Definitions
- Example 4 discloses the reaction with perfluoro butadiene, with a large excess of perfluorinated bis-olefin, resulting in pendant unsaturated groups along the macromolecular chain such that the reaction can further proceed in the presence of hexamethylenediamine.
- US 6,403,539 discloses perfluoro-polyether polymers containing sulphonyl fluoride groups pending along the backbone.
- This patent application discloses a process wherein the sulphonyl fluoride-containing monomer is contemporaneously fed with an O 2 flow in a liquid reaction medium, thus obtaining perfluoropolyethers containing in the chain peroxidic groups.
- the presence of the peroxidic groups is not desired for safety concerns.
- this patent application discloses that to obtain non peroxidic products without chain scission, the peroxidic perfluoropolyethers are subjected to a thermal treatment at temperatures generally in the range from 150°C to 250°C or to a photochemical treatment, optionally in the presence of a solvent.
- the process herein disclosed – in which the functionalized monomer is added at the beginning of the polymerization - does not allow the synthesis of a polymer having segregated blocks from the functionalized monomer but rather it allows for the synthesis of a PFPE polymer having randomly distributed functional groups.
- Polyfunctional (per)fluoropolyether polymers have been further disclosed in US 5,719,259 (E.I.
- US 2011/0230631 (Solvay Solexis S.p.A, September 22, 2011) discloses (per)fluoropolyethers comprising at least one (per)fluoropolyoxyalkylene chain comprising at least one recurring unit of formula -CF 2 -CF(CF 2 O-SO 2 F)-O-, wherein fluorosulfate group in brackets is a pendant group, which is subsequently reacted with a nucleophilic agent to provide functional groups, such as notably carboxylic acid, acyl fluoride, amide and esters.
- functional groups such as notably carboxylic acid, acyl fluoride, amide and esters.
- CN 103724559 discloses a method comprising placing the perfluoropolyether peroxide prepared by a photo-oxidation method in an inert fluorine-containing solvent, introducing perfluoro-olefin under an ultraviolet irradiation condition, and reacting the perfluoro-olefin with the peroxide to form a stable perfluoropolyether compound.
- WO 2019/048394 Solvay Specialty Polymers Italy S.p.A., March 14, 2019 discloses polyfunctional perfluoropolyether derivatives including a plurality of ionisable groups selected from the group consisting of -SO3Xa, -PO3Xa and – COOXa, wherein Xa is H, ammonium group or a monovalent metal.
- Xa is H, ammonium group or a monovalent metal.
- the Applicant developed new co-polymers comprising (per)fluoropolyether chains and (per)fluorinated co-monomers, whose properties - for example with respect to their viscosity and/or physical appearance - can be properly tuned based on their intended final use.
- the Applicant faced the problem of preparing new co-polymers comprising (per)fluoropolyether chains characterised by increased viscosity (as measured by complex viscosity at 0.1 rad/s at 25°C).
- the new copolymers according to the present invention show a low glass transition temperature (T g ) and are in the liquid state at room temperature.
- T g glass transition temperature
- the new copolymers according to the present invention can be provided in a solid form, such as in particular as rubbers, or in a semi-solid form.
- the Applicant developed new copolymers comprising functional groups, which can be advantageously introduced as pendant groups along the main backbone of the PFPE copolymers to make them suitable for use as SSPI 2022/021 additives in different technical fields, including as anti-rust, anti-wear, to increase compatibility among base oils and thickeners and other ingredients dispersed in such base oils.
- copolymer (P) according to the invention can be provided in liquid form or in semi-solid form. However, when required by the final use, copolymer (P) can also be provided in the form of solid, such as a rubber.
- copolymer (P) is characterised by a complex viscosity, measured at 0.1 rad/s and at 25°C, varying in a large range, such as from 10 Pa*s to more than 2000 Pa*s.
- said first chain end of said first and second PFPE chain correspond to the two chain ends of copolymer (P).
- each of said PFPE chain is a fully fluorinated chain [chain (Rf)] comprising, preferably consists of, repeating units R°, said repeating units being independently selected from the group consisting of: (i) -CFXO-, wherein X is -F or -CF3; (ii) -CFXCFXO-, wherein X, equal or different at each occurrence, is -F or -CF3, with the proviso that at least one of X is -F; (iii) -CF2CF2CF2O-; (iv) -CF 2 CF 2 CF 2 O-; (v) -(CF 2 ) j -CFZ-O- wherein j is an integer from 0 to 3 and Z is a group of general formula -O-R(f-a)-T, wherein R(f-a) is a fluoropolyoxyalkene chain
