Resin and Polymer Solvent. Dimethylacetamide is an exceUent solvent for synthetic and natural resins. It readily dissolves vinyl polymers, acrylates, ceUulose derivatives, styrene polymers, and linear polyesters. Because of its high polarity, DMAC has been found particularly useful as a solvent for polyacrylonitrile, its copolymers, and interpolymers. Copolymers containing at least 85% acrylonitrile dissolve ia DMAC to form solutions suitable for the production of films and yams (9). DMAC is reportedly an exceUent solvent for the copolymers of acrylonitrile and vinyl formate (10), vinylpyridine (11), or aUyl glycidyl ether (12). 

A further development in the coumarin series is the use of derivatives of 3-phenyl-7-aminocoumarin ((13) where R, R = Cl or substituted amines) as building blocks for a series of light-stable brighteners for various plastics and synthetic fibers, and, as the quatemi2ed compounds, for brightening polyacrylonitrile (62). 

Carbon Cha.in Backbone Polymers. These polymers may be represented by (4) and considered derivatives of polyethylene, where n is the degree of polymeriza tion and R is (an alkyl group or) a functional group hydrogen (polyethylene), methyl (polypropylene), carboxyl (poly(acryhc acid)), chlorine (poly(vinyl chloride)), phenyl (polystyrene) hydroxyl (poly(vinyl alcohol)), ester (poly(vinyl acetate)), nitrile (polyacrylonitrile), vinyl (polybutadiene), etc. The functional groups and the molecular weight of the polymers, control thek properties which vary in hydrophobicity, solubiUty characteristics, glass-transition temperature, and crystallinity. 

Many polymer films, eg, polyethylene and polyacrylonitrile, are permeable to carbon tetrachloride vapor (1). Carbon tetrachloride vapor affects the explosion limits of several gaseous mixtures, eg, air-hydrogen and air-methane. The extinctive effect that carbon tetrachloride has on a flame, mainly because of its cooling action, is derived from its high thermal capacity (2). 

C rbocyclic Azo Dyes. These dyes are the backbone of most commercial dye ranges. Based totally on benzene and naphthalene derivatives, they provide yellow, red, blue, and green colors for all the major substrates such as polyester, cellulose, nylon, polyacrylonitrile, and leather. Typical stmctures (26—30) are shown in Figure 4. 

Polymethine and Related Dyes. Cyanine dyes (qv) (46) aie the best known polymethine dyes. Nowadays, thek commeicial use is limited to sensitizing dyes for sdvei halide photogiaphy. However, derivatives of cyanine dyes provide important dyes for polyacrylonitrile. 

Low density, carbon fiber-carbon binder composites are fabricated from a variety of carbon fibers, including fibers derived from rayon, polyacrylonitrile (PAN), isotropic pitch, and mesophase pitch. The manufacture, structure, and properties of carbon fibers have been thoroughly reviewed elsewhere [3] and. therefore, are... 

The detection limits as substance per chromatogram zone are 1 pg for polyacrylonitrile [20] and 2-arylazo-2-nitroethane derivatives [19] and 6-100 ng for thiophosphate pesticides [16]. 

Most of the polymers are better known by their trivial names or trade names. Polymers prepared from single polymers are denoted by prefixing poly- to the name of the monomer, e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, Polyacrylonitrile, polystyrene, etc. If the monomer has substituents or has a multi-worded name, the name of the monomer is enclosed in parenthesis after the prefix poly-, e.g., poly (methyl methacrylate), poly (vinyl alcohol), etc. Condensation polymers like that derived from ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid are named as poly (ethylene terephthalate). 

CNF is an industrially produced derivative of carbon formed by the decomposition and graphitization of rich organic carbon polymers (Fig. 14.3). The most common precursor is polyacrylonitrile (PAN), as it yields high tensile and compressive strength fibers that have high resistance to corrosion, creep and fatigue. For these reasons, the fibers are widely used in the automotive and aerospace industries [1], Carbon fiber is an important ingredient of carbon composite materials, which are used in fuel cell construction, particularly in gas-diffusion layers where the fibers are woven to form a type of carbon cloth. 

The use of synthetic polymers in building and construction is also increasing at a rapid rate. Flooring is a mixture of wood, synthetic and clad wood, carpet, and tile, all polymeric. While carpets were once derived from natural materials such as cotton and wool, today almost all of them are derived from synthetic polymers and include nylon, polyester, olefins, and polyacrylonitrile. 

Several high production products for the dyeing of polyacrylonitrile textile fibres come from the azacarbocyanines class. Example in this class are the azacarbocyanine Basic Yellow 11 (2.27), synthesised from 2,4-dimethoxyaniline (2.26) and Fischer s aldehyde (2.25) the diazacarbocyanine Cl Basic Yellow 28 (2.30), synthesised from the diazonium derivative of (2.29) and Fischer s base (2.28) as shown in Figure 2.16. These dyes, although they are very bright, do tend to suffer from low fasteess to light. 

Heterocycles have also been introduced into the 3-position by condensation of a heterocyclic acetonitrile with an o-hydroxybenzaldehyde, as for example in the quaternized triazolyl derivative (95) which is used on polyacrylonitrile fibres. 

Oxidation of the saturated heterocycle to sulfoxide and sulfone derivatives affords solvents for the preparation of polyacrylonitrile (62BEP613056), or corrosion inhibitors (e.g. 147)... 

Similar systems were reported by Salvadori [50] and Lohray [51], who prepared different polyacrylonitrile- and polystyrene-supported 9-O-acylquinine derivatives. However, application of these systems afforded products with significantly lower enantiomeric excesses. In the case of Lohray s ligands, reuse of the polymeric ligands led to a decrease in enantioselectivity, and addition of osmium salt was necessary to maintain the catalytic activity. Despite Lohray s original report [51], one of his polymeric ligands was found by Song to be excellent for the oxidation of tnmv-stilbene with K3[Fe(CN6)] as secondary oxidant [52], Later, these results were critically evaluated by Sherrington [53],...
