- TITLErComposition comprising at least two organic peroxides for the polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers
- the present invention relates to a composition
- a composition comprising a first organic peroxide having a one hour half-life temperature comprised between 50°C and less than 85°C and a second organic peroxide having a one hour half-life temperature comprised between 85°C and 120°C.
- the invention also concerns the use of such a composition as initiator for the radical polymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers and in particular vinyl esters monomers, preferably vinyl acetate monomers.
- the invention namely deals with a process for preparing a polyolefin, especially polyvinyl polymers such as polyvinyl acetate (PVA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) polymers, comprising at least one step of radical polymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the presence of an effective amount of a composition as previously defined.
- PVA polyvinyl acetate
- PVOH polyvinyl alcohol
- Polyvinyl alcohols are well known in commerce and widely used as protective colloid for the manufacture of polymer dispersions in emulsion, as thickening or stabilizing agent, as size in textile industries, in the manufacture of paper and as a starting material for synthetic fiber. Polyvinyl alcohols may also be used as adhesives, films, binding agents, and the like.
- the first step involves a free radical polymerization of vinyl acetate (VA) carried out in the presence of one or more initiators, such as organic peroxides, azo compounds such as azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), or a mixture thereof, in an organic solvent, advantageously monohydric aliphatic alcohols having 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol and the various isomeric types of propyl and butyl alcohol.
- initiators such as organic peroxides, azo compounds such as azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), or a mixture thereof
- AIBN azobisisobutyronitrile
- Vinyl acetate monomers are polymerized at a temperature depending on the temperature of decomposition of the initiators (temperature at which the initiators generate free radicals), preferably ranging from 45°C and 130°C, until they are completely converted or, in many cases, converted only to a certain extent into polyvinyl acetate (PVA).
- temperature at which the initiators generate free radicals preferably ranging from 45°C and 130°C, until they are completely converted or, in many cases, converted only to a certain extent into polyvinyl acetate (PVA).
- the second step implements a conversion of said polyvinyl acetate into polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH).
- the conversion may be performed by carrying out a hydrolysis, alcoholysis or saponification reaction of the polyvinyl acetate.
- PVA polyvinyl acetate
- the polyvinyl acetate (PVA) comprises in its structure at least one repeat unit corresponding to the following formula:
- n the degree of polymerization.
- n represents the degree of polymerization.
- the degree of polymerization, the molecular weight and the conversion rate reached for both mentioned polymers mostly depend on the type and amount of initiators used during the polymerization of the vinyl acetate monomers.
- the tedious aspect of the two-stage process as previously described lies in the fact that the degree of polymerization, the molecular weight and the conversion rate of both polymers, polyvinyl acetate and polyvinyl alcohol, are completely intertwined. Indeed, when a high molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol is to be produced, a polyvinyl acetate having the corresponding degree of polymerization must be used and therefore obtained in the first step of the process. As a result, the production of a high molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol can turn out to be difficult if the conversion rate or the degree of polymerization of polyvinyl acetate is not satisfactory during the first step of the process.
- AIBN is classically used to generate free radicals of 2-cyanopropyl, in order to initiate free radical polymerization of vinyl acetate monomers.
- AIBN has the advantage of being soluble in organic solvent, especially in monohydric aliphatic alcohols.
- TMSN tetramethylsuccinonitrile
- peroxides especially peroxyesters such as tert-butyl peroxypivalate sold under the name Luperox® 11M75 by Arkema, have been used to initiate the free radical polymerization of vinyl acetate monomers instead of AIBN, especially to produce low molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol.
- This kind of peroxides presents the benefit to be more reactive than AIBN, making it possible to consider using a lower amount of this compound, for example around 50-70% less than AIBN.
- tert-butyl peroxypivalate tends to decompose in smaller molecules than AIBN which are easier to remove from the final product. Nevertheless, the main flaw of tert-butyl peroxypivalate is the high energy of the generated free radicals, which may lead during the polymerization to polyvinyl acetate being branched and non-linear. More particularly, during the polymerization, a hydrogen atom from the alpha, beta-position or methyl carbon of the acetate group may react with another vinyl acetate monomer leading to the formation of several branch chains.
- Such branched polyvinyl acetate contains at least one repeat unit corresponding to the following formula:
- a, n and x represents integers, wherein n>l, x3l, and a>0, with a ⁇ n.
- the polyvinyl acetate obtained at the end of the first step is branched and non-linear, it will also impede on the degree of polymerization of polyvinyl alcohol during the conversion reaction in the second step of the process. Because of these sub-reactions, the degree of polymerization of PVOH decreases and is even lower than the one obtained with AIBN.
- tert-butyl peroxypivalate is less satisfactory than AIBN in terms of degree of polymerization, conversion rate and therefore obtained molecular weight.
- compositions which are able to reduce the side products while maintaining the degree of polymerization, the molecular weight and/or the conversion rate of a polyolefin obtained by free radical polymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, especially of vinyl monomers and more preferably vinyl esters monomers and (meth)acrylic acid esters monomers, as compared to the azo-initiators of the prior art.
- the present invention relates to a composition
- a composition comprising: from 5 to 40% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition of a first organic peroxide having a one hour half-life temperature comprised between 50°C and less than 85°C, more preferably comprised between 54°C and 77°C and even more preferably comprised between 60°C and 70°C, the first organic peroxide being a peroxyester according to formula (I):
- R and R’ are the same or different and are selected from a linear or branched C4-C20 alkyl radical; and from 60 to 95% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition of a second organic peroxide having a one hour half-life temperature comprised between 85°C and 120°C, more preferably comprised between 88°C and 120°C and even more preferably comprised between 90°C and 95°C.
- composition as previously defined allows a conversion kinetic of polyolefins, especially vinyl polymers, obtained by free radical polymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, comparable with the one obtained with AIBN, without the drawbacks associated to its use.
- composition of the invention does not lead to the colouration of vinyl polymers, in particular polyvinyl alcohols, especially to their yellowing, unlike the use of AIBN.
- decomposition of peroxyesters of the invention leads to small molecules which may be easily eliminated.
- the decomposition of peroxyesters used in the composition generates small molecules that are less toxic than TMSN during the free radical polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers.
- the composition according to the invention is liquid at ambient temperature and highly soluble in the organic solvent used during the free radical polymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, especially of vinyl monomers and more preferably vinyl esters monomer.
