Abstract:
Copolymers I carrying functional groups and comprising a) 20-60 mol % of at least one monoethylenically unsaturated C4-C6-dicarboxylic acid or an anhydride thereof, b) 10-70 mol % of at least one oligomer of propene or of a branched 1-olefin of 4 to 10 carbon atoms, having an average molecular weight Mw of from 300 to 5000, and c) 1-50 mol % of at least one monoethylenically unsaturated compound which is copolymerizable with the monomers a) and b), a process for their preparation, oil-soluble reaction products obtainable therefrom by reaction with an amine and the use of said reaction products as additives for lubricants and fuels.
Abstract:
A process for preparing polyisobutenyl (thio)ethers by reacting a polyisobutene epoxide having at least one terminal epoxide group with itself, with other epoxides and/or with nucleophiles selected from among alcohols and thiols in the presence of a Lewis-acid compound as catalyst and/or a cationic photoinitiator with illumination is described. The side reaction of the rearrangement of the epoxide to the polyisobutenyl aldehyde is suppressed. In addition, a curable composition comprising a polyisobutene epoxide, an epoxide different therefrom and optionally a poly(thi)ol is also described.
