  • Solid-State Polymerization of 1,4-bis(hexatriynyl)benzene derivatives
    Polymer Journal, 2018
    Co-Authors: Keita Sasamura, Yoko Tatewaki, Kei Mizuguchi, Shuji Okada
    Abstract:

    Two 1,4-bis(hexatriynyl)benzene derivatives with urethane groups, i.e., 10,10′-(1,4-phenylene)bis(5,7,9-decatriynyl N -(butoxycarbonylmethyl)carbamate) 1 and its perfluorophenylene derivative 2 , were synthesized, and their Solid-State photoPolymerization was investigated. Upon UV irradiation, both of them showed excitonic absorption characteristic of polydiacetylene (PDA). In particular, 2 showed an absorption maximum at 743 nm, which was approximately 100 nm longer than that of conventional PDAs because of the effective conjugation between the polymer backbone and π-conjugated substituents. The conversion of 1 to the corresponding polymer was quite low. On the other hand, more than half of the hexatriynyl moieties of 2 were found to polymerize, indicating that most of the monomers were converted to the polymer upon prolonged UV irradiation. 10,10′-(1,4-Phenylene)bis(5,7,9-decatriynyl N -(butoxycarbonylmethyl)carbamate) 1 and its perfluorophenylene derivative 2 were synthesized. Upon UV irradiation, both of them showed excitonic absorption of polydiacetylene. In particular, 2 showed an absorption maximum at 743 nm, which was approximately 100 nm longer than that of conventional polydiacetylenes, and its Solid-State Polymerization scheme was investigated.

  • thermal Solid State Polymerization of a divalent metal salt of an unsaturated carboxylic acid and the effects of additives
    Polymer Journal, 2013
    Co-Authors: Junki Tsuchida, Shuji Okada, Yoko Tatewaki, Satoshi Inayama, Yosuke Saito, Saki Sato, Ushio Yuki, Ayaka Shindo, Chiemi Mikura, Kazuhisa Fushihara
    Abstract:

    Thermal Solid-State Polymerization of zinc diacrylate (ZDA) alone and with additives, such as diphenyl disulfide (DPDS) and thiophenol (TP) derivatives and dicumyl peroxide (DCP), was investigated. The Solid-State Polymerization of ZDA was confirmed to be non-topochemical, and the main polymer structure was found to be polyacrylate with acrylate or polyacrylate connected by Zn2+ although a part of the monomer structure was eliminated during the Polymerization. The Polymerization rates were estimated by conversion from ZDA to its polymer, which was determined gravimetrically. The qualitative order of the Polymerization rate was ZDAPolymerization of the additives. Mixing these additives in a small amount to the Solid monomers is a facile and efficient method to accelerate the Solid-State Polymerization. Zinc diacrylate (ZDA) gave the polymer as shown in the scheme by heating in the Solid State. When additives like diphenyl disulfide (DPDS), thiophenol (TP) and dicumyl peroxide (DCP) were mixed in 1/60 molar ratio to ZDA, qualitative order of the Polymerization rate was obtained to be ZDA < ZDA-DPDS(or TP) << ZDA-DPDS(or TP)-DCP < ZDA-DCP. Namely, mixing these additives to ZDA accelerated the Solid-State Polymerization.

  • Radical-initiator-Induced Solid-State Polymerization of butadiyne nanocrystals in water and their dispersion stabilization.
    Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 2011
    Co-Authors: Shuhei Kato, Takahiro Kinemuchi, Akito Masuhara, Shuji Okada, Yoko Tatewaki, Hitoshi Kasai, Hidetoshi Oikawa
    Abstract:

    : Butadiyne nanocrystals in water are usually polymerized by UV or gamma-ray irradiation to give polydiacetylene (PDA) nanocrystals. In this study, we confirmed that Solid-State Polymerization of 1,6-di(N-carbazolyl)-2,4-hexadiyne (DCHD) and 5,7-dodecadiyn-1,12-diyl bis[N-(butoxycarbonyl-methyl)carbamate] (4BCMU) could be stimulated by water-soluble radical initiators. The radical initiators used were potassium peroxodisulfate, three kinds of azo-type compounds and a redox initiator. In all cases, the Solid-State Polymerization was confirmed by color change into blue indicating that PDA modified by the radical residues at the end was formed. However, nanocrystal cohesion occurred especially when the concentration of the initiators was high or the dispersion was kept for a long time. In order to improve the dispersion stability, two kinds of surfactants, i.e., sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DTMAC), were added to the DCHD nanocrystal aqueous dispersion. As a result, when anionic SDS was added, the Solid-State Polymerization of nanocrystals proceeded without coagulation and quantitative conversion was confirmed for all initiators. Cationic DTMAC has no effect on dispersion stabilization. PDA nanocrystal surfaces in water are negatively charged in nature and electric interaction of nanocrystals with the cations results in decrease of surface charge and aggregation of nanocrystals.

  • Solid-State Polymerization of conjugated hexayne derivatives with different end groups
    Polymer Journal, 2010
    Co-Authors: Satoshi Inayama, Yoko Tatewaki, Shuji Okada
    Abstract:

    10,12,14,16,18,20-Triacontahexayne-1,30-diol and its diphenylurethane and diphenylester were synthesized, and their Solid-State Polymerization behaviors were investigated. The regular two-step Solid-State Polymerization was confirmed for the diphenylurethane derivative. Three hexayne derivatives with different end groups—that is, 10,12,14,16,18,20-triacontahexayne-1,30-diol ( 1 ) and its diphenylurethane ( 2 ) and diphenylester ( 3 )—were synthesized, and their Solid-State Polymerization behaviors were investigated. All three monomers were thermally polymerizable. Polymers from 1 and 2 showed an absorption maximum at about 730 nm, indicating that linear polydiacetylenes (PDAs) with octatetraynyl substituents were synthesized. However, broad absorption bands in the near-infrared region were only observed for 2 at 980 and 860 nm, indicating that regular Polymerization occurred in 2 to give ladder-type PDA. On the other hand, a polymer from 3 showed a visible absorption increase but no clear absorption maximum. It was estimated that intermolecular hydrogen bonding between hexayne monomers helps to form polymerizable stacks in 1 and 2 . In particular, urethane groups are more effective, and 2 showed the highest reactivity in this study with an ordered interlayer structure even after a two-step Solid-State Polymerization to give ladder-type PDA.

  • Solid State Polymerization of poly lactic acid some fundamental parameters
    Polymer Degradation and Stability, 2013
    Co-Authors: Stamatina Vouyiouka, Constantine D. Papaspyrides, Pavlos Theodoulou, Antonia Symeonidou, Rudolf Pfaendner
    Abstract:

    Abstract Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was submitted to Solid State Polymerization (SSP) in a fixed bed reactor under nitrogen flow, so as to examine technique efficiency for increasing the molecular weight and hence permitting the reduction of the melt Polymerization residence times. In order to use a suitable starting material, SSP prepolymers of low and medium molecular weight were first prepared through Solid State hydrolysis of commercial PLA grade under acidic and alkaline conditions. During these degradation runs, hydrolysis involved the random scission of ester groups in the polymer backbone, while the relevant kinetics and the resulting thermal properties were also examined. In a subsequent step, the prepolymers obtained were subjected to SSP at three temperatures, approximately 2.5–25.0 °C below their melting point. The process achieved an increase of up to 1.7 times the initial molecular weight, however, with different trends depending on the prepolymer characteristics, reaction temperature and time, as well as the pH of the hydrolysis medium. In addition to molecular weight build up, the effect of the SSP process on end product thermal properties was also investigated.

  • Nanocatalysis in Polyamide 6.6 SolidState Polymerization
    Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2010
    Co-Authors: Anastasia C. Boussia, Stamatina Vouyiouka, Maria O. Konstantakopoulou, Constantine D. Papaspyrides
    Abstract:

    Solid-State Polymerization (SSP) of a poly(hexamethyleneadipamide) (PA 6.6)/clay nanocomposite system was studied. SSP runs were performed in a fixed-bed reactor, at temperatures 160–200 °C and reaction times up to 8 h. The influence of clay presence on the PA 6.6 SSP rate constant was herewith quantified for the first time to prove significant acceleration of the SSP process. A catalysis mechanism was suggested, according to which the positive effect of clay is of a synergistic origin attributed to nucleated crystal morphology, that increased the concentration of reactive end groups in the amorphous regions, to chain extension performed by clay SiOH groups, and to thermal protection of the polyamide matrix due to the presence of the nanoparticles.

  • Polyamide Solid State Polymerization : Evaluation of pertinent kinetic models
    Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2005
    Co-Authors: Stamatina Vouyiouka, Constantine D. Papaspyrides, J. Weber, D. Marks
    Abstract:

    Nylon 6,6 resins, in the form of pellets, were Solid State polymerized in the temperature range of 160–200°C in a fixed-bed reactor under flowing nitrogen for times of 0–4 h. The kinetics of the Solid State Polymerization (SSP) of nylon 6,6 were examined by the evaluation of pertinent rate expressions and the selection of the most suitable one for describing the apparent overall process. The Flory-theory-based kinetic models were the most effective both for this study's data and for data previously published on SSP of different polyamides. Accordingly, SSP rate constants and activation energies were derived, and process parameters, such as the temperature and time, were investigated. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
