Polymer polystyrene-sulfonate

Polymer supported reagents, catalysts, protecting groups, and mediators can be used in place of the corresponding small molecule materials (Sherrington, 1991 Sundell and Nasman, 1993). The reactive species is tightly bound to a macromolecular support which immobilizes it. This generally makes toxic, noxious, or corrosive materials much safer. The use of polystyrene sulfonic acid catalyst for the manufacture of methyl r-butyl... 

The GBR resin works well for nonionic and certain ionic polymers such as various native and derivatized starches, including sodium carboxymethylcel-lulose, methylcellulose, dextrans, carrageenans, hydroxypropyl methylcellu-lose, cellulose sulfate, and pullulans. GBR columns can be used in virtually any solvent or mixture of solvents from hexane to 1 M NaOH as long as they are miscible. Using sulfonated PDVB gels, mixtures of methanol and 0.1 M Na acetate will run many polar ionic-type polymers such as poly-2-acrylamido-2-methyl-l-propanesulfonic acid, polystyrene sulfonic acids, and poly aniline/ polystyrene sulfonic acid. Sulfonated columns can also be used with water glacial acetic acid mixtures, typically 90/10 (v/v). Polyacrylic acids run well on sulfonated gels in 0.2 M NaAc, pH 7.75. 

Commercial narrow standards [such as poly(ethylene glycol) (pEG), polystyrene sulfonate, pAA, poly w-vinyl pyrrolidinone, dextrans] are available from American Polymer Standards Corporation, Polymer Laboratories, Polymer Standards Service USA, Toyo Soda, and others. While these standards are often not as narrow as pSty or pMMA that has been anionically polymerized, they are acceptable for narrow standard calibrations. 

CE has been used for the analysis of anionic surfactants [946,947] and can be considered as complementary to HPLC for the analysis of cationic surfactants with advantages of minimal solvent consumption, higher efficiency, easy cleaning and inexpensive replacement of columns and the ability of fast method development by changing the electrolyte composition. Also the separation of polystyrene sulfonates with polymeric additives by CE has been reported [948]. Moreover, CE has also been used for the analysis of polymeric water treatment additives, such as acrylic acid copolymer flocculants, phosphonates, low-MW acids and inorganic anions. The technique provides for analyst time-savings and has lower detection limits and improved quantification for determination of anionic polymers, compared to HPLC. 

Stabilizing agents are used to maintain drilling fluid rheological properties at highly elevated downhole temperatures. Chromium and chromium-free lignosulfonates, polyglycol ethers, sodium polystyrene sulfonate-co-maleic anhydride), and a melanin polymer have been used in this application. Additives such as sodium diethyldi-thiocarbamate have been used to stabilize aqueous polysaccharides such as xanthan gum (18). 

The aim of this paper is to offer experimental results for the molecular weight dependence of adsorption of polystyrene-sulfonate) onto a platinum plate from aqueous NaCl solution at 25 °C. Measurements of poly(styrenesulfonate) adsorption were carried out by ellipsometry. The dependences of molecular weight and added salt concentration on the thickness of the adsorbed layer and also the adsorbances of polymer and salt are examined.

The first section, Chemical Reactions on Polymers, deals with aspects of chemical reactions occurring on polymers—aspects relating to polymer size, shape, and composition are described in detail. One of the timely fields of applications comprises the use of modified polymers as catalysts (such as the immobilization of centers for homogeneous catalysis). This topic is considered in detail in Chapters 2, 3, 8, 9, and 11 and dealt with to a lesser extent in other chapters. The use of models and neighboring group effect(s) is described in detail. The modification of polymers for chemical and physical change is also described in detail in Chapters 2 (polystyrene) 4 (polyvinyl chloride) 5 (polyacrylic acid, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethyleneimine, and polyacrylamide) 6 (polyimides) 7 (polyvinyl alcohol) 8 (polystyrene sulfonate and polyvinylphosphonate) 10 (polyacrylamide) and 12 (organotin carboxylates). 

An alternative approach for covalent polymer attachment is called the grafting from method. This method is based on binding the monomer precursor to the nanotube and generating chain growth directly from the tube. By these means, several types of polymers could be grafted, such as polystyrene-sulfonate [46], polyvinylpyri-dine [47], polystyrene [48] and many others. 

In the polymer prepared at -78°, the R value is nearly one and so almost the only sequence present is SMS. This enables this assignment to be made with confidence. The homopolymer type sequence, —MMM—, can be assigned by reference to the paper of Coleman, et a. ( ) on polychloroprene, to which we have already made reference. The sequences MMS and SMM can be assigned as shown by appealing to chemical shift rules similar to those we have already discussed for polystyrene sulfone ... 

Various polymer acids are used as polymer catalysts. Sulfonated polystyrene (Eq. 9-39) has been used to catalyze a variety of acid-catalyzed reactions, including acetal and ketal... 

Many other polymeric systems are of interest in polymer LEDs. Polythiophenes have been known for some time but it was not until improved synthetic methods were developed that their potential was realised. The process involves the reaction of the substituted monomer with FeClj in chloroform solution. After polymerisation has occurred the product precipitates and is isolated and washed. Further special purification methods are required to obtain satisfactorily pure materials. One product, of commercial interest, developed by Bayer is poly(ethylenedioxy)thiophene, known as PEDOT (3.110). This product when doped with polystyrene sulfonate, sold as Baytron P, has been found to be effective as a conducting, hole-injecting layer on the ITO electrode. ... 

In a related application, polyelectrolyte microgels based on crosslinked cationic poly(allyl amine) and anionic polyfmethacrylic acid-co-epoxypropyl methacrylate) were studied by potentiometry, conductometry and turbidimetry [349]. In their neutralized (salt) form, the microgels fully complexed with linear polyelectrolytes (poly(acrylic acid), poly(acrylic acid-co-acrylamide), and polystyrene sulfonate)) as if the gels were themselves linear. However, if an acid/base reaction occurs between the linear polymers and the gels, it appears that only the surfaces of the gels form complexes. Previous work has addressed the fundamental characteristics of these complexes [350, 351] and has shown preferential complexation of cationic polyelectrolytes with crosslinked car-boxymethyl cellulose versus linear CMC [350], The departure from the 1 1 stoichiometry with the non-neutralized microgels may be due to the collapsed nature of these networks which prevents penetration of water soluble polyelectrolyte.

In an opposite manner to bases such as 1 and 2 in terms of reactivity, polymer-supported tosyl chloride equivalent 14 is able to capture alcohols as polymer-bound sulfonates 15, which are released as secondary amines, sulfides and alkylated imidazoles with primary amines, thiols and imidazoles as nucleophiles in a substitution process (Scheme 6) [24]. This technique has further been extended for the preparation of tertiary amines [25] and esters [26]. Excess of amine was scavenged by polymer-supported isocyanate 16 [27, 28] while excess of carboxylic acid was removed by treatment with aminomethylated polystyrene 17.
