EVA Copolymer Based Nanocomposites
2002
Nanocomposites are a new class of polymer material with an ultrafine phase dispersion of the order of a few nanometers that shows very interesting properties often very different from those of conventional filled polymers. In this work the mechanical and optical properties of Poly-[ethylene-co-(vinyl acetate)] (EVA copolymer) based nanocomposites have been investigated to evaluate its possible use in several applications. For example, films for covering greenhouse effect. Mechanical properties, and the rigidity in particular, are, on the contrary, quite low. Nanocomposites should avoid this shortcoming if optical properties and processability are not unfavorably effected. EVA copolymer base…
Ethylene-vinyl Acetate Thermoplastic Copolymers Filled with Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes: Effect of Hydrothermal Ageing on Mechanical, Thermal, and Ele…
2013
A range of properties of two commercial thermoplastic ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers, Elvax 420 and Elvax 450, neat and as melt-mixed composite filled with 15 wt.-% of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), are studied in the “as produced” state and after hydrothermal ageing. Addition of MWCNTs into the neat copolymers introduces the functionality of electrical conductivity and significantly improves their mechanical properties, while thermal characteristics are slightly affected by the presence of carbon nanotubes. A remarkable increase of the elastic modulus (150%) and stress at failure (50%) in stress–strain experiments as well as creep resistance (40%) of the nanocomposites in c…
Branched polymers starting from ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers
1995
Abstract Polyethylene-graft-poly-2-phenyl-2-oxazoline, polyethylene-graft-poly-2-methyl-2-oxazoline and polyethylenegraft-poly(ethylene oxide) were prepared using poly(ethylene-co-vinyl chloroformate) as macroinitiator or polyfunctional precursor. The vinyl acetate groups of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer were hydrolyzed, the corresponding alcohol functions were converted into chloroformate, which in turn was used for grafting of oxazolines. Comb-like polymers with hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) grafts with definite length were synthesized as well. The resulting graft copolymers were characterized by GPC, IR, and 1 H-NMR spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry.
Gelchromatographie. 1. Mitt. Trennung von oligomeren
1966
Vernetzte Polymere werden hergestellt und ihre Eignung zur gelchromatographischen Trennung von Gemischen von Oligomeren gepruft; im einzelnen wurden untersucht: mit Isocyanaten modifiziertes Sephadex; Polymethyl-und Polybutylmethacrylat, vernetzt mit Glykoldimethacrylat bzw. mit Polyathylenoxid-dimethacrylat; Polyvinylacetat, vernetzt mit n-Butandioldivinylather; Polystrol, vernetzt mit Divinylbenzol; ferner Silicagel. Der Einflus der Molekulgestalt auf das Elutionsvolumen wurde gepruft. Die Elutionsvolumina von p-Oligophenylenen, die eine stabchenformige Molekulgestalt besitzen, sind groser als die von Oligourethanen gleichen Molekulargewichts; o- und m-gewinkelte Oligophenylene zeigen geg…
Über die temperaturabhängigkeit einiger übertragungskonstanten der radikalischen polymerisation von vinylacetat über die verzweigung des polyvinylace…
1964
Die Aktivierungsenergie der Ubertragungsreaktion zwischen wachsendem Polyvinylacetat und Vinylacetat bzw. Athylacetat wird aus kinetischen Messungen im Temperaturbereich von 20–60°C ermittelt. Es ergeben sich 3,15 bzw. 3,45 kcal/Mol. Hieraus kann abgeleitet werden, das die relative Ubertragungsreaktion zwischen radikalisch wachsendem und „totem” Polyvinylacetat der Gleichung log Cp = −;1,54–723/T gehorcht. Die relative Geschwindigkeitskonstante der Endgruppenverzweigung ist kurzlich von D. J. STEIN(4) bestimmt worden und kann als unabhangig von der Temperatur angesehen werden. Damit ist es moglich, die Gesamtverzweigung des Polyvinylacetats als Funktion der Temperatur und des Umsatzes zu be…
Darstellung von block- und pfropf-copolymeren des trioxane. 25. Mitt. Über polyoxymethylene
1965
Die kationische Polymerisation von Trioxan wird durch makromolekulare Verbindungen mit reaktionsfahigen COC-Gruppen wie Polyvinylacetat (PVA), Polyathylenterephthalat (PET), Poly-1,3-dioxolan oder Polyvinylbultyral (PVB) ubertragen. Dabei entstehen je nach der Art des makromolekularen Ubertragers Pfropf-Copolymere, Block-Copolymere oder vernetzte Copolymere. Die Produkte sind uberwiegend thermisch stabil. Bei der kationischen Polymerisation von Trioxan mus auch eine Ubertragung an den Acetalgruppen des Polyoxymethylens erwartet werden. Polymeric compounds with reactive COC groups such as polyvinyl acetate (PVA), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), poly-1,3-dioxolane or polyvinyl butyral (PVB)…
Lipase-catalyzed resolution of β-hydroxy selenides
2006
Abstract Eleven β-hydroxy selenides were kinetically resolved using an immobilized lipase (Amano PS-C II) in toluene in the presence of vinyl acetate at 30 °C. This approach provided, in several cases, both enantiomers in high enantiomeric excess. The role of the size of substituents and the behaviour of cyclic β-hydroxy selenides is also discussed. Enantiopure β-hydroxy selenides are useful building blocks. As an application of this chemistry, enantiopure (1 S ,2 R )-indene oxide was obtained in one step from the proper enantiopure β-hydroxy selenide.
Reactive Compatibilization of PBT/EVA Blends with an Ethylene-Acrylic Acid Copolymer and a Low Molar Mass Bis-Oxazoline
2004
Polyesters and polyolefins form highly incompatible blends with poor properties and gross morphology that hinder any practical applications. In this work, the possibility to compatibilize an incompatible blend of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) with ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) by adding a bis-oxazoline compound, 2,2'-(1,3-phenylene)-bis(2-oxazoline) (PBO), and an ethylene acrylic acid copolymer (EAA) as compatibilizer precursors has been studied. The results indicate that the binary uncompatibilized blends show poor mechanical properties and a bad morphology with scarce adhesion between the phases. The situation is only slightly improved when the EAA is added while the best performance …
