Graft copolymers effects

Crucial to the high toughening efficiency of the maleated rubbers is the reaction between the bound anhydride functionality and the amine end groups of polyamide (Scheme 8.3) to form the critical graft copolymer at the interface. The graft copolymer effectively compatibilizes the rubber by reducing the interfacial tension according to the currently... [Pg.215]

Monomer compositional drifts may also occur due to preferential solution of the styrene in the mbber phase or solution of the acrylonitrile in the aqueous phase (72). In emulsion systems, mbber particle size may also influence graft stmcture so that the number of graft chains per unit of mbber particle surface area tends to remain constant (73). Factors affecting the distribution (eg, core-sheU vs "wart-like" morphologies) of the grafted copolymer on the mbber particle surface have been studied in emulsion systems (74). Effects due to preferential solvation of the initiator by the polybutadiene have been described (75,76). [Pg.203]

Park et al. [20] reported on the synthesis of poly-(chloroprene-co-isobutyl methacrylate) and its compati-bilizing effect in immiscible polychloroprene-poly(iso-butyl methacrylate) blends. A copolymer of chloroprene rubber (CR) and isobutyl methacrylate (iBMA) poly[CP-Co-(BMA)] and a graft copolymer of iBMA and poly-chloroprene [poly(CR-g-iBMA)] were prepared for comparison. Blends of CR and PiBMA are prepared by the solution casting technique using THF as the solvent. The morphology and glass-transition temperature behavior indicated that the blend is an immiscible one. It was found that both the copolymers can improve the miscibility, but the efficiency is higher in poly(CR-Co-iBMA) than in poly(CR-g-iBMA),... [Pg.638]

Compatibilization along with dynamic vulcanization techniques have been used in thermoplastic elastomer blends of poly(butylene terephthalate) and ethylene propylene diene rubber by Moffett and Dekkers [28]. In situ formation of graft copolymer can be obtained by the use of suitably functionalized rubbers. By the usage of conventional vulcanizing agents for EPDM, the dynamic vulcanization of the blend can be achieved. The optimum effect of compatibilization along with dynamic vulcanization can be obtained only when the compatibilization is done before the rubber phase is dispersed. [Pg.640]

Two types of well defined branched polymers are acessible anionically star-shaped polymers and comb-like polymers87 88). Such macromolecules are used to investigate the effect of branching on the properties, 4n solution as well as in the the bulk. Starshaped macromolecules contain a known number of identical chains which are linked at one end to a central nodule. The size of the latter should be small with respect to the overall molecular dimensions. Comb-like polymers comprise a linear backbone of given length fitted with a known number of randomly distributed branches of well defined size. They are similar to graft copolymers, except that backbone and branches are of identical chemical nature and do not exhibit repulsions. [Pg.160]

Kennedy and co-workers 2 117) used the changing effect of the initiation ability of the Lewis acids according to Eq. (17) and the termination tendency of the anion formed according to Eq. (18) in order to obtain telechelic polymers , block copolymers and graft copolymers in a controlled manner. Quantum chemical calculations provide the possibility to discuss structural influences which work on the equilibrium Eq. (19) and therefore on the stability of the two adjacent ions. [Pg.207]

Reactive compatibilization is also carried out by adding a monomer which in the presence of a catalyst can react with one or both phases providing a graft copolymer in situ that acts as a compatibilizer. Beaty and coworkers added methyl methacrylate and peroxide to waste plastics (containing polyethylene [PE], polypropylene [PP], PS, and poly(ethylene terephthalate) [PET]). The graft copolymer formed in situ homogenized the blend very effectively [19]. [Pg.301]
