Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of at least one hydrogen peroxide in solid form for modifying the melt rheology of a thermoplastic polymer, in particular a polyolefin, in particular a polymer comprising at least one pattern derived from propylene, and more particularly polypropylene.
- the invention also relates to a process for modifying melt rheology, in particular for reducing the melt viscosity, of a thermoplastic polymer as defined above comprising at least one mixing step. at least one hydrogen peroxide in solid form and said polymer.
- the invention also relates to the thermoplastic polymer obtainable by the process as defined above.
- the present invention also relates to a premix composition
- a premix composition comprising at least one hydrogen peroxide in solid form, at least one thermoplastic polymer as defined above and optionally at least one organic peroxide intended to be used in the process according to the invention.
- the controlled preparation of different grades of polyolefins has the advantage of leading to polymers having molar masses, melt viscosities, densities or even mass distributions. specific molars that are adapted to the type of technical application envisaged without harming the quality of the product obtained.
- Such a preparation is generally carried out using conventional methods, for example an extrusion or injection molding process.
- the control of the melt rheology of the polyolefins, and in particular of their viscosity, may in particular be carried out, during the extrusion or injection molding step, by adding compounds capable of generating free radicals.
- compounds capable of generating free radicals such as organic peroxides, for example dialkyl peroxides, makes it possible to lead to controlled degradation in the molten state by breaking chains, in particular viscosity, polyolefins, especially polymers comprising at least one unit derived from propylene, such as polypropylene.
- polypropylene is a polyolefin most often obtained by polymerization of propylene monomers in the presence of catalysts during the reaction of Ziegler Natta (also called Ziegler Natta catalysis) followed by a controlled degradation step in the presence of peroxides of dialkyl added in liquid or solid form during an extrusion or injection molding step at temperatures above 180 ° C.
- the dialkyl peroxides thus generate free radicals whose function will be to cut the polypropylene chains by inducing reactions called beta-splitting.
- beta-splitting As a result of such reactions, polypropylenes having lower molecular weight will be obtained.
- the controlled degradation of polypropylene leads to products having in particular a lower molecular mass, a distribution of molecular masses narrower, a melt flow index higher (Melt Flow Index in English). , called MFI) as well as a lower melt viscosity.
- MFI Melt Flow Index
- Such degradation can be obtained by implementing in particular a visbreaking process (called visbreaking process in English).
- This visbreaking process consists in controlling the melt chain cutting of a thermoplastic polymer in a controlled manner. The polypropylene thus obtained can then be easily processed to make molded articles, films or fibers.
- the organic peroxides regularly used during the step of controlled degradation of the polyolefins in particular the polyolefins that can be obtained by Ziegler Natta catalysis, have the disadvantage of generating organic compounds. undesirable volatiles in high levels within the polyolefins obtained.
- the use of organic peroxides leads to polyolefins having melt-degraded rheological properties which have a residual content of undesirable volatile organic compounds which may be high and detrimental to the intended application.
- organic peroxides also have the drawback of being very unstable species when they are heated. Indeed, in the event of uncontrolled rise in temperature, certain organic peroxides may undergo self-accelerating exothermic decomposition and may ignite and / or explode violently, which has the consequence of complicating their transport and / or their storage to the polyolefin production units, in particular polypropylene. In other words, the use of organic peroxides requires special precautions when handling them.

- molten state (MFI) similar to those obtained with organic peroxides.
- a larger amount of aqueous hydrogen peroxide is used to achieve the same results as those obtained with organic peroxides without improving the reproducibility of the extrusion process implementing them.
- aqueous hydrogen peroxide especially in large amounts, into the extruder can give rise to extrusion defects, for example the presence of moisture bubbles or release of volatile bodies, which require the establishment of additional degassing and / or deaeration operations which makes the extrusion more tedious to implement.
- one of the objectives of the present invention is to implement one or more compounds capable of effectively modifying one or more melt rheological properties of polymers, which do not have the disadvantages mentioned above.

- the solid support used is capable of adsorbing hydrogen peroxide in liquid form while remaining dry to the touch.
- the solid material obtained is dry to the touch.
- the solid support may be organic or inorganic.
- superabsorbent polymers such as those obtained from acrylic acid sold under the name Aquakeep® and produced by SUMITOMOSEIKA CHEMICAL, may be used as organic support.
- the inorganic support can be obtained from different types of silica.
- the silicas used are preferably amorphous and may be of precipitated origin or of pyrogenic origin.
- the silica of precipitated origin is thus obtained by precipitation, in particular by reaction of a mineral acid with solutions of alkali silicates, preferably sodium silicate.

- Silica of pyrogenic origin also called fumed silica
- silica has a morphology very different from the silica of precipitated origin.
- Silica of fumed origin is a product characterized by an amorphous structure and a range of primary particle sizes.
- Such a silica is of pyrogenic origin because of its production in an oxyhydric flame. It consists of microdroplets (primary particles) of amorphous silica which melt together to form three-dimensional chain-branched aggregates (secondary particles) which can then agglomerate into tertiary particles. Individual microdroplets are essentially non-porous.
- the fumed silica is generally obtained by first carrying out a continuous flame hydrolysis step of a substance such as silica tetrachloride (SiCU) in the presence of hydrogen and oxygen in the air.
- a substance such as silica tetrachloride (SiCU)
- SiCU silica tetrachloride
- the hydrolysis of silica tetrachloride with water is carried out in a continuous flame so as to produce the silica in a few fractions of a second.
- the aerosol is then cooled before carrying out a step of separating the gaseous phase and the solid phase. After separation, the solid phase still contains significant amounts of hydrochloric acid adsorbed on the surface of the silica particles.
- a deacidification step is then carried out in order to remove the hydrochloric acid so as to obtain untreated hydrophilic fumed silica.
- the fumed silica has a high density of silano groups ls (Si-OH) free surface giving it an extremely hydrophilic character. So the The surface of the fumed silica particles is easily wettable in the presence of water.
- the primary particles of fumed silica are non-porous, when liquid addition is operated, such a liquid is not adsorbed in the silica particles (as it is the case for the precipitated silica which is porous) but remains on the surface of three-dimensional aggregates or branched secondary particles which leads to the formation of a large number of agglomerates. Even though the agglomerates are formed of individual aggregates, it can be seen that the surface morphology of the aggregates and agglomerates is sufficiently complex to retain large amounts of liquid if the latter is able to wet the surface.
- the surface of the hydrophilic fumed silica can be modified by a variety of post-treatments.
- the fumed silica can be chemically modified at the surface by chemical reaction by transforming the silano groups (Si-OH) into hydrophobic groups. In other words, the density of free silanol groups is reduced.
