Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method of forming graft copolymers by attaching pre-polymerised side chains to unsaturated natural or synthetic rubber backbone and to the resulting graft copolymers.
  • a major use for such graft copolymers is thermoplastic rubbers; but other uses also are envisaged, such as for example solvent-based or hot-melt adhesives.
  • thermoplastic elastomers More recently there has been rapidly growing commercial interest in a general class of materials known as thermoplastic elastomers. These materials have a range of physical properties varying from the truly elastomeric behaviour of the Kraton styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymers (Shell Chemical Co.) to the flexible plastic properties of the Hytrel (Trade Mark) polyester-polyether block systems (E.I. DuPont de Nemours). The range of types is continually increasing and their popularity stems largely from the typical combinations of physical properties which are available from directly moulded products without the need for chemical crosslinking and its associated complex mixing and curing cycles.
  • This invention provides a method of forming a graft copolymer, which method comprises providing a reaction mixture of an ethylenically highly unsaturated natural or synthetic rubber in the solid state with a prepolymer having one azodicarboxylate end group reactive towards ethylenically unsaturated groups of the rubber, and maintaining the mixture at an elevated temperature at least equal to the glass transition temperature of the prepolymer but below the decomposition temperature of the rubber with intimate blending of the reactants, whereby the pre-polymer molecules react with and become attached to the rubber molecule backbone.
  • An 'ene' reactive group in the form of an azodicarboxylate function can be constructed on the end of a pre-polymer chain as follows: where Q is the pre-polymer and R is C 1 to C 6 alkyl.
  • the pre-polymer apart from its functional end group, does not take part in the reaction. It should be substantially inert to the end group and to the rubber with which it is to be heated. Suitable materials are poly (vinyl aromatic monomers) such as polystyrene, poly (p-t-butylstyrene) or poly ( ⁇ -methylstyrene).
  • the invention also provides graft co-polymers prepared as described above having! a backbone derived from an ethylenically unsaturated natural or synthetic rubber and side-chains of a poly-(vinyl aromatic monomer) and having the properties:-
  • Suitable rubbers include styrene-butadiene copolymers, acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymers, polyisoprene, polybutadiene, and polychloroprene.
  • the reaction is not effective with materials having a saturated carbon backbone, nor even with hydrocarbon rubbers of low unsaturation level.
  • the molecular weight of the rubber is not critical. Natural and unsaturated synthetic rubbers generally have a molecular weight of from 70,000 to 300,000 after solid state compounding such as is required for performing the method of this invention.
  • the glass transition temperature of the hard component is important, for the rubbery properties are predominant below that glass transition temperature and the plastic properties above it.
  • the prepolymer In the preparation of materials that are to be used as thermoplastic rubbers at ambient temperature, it is accordingly necessary that the prepolymer should have a glass transition temperature above ambient and preferably of at least 60°C.
  • An upper limit of about 220°C is placed on the glass transition temperature by the fact that the reaction temperature of the pre-polymer with the rubber has to be at least as high as the glass transition temperature and most unsaturated rubbers begin to decompose around 200-220°C.
  • the molecular weight range of the polystyrene gives a range of glass transition temperatures from 70 to 95°C.
  • the number average molecular weight of the pre-polymer should preferably be in the range 500-50,000, particularly 3,000-15,000. Molecular weights in this range are sufficiently high to achieve the advantageous properties resulting from phase separation in the graft copolymer and no further advantage is gained by using polystyrene having a molecular weight above 20,000.
  • Polystyrene may be conveniently prepared in a narrow molecular weight range by anionic polymerisation; this technique is much easier to use at lower pre-polymer molecular weights, because the viscosity of the system increases very much as the molecular weight rises. If the polystyrene is prepared by emulsion polymerisation, viscosity considerations do not arise to the same extent. But at molecular weights above 20,000, it becomes progressively more difficult to purify and characterise the product, and so more difficult to control the properties of the graft copolymer.
  • thermoplastic rubbers it is necessary that the prepolymer should be incompatible with the rubber. Compatibility for this purpose may be determined by forming an intimate blend of the two polymers; if the blend shows two separate glass transition temperatures, then the two polymers are incompatible.
  • the graft copolymer is not intended for use as a thermoplastic rubber, then it is not essential that the pre-polymer be incompatible with the backbone-forming rubber, nor is it essential that the pre-polymer have a glass transition temperature above 60°C.
  • the method by which the functionalised pre-polymer is prepared is not critical to this invention.
  • Polystyrene carrying a hydroxyl group at one end only of each molecular chain can be conveniently prepared by anionic polymerisation of styrene in solution using n-butyl lithium in the presence of tetramethyl ethylene-diamine (TMEDA) as an initiating system and ethylene oxide followed by acid for chain termination.
  • TEDA tetramethyl ethylene-diamine
  • Any other appropriate procedure for producing polymers with one end only of each chain carrying a hydroxyl group or other group forming part of the synthetic schemes outlined above may be used e.g. emulsion polymerisation in the presence of a chain transfer agent carrying the appropriate functional group.
  • the reaction mixture preferably contains from 40-90% by weight of the rubber and correspondingly from 60-10% by weight of the pre-polymer, on the weight of the two reactants. While it is perfectly possible to make graft copolymers containing more than 60% by weight of the pre- polymer side chains, the properties of such products may not differ significantly from those of materials obtained by more accessible routes. Graft copolymers containing less than 10% by weight of side- 'chains have properties not very different from those of the unmodified rubber. We prefer to use reaction mixes containing from 15-55%, particularly from 25-45%, by weight of the pre-polymer. It is possible, though not necessary, to include other materials in the initial reaction mixture.
  • Very intimate mixing of the reactants during at least a part of the reaction is essential. If the reactants are blended under low shear conditions near ambient temperature and then heated under static conditions efficient grafting does not take place. Mixing under high shear conditions should be continued for at least 30% and preferably at least 60% of the reaction. Provided the reaction has been allowed to proceed under high shear conditions for part of the reaction time subsequent high temperature handling, e.g. compression moulding, injection moulding or extrusion, can increase the extent of the reaction.
  • high temperature handling e.g. compression moulding, injection moulding or extrusion
  • the grafting reaction takes place in the type of internal mixing machine normally used for compounding of rubber prior to vulcanization.
  • the mixing ability of the Hampden-Shawbury Torque Rheometer which consists of a pair of contra-rotating paddles within a heated cavity, the paddles being driven by an electric motor mounted in a torque- sensitive mounting.
  • an internal mixer such as a Banbury mixer is suitable.
  • the temperature conditions of mixing are such that the initial cavity temperature is approxi- matety equal to or in excess of the glass transition temperature of the prepolymer.
  • the work expended on mixing results in a subsequent rise in temperature, the amount of temperature rise depending to some extent on the composition of the mixture and on mixing severity.
  • the severity of mixing is not readily defined without specific reference to the particular machine being used. In general, the mixing severity is comparable to that required to give carbon black reinforcement in conventional rubber mixing. Unnecessarily high mixing severity can lead to a decrease in tensile strength and modulus in the product.
  • the preferred time of mixing is such as to result in substantially complete reaction of the functional groups of the pre-polymer. Mixing times of 2-30, preferably 5-20, minutes are generally sufficient. Disappearance of azo functional groups can, in many cases, be assessed by infra-red spectroscopic measurements on thin pressed films.
  • the azodicarboxylate group has a characteristic carbonyl absorption at 1785 cm- 1 which disappears on reaction.
  • the grafting efficiency can be measured by gel permeation chromatography, whereby prepolymer which has become chemically bound to the rubber backbone can be distinguished from prepolymer which has not reacted.
  • the reaction efficiency depends, not only on the temperature and mixing conditions, but also on the impurities present in the reactants. Synthetic cis-polyisoprene can be provided in a relatively clean state, and can accordingly be caused to react with the pre-polymer at high efficiency.
  • the reaction with natural rubber is generally somewhat less efficient. Reaction efficiencies of from 40 to 100% are typical, based on the azodicarboxylate contents of the prepolymers. Because of cumulative inefficiencies in the synthetic procedures, the prepolymer does not have a functional group at the end of every chain and there is always a proportion of the prepolymer sample which is incapable of chemical combination with the rubber backbone.
  • the products of this invention have properties which make them valuable for use, either as such or compounded with fillers, stabilisers, pigments etc., as thermoplastic rubbers.
  • the products are useful without vulcanization because the pre-polymer side chain domains act as crosslinks and filler particles. They may be used for example as hot melt adhesives, solution adhesives, or for injection moulding, compression moulding or extrusion.
  • the use of stable prepolymers which can be isolated and characterised makes it very easy to control the reaction with the rubber so as to obtain desired properties in the graft copolymers.
  • Natural rubber, SMR5L (19.5 g), and polystyrene of number average molecular weight (Mn) 3200 having 79% of the polymer chains terminated with azodicarboxylate functional groups (10.5 g) were added to a small internal mixer heated to 90°C. Mixing was carried out at 150 r.p.m. for 10 min. to give a final mix temperature of 140°C. As the reaction proceeded the initially opaque reaction mixture gradually became transparent. A sample of the product (5.6 g) was pressed at 150°C for approximately 5 sec. to give a sheet approximately 0.5 mm thick. The sheet was cut into pieces and the sample again pressed into a coherent sheet under the same conditions.

  • Cariflex IR305 synthetic polyisoprene was mixed with polystyrene of Mn 8200 having no terminal azodicarboxylate end group, under the conditions described for Example 1.
  • the polystyrene content of the mix was 40% by weight.
  • the product was opaque and a compression moulded sheet had a tensile strength of ⁇ 0.5 MPa. This example demonstrates that a simple blend of polystyrene and rubber is a very weak material, even when the blend is prepared under conditions of high shear.
  • Cariflex IR305 synthetic polyisoprene was blended with polystyrene of Mn 8200, having 72% of the polymer chains terminated with azodicarboxylate functional groups, on a two-roll mill at 50°C.
  • the polystyrene content of the mix was 40% by weight.
  • a sample of the mix was pressed at 150°C to give a sheet 0.5 mm thick and was maintained at 150°C for 15 min. The final sheet was opaque and had a tensile strength of ⁇ 0.5 MPa. This example demonstrates that static heating of a mix prepared under low shear conditions is not sufficient to achieve grafting and develop strength in the material.
  • Example 13 A series of mixes were prepared as in Example 13 with mixing times of 4, 6, 8 and 10 min. The polystyrene content of the mixes was 40% by weight. Samples of the mixes were analysed for grafting efficiency by gel permeation chromatography then sheets were prepared by compression moulding as described in Example 1. Samples of the moulded sheets were analysed for grafting efficiency and the sheets were tested for modulus and tensile strength under the standard conditions. The results are summarised in Table XVII. This example demonstrates that, provided the grafting reaction is initiated and allowed to proceed to some extent under high shear conditions, the remainder of the reaction can be completed by a subsequent high-temperature handling step, e.g. by compression moulding.
  • Example 13 A series of mixes were prepared as in Example 13 at mixing speeds of 75, 105 and 150 r.p.m. The polystyrene content of the mixes was 40% by weight. Samples of the mixes were analysed for grafting efficiency by gel permeation chromatography then sheets were prepared by compression moulding as described in Example 1. Samples of the moulded sheets were analysed for grafting efficiency and the sheets were tested for modulus and tensile strength under the standard conditions. The results are summarised in Table XVIII. This example demonstrates that a decrease in the severity of mixing results in a decrease in grafting efficiency at a given mixing time but provided some degree of grafting has been initiated the grafting reaction can proceed further during subsequent high temperature handling, e.g. during compression moulding.
