Molybdenum is also a smoke suppressant for poly(vinyl chloride). It promotes the formation of cis- rather than the trans-polymeric decomposition products which ate the precursors for smoke. The sources for molybdates ate Climax Performance Material Cotp. and Sherwin WiUiams. [Pg.458]

Membranes and Osmosis. Membranes based on PEI can be used for the dehydration of organic solvents such as 2-propanol, methyl ethyl ketone, and toluene (451), and for concentrating seawater (452—454). On exposure to ultrasound waves, aqueous PEI salt solutions and brominated poly(2,6-dimethylphenylene oxide) form stable emulsions from which it is possible to cast membranes in which submicrometer capsules of the salt solution ate embedded (455). The rate of release of the salt solution can be altered by surface—active substances. In membranes, PEI can act as a proton source in the generation of a photocurrent (456). The formation of a PEI coating on ion-exchange membranes modifies the transport properties and results in permanent selectivity of the membrane (457). The electrochemical testing of salts (458) is another possible appHcation of PEI. [Pg.14]

The nomenclature of macromolecules can be compHcated when there is Httle or no regularity in the molecules for such molecules, the stmctural details may also be uncertain. In cases where the macromolecule is a polymeric chain with some uncertainties about regularity in its stmcture, a simple expedient is to name the polymer after the monomer that gave rise to it. Thus there are source-based names such as poly(vinyl chloride). [Pg.120]

Examples of the two macromolecular nomenclature systems are as foUows. For source-based names for homopolymers and copolymers polyacrylonitrile, poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(acrylainide- (9-vinylpyrroHdinone), polybutadiene- /oi / -polystyrene, and poly(propyl... [Pg.120]

The more familiar source-based names for these polymers are poly(phenylene oxide) (1), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (2), and polycaprolactam (3). [Pg.120]

Noncrystalline aromatic polycarbonates (qv) and polyesters (polyarylates) and alloys of polycarbonate with other thermoplastics are considered elsewhere, as are aHphatic polyesters derived from natural or biological sources such as poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), poly(glycoHde), or poly(lactide) these, too, are separately covered (see Polymers, environmentally degradable Sutures). Thermoplastic elastomers derived from poly(ester—ether) block copolymers such as PBT/PTMEG-T [82662-36-0] and known by commercial names such as Hytrel and Riteflex are included here in the section on poly(butylene terephthalate). Specific polymers are dealt with largely in order of volume, which puts PET first by virtue of its enormous market volume in bottie resin. [Pg.292]

Bayer marketed PPS compounds in the United States under the trade name Tedur, but the company has exited the PPS business. PPS is also marketed in the United States by GE Plastics, whose source of neat resin is Tosoh Corporation of Japan. GE Plastics markets PPS under the trade name Supec PPS. Patent activity by Tennessee Eastman describes an alternative process for the production of poly(phenylene sulfide/disulfide), although samples of such product have not appeared as of early 1996. Both Phillips and Hoechst Celanese have aimounced plans to debotdeneck their existing U.S. faciUties in order to meet anticipated market growth. [Pg.442]

There are numerous misconceptions about the sources of various chemical elements in waste, particularly those that are potential acid formers when the waste is incinerated or mechanically converted and used as a refuse-derived fuel. For example, it is often mistakenly stated that the source of chlorine in waste, hence a potential source of HCl emissions, is poly(vinyl chloride). The relative contents of selected, potentially acid-forming elements in the organic portion of a sample of waste collected from various households in one U.S. East Coast city is given in Table 2 (17). In this city, a chief source of chlorine in the waste is NaCl, probably from food waste. [Pg.543]

In the suspension polymerization of PVC, droplets of monomer 30—150 p.m in diameter are dispersed in water by agitation. A thin membrane is formed at the water—monomer interface by dispersants such as poly(vinyl alcohol) or methyl cellulose. This membrane, isolated by dissolving the PVC in tetrahydrofuran and measured at 0.01—0.02-p.m thick, has been found to be a graft copolymer of polyvinyl chloride and poly(vinyl alcohol) (4,5). Early in the polymerization, particles of PVC deposit onto the membrane from both the monomer and the water sides, forming a skin 0.5—5-p.m thick that can be observed on grains sectioned after polymerization (4,6). Primary particles, 1 p.m in diameter, deposit onto the membrane from the monomer side (Pig. 1), whereas water-phase polymer, 0.1 p.m in diameter, deposits onto the skin from the water side of the membrane (Pig. 2) (4). These domain-sized water-phase particles may be one source of the observed domain stmcture (7). [Pg.495]

The acetone supply is strongly influenced by the production of phenol, and so the small difference between total demand and the acetone suppHed by the cumene oxidation process is made up from other sources. The largest use for acetone is in solvents although increasing amounts ate used to make bisphenol A [80-05-7] and methyl methacrylate [80-62-6]. a-Methylstyrene [98-83-9] is produced in controlled quantities from the cleavage of cumene hydroperoxide, or it can be made directly by the dehydrogenation of cumene. About 2% of the cumene produced in 1987 went to a-methylstyrene manufacture for use in poly (a-methylstyrene) and as an ingredient that imparts heat-resistant quaUties to polystyrene plastics. [Pg.364]

Many similar hydrocarbon duids such as kerosene and other paraffinic and naphthenic mineral oils and vegetable oils such as linseed oil [8001-26-17, com oil, soybean oil [8001-22-7] peanut oil, tall oil [8000-26-4] and castor oil are used as defoamers. Liquid fatty alcohols, acids and esters from other sources and poly(alkylene oxide) derivatives of oils such as ethoxylated rosin oil [68140-17-0] are also used. Organic phosphates (6), such as tributyl phosphate, are valuable defoamers and have particular utiHty in latex paint appHcations. Another important class of hydrocarbon-based defoamer is the acetylenic glycols (7), such as 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol which are widely used in water-based coatings, agricultural chemicals, and other areas where excellent wetting is needed. [Pg.463]

Today a very wide range of acrylic materials is available with a broad property spectrum. The word acrylic, often used as a noun as well as an adjective in everyday use, can mean quite different things to different people. In the plastics industry it is commonly taken to mean poly(methyl methacrylate) plastics, but the word has different meanings, to the fibre chemist and to those working in the paint and adhesives industries. Unless care is taken this may be a source of some confusion. [Pg.399]

Cured phenolics are universally brittle in nature. This is true of both resoles and novolacs and does not depend much on the source of methylene used to promote cure. Consequently, the fillers used in molded articles are highly important to the design of the manufactured product. With resoles, the fiber or filler are usually the primary component of the final composite, with the resole acting as a binder or impregnating agent. With novolacs the resin may be the major component in the molded part. Poly-silanes and other organic polymers are also added in some applications to promote impact resistance and toughness [192]. [Pg.925]
