Polymerization Of Vinyl Monomers
Let s see how we get from a vinyl monomer to a vinyl polymer using for an example the simplest vinyl polymer polyethylene polyethylene is made from the monomer ethylene which is also called ethene.
Polymerization of vinyl monomers. Benzoin and its derivatives are the most widely used photoinitiators for radical polymerization of vinyl monomers. Of vinyl polymerization the rate of polymerization of vinyl monomers can be reduced or almost completely inhibited by the addition of relative small amounts of certain molecules called retardersand inhibitors. For example if the monomer contains allyl hydrogen tearing off hydride ion from the monomer may be one of possible ways of initialization 14. New bio based polymers can be synthesized from naturally occurring or derived vinyl monomers by controlled living polymerization as has been developed for conventional petrochemicals.
These photoiniating systems consist of a photoinitiator such as benzophenone or thioxanthone and a coinitiator such as alcohol or amine. Lpp of polar vinyl monomers generally adopts a bimolecular activation polymerization mechanism as shown in scheme 1. That is small molecules containing carbon carbon double bonds they make up largest family of polymers. Polymerization rate are highly desired.
First in the chain initiation step the lb nucleophilically attacks the la activated monomer to generate zwitterionic intermediates. Yuetao zhang department of chemistry colorado state university fort collins colorado 80523 1872 usa fax. Vinyl polymers are polymers made from vinyl monomers. Furthermore the surface area can be tuned by using various.
The radical polymerization of vinyl monomers was performed in a tetrahedral imine linked organic cage with extrinsic porosity cc3. Type ii photoinitiators bimolecular photoinitiators. Herein high porous pops with high surface areas from aromatic vinyl monomers by using acid catalysis method is reported. This review summarizes recent advances in the controlled radical polymerization of n vinyl monomers such as n vinylcarbazole n vinylindole derivatives n vinylpyrrolidone n vinylcaprolactam n vinylformamide n vinylacetoamide derivatives n vinyl na phthalimides n vinylimidazolium salts and n vinyltriazoles.
Because of its dynamic and responsive packing structure cc3 endowed the polymerization with specific behaviors.
