Abstract
A process for polymerizing unsaturated monomers is disclosed. The process comprises polymerizing, in the presence of a late transition metal catalyst (LTMC), a variety of unsaturated monomers which are traditionally, some of which are exclusively, made by free radical polymerizations. The LTMC polymerization provides the polymer with improved properties such as no free radical residue and narrow molecular weight distribution.
Description
POLYMERIZATION OF SINGLE BATTERIES INSATURAPOS WITH LTMC
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to polymerization of unsaturated monomers. More particularly, the invention relates to the polymerization of unsaturated monomers with late transition metal catalysts (LTMC).
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The chain polymerization of unsaturated monomers can be divided into free radical, ionic, and coordination polymerizations. The ionic polymerization includes anionic and cationic polymerizations. Cationic polymerization is usually initiated by means of Lewis acids, such as BF3. Polyisobutylene rubber is the important polymer commercially made by cationic polymerization. The anionic polymerization is usually initiated by alkyl trio such as n-BuLi. Many anionic polymerizations lack any termination reaction, and therefore are called "living" polymerization. The living anionic polymerization has led to the creation of thermoplastic elastomers such as SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymers). Coordination polymerization includes the Ziegler-Natta polymerization and the metallocene polymerization in a single site. The Ziegler-Natta polymerization is carried out with zirconium or titanium salts, such as TiCl 4, ZrCl 4 > and VCI4, as catalysts, and aluminum and alkyl compounds, such as trimethyl aluminum, as co-catalysts. The metallocene catalyst was discovered by Kaminski at the beginning of the 1980s (see U.S. Patent Nos. 4,404,344 and 4,431,788). The metallocene catalyst comprises a transition metal complex having one or more cyclopentadienyl ligands (Cp). Unlike the Ziegler-Natta catalysts, which have multiple active polymerization sites, the metallocene catalysts have a single polymerization site, and are therefore called "single-site" catalysts. Many non-metallocene single-site catalysts have also been developed in the past decade. Among the chain polymerizations, polymerization by free radical is the most widely used in the polymer industry. Commonly used free radical initiators include peroxides, azo compounds, and persulfates. Unlike ionic initiators or coordination catalysts, which require restricted conditions such as reaction systems free of moisture and impurities, free-radical polymerization can tolerate functional monomers such as hydroxyl, carboxyl and amino monomers. Thus, free radical polymerizations are used exclusively to make acrylic hydroxyl resins, polyacrylic acid, olefin-acrylic copolymers, and many other functional polymers. Since the late 1990s, catalysts for the polymerization of olefins incorporating late transition metals (especially iron, nickel or cobalt) and bulky α-diimino ligands (or "bis (imines)") have been investigated. These late transition metal catalysts (LTMC) are of interest because, unlike the early transition metal metallocenes or Ziegler catalysts, the LTMC may incorporate alkyl acrylate co-monomers in polyolefins. See U.S. Patent Nos. 5,866,663 and 5,955,555. However, the LTMC is considered to be a coordination catalyst, and therefore the study of the LTMC has been limited to olefin-related polymerizations. No prior art describes the use of LTMC to make acrylic hydroxyl resins, styrene-allyl alcohol copolymers, and many other important functional polymers. No previous act describes the use of LTMC for the polymerization of unsaturated monomers in the absence of olefins. Compared to free radical polymerization, LTMC have great potential to adjust to the critical properties of polymers: molecular weight, crystallinity or melting point, and poly dispersion. Therefore, LTMCs can provide better product quality and production consistency. Also, LTMCs do not require high temperature and high pressure for polymerization. This avoids the use of explosive peroxides or azo compounds. Thus, polymerization with LTMC can provide a more cost-effective alternative to existing technology with free radicals. In summary, it is obviously important to explore the use of LTMC for the polymerization of unsaturated monomers that have been traditionally polymerized, and some exclusively, by free radical polymerizations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The process of the invention contains unsaturated monomers in the presence of a late transition metal catalyst (LTMC). The LTMC contains a late transition metal complex of group 8-10 and an activator. By "complex" we mean compounds that contain a group of metals 8-10 and at least one stable ligand for polymerization, which remains attached to the metal during the course of the polymerization process. the process includes polymerization of one of the groups of monomers (a) through (f): (a) a vinyl monomer selected from the group consisting of vinyl aromatics, vinyl ethers, vinyl esters, and vinyl halides; (b) a vinyl monomer selected from the group consisting of vinyl ethers, vinyl esters, and vinyl halides, and at least one olefin; (c) a hydroxy functional monomer selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkyl acrylates, hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, allyl alcohols, and alkoxylated allylic alcohols, and at least one alkyl or aryl acrylate, or at least one alkyl or methacrylate aril; (d) a hydroxy functional monomer selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkyl acrylates, hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, allyl alcohols, and alkoxylated allyl alcohols, at least one alkyl or aryl acrylate or at least one alkyl or aryl methacrylate, and at least one olefin; (e) a hydroxy functional monomer selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkyl acrylates, hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, allyl alcohols, and alkoxylated allyl alcohols, and at least one aromatic vinyl monomer; or (f) a hydroxy functional monomer selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkyl acrylates, hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, allyl alcohols, and alkoxylated allyl alcohols, at least one vinyl aromatic monomer, and at least one olefin.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The process of the invention is to polymerize unsaturated monomers with a late transition metal catalyst (LTMC). The LTMC contains a complex of late transition metals of group 8-10 and an activator. The LTMCs include those that are known in the art. Late transition metal complexes have the general structure:
LM (X) n
M is a late transition metal of group 8-10.
Preferably, the M is selected from the group consisting of Ni, Co and Fe. More preferably, the M is Ni or Fe. Much more preferably, the M is Fe. The L is a stable ligand in the polymerization. By "stable ligand in the polymerization" we mean that the ligand remains attached to the metal during the course of the polymerization process. Preferably, the L is an isoindoline or bis (imine). Suitable ligands L also include those mentioned in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,714,556 and 6,620,759. X is a labile ligand. By "labile ligand" we mean that the ligand is easily displaceable during polymerization. Preferably, L is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and halides, and n the amount of ligands X, is greater than or equal to 1. Suitable isoindoline ligands include those presented by the copending patent application together with this, number 09 / 947,745, presented on September 6,
2001. Preferably, the isoindoline ligands have the general structure:
When a late transition metal complex is being formed, the hydrogen of the N-H group can be removed to form an ionic bond between the nitrogen and the late transition metal. Optionally, the hydrogen atoms of the aromatic ring of the above structure are independently replaced. Suitable substitute groups in the ring include alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, alkylaryl, silyl, halogen, alkoxy, aryloxy, siloxy, nitro, dialkylamino, diarylamino groups, and the like. A is an aryl or heteroaryl group. When A is aryl, it is preferably substituted with phenyl or with alkyl, such as 4-methylphenyl or 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl (2-mesityl). When A is heteroaryl, it is preferably 2-pyridyl, 2-pyrimidinyl, 4-pyrimidinyl, 2-pyrazinyl, 2-imidazolyl, 2-thiazolyl, or 2-oxazolyl. The aryl and heteroaryl groups can be fused with other rings, such as a 2-naphthyl, 2-benzothiazolyl or 2-benzimidazolyl group. A few examples of isoindolines appear below:
Bis (imine) ligands include those shown in U.S. Patent No. 5,866,663. Suitable bis (imine) ligands include those having the general structure:

The invention includes a process for polymerizing an olefin and a vinyl monomer selected from the group consisting of vinyl ethers, vinyl ethers, vinyl halides, the like and mixtures thereof. Suitable vinyl ethers, vinyl esters and vinyl halides are described above. Suitable olefins include α-olefins, cyclic olefins, and mixtures thereof. Preferred are α-olefins of 2 to 10 carbon atoms, ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 1-pentene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, and mixtures thereof, are particularly preferred. Ethylene and propylene are most preferred. The invention includes a process for polymerizing a hydroxy functional monomer selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkyl acrylates, hydroxyalkyl methacrylate, allyl alcohols, alkoxylated allyl alcohols, and mixtures thereof, and an alkyl or aryl acrylate or a methacrylate alkylaryl ,. Suitable hydroxyalkyl acrylates and methacrylates include acrylate and hydroxyethyl methacrylate. Suitable allyl alcohols are alkoxylated allylic alcohols including allyl alcohol, metal alcohol, ethoxylated allyl alcohol, ethoxylated methallyl alcohol, propoxylated allyl alcohol, and propoxylated methallyl alcohol. Suitable alkyl or aryl acrylates and methacrylates include alkyl acrylates and methacrylates of 1 to 20 carbon atoms, aryl acrylates and methacrylates of 6 to 20 carbon atoms, similar and mixtures thereof. Examples are n-butyl acrylate, n-butyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, t-butyl methacrylate, butyl butyl methacrylate, benzyl methacrylate, cyclohexyl methacrylate, the like and mixtures thereof. The invention includes a process for polymerizing an aromatic vinyl and a hydroxy functional monomer selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkyl acrylates, hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, allyl alcohols, alkoxylated allyl alcohols and mixtures thereof. The hydroxyalkyl acrylates and methacrylates, allyl alcohols, alkoxylated allyl alcohols and appropriate aromatic vinyls were described above. The invention also includes a process for polymerizing an olefin, an aromatic vinyl, and a hydroxy functional monomer selected from the group consisting of hydroxyalkyl acrylates, hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, allyl alcohols, alkoxylated allyl alcohols, and mixtures thereof. The olefins, acrylates and hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, allyl alcohols, alkoxylated allyl alcohols and appropriate aromatic vinyls were described above. The polymerization of the invention is preferably carried out at a temperature in the range from about 0 ° C to about 200 ° C. The polymerization temperature varies depending on the polymers to be processed. For example, to make acrylic hydroxyl resins or styrene-allyl alcohol copolymers, a relatively high temperature is required (from about 80 ° C to about 150 ° C is preferred). High polymerization temperatures lead to low molecular weight resins, which are suitable for high or low solid coatings in VOC (volatile organic compounds). The polymerization can be carried out in bulk, in solution, suspension or in any other appropriate forms, depending on the polymers to be made. For example, when a styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer is made, a bulk polymerization is preferred because the allyl alcohol is slowly polymerized, and the allyl alcohol in excess functions as a solvent to control the polymerization. When a hydroxyl acrylic resin is made from a hydroxyalkyl acrylate and alkyl acrylate, the polymerization is preferably carried out in solution wherein the solvent is used as a chain transfer agent to decrease the molecular weight of the polymer and to control the polymerization rate. The polymerization can be carried out in a batch process, semi-batches or continuous, depending on the monomers used and the polymers produced. For example, a semi-batch process is preferred when a styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer is made. In the semi-batch process, the allylic alcohol is initially charged to the reactor, and the styrene is fed gradually into the reactor during the polymerization. The gradual addition of styrene ensures a uniform distribution of the groups as a function of the OH along the polymer chain. The invention includes polymers made by the process of the invention. Particularly interesting polymers include hydroxyl acrylic resins (ie, the copolymers include hydroxyl functional monomers, alkyl or aryl acrylates, or alkyl or aryl methacrylates, and optionally aromatic vinyls), olefin-acrylic copolymers, olefin copolymers -vinyl, and vinyl aromatic-allyl alcohol copolymers. The polymers made by the invention differ from the polymers made by the free radical polymerization, in that the polymers of the invention do not contain residual free radical initiators, or fragments of decomposition of the initiator. Polymers made by polymerization with free radical are thermally, chemically or photochemically unstable, due to the residual initiator or fragments of the initiator. Thus, it is expected that the polymers of the invention have improved thermal, chemical and photochemical resistance. The invention also includes articles made from the polymers of the invention. Examples of useful articles that can be made from the polymers of the invention include films, sheets, containers, tubes, fibers, coatings, adhesives, elastomers, sealants and the like. An advantage of the invention is that the LTMC provides better fit than radical polymerization to control polymer properties such as density, molecular weight, and molecular weight distribution. For example, polymerization with LTMC can provide hydroxyl acrylic resins with narrow molecular weight distribution. The narrow molecular weight distribution results in low or high VOC solid coatings. The following examples merely illustrate the invention. Those skilled in the art will recognize many variations that are within the spirit of the invention and the scope of the claims.
