Electrocatalytic properties of manganese and cobalt polyporphine films toward oxygen reduction reaction
2018
International audience; Novel member of polymetalloporphines, namely manganese polymetalloporphine of type I (pMnP-I) obtained by ion exchange from magnesium polyporphine of type I (pMgP-I) is reported for the first time and compared to its cobalt analogue (pCoP-I). Both polymer films have been obtained via two-step procedure: demetaladon of the pMgP-I electrode film via its exposure to trifluoroacetic acid solution, resulting in formation of the metal-free polyporphine of type I (pH(2)P-I) followed by electrochemically induced incorporation of Co or Mn ions from the acetonitrile solution of cobalt and manganese perchlorates. A further oxidative transformation of pCoP-I, polymer films has l…
Modeling Heterogeneous copolymerization of fluorinated monomers in scCO2
2009
In recent years the use of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) in polymer processing and reaction has emerged as a “green” alternative to replace both environmentally hazardous organic solvents and water, whose utilization involves the production of large amount of waste streams. Moreover, scCO2 is non-toxic, inexpensive, and often exhibits intense plasticizing effect on polymers. In this work, the copolymerization of fluorinated monomers in scCO2 is explored. Batch free-radical copolymerization reactions of vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and hexafluoropropylene (HFP) have been carried out at temperature of 50 C and pressure of 400 bar using DEPDC as initiator and different amounts of stabilize…
Application of Silsesquioxanes in the Preparation of Polyolefin-Based Materials
2023
This paper is a review of studies on the use of the polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) of various structures in the synthesis of polyolefins and the modification of their properties, namely: (1) components of organometallic catalytic systems for the polymerization of olefins, (2) comonomers in the copolymerization with ethylene, and (3) fillers in composites based on polyolefins. In addition, studies on the use of new silicon compounds, i.e., siloxane–silsesquioxane resins, as fillers for composites based on polyolefins are presented. The authors dedicate this paper to Professor Bogdan Marciniec on the occasion of his jubilee.
Wpływ wybranych parametrów na efektywność katalizowanej wanadocenem kopolimeryzacji etylenu z norbornenem i właściwości otrzymanych produktów
2019
W pracy zbadano wpływ parametrów reakcji na kopolimeryzację etylenu z norbornenem wobec katalizatora wanadocenowego (Cp2VCl2) w obecności trichloroctanu etylu (ETA). Przeprowadzono serię reakcji kopolimeryzacji, zmieniając w każdej z nich jeden z parametrów reakcji: temperaturę lub ciśnienie etylenu. Następnie zbadano temperaturę zeszklenia, stopień wbudowania norbornenu i mikrostrukturę otrzymanych kopolimerów, poddając je analizie DSC oraz spektroskopii 13C NMR. Wykazano wpływ badanych parametrów na aktywność katalizatora oraz ilość i sposób wbudowania jednostek norbornenu w łańcuch polimerowy, jak również wartość temperatury zeszklenia produktu. Stwierdzono, że właściwości otrzymanego ko…
Copolymerization of Vinylidene Fluoride and Acrylic Acid in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
2010
The free-radical copolymerization of vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and acrylic acid (AA) was carried out in supercritical carbon dioxide using both precipitation and dispersion techniques in the presence of an ammonium carboxylate perfluoropolyether compound. Formation of a copolymer was confirmed by variable contact time CP MAS NMR spectroscopy. Macromolecular matrices were significantly enriched in AA with respect to the initial feed composition and we found that the nonfluorinated monomer has a much higher reactivity ratio with respect to VDF. The cumulative concentration, crystallinity, and water affinity of the synthesized copolymers could be modified changing the initial feed composition,…
Copolymerization of Ethylene with Selected Vinyl Monomers Catalyzed by Group 4 Metal and Vanadium Complexes with Multidentate Ligands: A Short Review
2021
This paper gives a short overview of homogeneous post-metallocene catalysts based on group 4 metal and vanadium complexes bearing multidentate ligands. It summarizes the catalytic behavior of those catalysts in copolymerization of ethylene with 1-olefins, with styrenic monomers and with α,ω-alkenols. The review is focused on finding correlations between the structure of a complex, its catalyst activity and comonomer incorporation ability, as well as the microstructure of the copolymer chains.
Crystal structure of 4-{2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]diazen-1-yl}-1-methylpyridinium iodide
2015
The molecular geometry of the ionic title compound, C14H17N4+·I−or DAZOP+·I−, is essentially featureless. Regarding the crystal structure, in addition to the obvious cation–anion Coulombic interactions, the packing is mostly directed by non-covalent interactions involving both ring systems, as well as the iodide anion. It consists of cationic molecules aligned along [101] and disposed in an antiparallel fashion while linked into π-bonded dimeric entities by a stacking contact involving symmetry-related phenyl rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.468 (3) Å and a slippage of 0.951 Å. The dimers are, in addition, sustained by a number of C—H...I and I...π (I...centroid = 3.876 Å) inte…
Synthesis and characterization of ethylene-1-hexene copolymers prepared by using MgCl2(THF)2-supported Ziegler-Natta catalysts
2000
Ethylene was copolymerized with 1-hexene over vanadium (VOCl3 and VCl4) and titanium (TiCl4) catalysts supported on MgCl2(THF)2 and activated with Et2AlCl. So far these catalyst systems have not been known as initiators of ethylene-1-hexene copolymerization. The vanadium catalysts were more active than the titanium catalyst and, at identical comonomer concentrations in the feed, gave rise to a greater incorporation of 1-hexene into the copolymer. Even at relatively low fractions of 1-hexene, the MgCl2(THF)2-supported catalysts affected much the copolymer properties like density, melting point and crystallinity.
Spontaneous doping and magnetic properties of polyacetylene and polypropyne synthesized in situ in Ni-exchanged mordenite and mesoporous MCM-41
2001
Upon polymerisation of acetylene and propyne inside the channels of Ni2+-exchanged mordenite and mesoporous MCM-41 spontaneous doping and formation of antiferromagnetic NiO clusters are observed to various extents. The population of polarons present in the final polymer/zeolite composite: (i) is higher for polyacetylene than for polypropyne; (ii) increases with polymerisation temperature in the range 100 to 335 °C; (iii) increases with the C content; and (iv) is higher for mordenite than for MCM-41 under the same conditions. The use of Ni(0),H+-mordenite for polymer formation enhances the polaron population of the resulting polymer by over one order of magnitude. Doped polyacetylene encapsu…
