Poly salt resins

Ihe quest for interactive or bioactive dental restorative materials is not a totally new endeavor in dental materials. For example, as a general concept, glass ionomer cements (GICs) have been endorsed as a bioactive material because of their dynamic release of fluoride, as well as their unique mineral-based poly-salt matrix composition that is claimed to also contribute to the ability to remineralize calcium-depleted tooth structure. The continuous release of fluoride by GICs and resin-modified glass ionomers (RMGIs) has also been positioned as a potential mechanism to delay or inhibit secondary caries at teeth restored with these materials at the margins of the restorations [47,48].

Heat-reactive resins are more compatible than oil-soluble resins with other polar-coating resins, such as amino, epoxy, and poly(vinyl butyral). They are used in interior-can and dmm linings, metal primers, and pipe coatings. The coatings have excellent resistance to solvents, acids, and salts. They can be used over a wide range of temperatures, up to 370°C for short periods of dry heat, and continuously at 150°C. Strong alkaUes should be avoided. 

Poly(ethylene oxide) associates in solution with certain electrolytes (48—52). For example, high molecular weight species of poly(ethylene oxide) readily dissolve in methanol that contains 0.5 wt % KI, although the resin does not remain in methanol solution at room temperature. This salting-in effect has been attributed to ion binding, which prevents coagulation in the nonsolvent. Complexes with electrolytes, in particular lithium salts, have received widespread attention on account of the potential for using these materials in a polymeric battery. The performance of soHd electrolytes based on poly(ethylene oxide) in terms of ion transport and conductivity has been discussed (53—58). The use of complexes of poly(ethylene oxide) in analytical chemistry has also been reviewed (59). 

Polymers. In combination with various metal salts, sorbitol is used as a stabilizer against heat and light in poly(vinyl chloride) (qv) resins and, with a phenohc antioxidant, as a stabilizer in uncured styrene—butadiene mbber (qv) compositions and in polyolefins (see Heat stabilizers Olefin POLYMERS Rubbercompounding). Heat-sealable films are prepared from a dispersion of sorbitol and starch in water (255). Incorporation of sorbitol in coUagen films gready restricts their permeabiUty to carbon dioxide (256). 

Some commercial durable antistatic finishes have been Hsted in Table 3 (98). Early patents suggest that amino resins (qv) can impart both antisHp and antistatic properties to nylon, acryUc, and polyester fabrics. CycHc polyurethanes, water-soluble amine salts cross-linked with styrene, and water-soluble amine salts of sulfonated polystyrene have been claimed to confer durable antistatic protection. Later patents included dibydroxyethyl sulfone [2580-77-0] hydroxyalkylated cellulose or starch, poly(vinyl alcohol) [9002-86-2] cross-linked with dimethylolethylene urea, chlorotria2ine derivatives, and epoxy-based products. Other patents claim the use of various acryUc polymers and copolymers. Essentially, durable antistats are polyelectrolytes, and the majority of usehil products involve variations of cross-linked polyamines containing polyethoxy segments (92,99—101). 

Polyarylether Ketones. The aromatic polyether ketones are tme thermoplastics. Although several are commercially available, two resins in particular, poly ether ether ketone [31694-16-3] (PEEK) from ICI and poly ether ketone ketone (PEKK) from Du Pont, have received most of the attention. PEEK was first synthesized in 1981 (20) and has been well studied it is the subject of numerous papers because of its potential use in high performance aircraft. Tough, semicrystalline PEEK is prepared by the condensation of bis(4-fiuorophenyl) ketone with the potassium salt of bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) ketone in a diaryl sulfone solvent, such as diphenyl sulfone. The choice of solvent is critical other solvents, such as Hquid HE, promote the reaction but lead to premature low molecular-weight crystals, which do not exhibit sufficient toughness (21). 

The most chemical-resistant plastic commercially available today is tetrafluoroethylene or TFE (Teflon). This thermoplastic is practically unaffected by all alkahes and acids except fluorine and chlorine gas at elevated temperatures and molten metals. It retains its properties up to 260°C (500°F). Chlorotrifluoroethylene or CTFE (Kel-F, Plaskon) also possesses excellent corrosion resistance to almost all acids and alkalies up to 180°C (350°F). A Teflon derivative has been developed from the copolymerization of tetrafluoroethylene and hexafluoropropylene. This resin, FEP, has similar properties to TFE except that it is not recommended for continuous exposures at temperatures above 200°C (400°F). Also, FEP can be extruded on conventional extrusion equipment, while TFE parts must be made by comphcated powder-metallurgy techniques. Another version is poly-vinylidene fluoride, or PVF2 (Kynar), which has excellent resistance to alkahes and acids to 150°C (300°F). It can be extruded. A more recent development is a copolymer of CTFE and ethylene (Halar). This material has excellent resistance to strong inorganic acids, bases, and salts up to 150°C. It also can be extruded. 

It is well known that anionic samples tend to adsorb on poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) resins. However, cationic samples tend to be repelled from the resins. The mechanism seems to be an ionic interaction, although the poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) resin should be neutral. The reason is not well clarified. Therefore, it is recommended to add some salt in the elution solvent when adsorption or repulsion is observed in the analyses of polar samples. For example, polysulfone can be analyzed successfully using dimethylformamide containing 10 mM lithium bromide as an elution solvent, as shown in Fig. 4.42. 

The structures of these ylide polymers were determined and confirmed by IR and NMR spectra. These were the first stable sulfonium ylide polymers reported in the literature. They are very important for such industrial uses as ion-exchange resins, polymer supports, peptide synthesis, polymeric reagent, and polyelectrolytes. Also in 1977, Hass and Moreau [60] found that when poly(4-vinylpyridine) was quaternized with bromomalonamide, two polymeric quaternary salts resulted. These polyelectrolyte products were subjected to thermal decyana-tion at 7200°C to give isocyanic acid or its isomer, cyanic acid. The addition of base to the solution of polyelectro-lyte in water gave a yellow polymeric ylide. 

Commercially available poly(a-D)galacturonic acid PGA) was purchased from Fluka Chemie. To obtain an aqueous solution of the polyacid, insoluble PGA was converted to its soluble sodium salt and then percolated through a cation-exchange resin in the H-form [3]. 

The two matrices in these cements are of a different nature an ionomer salt hydrogel and polyHEMA. For thermodynamic reasons, they do not interpenetrate but phase-separate as they are formed. In order to prevent phase separation, another version of resin glass polyalkenoate cement has been formulated by Mitra (1989). This is marketed as VitraBond, which we term a class II material. In these materials poly(acrylic acid), PAA, is replaced by modified PAAs. In these modified PAAs a small fraction of the pendant -COOH groups are converted to unsaturated groups by condensation reaction with a methacrylate containing a reactive terminal group. These methacrylates can be represented by the formula ... 

While "conventional positive photoresists" are sensitive, high-resolution materials, they are essentially opaque to radiation below 300 nm. This has led researchers to examine alternate chemistry for deep-UV applications. Examples of deep-UV sensitive dissolution inhibitors include aliphatic diazoketones (61-64) and nitrobenzyl esters (65). Certain onium salts have also recently been shown to be effective inhibitors for phenolic resins (66). A novel e-beam sensitive dissolution inhibition resist was designed by Bowden, et al a (67) based on the use of a novolac resin with a poly(olefin sulfone) dissolution inhibitor. The aqueous, base-soluble novolac is rendered less soluble via addition of -10 wt % poly(2-methyl pentene-1 sulfone)(PMPS). Irradiation causes main chain scission of PMPS followed by depolymerization to volatile monomers (68). The dissolution inhibitor is thus effectively "vaporized", restoring solubility in aqueous base to the irradiated portions of the resist. Alternate resist systems based on this chemistry have also been reported (69,70). 

In another application, the diazonium salt (D1 or D2) (2.5 wt%) was dissolved in a mixture of cyclohexanone and acetic acid containing 12.5 wt% poly(4-hydroxystyrene) and 2. 5 wt% Methylone resin (GE 75108). The resist was exposed with a 600-W Xe-Hg lamp through a 313-nm interference filter. After exposure the resist was baked at 80V for 3 minutes and developed in a 1 wt% tetramethylammonium hydroxide aqueous solution. 

A mechanistic study by Haynes et al. demonstrated that the same basic reaction cycle operates for rhodium-catalysed methanol carbonylation in both homogeneous and supported systems [59]. The catalytically active complex [Rh(CO)2l2] was supported on an ion exchange resin based on poly(4-vinylpyridine-co-styrene-co-divinylbenzene) in which the pendant pyridyl groups had been quaternised by reaction with Mel. Heterogenisation of the Rh(I) complex was achieved by reaction of the quaternised polymer with the dimer, [Rh(CO)2l]2 (Scheme 11). Infrared spectroscopy revealed i (CO) bands for the supported [Rh(CO)2l2] anions at frequencies very similar to those observed in solution spectra. The structure of the supported complex was confirmed by EXAFS measurements, which revealed a square planar geometry comparable to that found in solution and the solid state. The first X-ray crystal structures of salts of [Rh(CO)2l2]" were also reported in this study. 

A number of efforts have been devoted to the simplified, acid catalyzed reaction between dihydropyran and alcohols to form THP-ethers. Thus, employing the hydrochloride salt of Reillex 425 (34) [a cross-linked macroreticular poly(4-vinylpyri-dine) resin] the tetrahydropyranylation even of hindered alcohols proceeds under mild conditions in high yields without side-reactions (Scheme 4.20) [107]. 

Bipyridine (217) has been attached to crosslinked poly(styrene) (162 Scheme 105) (77JA7733). Complexation of metal salts with resin (218) was described as being strikingly facile, and fairly large capacities for Fe3+, Ni2+ and Pd2+ ions were observed.
