Styrene controlling

The kinetic modeling of styrene controlled radical polymerization, initiated by 2,2 -asobis(isobutimitrile) and proceeding by a reversible ehain transfer meeha-nism was carried out and accompanied by addition-fragmentation in the presenee dibenzyltiitiocarbonate. An inverse problem of determination of the unknown temperature dependences of single elementary reaction rate eonstants of kinetic scheme was solved. The adequacy of the model was revealed by comparison of theoretical and experimental values of polystyrene molecular-mass properties. The influence of process controlling factors on polystyrene molecular-mass properties was studied using the model. [Pg.92]

Kinetic scheme, introduced for description of styrene controlled radical polymerization process in the presence of trithio carbonates, includes the following phases. [Pg.93]

Microemulsion polymerization was used to synthesize ultraflne (diameters of 10-100 and 20-120 nm) latex particles with narrow particle size distribution and controlled size and surface [62,63], Using relative amounts of polymeric surfactant with respect to styrene controlled the particle size. The particle surface was easily modified by addition of functional comonomers or additives incorporated in the interface. The particles synthesized can be used to prepare a material with the ability of selective ion binding. [Pg.272]

Compositional control ia suspension systems can be achieved with a corrected batch process. A suspension process has been described where styrene monomer is continuously added until 75—85% conversion, and then the excess acrylonittile monomer is removed by stripping with an iaert gas... [Pg.195]

In addition to graft copolymer attached to the mbber particle surface, the formation of styrene—acrylonitrile copolymer occluded within the mbber particle may occur. The mechanism and extent of occluded polymer formation depends on the manufacturing process. The factors affecting occlusion formation in bulk (77) and emulsion processes (78) have been described. The use of block copolymers of styrene and butadiene in bulk systems can control particle size and give rise to unusual particle morphologies (eg, coil, rod, capsule, cellular) (77). [Pg.204]

The monomer recovery process may vary ia commercial practice. A less desirable sequence is to filter or centrifuge the slurry to recover the polymer and then pass the filtrate through a conventional distillation tower to recover the unreacted monomer. The need for monomer recovery may be minimized by usiag two-stage filtration with filtrate recycle after the first stage. Nonvolatile monomers, such as sodium styrene sulfonate, can be partially recovered ia this manner. This often makes process control more difficult because some reaction by-products can affect the rate of polymerization and often the composition may vary. When recycle is used it is often done to control discharges iato the environment rather than to reduce monomer losses. [Pg.280]

G-5—G-9 Aromatic Modified Aliphatic Petroleum Resins. Compatibihty with base polymers is an essential aspect of hydrocarbon resins in whatever appHcation they are used. As an example, piperylene—2-methyl-2-butene based resins are substantially inadequate in enhancing the tack of 1,3-butadiene—styrene based random and block copolymers in pressure sensitive adhesive appHcations. The copolymerization of a-methylstyrene with piperylenes effectively enhances the tack properties of styrene—butadiene copolymers and styrene—isoprene copolymers in adhesive appHcations (40,41). Introduction of aromaticity into hydrocarbon resins serves to increase the solubiHty parameter of resins, resulting in improved compatibiHty with base polymers. However, the nature of the aromatic monomer also serves as a handle for molecular weight and softening point control. [Pg.354]

Styrenic block copolymers (SBCs) are also widely used in HMA and PSA appHcations. Most hot melt appHed pressure sensitive adhesives are based on triblock copolymers consisting of SIS or SBS combinations (S = styrene, I = isoprene B = butadiene). Pressure sensitive adhesives typically employ low styrene, high molecular weight SIS polymers while hot melt adhesives usually use higher styrene, lower molecular weight SBCs. Resins compatible with the mid-block of an SBC improves tack properties those compatible with the end blocks control melt viscosity and temperature performance. [Pg.358]

Catalyst Selection. The low resin viscosity and ambient temperature cure systems developed from peroxides have faciUtated the expansion of polyester resins on a commercial scale, using relatively simple fabrication techniques in open molds at ambient temperatures. The dominant catalyst systems used for ambient fabrication processes are based on metal (redox) promoters used in combination with hydroperoxides and peroxides commonly found in commercial MEKP and related perketones (13). Promoters such as styrene-soluble cobalt octoate undergo controlled reduction—oxidation (redox) reactions with MEKP that generate peroxy free radicals to initiate a controlled cross-linking reaction. [Pg.318]

Ethylbenzene Hydroperoxide Process. Figure 4 shows the process flow sheet for production of propylene oxide and styrene via the use of ethylbenzene hydroperoxide (EBHP). Liquid-phase oxidation of ethylbenzene with air or oxygen occurs at 206—275 kPa (30—40 psia) and 140—150°C, and 2—2.5 h are required for a 10—15% conversion to the hydroperoxide. Recycle of an inert gas, such as nitrogen, is used to control reactor temperature. Impurities ia the ethylbenzene, such as water, are controlled to minimize decomposition of the hydroperoxide product and are sometimes added to enhance product formation. Selectivity to by-products include 8—10% acetophenone, 5—7% 1-phenylethanol, and <1% organic acids. EBHP is concentrated to 30—35% by distillation. The overhead ethylbenzene is recycled back to the oxidation reactor (170—172). [Pg.139]

Styrene is Hsted in the U.S. Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) Inventory of Chemicals. It is not confirmed as a carcinogen but is considered a suspect carcinogen. The recommended exposure limits are OSHA PEL 50 ppm, ACGIH TLV 50 ppm. For higher concentrations,... [Pg.487]

Some polymers from styrene derivatives seem to meet specific market demands and to have the potential to become commercially significant materials. For example, monomeric chlorostyrene is useful in glass-reinforced polyester recipes because it polymerizes several times as fast as styrene (61). Poly(sodium styrenesulfonate) [9003-59-2] a versatile water-soluble polymer, is used in water-poUution control and as a general flocculant (see Water, INDUSTRIAL WATER TREATMENT FLOCCULATING AGENTs) (63,64). Poly(vinylhenzyl ammonium chloride) [70304-37-9] h.a.s been useful as an electroconductive resin (see Electrically conductive polya rs) (65). [Pg.507]

Considerable work has been done on mathematic models of the extmsion process, with particular emphasis on screw design. Good results are claimed for extmsion of styrene-based resins using these mathematical methods (229,232). With the advent of low cost computers, closed-loop control of... [Pg.523]
