Polymerization Of Vinyl Acetate Using Visible

The polymerization of vinyl acetate was successfully carried out in toluene using pm i as macroinitiator in the presence of mn 2 co 10 under weak visible light at 40 c.

Polymerization of vinyl acetate using visible.

The photoinduced polymerization of vinyl acetate vac proceeded very fast even at 40 c with a catalytic amount of mn2 co 10 0 025 mol of vac or 5 0 mol of r i and completed within a few. A redox initiating system was developed in order to bypass 2 2 azobis 4 methoxy 2 4 dimethylvaleronitrile v70 as the initiator of the cobalt mediated radical polymerization cmrp of vinyl acetate vac in the presence of cobalt ii acetylacetonate co acac 2. Kinetic studies and polymerization mechanism d. The highly active versatile and photoresponsive controlled living radical polymerizations were developed using mn2 co 10 coupled with an alkyl iodide initiator r i under weak visible light.

Eventually the production of vinyl acetate based copolymer latexes in a wide range of molecular particle morphological colloidal physical and film properties can be possible for use in wide variety of applications by change in molecular structure of the comonomer copolymer composition and the emulsion polymerization variables. Johnson university of bradford bradford w. Therefore vinyl acetate runaway polymerization incidents are very serious and they occur with a high frequency. The polymerization of vinyl acetate is probably the second most frequent cause of runaway reaction accidents in the chemical industry after the phenol formaldehyde runaway reaction.

19 gois et al. Have reported the polymerization of pvac in bulk using s benzyl o ethyl dithiocarbonate as the madix agent with molecular weights of up to 30 050 g mol 1 although the monomer conversions were incomplete ranging from 68 to 83 conversion. It is indeed a problem to stock up with v70 because of needed storage at 20 c during transportation. The ethyl eosin ascorbic acid photosensitized polymerization of vinyl acetate in aqueous methanol using visible radiation has been shown to occur by a mechanism in which polymerization occurs after an induction period during which the dye colour fades completely.

The amphiphilic pm b pvac diblock copolymers with a series of molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions were synthesized successfully. Carried out the madix solution polymerization of vinyl acetate. Pemberton napier college colinton road edinburgh eh10 5dt uk and a. Yorkshire bd7 1dp uk received 11 october 1982.
