Definitions
- This invention relates to graft polymers, and more particularly to polymers containing protected groups capable of being converted to reactive functional groups at high temperature.
- Blends of polymers derived from olefinically unsaturated monomers with other polymers frequently have advantageous properties as compared with the individual polymeric constituents.
- polyphenylene ethers are known for their high temperature resistance, high melt viscosities and toughness. However, they are somewhat deficient for many uses in such properties as solvent resistance, impact strength and workability.
- Blends of this type are disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,166,055, 4,383,082 and 4,584,334. It is generally required that such blends contain relatively low proportions of olefin polymer, since in higher proportions they become incompatible with the polyphenylene ether and parts molded therefrom are brittle and may undergo delamination.
- Copolymer-containing polyphenylene ether compositions of this general type are disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,600,741 (carboxy-substituted polyphenylene ethers and polyamides) and in PCT application 87/7279 and copending, commonly owned application Ser. No. 122,480, filed Nov. 10, 1987, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,015,698 (carboxy- and epoxy-substituted polyphenylene ethers and polyesters) the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference herein.
- Copolymer formation generally requires the presence on both polymers of interractive groups such as carboxylic acid, epoxy and/or amide groups, which may be provided in the case of polyphenylene ethers by reaction with one or more suitable reagents such as trimellitic anhydride acid chloride or terephthaloyl chloride followed by glycidol.
- interractive groups such as carboxylic acid, epoxy and/or amide groups
- suitable reagents such as trimellitic anhydride acid chloride or terephthaloyl chloride followed by glycidol.
- Olefin polymers containing, for example, carboxylic acid moieties, which are capable of reaction with epoxy-functionalized polyphenylene ethers and the like, are known in the art. They are generally copolymers of such olefins as ethylene or propylene with acidic monomers such as acrylic or methacrylic acid. However, the proportion of acidic groups therein is often much too high for effective copolymer formation with retention of the properties of the olefin polymers.
- olefin polymers containing, for example, amino groups which can react with carboxylic acid groups on other polymers are, for the most part, unavailable since unsaturated amines "trap" free radicals formed by the action of radical initiators, acting as chain terminators for the polymerization reaction.
- the present invention provides a novel class of graft polymers derived from addition polymers of olefinically unsaturated monomers and containing protected amine or carboxy moieties. Said moieties are capable of conversion at high temperatures to free amino or carboxy groups, which are in turn capable of undergoing reaction with reactive groups on other polymers, facilitating copolymer formation.
- the invention includes graft polymers comprising molecules having:
- a base polymer chain consisting essentially of structural units derived from an olefinically unsaturated hydrocarbon which is unsubstituted or contains substantially non-reactive substituents, and grafted moieties thereon having .Iadd.one of .Iaddend.the .[.formula.]. .Iadd.formulas .Iaddend. ##STR1## wherein:
- X is --NH--, an alkylene radical containing about 1-4 carbon atoms or an arylene radical containing about 6-10 carbon atoms;
- R 1 is hydrogen, halogen, an alkyl radical containing about 1-4 carbon atoms or an aryl radical containing about 6-10 carbon atoms;
- R 2 is a tertiary alkyl radical containing about 4-10 carbon atoms
- n 0 or 1
- n has an average value from 1 to about 5.
- the base chains in the graft polymers of this invention are conventionally derived from such monomers as ethylene, propylene, isobutene, styrene, butadiene, isoprene, chloroprene, vinyl chloride or vinylidene chloride. They may be homopolymers or copolymers, amorphous or crystalline. Polyethylene and polypropylene homopolymers, the former including high density, low density and linear low density polyethylene, are often preferred.
- R 1 may be hydrogen, halogen, alkyl or aryl as defined hereinabove and is most often hydrogen or methyl.
- R 2 is a tertiary alkyl group as described and is most often t-butyl.
- m is 0 or 1; that is, the X value may be present or absent. When present, it may be an --NH-- group or an alkylene or arylene radical as defined. .[.In the.]. .Iadd.The .Iaddend.preferred graft copolymers.[., m is 0 or m is 1 and X and is --NH--.]. .Iadd.have formula II.Iaddend..
- n is from 1 to about 5. It is usually about 1-2, with a value of about 1 being preferred.
- the graft polymers of this invention may be prepared by free radical addition of a corresponding olefinic compound to a polymer corresponding to the base polymer chain. Such addition may take place under any suitable conditions for free radical reactions of this type. Thus, bulk or solution addition reactions are acceptable. It is frequently advantageous to conduct the reaction in the melt, in conventional melt reaction equipment such as an extruder.
- Any suitable temperature for a free radical addition reaction up to about 225° C. may be employed. Above about 200° C., the maximum reaction time should be about 5 minutes since longer times may cause some degree of thermal degradation of the product. Thermal degradation predominates at temperatures above about 225° C.
- the preferred reaction temperature is in the range of about 150°-200° C.
- a free radical initiator in the preparation of the graft polymers of the invention. Any initiator which will generate free radicals at the reaction temperatures employed may be used. Suitable initiators are known in the art; they include dicumyl peroxide, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-bis(t-butylperoxy)hexane and 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-bis(t-butylperoxy)-3-hexyne.
- the proportion of olefinic reactant used will depend on the intended purpose of the graft polymer and the degree of functionalization desired. In general, said proportion is up to about 5% and preferably about 2-3% by weight of the base polymer, whereupon the graft copolymer is functionalized in about the same proportion.
- Dry blends of a commercially available linear low density polyethylene and a free radical initiator were extruded on a single-screw extruder at 175° C. and 400 rpm., as t-butyl methacrylate was introduced by syringe pump into the extruder throat to provide 3% thereof by weight based on polyethylene.
- the extrudates were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dissolved in xylene, reprecipitated and again analyzed to determine the degree of grafting.
- the graft polymers of this invention undergo thermal degradation at relatively high temperatures, with the elimination of olefin and, when .[.X is.]. .Iadd.an .Iaddend. --NH-- .Iadd.group is present.Iaddend., carbon dioxide, to yield carboxy- or amino-substituted polymers.
- the latter are capable of reaction with other polymers containing various functional groups.
- they react with functionalized polyphenylene ethers to form polyphenylene ether-polyolefin copolymers, which are in turn useful as compatibilizers for blends of polyphenylene ethers and olefin polymers.
- polyphenylene ethers are a well known class of polymers. They are widely used in industry, especially as engineering plastics in applications requiring toughness and heat resistance. Since their discovery, they have given rise to numerous variations and modifications all of which are applicable to the present invention, including but not limited to those described hereinafter.
- the polyphenylene ethers comprise a plurality of structural unit having the formula ##STR2##

- Suitable primary lower alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, n-amyl, isoamyl, 2-methylbutyl, n-hexyl, 2,3-dimethylbutyl, 2-, 3- or 4-methylpentyl and the corresponding heptyl groups.
- secondary lower alkyl groups are isopropyl, sec-butyl and 3-pentyl.
- any alkyl radicals are straight chain rather than branched
- each Q 1 is alkyl or phenyl, especially C 1-4 alkyl
- each Q 2 is hydrogen.
- Suitable polyphenylene ethers are disclosed in a large number of patents.
- Suitable homopolymers are those containing, for example, 2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether units.
- Suitable copolymers include random copolymers containing such units in combination with (for example) 2,3,6-trimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether units.
- Many suitable random copolymers, as well as homopolymers, are disclosed in the patent literature.
- polyphenylene ethers containing moieties which modify properties such as molecular weight, melt viscosity and/or impact strength.
- Such polymers are described in the patent literature and may be prepared by grafting onto the polyphenylene ether in known manner such vinyl monomers as acrylonitrile and vinylaromatic compounds (e.g., styrene), or such polymers as polystyrenes and elastomers.
- the product typically contains both grafted and ungrafted moieties.
- Suitable polymers are the coupled polyphenylene ethers in which the coupling agent is reacted in known manner with the hydroxy groups of two polyphenylene ether chains to produce a higher molecular weight polymer containing the reaction product of the hydroxy groups and the coupling agent.
- Illustrative coupling agents are low molecular weight polycarbonates, quinones, heterocycles and formals.
- the polyphenylene ether generally has a number average molecular weight within the range of about 3,000-40,000 and a weight average molecular weight within the range of about 20,000-80,000, as determined by gel permeation chromatography. Its intrinsic viscosity is most often in the range of about 0.35-0.6 dl./g., as measured in chloroform at 25° C.
- the polyphenylene ethers are typically prepared by the oxidative coupling of at least one corresponding monohydroxyaromatic compound.
- Particularly useful and readily available monohydroxyaromatic compounds are 2,6-xylenol (wherein each Q 1 is methyl and each Q 2 is hydrogen), whereupon the polymer may be characterized as a poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether), and 2,3,6-trimethylphenol (wherein each Q 1 and one Q 2 is methyl and the other Q 2 is hydrogen).
- catalyst systems are known for the preparation of polyphenylene ethers by oxidative coupling. There is no particular limitation as to catalyst choice and any of the known catalysts can be used. For the most part, they contain at least one heavy metal compound such as a copper, manganese or cobalt compound, usually in combination with various other materials.
- a first class of preferred catalyst systems consists of those containing a copper compound.
- Such catalysts are disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,306,874, 3,306,875, 3,914,266 and 4,028,341. They are usually combinations of cuprous or cupric ions, halide (i.e., chloride, bromide or iodide) ions and at least one amine.

- Polymers containing the aminoalkyl-substituted end groups of formula .[.III.]. (.Iadd.IV) .Iaddend. may be obtained by incorporating an appropriate primary or secondary monoamine as one of the constituents of the oxidative coupling reaction mixture, especially when a copper- or manganese-containing catalyst is used.
- Such amines, especially the dialkylamines and preferably di-n-butylamine and dimethylamine frequently become chemically bound to the polyphenylene ether, most often by replacing one of the ⁇ -hydrogen atoms on one or more Q 1 radicals.
- the principal site of reaction is the Q 1 radical adjacent to the hydroxy group on the terminal unit of the polymer chain.
