Description

Method for synthesizing olefin functional polymer by plasma initiation
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic polymerization, and relates to a method for synthesizing an olefin functional polymer by plasma initiation.
Background
The olefin functional polymer is used as a functional high polymer material, has wide application in the aspects of engineering plastic chain extension, high-performance composite material, nylon infiltration, ink dispersion, microencapsulation, filtration membrane film formation and the like, and is greatly concerned. The molecular chain of the olefin functional polymer has a large number of active groups, and can react with various functional groups, such as hydroxyl-terminated or amino-terminated nylon products, so that the molecular weight of nylon is improved, the mechanical property is improved, and the viscosity value of nylon is regulated; in addition, the olefin functional polymer can be used for preparing microcapsules, and has good application prospects in the fields of pesticides, fragrances and medicines.
The synthetic raw materials of the olefin functional polymer mainly comprise olefin and functional monomers, and currently available polymerization methods comprise emulsion polymerization, suspension polymerization and precipitation polymerization, wherein a large amount of stabilizer is needed to be used in the former two methods, and the stabilizer is remained on polymer particles in a physical adsorption or chemical adsorption mode to influence the performance of the polymer particles; although the precipitation polymerization does not need to add a stabilizer, the concentration of a polymerization monomer in the traditional precipitation polymerization system is low, so that the polymerization efficiency is low, and the polymerization method needs to be improved; since the synthesis of polymers generally requires initiation of free radicals generated by the initiation reaction, the initiation means include photoinitiation, thermal initiation, initiator initiation, etc., initiator initiation is most commonly employed at present. In recent years, plasma initiation technology has also been attracting attention based on the characteristics of high-energy particles, and the study of polymerization initiated by plasma has been increasing, possibly being more advantageous in some reactions.
Depending on the kind of olefin or functional monomer in the kind of olefin functional polymer synthesis raw material, a corresponding synthesis process is required. CN 101235117a discloses a method for styrene/maleic anhydride copolymerization, which comprises dissolving maleic anhydride monomer, styrene, initiator organic peroxide or azo compound in medium under nitrogen protection, reacting with 60-90 deg.c for 0.25-12 h to obtain dispersion system of polymer microsphere. CN 102212166a discloses a new method for copolymerization of dicyclopentadiene and maleic anhydride, which is to add monomer and initiator into organic medium to dissolve under nitrogen protection, react for 2-12 h at 60-90 deg.c to obtain self-stable dispersion system of monodisperse microsphere of alternating copolymer, and then centrifugally separate and dry to obtain white solid of alternating copolymer of dicyclopentadiene/maleic anhydride. In the above patents, maleic anhydride is used as a functional monomer to polymerize with an olefin, but the olefin used is usually an olefin of at least C4, and is usually a liquid olefin such as a diene, a cycloolefin or an isoolefin, but the polymerization of a gaseous olefin of at most C4 is not involved, and an initiator is used to initiate the reaction.
The plasma initiated polymerization was first carried out in laboratory by Bell. A.T et al, and a series of vinyl monomers such as an aqueous alkene solution, an aqueous acrylic acid solution, methyl methacrylate, etc. were successfully polymerized, because the initiated polymerization is mainly based on free radicals generated by the interaction of plasma and monomers, and no external free radical initiator is added, the polymer is purer, and the molecular weight of the polymer is more than 10, which is characterized in that 7 The advent of this method has led to tremendous research enthusiasm.
CN 101531730a discloses a method for preparing styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer by plasma initiation, which comprises ionizing air into plasma under normal pressure, introducing the plasma into acetone solution of styrene monomer and maleic anhydride for polymerization, wherein the air flow is 20-80 ml/min, the discharge time is 10-30 min, adding absolute ethanol precipitant after polymerization for 1-2 h to terminate the reaction, repeatedly washing with absolute ethanol, and vacuum drying to obtain copolymer; although the reaction is initiated by plasma, the polymerization of liquid olefins is still not involved in the polymerization of C4 or less gaseous olefins with functional monomers.
In summary, for the synthesis of olefin functional polymers, especially the polymerization of lower olefins with carbon numbers below C4 and functional monomers, a proper initiation mode and synthesis process are also required to be selected according to the characteristics of the raw materials, so as to improve the production efficiency, simplify the separation process, and reduce the raw materials and process costs.
