison with the behavior already reported for PVC/PS blends. The presence of PS had little, if any, effect on the behavior of PVA, but PVA had an effect similar to that of PVC on the degradation of PS. Styrene production was retarded in the blend, compared to PS alone, and an increase in the rate of chain scission was observed for a high molecular weight sample. The molecular weight effect, however, was much smaller than in corresponding experiments with PVC/PS blends. Interference with intermolecular transfer in PS is again advanced as the probable explanation of the stabilization of PS.

    Notes: Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVdF) was irradiated by 60Co γ-rays with and without potassium hydroxide (KOH) under vacum. KOH tablets were added to absorb completely hydrogen fluoride (HF) which is the main volatile product of radiolysis of PVdF in the irradiation cell. In the presence of HF, the rates of radiation-induced crosslinking and dehydrofluorination of PVdF were lower than those in the absence of HF. The experimental results are discussed from the standpoint of stabilization of alkyl free radicals in PVdF by reaction with hydrogen fluoride.

    Notes: Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra were observed at -160°C and at room temperature for γ-irradiated poly-α-methylstyrene. The spectrum observed at room temperature has been attributed to the radical species while that at -160°C results from the same radical and superposition of the spectrum due to the radical ĊH2-C(CH3)(C6H5)-. The radicals which are stable at room temperature could be used to graft vinyl acetate.

    Notes: The oxidative polymerization catalyzed by Cu(II)-poly(vinylpyridine) derivatives and the effect of the nonpolar field formed by the polymer ligand on the catalysis was studied in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent. The catalytic activity of the Cu complex increases in the following order; Cu-(styrene-vinylpyridine copolymer) (St·VP) complex 〉 Cu-partially quarternized (by benzyl chloride) poly(vinylpyridine)(BCQP) complex 〉 Cu-poly(vinylpyridine) (PVP) complex 〉 Cu-pyridine (Py) complex 〉 Cu-partially quarternized (by ethyl bromide) poly(vinylpyridine) (EBQP) complex. This order is the same as that of the reoxidation rate constant of the catalyst. Acceleration of ko process in Cu-St〉VP and Cu-BCQP systems, where the active site is in the nonpolar field formed by the polymer ligand, is explained by an increase in strength of the coordination bonds.

    Notes: The homopolymerization and copolymerization of butadiene-1-carboxylic acid (Bu-1-Acid) (M1) were studied in tetrahydrofuran at 50°C with azobisisobutyronitrile as an initiator. The initial rate of polymerization was proportional to [AIBN]1/2 and [Bu-1-Acid]1. The overall activation energy for the polymerization was 22.87 kcal/mole. For copolymerization with styrene (M2) and acrylonitrile (M2), the monomer reactivity ratios r1, r2 were determined by the Fineman-Ross method, as follows; r1 = 5.55, r2 = 0.08 (M2 = styrene); r1 = 11.0, r2 = 0.03 (M2 = acrylonitrile). Alfrey-Price Q-e values calculated from these values were 6.0 and +0.11, respectively. The Bu-1-Acid unit in the copolymer as well as the homopolymer was found from infrared and NMR spectral analyses to be composed of a trans-1,4 bond. The hydrogen-transfer polymerization of Bu-1-Acid leading to polyester was attempted with triphenylphosphine as initiator, but did not occur.

    Notes: A reduction of frictional drag in turbulent flow was obtained in benzene by using three monodisperse polystyrene samples having weight-average molecular weights of 1.8, 4.1 and 7.1 × 106. By testing these polymers individually and in mixtures, data were obtained for samples with known molecular weight distributions. The drag reduction of these samples was studied as a function of polymer concentration and flow rate so that a generalized picture of the effects of polydispersity could be obtained. These results are used to help explain much of the behavior that was observed for polystyrene and other polymers. This includes the fact that the polystyrene samples exhibit a remarkably high resistance to the loss of drag reduction via degradation in turbulent flow. Such experiments indicate that drag reduction and degradation depend strongly on molecular weight distribution. Thus a molecular level interpretation of experimental results cannot be made unless the effects of the distribution are considered.

    Notes: In order to develop a method of measuring the amounts of short branches in PVA, an NMR study was made of a model poly(vinyl alcohol) having short branches, one or two monomer units in length. Detection and estimation of the short branches were shown to be possible by using the 13C-NMR spectra of PVA and the 1H-NMR of acetylated PVA. In the 19F-NMR spectra of trifluoroacetylated model PVA, the resonance peaks of primary and tertiary alcohols in the branching structure were not well resolved from that of secondary alcohol of the main chain.

    Notes: Polycondensation of diethyl 2,3,4,5-tetrahydroxyadipate with various diamines was carried out in solutions under mild conditions. The polycondensation reaction occurred rapidly even at room temperature in polar solvents such as alcohols, and in aqueous solution a cyclic product was obtained instead of linear polymers although the reaction with diamines was completed within several minutes. Polymers obtained from diethyl 2,3,4,5-tetrahydroxyadipate were a linear polyamide having pendant hydroxyl groups, which decomposed on heating at around 200°C. A solid-phase polycondensation of the precursor polyamide yielded a high molecular weight polyamide.

    Notes: Paramagnetic species produced in a series of linear aliphatic oligoesters $ [\bond;{\rm O}\bond;({\rm CH}_{\rm 2} {\rm )}_m\bond;{\rm O}\bond;{\rm CO}\bond;({\rm CH}_{\rm 2} {\rm )}_n\bond;{\rm CO\rlap{--} ]}_P $ by γ-irradiation at 77°K was investigated by an ESR method. A predominant doublet observed immediately after γ-irradiation, which has hyperfine splitting of 20-23 gauss, is attributed to a radical anion III. Slight decay of this radical anion is observed by illuminating the sample with visible light at 77°K. A small amount of the radical anion is converted to double triplet, which is assigned to —(ES)—CH—CH2— (where ES denotes the ester group), from the result of heat treatment. The conformational angles for the two β-protons in the (6,2) oligoester are determined to be θ1 = θ2 = 30°.

    Notes: Graft copolymerization of styrene on rubber containing chlorine, e.g., chloroprene rubber (CR) and chlorosulfonated polyethylene (Hypalon), with chromous acetate (Cr2+) was carried out in DMF-THF mixed solvent at 50°C. From the kinetic study, the normal kinetic orders with respect to the concentration of initiator and monomer were obtained at low concentrations of CR, but the deviation from conventional first-order to second-order kinetics with respect to the monomer concentration was observed at high CR concentrations: Rp ∝ [CR]1/2 [Cr2+]1/2[styrene]1 (at low CR concentration); Rp ∝ [CR]1/2 [Cr2+]1/2[styrene]1 (at high CR concentration). This result was explained in terms of the high viscosity of the reaction medium due to the rubber contained in solution. An initiation site along the polymer chain was assumed from the graft copolymerization with three kinds of CR having different microstructures. The results of fractionation of obtained polymer showed that the graft efficiency was high but a large amount of gel was formed.

    Notes: Homopolymers and copolymers containing the polybenzimidazoles ring were prepared from terephthalic acid (T), fumaric acid (F), and 3,3′-diaminobenzidine tetrachloride (DAB) in polyphosphoric acid. The polymers were characterized by viscometry, infrared spectroscopy, and nitrogen analyses. The effect of copolymer composition on the ultraviolet and visible spectra, solubility in various solvents, and density was also investigated. The relative thermal stability of the various polybenzimidazoles was investigated by using dynamic thermogravimetry in air. Polybenzimidazole derived from terephthalic acid was most stable, and the introduction of aliphatic residues resulted in a decrease in thermal stability. However, the homopolymer of fumaric acid was more stable than the copolymers of fumaric acid and terephthalic acid.

    Notes: Polymerization of MMA was carried out under visible light (440 nm) with the use of pyridine-bromine (Py-Br2) charge-transfer (CT) complex as the photoinitiator. Initiator exponent and intensity exponent were 0.5 and 0.43, respectively, and the monomer exponent was found to be dependent on the nature of the solvent or diluent used. The Polymerization was inhibited in the presence of hydroquinone, but oxygen had very little inhibitory effect. An average value of kp2/kt for this polymerization system was 1.19 × 10-2, and the activation energy of photopolymerization was 4.95 kcal/mole. Kinetic data and other evidence indicate that the overall polymerization takes place by a radical mechanism. With Py-Br2 complex as the photoinitiator, the order of polymerizability at 40°C was found to be MMA, EMA ≫ Sty, MA.

The initiator exponent and intensity exponent were 0.5, and the monomer exponent was found to be unity. The polymerization was inhibited in the presence of hydroquinone. The average kp2/kt for this photopolymerization system was found to be 0.296 × 10-2 and the activation energy of photopolymerization was 4.67 kcal/mole. Kinetic and other evidence indicate that the overall polymerization takes place by a radical mechanism. With NBS as the photoinitiator, the order of polymerizability at 40°C was MMA, EMA ≫ MA ≃ VA, and styrene could not be polymerized under similar conditions.

    Notes: The interaction between a number of organic fluors and vinyltoluene during thermally induced polymerization has been investigated by using kinetic and fluorescence techniques. It has been confirmed that 2,5-diphenyloxazole, bis-2(5-phenyloxazoyl)benzene and p-terphenyl do not react in the polymerizing medium and are present in the final product as solute in a solid solution. However, 1,1′4,4′-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene and 9-methylanthrancene do react, via chain-transfer steps. The diene is concentrated in the low molecular weight tail of a polymer of broad molecular weight distribution and can be removed by further fractionation. The anthrancene species undergoes structural rearrangement with accompanying loss of fluorescence activity during reaction with the growing polymer chains.

    Notes: Polymerization of propylene sulfide by use of triethylaluminum derivatives as initiators leads to low molecular weight polymers with irregularities in the chain, e.g. head-to-head units and disulfide bonds. Abnormal chiroptical properties due to the presence of these linkages were observed on polymerizing a levorotatory enantiomer. The formation of irregularities may be explained by the simultaneous presence of anionic and cationic mechanism and gives polymers without irregularities.

    Notes: To elucidate the reaction mechanism of radiation-induced polymerization of methyl methacrylate adsorbed on silica gel, the temperature dependence and effects of acetone and pyridine were investigated. It was found that even at -78°C the polymerization rate was quite fast. The amounts of high molecular weight GPC peaks of both graft polymers and homopolymers increased with increasing irradiation temperature. The activation energy of the adsorbed state polymerization was low compared with that of bulk polymerization. The low molecular weight peaks of homopolymers decreased with acetone addition but were almost unaffected by pyridine. The low molecular weight peaks of homopolymers were thus polymerized by an anionic mechanism. In the methyl methacrylate-silica gel system both radical and anionic polymerization take place at the same time in formation of graft polymers and homopolymers. A reaction mechanism for the methyl methacrylate-silica gel system was proposed based on the results obtained to date.

The first-order dependence of rate of polymerization on catalyst and monomer concentrations, activation energy of 6.67 kcal/mole, and NMR spectra of polymer lend support to a coordinate anionic mechanism of polymerization. It has been shown that the vanadium in V+2 oxidation state is less active than V+3 oxidation state of active complex.

    Notes: Base-catalyzed hydrogen-transfer polymerization and copolymerization of acrylamide and its methyl-substituted derivatives were studied in pyridine at 110°C. n-Butyllithium was used as an initiator. The observed rates of these homopolymerizations were found to decrease in the following order: acrylamide 〉 crotonamide 〉 methacrylamide 〉 N-methylacrylamide 〉 N-methylcrotonamide 〉 tiglinamide 〉 N-methylmethacrylamide ≫ α-chlorocrotonamide ≃ α-cyanocrotonamide = 0. Acrylamide gave the polymer with the highest degree of polymerization among the monomers examined. It was found that the number and the position of the methyl substituent in acrylamide affected significantly both the rate of polymerization and the molecular weight of the polymer. Although all polymers obtained, except the N-methyl derivatives, contained both methanol-soluble and methanol-insoluble fractions, a polyamide structure with unsaturated terminal monomer unit was confirmed by both infrared and NMR determinations. From the NMR determination of the saturated and terminal unsaturated units, the degree of polymerization of the resulting polyamides were also obtained. The monomers were also found to copolymerize by a hydrogen-transfer mechanism. However, the main chain of the resulting copolymers was composed of the more reactive monomer unit, and the less reactive monomer was incorporated only as a terminal unit when a less reactive monomer was copolymerized with a more reactive one. From these results, it was concluded that these polymerizations proceeded via an intermolecular hydrogen-transfer mechanism (i.e., stepwise mechanism).

    Notes: A series of phosphonitrilic fluoroelastomers which have excellent solvent resistance and low temperature flexibility, and which perform well under a broad range of service conditions, have been developed. The solution properties of one of these polymers were studied more extensively in order to develop suitable quality control procedures and to gain a better understanding of the polymer structure. Solvents for these procedures were established, fractionation procedures were developed, and intrinsic viscosity, osmotic pressure, and light-scattering measurements were conducted. We found this polymer to have a very broad molecular weight distribution. And, although fractionation by molecular weight was effected, the fractions retained a broad molecular weight distribution. Our data do not indicate significant branching for this polymer. As a result of our studies, we have theorized that a supermolecular structure may be present in this polymer.

    Notes: The amide-exchange reactions which cause copolymer formation in polyamide melt blends were studied with mixtures of N-ethylcaproamide and N-hexylacetamide containing small concentrations of caproic acid and hexylamine as a model system for melt blends of aliphatic polyamides. Amide exchange was found to involve acidolysis and aminolysis reactions with no detectable contribution of direct reaction between amide groups. Kinetics data are consistent with formation of an anhydride intermediate in amide acidolysis. Rate constants over the range 200-275°C and activation energies for amide acidolysis and aminolysis reactions are given. Equations are given for calculating amide exchange rates in polyamide melt blends and for relating degree of amide exchange to block copolymer composition.

    Notes: On substitution of hydrogen by deuterium the radiation yield of free radicals in polyolefins decreases ca. 2-fold. Under ultraviolet illumination (γ 〈 300 nm) in deuterated polyethylene (DPE), allyl radicals are converted into alkyl radicals (hfs constants aDα = 3.2 Oe, aDβ = 4.4 Oe); in deuterated polypropylene (DPP), allyl and peroxide radicals are converted into alkyl radicals (aDβ = 3.7 Oe). At 77°K under ultraviolet light in γ-irradiated polyethylene (PE) and DPE, triene, tetraene, dienyl, trienyl, and tetraenyl radicals are formed. Deuterium substitution has no effect on absorption spectra of polyenyl radicals and polyenes. In polyolefins the quantum yields of photochemical reactions of allyl and peroxide radicals are 0.1-1.0. Photochemical reactions of peroxide radicals result in a radical concentration increase of ca. 3-fold. In reactions of peroxide radicals in the dark, a kinetic isotope effect has been observed. Activation energies of substitution reactions of peroxide radicals are in PE, 9.3 ± 0.3 kcal/mole; in DPE, 10.2 ± 0.3 kcal/mole; in PP, 12.7 ± 0.4 kcal/mole; in DPP, 14 ± 0.5 kcal/mole. Possible mechanisms of the effect of polyolefin isotope composition on radical formation by high energy irradiation as well as on photochemical and dark reactions of free radicals are discussed. The effect of the energy released from phototransformations and radiationless deactivation of macroradicals on the migration of free valence is also considered.

    Notes: The photolysis of virgin PVC powder suspended in water, methanol, n-hexane, aqueous NH4OH (30 wt-%), and 0.1 wt-% iodine in methanol and also as dry powder was studied. The mechanism of photolysis of PVC powder has been investigated by using ESR spectroscopy, conductivity titration, gel-permeation chromatography (GPC), and absorption spectroscopy. Photolysis of PVC has been found to occur by a free-radical mechanism. ESR spectroscopy permits a partial identification of several different types of free radicals in PVC such as alkyl, polyenyl, and peroxy radicals. An interpretation is proposed of the mechanism of formation of conjugated polyene structures, and also a new explanation of the crosslinking mechanism, in which transfer of unpaired electrons to double bonds occurs, is suggested. It has also been found that conjugated double bonds can photosensitize free-radical formation as a result of increased ultraviolet absorption due to polyene structures.

    Notes: The singlet oxygen oxidation of cis- and trans- 1,4-polybutadienes was studied by using singlet oxygen generated in a microwave generator and in dye-photosensitized reactions of these polymers in the solid state and in solution. It was shown that the reactions of singlet oxygen result in formation of hydroperoxide groups, whereas ultraviolet oxidation by molecular oxygen in addition leads to formation of carbonyl groups. During dye-photosensitized oxidation of polydienes in benzene solution, a very rapid decrease in the molecular weight was observed.

    Notes: Radiation-induced copolymer grafting of acenaphthylene and maleic anhydride onto polyethylene or EVA film in the vapor phase was carried out and the effect of comonomer sorption on the grafting was studied. When polyethylene film was used as a backbone polymer, the sorption of the binary monomers during the grafting increased linearly as the grafting reaction proceeded. The marked increase was probably caused by the formation of a grafted layer. Particularly, the sorption of maleic anhydride was brought about by the existence of a grafted layer. In grafting onto EVA film, the content of maleic anhddride in the grafted copolymer increased with the increasing content of vinyl acetate in EVA. Continuous measurements of sorption of the comonomers onto EVA and grafted EVA films were carried out by use of an electrobalance. The distinctive feature of the sorption was that the equilibrium sorption of acenaphthylene or maleic anhydride onto the grafted EVA film increased and the diffusion constants for both comonomers decreased markedly with increasing percentage of graft. The copolymer grafting was explained from these results by assuming that the monomer molecules are supplied to the propagating chain ends mostly through a sorbed state on the polymer film.

    Notes: The radical polymerization and copolymerization of butadiene 1-carboxylic acid (Bu-1-Acid) were studied in a variety of the electron-donor solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF), tetrahydrofuran (THF), methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), acetonitrile (ACN), and benzene (BZ) using AIBN as an initiator at 50°C. Under these conditions, the polymerization rate of Bu-1-Acid increased in the order, DMF 〈 THF 〈 MEK 〈 ACN 〈 BZ in the various solvents. In copolymerization with styrene [M2] and acrylonitrile [M2], the monomer reactivity ratio r1 increased and r2 decreased in the same order. Moreover, it was found that Alfrey-Price Q-e value of Bu-1-Acid increased depending on solvent in the order DMF 〈 THF 〈 MEK 〈 ACN 〈 BZ. These variations were correlated to the electron-donating power (Δvcm-) of the solvents used and are discussed on the basis of the solvation of Bu-1-Acid into the solvent. Also, it was found that the microstructures of these polymers were always trans-1,4 and did not change with the solvent used.

    Notes: Radical polymerization of butadiene 1-carboxylic acid (Bu-1-Acid) was carried out in aqueous solutions at 50°C with ammonium persulfate (APS) as an initiator. Kinetic studies led to the rate equation, Rp = k[APS]1/2 [Bu-1-Acid]1 at pH 6.8. The overall activation energy for the polymerization was 16.0 kcal/mole. The polymerization rate Rp of Bu-1-Acid decreased with an increase of pH in the range 2.4-6.8 and increased with an increase of pH in the range 6.8-8.4. Moreover, in the pH range 8.4-13, the rate of polymerization was not affected by the pH of the system. In copolymerization with acrylonitrile, the trends of changes in the monomer reactivity ratios r1, r2 and Q-e values caused by changes in pH were similar to trends found in homopolymerization described above. In addition, it was observed that the resultant polymer was extended in alkaline solution and contracted in acidic solution.

    Notes: DTA (differential thermal analysis) traces for various kinds of polystyrene and substituted polystyrenes, including bulk-polymerized, monodisperse, and isotactic samples, have been recorded below the glass temperature. It has been shown that the β transition is dependent upon polymer structural modification, traces of water or solvent, and sample thermal history. The experimental data presented here support the conclusion that the β transition is due to conformational changes involving backbone motions and phenyl ring reorientation.

    Notes: Photolysis behavior of oxidized poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in which carbonyl groups were introduced by oxidation with sodium hypochlorite and periodic acid was investigated by using ESR spectrometry. Increased formation of PVA radicals was observed in the sample with low degree of oxidation, which showed an emphasized formation of triplet component radical. On the other hand, the formation of radicals tended to be depressed in the highly oxidized sample, and a singlet component was dominant in the ESR spectrum. By examining infrared and ultraviolet spectra of the oxidized sample, the sample was found to contain two structures, a saturated ketone group and an α,β-unsaturated group; the latter structure was intensified with increasing degree of oxidation. Based on ESR studies of the photoirradiated acetone and mesityl oxide, the models of saturated and α,β-unsaturated ketone structures in the oxidized PVA, respectively a photodecomposition mechanism of oxidized PVA was proposed.

    Notes: An anionic polymerization procedure for preparing multiblock copolymers of styrene and isoprene is described. The process is based on the initial specific incorporation of isoprene when mixtures of styrene and isoprene are polymerized with butyllithium in hydrocarbon solution. As examples, linear (AB)3 block copolymers have been prepared by interrupting styrene polymerization by step additions of isoprene at times programmed according to the reactivity ratios and the rate constants for styrene and isoprene propagations. The products were characterized by means of osmometry, light scattering, gel-permeation chromatography, and density-gradient ultracentrifugation. The analyses showed that the multiblock copolymers are free from polymeric impurities and reasonably homogeneous in molecular weight and composition. The polystyrene segment lengths were analyzed by means of GPC after the oxidative degradation of the polyisoprene moieties in the copolymers. The results suggest that the polyisoprene blocks contain a nonnegligible amount of styrene but that this monomer is incorporated as very short segments. On the other hand the polystyrene blocks produced at the end of the copolymerizations appear to have narrow molecular weight distributions.
