Generally speaking, if when being polymerisation medium with pure hydrocarbon cosolvent, because of the rate of polymerization of monovinyl aromatic hydrocarbon or conjugated diolefine slow, and both polymerisation reactivity difference is too big, the adding of available polar solvent reduces reactive difference and promotes rate of polymerization, but when adding when too many, then the arrangement of monovinyl aromatic hydrocarbon and conjugated diolefine is become the molecular structure of random sequence by cumulative block piecemeal.Therefore the usage quantity of polar solvent has certain scope.The polar solvent that the present invention also can add can be ethers, tertiary amine etc.Ethers comprises tetrahydrofuran (THF), diethyl ether, ring amyl ether, dipropyl ether, glycol dimethyl ether, ethylene glycol diethyl ether, glycol ether, dme etc.Wherein best is tetrahydrofuran (THF) and diethyl ether etc.Ternary amine comprises Trimethylamine, triethylamine, and tripropylamine etc., wherein best is triethylamine.
Reaction is normally carried out under solvent and monomer weight ratio exceed 1 situation.More suitable ratio is whole monomer gross weights of solvent 200 to 1200 weight parts/per 100 weight parts.
Step 1 polyreaction usually occur in several minutes to 8 hours during in.More suitable polyreaction is carried out in during 30min to 4 hour.As for polymerization temperature, in 0 ℃~200 ℃ scope, more suitable scope is 40 ℃~130 ℃ usually.
Polyreaction ends, and will implement second step, i.e. coupled reaction.The polymeric reactive polymer is mixed with coupler.This step must add any material to stop polyreaction or just to implement before polymer molecular chain is removed alkali metal atom, therefore, the living polymerization mixture must be at water with mixing of coupler, acid, and this type of thing such as alcohols adds just to carry out before the reactive polymer that deactivates.
In polymerization process, paradigmatic system must keep the inclusion-free state, and impurity comprises water, oxygen, carbonic acid gas, acetylene compound, halogen compounds, alcohol, organic acid and mineral acid.And monovinyl aromatic hydrocarbon and conjugated diolefine also must be through purification process before entering reactive system.Whole purge process must be at nitrogen, and argon gas carries out under the situation that the helium sealing gland exists.
Method of the present invention, be with have coupler that good coupling renders a service come with the reactive terminal base be that alkali-metal polymkeric substance carries out coupled reaction.This coupler not only can not produce the chloride corrosion pipeline in coupling efficiency height and the coupling process, can not produce alcohols, acids yet and forms the poisonous substance of active anionic polymerization.The coupling number of coupling post polymerization thing is lower than 3, is higher than 3 obviously differently with the coupling number of general starlike coupler, not only has good rubber manufacturing machinery characteristic, the heigh clarity that also has known coupling type polymer and lacked.It is well a lot of that the wear resistant that simultaneously polymkeric substance of the present invention presented also is the polymkeric substance of hub-and-spoke configuration than tradition.
Below for several embodiment so that method of the present invention, feature and advantage to be described, but be not that scope of the present invention should be as the criterion with claims in order to restriction the present invention.
