Abstract:
The present invention provides a material of high toughness that could not have been provided by an epoxy resin alone. The present invention provides a crosslinking composition having (A) one or more polyrotaxanes in which end-capping groups which prevent dissociation of the linear group are situated at both ends of a pseudo-polyrotaxane formed by inclusion of a linear molecule in the opening of a cyclic molecule by being threaded therethrough, the polyrotaxane having on the cyclic molecule a functional group that is capable of reacting with the oxirane group and/or the oxetane group, the functional group being one or more selected from the group consisting of carboxylic acid groups, carboxylate groups, primary amine groups, secondary amino groups, tertiary amino groups, phenol groups, the oxirane group, and the oxetane group, and (B) a compound having two or more oxirane groups and/or oxetane groups; and a crosslinked product employing the composition.
Abstract:
The invention provides an industrially advantageous method for the production of hydroxyalkylated polyrotaxanes. The method of producing hydroxyalkylated polyrotaxane includes reacting a polyrotaxane with a cyclic ether represented by Formula (1) in the presence of water and an organic base, wherein the polyrotaxane includes hydroxyl group-containing cyclic molecules, a linear molecule threaded through the cyclic molecules to form a clathrate, and blocking groups at both ends of the linear molecule to prevent the separation of the cyclic molecules from the linear molecule.
Abstract:
A material comprising crosslinked polyrotaxanes which exhibits desired viscoelasticity, particularly stress-strain characteristics with a wide low-stress region, in spite of being free from solvent; and a process for production of the same. The material comprises a first polyrotaxane bearing first cyclic molecules and a second polyrotaxane bearing second cyclic molecules, and the first and second polyrotaxanes are crosslinked via the first and second cyclic molecules. The material is free from solvent and exhibits a stress of 2.0 MPa or below at 50% strain.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a polyrotaxane having high durability and in particular, high hydrolysis resistance, and a method for producing said polyrotaxane. The present invention provides a polyrotaxane obtained by disposing blocking groups on both ends of a pseudopolyrotaxane so that an annular molecule cannot be displaced, said pseudopolyrotaxane being obtained by forming a clathrate by piercing the opening of the cyclic molecule with a linear molecule, said polyrotaxane being characterized in that the cyclic molecule has a substituent represented by formula I (in formula I, R1 represents a group such as —CH3 and —CH2—CH3, R2 represents H or a group such as —CH3, and n is the apparent degree of polymerization of a polyalkylene oxide chain or a derivative thereof added to the cyclic molecule, the value of n being 1.1 to 10.0).

The present invention aims to provide an industrially advantageous method of producing a powdery pseudopolyrotaxane with a high inclusion ratio. The present invention relates to a method for producing a pseudopolyrotaxane, including: an inclusion step of mixing a polyethylene glycol and a cyclodextrin in an aqueous medium to form an aqueous dispersion of pseudopolyrotaxane that contains pseudopolyrotaxane particles in which the polyethylene glycol is included in the cavities of the cyclodextrin molecules in a skewered manner; and a drying step of drying the aqueous dispersion of pseudopolyrotaxane produced in the inclusion step to obtain the pseudopolyrotaxane. In the drying step, the aqueous dispersion of pseudopolyrotaxane is sprayed and dried in a heated gas-stream.
