Olefins and styrene co carbon monoxide polymers

A number of copolymers of olefins and carbon monoxide were studied using analytical pyrolysis and reported in literature [4, 5]. In one study [4], the experiments were carried out at 550 °C with a THT of 10 s and with the separation of the pyrolysate on a methyl 5%-phenyl silicone (DB-5MS) column. The detection of peaks was done using a mass 

Polymers with saturated carbon chain backbone 

A first observation regarding the results shown in Table 6.8.1 is that there are only minor differences in the pyrolysis products of the 30/30 and the 50/10 copolymers. The products consist of several small molecules (H2O, CO, C2H4), ketones, ketoesters, and cyclic compounds. Their proportions are given in Table 6.8 2 [4].
