Abstract:
Colorless oligomers of diisopropylbenzene are prepared by reacting an isomer mixture containing m- and pdiisopropylbenzenes with an organic peroxide in the presence of an inorganic reducing agent. The oligomers may be used as synergists for flameproofing thermoplastics with bromine compounds.
Abstract:
A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF POLYPROPYLENE-BASED MOLDING MATERIALS HAVING IMPROVED IMPACT STRENGTH AT LOW TEMPERATURES. IN THIS PROCESS A POLYPROPYLENE HAVING A RELATIVELY HIGH FRACTION SOLUBLE IN HEPTANE IS KNEADED AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURE WITH RELATIVELY SMALL AMOUNTS OF AN ELASTOMERIC POLYMER CONTAINING POLYMERIZED UNITS OF A 1,3-DIENE WITH THE ADDITION OF FREE RADICAL-FORMING CATALYSTS.
Abstract:
A process for the production in powdered form of a polymer containing carboxylic acid or carboxylic anhydride groups in which the monomers are polymerized with agitation in the presence of an auxiliary liquid in such a way that the surface of the mixture is increased by a multiple with respect to the stagnant mixture and then the auxiliary liquid is distilled off. The powdered polymer is particularly suitable as a surface sizing agent for paper.
Abstract:
A THERMOSTABLE POLYPHENYLENE ETHER IS OBTAINED BY OXIDATIVE COUPLING OF A TRISUBSTITUTED PHENOL AND TREATMENT OF THE POLYMERIC PRODUCT WITH A THIOL. POLYPHENYLENE ETHERS OBTAINED BY THE OXIDATIVE COUPLING OF TRISUBSTITUTED PHENOLS IN THE PRESENCE OF OXYGEN, AN ORGANIC SOLVENT AND A COPPER/AMINE COMPLEX ARE ACTED UPON AT TEMPERATURE BETWEEN 10* AND 100*C. FOR AT LEAST 5 SECONDS BY A THIOL OF THE GENERAL FORMULA HSR2 WHERE R2 STANDS FOR A LINEAR, BRANCHED OR CYCLIC ALKYL RADICAL HAVING FROM 2 TO 20 CARBONS ATOMS,

1,138,299. Stereoblock butadiene polymers. BADISCHE ANILIN- & SODA-FABRIK A.G. 3 May, 1966 [4 May, 1965], No. 19366/66. Heading C3P. Stereoblock polymers are made by polymerizing butadiene with a Ziegler-Natta type catalyst comprising an alkyl metal compound and a compound of a transition metal of Groups IV to VIII, and whilst unreacted butadiene is still present in the polymerization mixture adding a catalyst of the same type but which converts butadiene into a polymer whose configuration is different to the configuration of the polybutadiene first prepared, and continuing the polymerization. In examples, effected in solvents, the following catalysts are used: (1) (C 2 H 5 ) 3 Al, AlBr 3 , and TiI 4 , followed by (C 2 H 5 ) 3 Al and VCl 3 , (2) as (1) but VCl 3 replaced by VCl 4 , (3) (C 4 H 9 ) 3 Al and TiCl 3 , followed by (C 2 H 5 ) 2 AlI and TiCl 3 , (4) (C 4 H 9 ) 2 AlCl and TiCl 3 , followed by (C 2 H 5 ) 2 AlI and TiCl 3 , (5) (C 2 H 5 ) 3 Al and TiCl 4 , followed by (C 2 H 5 ) 2 AlI and TiCl 3 , (6) (C 4 H 9 ) 3 Al and Ti(-OC 4 H 9 ) 4 , followed by (C 2 H 5 ) 3 Al and VCl 3 , (7) Cr triacetylacetonate and (C 4 H 9 ) 3 Al followed by (C 4 H 9 ) 3 Al, (8) Sn(C 4 H 9 ) 4 and ZrCl 4 , followed by amyl Na and TiCl 3 . The polymers may be sulphur vulcanized.
