Oligomer epoxy, preparation

Chain Extendable Urethane Modified Epoxy Oligomer. The chain extendable urethane modified oligomers were prepared by combining equimolar amounts of epoxy-diol adduct and half-blocked diisocyanates, and heating the resulting mixture at 80°C for 4-6 hours until the isocyanate Infrared band disappeared. 

After matching of hardener system, compositions, containing the mixture of above mentioned hardeners with epoxy oligomer, were prepared. Viscometric measurements showed, that despite the fact that the composition is a mobile liquid (rj = 493,6 Cst) it still has high viscosity. For viscosity reduction a styrol was matched as a diluent. 

Brominated Phenols. Tribromophenol [75-80-9] and dibromophenol [615-58-7] are both prepared through bromination of phenol. These are not actually used as reactive flame retardants, but rather as starting materials for other flame retardants such as BTBPE [37853-59-1] and epoxy oligomers. 

Void-free phenolic networks can be prepared by crosslinking novolacs with epoxies instead of HMTA. A variety of difunctional and multifunctional epoxy reagents can be used to generate networks with excellent dielectric properties.2 One example of epoxy reagents used in diis manner is the epoxidized novolac (Fig. 7.34) derived from the reaction of novolac oligomers with an excess of epichlorohydrin. 

Poly(unsaturated ester)-siloxane segmented copolymers have been prepared by the polycondensation of epoxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxanes and carboxy-terminated poly(ethylene adipate-co-maleate) oligomers 243). Reactions have been conducted in cellosolve solvent, at 140-150 °C, in the presence of 2% by weight potassium hydroxide catalyst. The molecular weights reported were fairly low. The same group has also prepared poly(hexamethylene adipate)-polydimethylsiloxane copolymers con-... 

Step-growth polymerization. Epoxy resins were prepared from nadlc methyl anhydride and Epon 828. This blfunctlonal oxirane also supplies reactive hydrogen sites. The major component is at 1=0, minor components include oligomers with 1=1,2,3. Their concentrations rapidly diminish as degree of polymerization Increases. 

Siloxane-modified networks were prepared for testing via two steps. A linear precursor was generated by reacting the epoxy resin with the siloxane oligomer for one hour under vacuum at 65 °C. PACM-20 was then added, and the mixture was stirred for five minutes under vacuum at 50 °C. Previous studies indicated 151 that reaction between the AEP-terminated siloxane oligomers and the curing agent is not possible, as one would expect. 

Flow sheets for preparing the components of various monomer and oligomer reactant mixtures do not differ significantly from each other, although they may have different sets of reactors. The choice depends mainly on the physical and chemical properties of the initial components. Fig. 4.2 shows a flow sheet for obtaining continuously molded polyurethane elastomers. Fig. 4.3 illustrates an elementary flow sheet for a batch process unit for manufacturing moldings of epoxy resin or epoxy-based composites filled with quartz sand. 

Transient siloxanolate anionic catalysts prepared by reacting four moles of D-4 with one of tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide at 80 C are effective for equilibrating "neutral" systems such as the epoxy ( ), "basic" dimethyl-amino (64) or aminopropyl (59,67) end-blockers and D-4. With "acidic" functionality on the end-blocker, we have successfully utilized trifluoroacetic acid for the equilibrations. Further details of the oligomer synthesis and their utilization in segmented copol)nners will be described in future publications. 

Recent additions to the search of lignin-based polymers include the use of lignin oligomers and vegetable oils to elaborate paper hydrophobic coatings [65] and the preparation of epoxy networks derived from lignosulfonate and glycerol [66]. 

Polyhydroxyurethane polymer usually has poor water resistance due to plurality of hydroxyl groups, but it is possible to prepare water-resistant materials in some formulations. For example, a cyclocarbonate acrylic was applied on a base of acrylic epoxy oligomer and a polymer was prepared with high water and weather stabilities... 

Almost all of the early initiators absorbed well below 200 nm. It was Schle-singer who prepared diazonium salts with an extended spectral range, and with them, was able to polymerize various mono- and bifunctional epoxy monomers, furans, dioxycyclopentadiene, and oxycyclohexene, as well as oligomers and epoxidized novolacs. Dose sensitivities on the order of 15-30 mJ/cm have...
