Description

Method for synthesizing ultra-high molecular weight polymethyl methacrylate
Technical Field

Background
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is obtained by performing addition polymerization reaction on methyl Methacrylate Monomer (MMA), is commonly called organic glass, is an important thermoplastic organic polymer, and has the characteristics of light weight, toughness, high light transmittance, good processability and the like. The common PMMA has poor heat resistance, wear resistance and organic solvent resistance, low use temperature, easy surface roughening, low impact resistance and poor creep resistance, and can cause stress cracking under the action of long-time heavy load, thereby limiting the application range of the PMMA.
The characteristics of PMMA such as heat resistance, wear resistance and room temperature creep resistance are enhanced along with the increase of the molecular weight of PMMA, and the PMMA with ultrahigh molecular weight (the molecular weight is more than 100 ten thousand) can also keep certain mechanical strength at the high temperature of 200 ℃.

At present, the synthesis methods of the PMMA with the ultra-high molecular weight mainly comprise free radical emulsion polymerization, free radical suspension polymerization and low-temperature plasma polymerization. Suspension polymerization and emulsion polymerization can produce a large amount of waste water containing suspending agent and emulsifier in the production process, thereby bringing environmental protection problems, the post-treatment cost is high, and the polymer product has poor transparency and low purity due to the suspending agent and the emulsifier. The low-temperature plasma polymerization has the problems of unknown reaction mechanism, high-power radio frequency equipment required for production, difficult industrialization, long reaction time consumption, low production efficiency, complex structure of a polymerization product and the like.
