Phenolics calcium carbonate

Detergents are metal salts of organic acids used primarily in crankcase lubricants. Alkylbenzenesulfonic acids, alkylphenols, sulfur- and methjiene-coupled alkyl phenols, carboxyUc acids, and alkylphosphonic acids are commonly used as their calcium, sodium, and magnesium salts. Calcium sulfonates, overbased with excess calcium hydroxide or calcium carbonate to neutralize acidic combustion and oxidation products, constitute 65% of the total detergent market. These are followed by calcium phenates at 31% (22). 

Decomposition with Bases. Alkaline decomposition of poUucite can be carried out by roasting poUucite with either a calcium carbonate—calcium chloride mix at 800—900°C or a sodium carbonate—sodium chloride mix at 600—800°C foUowed by a water leach of the roasted mass, to give an impure cesium chloride solution that is separated from the gangue by filtration (22). The solution can then be converted to cesium alum [7784-17-OJ, CS2SO4 Al2(S0 2 24H20. Extraction of cesium from the poUucite is almost complete. Solvent extraction of cesium carbonate from the cesium chloride solution using a phenol in kerosene has also been developed (23). 

The strength of articles based on phenolic compositions and solidified without additional pressure and heat supply is 2-4 times lower than the strength of thermally solidified resins this limits their applications as engineering materials. One of the primary causes of material strength decrease is pore formation due to volatilization of water and formaldehyde during polycondensation. Different water adsorbents (calcium carbonate, clay, silicates, methasilicates, zeolites, etc.) should be... 

O-Aryl-A X-dicyclohexylisoureas are synthesized by stirring mixtures of phenols with 2-3 mol equiv. of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide at 45-100 C for 1-3 d. Hydrogenations are accomplished in isopropyl alcohol or ethyl acetate at 20 °C and atmospheric pressure using 200-300 mg of 5% palladium on carbon or on calcium carbonate per 0.02 mol of the phenol. The hydrogenolysis can also be effected with the crude mixture of the O-arylisoureas and the unreacted carlx iimide using as much hydrogen as needed for hydrogenation of the excess carbodiimide. 

Asbestos-reinforced organic binders (thermoplastics, duroplasts and elastomers) are widely utilized e.g. hardenable molding materials on the basis of asbestos-reinforced phenol or melamine resins for the manufacture of insulating components for combustion engines, components for electrical installations, cogwheels etc. Possible fiber substitutes are glass fibers, carbon fibers and other synthetic fibers (e.g. aramide fibers) and non-fiber fillers such as calcium carbonate, clay or talcum. 

Typical fillers calcium carbonate, talc, glass fiber, glass beads, glass flakes, silica flour, wollastonite, mica, sepiolite, magnesium hydroxide, carbon black, clay, metal powders (aluminum, iron, nickel), steel fiber, si-licium carbide, phenolic microspheres, wood fiber and flour, antimony trioxide, hydrotalcite, zinc borate, bismuth carbonate, red phosphorus, potassium-magnesium aluminosilicate, fly ash, hydromagnesite-huntite... 

In SBR the compounding ingredients can be (1) reinforcing fillers, such as carbon black and silica, which improve tensile strength or tear strength (2) inert fillers and pigments, such as clay, talc, and calcium carbonate, which make the polymer easier to mold or extrude and also lower the cost (3) plasticizers and extenders, such as mineral oils, fatty acids, and esters (4) antioxidants, basically amines or phenols, which stop the chain propagation in oxidation and (5) curatives, such as sulfur for unsaturated polymers and peroxides for saturated polymers, which are essential to form the network of cross-links that ensure elasticity rather than flow. 

Similar to the previous formulation, the rheological properties are regulated with extensive use of fillers. Here, a typical combination of coarse, untreated limestone and special surface-treated calcium carbonate is used. This formulation also differs from the previous one in that it includes blocked polyisocyanurate which can react at elevated temperature after phenol blocking is removed by dissociation at elevated temperature.

Mineral fillers used are calcium carbonate (CaCOj), China Clay (Al/0H [Si.,0 J), miea especially muscovite (KAyOHjFlJAlSijOj J), silica flour (SiO ), talc (Mg, (OH)j[Si Oj J), and wollastonite (CaSiOj). Parameters that need to be considered during inorganic filler selection are basicity, filler impurities that may influence the resin euring proeess, and filler hardness that eauses abrasion of the mold [1]. Mica filled phenolics are used in electrical parts because mica adds outstanding dielectric properties, high thermal and chemical resistance and low water absorption [1]. 

Selected unsaturated carboxylic acids are particularly useful as coupling agents for calcium carbonate-type fillers. They interact strongly with the basic surface of the carbonate, unlike silanes that only show a weak interaction. In addition, unlike simple saturated carboxylic acids, which just have a beneficial effect on impact strength, unsaturated carboxylic acids may increase tensile strength. Table 6.5 illustrates this effect in a 60% filled CaCOs/PP homopolymer system. This system is heavily stabilized with both hindered phenol and phosphite-type antioxidants, and a small amount of peroxide was therefore added. 

Ymyl chloride-aaylic acid copolymer and epoxy resin latices and a phenol formaldehyde resin solution were used to modify sand-cement mortars at room tanperature. The compression strength increased with an increase in the latex/resin concentration and with the addition of calcium chloride or calcium carbonate and a superplasticiser. Tensile and flexural strengths also increased with polymer incorporation. The porosity of the modified mortars decreased with the addition of resin. The percentage of water absorption and acid solubility decreased for the latex/resin modified samples. 21 refs. INDIA... 

Unsaturated monomers have been adsorbed on to fillers and then polymerised to give encapsulated products. The modulus of the polymer could be modified by selecting the monomer [40]. Acrylic acid-vinyl chloride (1 99) has been polymerised on to calcium carbonate [41] reports of the use of 3,5-triacryloxyhexahydro-S-triazine [42], bis-phenol A and epichlorohydrin [43], methyl methacrylate [44], and acrylic acid [45] have also been published.
