Definitions

  • the invention relates to polyarylene sulfides, in particular polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), with a narrow molar mass distribution and a process for their preparation.
  • PPS polyphenylene sulfide
  • PPS is produced with a broad molecular weight distribution of the polymers. It contains undesirably large amounts of low molecular weight impurities and oligomers and, due to the presence of molecules of different sizes, is polydisperse.
  • High molecular weight PPS with large M n and a high polydispersity value D M w / M n offers the guarantee of good mechanical properties, but is extremely difficult to process due to its extremely high melt viscosity. It may have to be processed at temperatures high enough to damage the polymer. Polyarylene sulfides with high molar masses and simultaneously low polydispersity D are therefore of interest for technical applications.
  • EP-A-0527055 describes the production of high molecular weight polyarylene sulfide with a narrow molar mass distribution by ring-opening polymerization of cyclic arylene sulfide oligomers.
  • the cyclic oligomers can only be produced with a low yield.
  • Halogenated phenols or thiophenols and metal compounds (Lewis acids) are used as catalysts for the polymerization, which lead to impurities (metal ions, chlorinated benzene derivatives) in the polymer. It is not disclosed how polyarylene sulfides with a Polydispersity below a value of 2 can be produced.
  • EP-A-304792 describes the production of PPS with a narrow molecular weight distribution by extractive separation of oligomers from PPS with a broader molecular weight distribution. The extraction reduces the polydispersity of the PPS from 3.7 to 1.9.
  • EP-A-379014 describes a PPS with a polydispersity D of 2 to 5.
  • the narrow molar mass distribution is achieved by washing the polymer with polar organic solvents at temperatures from 100 to 200 ° C.
  • the object was to obtain polyarylene sulfides which are simple to prepare and are superior to the prior art.
  • the invention relates to polyarylene sulfides with a narrow molar mass distribution, the value of the absolute polydispersity less than or equal to 1.8 being now preferably in the range from 1.3 to 1.8.
  • the present invention has made it possible to produce polyarylene sulfides with a narrow molar mass distribution from readily available starting materials in high yield without oligomers or low molecular weight constituents being present in the reaction product and having to be separated off.
  • the polymers have sufficiently large molecular weights to be suitable for industrial applications.
  • the absolute polydispersity of a polymer is obtained when M w and M n are measured using absolute molar mass determination methods (eg thermal field flow fractionation (FFF) in combination with a light scattering detector).
  • FFF thermal field flow fractionation
  • GPC provides relative polydispersities using polystyrene calibration.
  • Another object of the invention is a process for the preparation of said polyarylene sulfides.
  • the arylene constituents of the arylene sulfide units contain mono- or polynuclear aromatics or linked aromatics.
  • the aromatics can also contain heteroatoms.
  • Such aromatics, which can be substituted or unsubstituted, are, for example, benzene, pyridine, biphenyl, naphthalene or phenanthrene.
  • Substituents are, for example, C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, C 1 -C 6 -alkoxy, carboxyl, amino and sulfonic acid groups.
  • Linked aromatics are, for example, biphenyl or aromatics linked by ether bridges (arylene ether).
  • the preferred polyarylene sulfide is polyphenylene sulfide, in particular linear polyphenylene sulfide.
  • the polyarylene sulfides according to the invention generally have a molar mass M n in the range from 2000 to 200000 g / mol, preferably 5000 to 50,000 g / mol.
  • the polyarylene sulfides have a content of organic, low molecular weight impurities (organic compounds with M w less than 500 g / mol) of less than 500 ppm together.
  • the polyarylene sulfides according to the invention have a cumulative content of phenol, chlorophenol, thiophenol, chlorothiophenol, aniline and chlorine and / or methyl-substituted anilines less than 200 ppm.
  • polyarylene sulfides are pure white and practically do not change color under thermo-oxidative conditions. For example, storing the polyarylene sulfides at 200 ° C. in air for a period of 24 hours does not lead to any discernible discoloration.
  • the polyarylene sulfides are preferably linear.
  • prepolymer comprises halogen-terminated oligomers or polymers which contain arylene sulfide units. These products usually have a molar mass, expressed as a number average molar mass M n , in the range from 700 to 21000 g / mol, preferably 3000 to 10000 g / mol. They can be prepared by reacting a sulfur compound, in particular inorganic sulfides, with an excess, generally 5 to 200% by weight, preferably 10 to 100% by weight, of dihalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons.
  • the prepolymers generally have a halogen content of organically bound halogen in the range of more than 0.1% by weight, preferably 0.3 to 10% by weight and in particular 0.5 to 5% by weight, depending on the molecular weight.
  • halogen-terminated oligomers or polymers is experimentally proven by the number average of their molecular weight and the halogen content and by their 1 H-NMR spectra.
  • Suitable halogen end groups are the halogens fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, preferably chlorine and bromine, in particular chlorine.
  • Suitable dihalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons include dihalobenzenes such as o-, m- and p-dichlorobenzene, substituted dihalobenzenes such as 2,5-dichlorotoluene, 3,5-dichlorobenzoic acid or 2,5- Dichlorobenzenesulfonic acid (or its salts).
  • dihalonaphthalenes such as 1,4-dibromonaphthalene or dihalodiphenyl ether such as 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl ether can also be used.
  • Mixtures of dihalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons can also be used in the same way in order to obtain copolymers. It is also possible to prepare substituted prepolymers by using substituted dihaloaryl compounds (for example 2,5-dichlorotoluene).
  • Inorganic sulfides of alkali and alkaline earth metals such as lithium sulfide, potassium sulfide, calcium sulfide and preferably sodium sulfide, are suitable as sulfur compounds for the preparation of the prepolymers.
  • the salts can be added as such or generated in situ.
  • B. the preferred sodium sulfide from sodium hydrogen sulfide and sodium hydroxide.
  • the sulfides can also be used with water of crystallization. It has been shown that about 1 mol of water per mol of sulfide is advantageous for the preparation of the prepolymers.
  • the sulfur compounds are also suitable for converting the prepolymers into higher molecular weight polymers.
  • the hydrate content is typically around 9 mol water per mol sulfide.
  • Dipolar aprotic amide-type solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N-methylcaprolactam or N-alkylated pyrrolidones or mixtures thereof are suitable as solvents both for the preparation of the prepolymers and for their conversion into polymers with a higher molecular weight.
  • N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP) is particularly preferred.
  • the halogen-terminated prepolymers sodium sulfide is reacted with excess p-dichlorobenzene in NMP up to about 80 to 95%.
  • the prepolymer is filtered off together with the sodium chloride and the salt is removed by dissolving in water.
  • the prepolymer is then dried at 90 ° C.
  • the reaction takes place in closed vessels (autoclaves), preferably a titanium reactor.
  • the prepolymer preferably with a narrow molar mass distribution, is dissolved in NMP under pressure at temperatures of 230 ° C. and reacted with sodium sulfide.
  • the concentration of the prepolymer in the solvent is advantageously as high as possible.
  • the amount of sodium sulfide added determines the halogen content, ie the molecular weight of the prepolymer. If the molar mass is plotted as a function of the mass ratio of sodium sulfide / prepolymer, the result is a graph with a pronounced maximum at a ratio of sodium sulfide / prepolymer, which satisfies the following formula:
  • m (Na 2 S) mass of the added sodium sulfide (anhydrous)
  • m (PP) mass of the prepolymer used
  • the reaction temperatures are generally 220 to 270 ° C, preferably 230 to 260 ° C and the reaction times are 30 min to 5 h, preferably 1 to 3 h.
  • the polymer is in the form of an almost clear, viscous solution, from which it crystallizes on cooling. It can be easily isolated by simple filtration. By washing with a little NMP it can be freed from mother liquor residues. After washing with warm water, the polymer is dried.
  • the melting points of the polyphenylene sulfides obtained in this way are in the range from 270 ° C. to 305 ° C., typically 280 to 295 ° C.
  • the melt viscosity is in the range of 5000 to 500000 mPas (centiPoise), typically 50,000 to 250,000 mPas (centiPoise).
  • the melt viscosity is stable without additives: At 300 ° C it changes by less than 10% over a period of 1 h.
  • the polyphenylene sulfides can be processed into moldings by melt extrusion. Films and fibers with good mechanical properties can also be produced.
  • the polymer must be dissolved.
  • chloronaphthalene at a high temperature (220 ° C) is suitable.
  • the polymer can also be converted into a soluble form by a polymer-analogous reaction. This is done by selective and mild oxidation of the polymer to polyphenylene sulfoxide (PPSO).
  • PPSO polyphenylene sulfoxide
  • two ways can be labeled: the complete oxidation to PPSO or the partial oxidation of PPS to polyphenylene sulfide sulfoxide (PPSO x ).
  • nitric acid As the oxidizing agent, the polymer is dissolved at room temperature in 85% (weight percent) nitric acid with the development of nitrous gases and the PPSO formed is precipitated in water.
