Composition molecular weight

Hydrocarbon resins are used extensively as modifiers in adhesives, sealants, printing inks, paints and varnishes, plastics, road marking, flooring, and oil field appHcations. In most cases, they ate compounded with elastomers, plastics, waxes, or oils. Selection of a resin for a particular appHcation is dependent on composition, molecular weight, color, and oxidative and thermal stabiHty, as weU as cost. A listing of all hydrocarbon resin suppHers and the types of resins that they produce is impractical. A representative listing of commercially available hydrocarbon resins and their suppHers is included in Table 6. 

Over a period of about 50 years, the science of polymer chemistry has developed a comprehensive means of polymer characterization techniques. In the case of PE, these parameters include the composition, molecular weight, and compositional distribution. The composition of ethylene copolymers is usually measured by C-nmr, H-nmr, or in techniques. 

Membrane stmcture is a function of the materials used (polymer composition, molecular weight distribution, solvent system, etc) and the mode of preparation (solution viscosity, evaporation time, humidity, etc). Commonly used polymers include cellulose acetates, polyamides, polysulfones, dynels (vinyl chloride-acrylonitrile copolymers) and poly(vinyhdene fluoride).

More recently, the same author [41] has described polymer analysis (polymer microstructure, copolymer composition, molecular weight distribution, functional groups, fractionation) together with polymer/additive analysis (separation of polymer and additives, identification of additives, volatiles and catalyst residues) the monograph provides a single source of information on polymer/additive analysis techniques up to 1980. Crompton described practical analytical methods for the determination of classes of additives (by functionality antioxidants, stabilisers, antiozonants, plasticisers, pigments, flame retardants, accelerators, etc.).

Research on the modelling, optimization and control of emulsion polymerization (latex) reactors and processes has been expanding rapidly as the chemistry and physics of these systems become better understood, and as the demand for new and improved latex products increases. The objectives are usually to optimize production rates and/or to control product quality variables such as polymer particle size distribution (PSD), particle morphology, copolymer composition, molecular weights (MW s), long chain branching (LCB), crosslinking frequency and gel content.

Copolymers. Mixtures of two or more different bifunctional monomers can undergo additional polymerization to form copolymers. Why copolymerize Well, polymers have different properties that depend on their composition, molecular weight, branching, crystallinity, etc. Many copolymers have been developed to combine the best features of each monomer. For example, polystyrene is low cost and clear, but it is also brittle with no toughness. It needs internal plasticization. By copolymerizing styrene with a small amount of acrylonitrile or butadiene, the impact and toughness properties are dramatically improved.

Several kinds of chain extenders that permit rapid production of poly (ethylene terephthalate) of high molecular weight and low carboxyl content have been found. The composition, molecular-weight distribution, and chemical properties of poly (ethylene terephthalate) obtained by this chain-extender method are quite similar to those of the polymer obtained by the conventional method, except for a lower carboxyl content.
