Metallopolymer thermolysis

The pyrolysis of transition metal carboxylates (in the example of Ni " ) has an essential place due to both (a) the quantitative characteristics of the main stages and (b) the properties of the products obtained. Such metallopolymers can be prepared by two principally different routes by the above-mentioned polymer-analogous reactions, namely, by the interaction of polyacryhc acid with metal salts Ni, (PAA-Ni ), Co " ", Fe " ", and so on (method A), or by radical polymerization of the appropriated monomers—for example, nickel acrylate, [Ni(CH2CHCOO)2] , to give nickel polyacrylate (NiPAcr) (method C). The kinetic peculiarities of metallopolymers thermolysis were compared with the behavior of their low-molecular-weight analogues nickel propionate. 

Thermolysis is widely used in the synthesis of nano-sized metallopolymer composites. This is a result of the specifics of the preparation of such materials. In spite of a variety of the methods for the preparation of metallopolymer nanocomposites, there are two principal routes bottom-up and top-down. ... 

Such polymer-immobilized tt-allylic complexes undergoing thermal decomposition can form nanoparticles in polymer [68], during which the thermolysis can be carried out even without a solvent (for example, by heating of the formed metallopolymer films using an infrared lamp). The nanoparticle sizes depend on many factors such as the characteristics of the used dispersant polymer, its molecular mass (the optimal value is M = 100,000), and the nature...
