Other poly acrylates

Although they lack commercial importance, many other poly(vinyl acetal)s have been synthesized. These include acetals made from vinyl acetate copolymerized with ethylene (43—46), propjiene (47), isobutjiene (47), acrylonitrile (48), acrolein (49), acrylates (50,47), aHyl ether (51), divinyl ether (52), maleates (53,54), vinyl chloride (55), diaHyl phthalate (56), and starch (graft copolymer) (47). [Pg.450]

The earliest study describing vulcanised polymers of esters of acryUc acid was carried out in Germany by Rohm (2) before World War I. The first commercial acryUc elastomers were produced in the United States in the 1940s (3—5). They were homopolymers and copolymers of ethyl acrylate and other alkyl acrylates, with a preference for poly(ethyl acrylate) [9003-32-17, due to its superior balance of properties. The main drawback of these products was the vulcanisation. The fully saturated chemical stmcture of the polymeric backbone in fact is inactive toward the classical accelerators and curing systems. As a consequence they requited the use of aggressive and not versatile compounds such as strong bases, eg, sodium metasiUcate pentahydrate. To overcome this limitation, monomers containing a reactive moiety were incorporated in the polymer backbone by copolymerisation with the usual alkyl acrylates. [Pg.474]

Immobilization of A and B blood group oligosaccharide haptens and preparation of immunoadsorbents with specificity to anti-A and anti-B antibodies has been carried out with the use of poly acrylate-coated PG (WPG-PA) [124]. Prespacered A and B-trisaccharide-fl-aminopropylglycosides were used for the synthesis. WPG-PA (1 g) quantitatively binds both haptens (2 pinole) whereas some other activated affinity supports (for example, CNBr-Sepharose 4B) do not. On the other hand, glycidoxypropyl-silica binds prespacered haptens completely but these materials reveal no specific adsorptivity. [Pg.171]

The main polymers used as thickeners are modified celluloses and poly(acrylic acid). Several different modified celluloses are available, including methyl-, hydroxypropyl methyl-, and sodium carboxymethyl-cellulose and their properties vary according to the number and distribution of the substituents and according to relative molar mass of the parent cellulose. Hence a range of materials is available, some of which dissolve more readily than others, and which provide a wide spread of possible solution viscosities. Poly(acrylic acid) is also used as a thickener, and is also available in a range of relative molar masses which give rise to give solutions of different viscosities. [Pg.77]

Other uses of thickening agents include pharmaceutical preparations, paper production, and oil well drilling fluids. This latter use is necessary because oil is obtained from rock that is porous. In order to remove the oil without altering the mechanical properties of the porous rock, viscous liquids ( drilling fluids ) are pumped into the rock to replace the oil. Among the substances that can be used for this purpose are thickened aqueous solutions of polymers such as poly(acrylic acid) or poly(acrylonitrile). [Pg.78]

The most common poly(alkenoic acid) used in polyalkenoate, ionomer or polycarboxylate cements is poly(acrylic acid), PAA. In addition, copolymers of acrylic acid with other alkenoic acids - maleic and itaconic and 3-butene 1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid - may be employed (Crisp Wilson, 1974c, 1977 Crisp et al, 1980). These polyacids are prepared by free-radical polymerization in aqueous solution using ammonium persulphate as the initiator and propan-2-ol (isopropyl alcohol) as the chain transfer agent (Smith, 1969). The concentration of poly(alkenoic add) is kept below 25 % to avoid the danger of explosion. After polymerization the solution is concentrated to 40-50 % for use. [Pg.97]

Most orthosilicates reacted completely with poly(acrylic acid) solution an exception was andradite, CagFOg [SiOJg. Even so, the cements of gehlenite and hardystonite were very weak and affected by water. Only gadolinite and willemite formed cements of some strength which were unaffected by water, probably because one contained beryllium and iron and the other zinc. [Pg.116]

The poly(alkenoic acid)s used in glass polyalkenoate cement are generally similar to those used in zinc polycarboxylate cements. They are homopolymers of acrylic acid and its copolymers with itaconic add, maleic add and other monomers e.g. 3-butene 1,2,3-tricarboxylic add. They have already been described in Section 5.3. The poly(acrylic add) is not always contained in the liquid. Sometimes the dry add is blended with glass powder and the cement is activated by mixing with water or an aqueous solution of tartaric add (McLean, Wilson Prosser, 1984 Prosser et al., 1984). [Pg.132]

Many polymers have been studied for their usefulness in producing pharmacologically active complexes with proteins or drugs. Synthetic and natural polymers such as polysaccharides, poly(L-lysine) and other poly(amino acids), poly(vinyl alcohols), polyvinylpyrrolidinones, poly(acrylic acid) derivatives, various polyurethanes, and polyphosphazenes have been coupled to with a diversity of substances to explore their properties (Duncan and Kopecek, 1984 Braatz et al., 1993). Copolymer preparations of two monomers also have been tried (Nathan et al., 1993). [Pg.936]

The failure in increasing residence time of mucoadhesive systems in the human intestinal tract has led scientists to the evaluation of multifunctional mucoadhesive polymers. Research in the area of mucoadhesive drug delivery systems has shed light on other properties of some of the mucoadhesive polymers. One important class of mucoadhesive polymers, poly(acrylic acid) derivatives, has been identified as potent inhibitors of proteolytic enzymes [72-74]. The interaction between various types of mucoadhesive polymers and epithelial cells has a direct influence on the permeability of mucosal epithelia by means of changing the gating properties of the tight jrmctions. More than being only adhesives, some mucoadhesive polymers can therefore be considered as a novel class of multifunctional macromolecules with a number of desirable properties for their use as delivery adjuvants [72,75]. [Pg.184]
