摘要:
A process for preparing a polymer cement which is relatively free of alkali metal salt by preparing the polymer cement with a polymerization terminating agent which is a diketone which leaves alkali metal salt in the cement which is readily removable by centrifugation.
摘要:
A process for the concurrent epoxidation of, and catalyst residue extraction from, anionically polymerized diene-containing polymers which have been hydrogenated using a Group VIII metal catalyst, said process comprising:(a) introducing a catalyst residue-containing diene-containing polymer cement into a reactor,(b) heating the polymer cement to a temperature of 25.degree. to 65.degree. C.,(c) contacting the polymer cement with a caustic solution,(d) contacting the polymer cement with a peracid solution,(e) mixing the polymer, caustic, and acid at 25.degree. to 65.degree. C. for 1/2 to 3 hours,(f) optionally adding sufficient caustic solution to neutralize excess acid while continuing the mixing,(g) adding sufficient water such that the aqueous/organic phase weight ratio is from 0.2:1 to 1:1 while continuing the mixing,(h) allowing the phases to settle for 5 to 90 minutes,(i) removing the aqueous phase from the reactor,(j) optionally repeating steps (g), (h), and (i) until the catalyst residue contents are less than 10 ppm, and(k) removing the polymer cement from the reactor and removing the solvent to recover the epoxidized polymer.

A process is provided comprising the steps of contacting a Group VIII metal hydrogenation catalyst residue containing polymer solution with from about 2 to about 50 parts by weight water based on 100 parts by weight of polymer solution, centrifuging the polymer from metal containing particles with a centrifugal force such that the centrifugal force times the time duration of centrifugation divided by the viscosity of the polymer solution equals or exceeds about 50 G-minutes/cp, and recovering a polymer solution comprising less than 10 ppm by weight, based on the polymer, of the Group VIII metal.
