摘要:
This invention provides a process to produce aromatic sulfide/sulfone polymers exhibiting high molecular weight, and having a light or "whitish" coloration. This process employs a dihaloaromatic sulfone, a sulfur-containing compound and a 1,3-dialkyl-2-imidazolidinone. These lighter colored polymers are more preferable commercially and may be useful in the production of coatings, films, molded objects, and glass or carbon fiber composites.
摘要:
A reinforced plastic is provided which comprises a poly(arylene sulfide sulfone) polymer matrix and fibrous reinforcement. The fibrous reinforcement is treated with a poly(arylene sulfide sulfone) polymer containing ether groups prior to forming the reinforced plastic. Such treatment improves the mechanical strength of the reinforced plastic.
摘要:
Aromatic sulfide/ketone polymer is prepared from dihaloaromatic ketone, alkali metal sulfide, water and a polar organic compound. The polymerization reaction mixture comprising the aromatic sulfide/ketone polymer is subjected to a heat soak at elevated temperature then a separation agent (non-solvent) is added under controlled conditions and subsequently cooled to provide a mixture comprising particulate aromatic sulfide/ketone polymer.Biaxially-oriented film is made from recovered particles of aromatic sulfide/ketone polymer prepared as described by (1) washing the polymer particles with an aqueous calcium salt, (2) heating said washed particles to remove water, wherein the resulting heated particles are at least partially crystalline, (3) molding said heating particles to form a sheet of polymer, (4) biaxially stretching said sheet above the glass transition temperature of the polymer to form a film, and (5) heat-setting said biazially-oriented film under stretching tension for a time and at a temperature to increase strength properties and density.

摘要:
Poly(arylene sulfide) polymers containing sulfone, ether and biphenyl groups are prepared by a two step process. In the first step, a diphenol is reacted with either a dihaloaromatic sulfone monomer or a bis(haloarylsulfonyl) biphenyl monomer, or both, in the presence of an alkali metal base and a polar organic compound. In the second step, the reaction mixture above is reacted with a sulfur source, and any monomer which was not employed in the first step, if any. The polymers prepared according to the invention process exhibit increased glass transition temperatures over those of known poly(arylene sulfide) polymers. The structure of repeating units of the polymer can be controlled by varying the sequence of addition of the monomers.
摘要:
A first reaction mixture of at least one dihalo aromatic sulfone, at least one polyhydroxy aromatic compound, at least one organic amide and at least one alkali metal carbonate is contacted under polymerization conditions including a period of time at a temperature sufficient to form a reaction product, with the resulting product mixture being contacted with at least one polymerizable sulfur source, at least one organic amide, at least one alkali metal carboxylate, and water under polymerization conditions including a period of time at a temperature sufficient to form a branched aromatic sulfide sulfone polymer. The resulting polymers are useful in the production of coatings, films, molded objects, and fibers.
摘要:
A process is provided for producing a poly(arylene sulfide) polymer which employs waste material comprising poly(arylene sulfide) polymer that is normally discarded or otherwise disposed of, wherein the waste stream is contacted with a polymerization reaction mixture under polymerization conditions. The waste material can optionally contain other components such as cyclic and linear oligomers, inorganic salts, polar organic compounds and water.
摘要:
A novel treatment and recovery process is provided which produces commercially desirable high molecular weight poly(arylene sulfide)s from undesirable low molecular weight poly(arylene sulfide)s. The novel process reduces the quantity of low molecular weight poly(arylene sulfide)s which otherwise have little or no commercial value and can require disposal.
