Description
GRAFTING OF POLYMERS WITH FLUOROCARBURO COMPOUNDS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The fluorine-containing defines can be grafted onto polymers containing carbon-hydrogen bonds in the presence of a source of free radicals. The resulting grafted polymers have unique structures, and can be used as catalysts.
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
Organic polymers that contain fluorine substitution have traditionally been made
(co) polymerizing one or more fluorine-containing monomers, optionally with non-fluorinated monomers. It is well known that polymers containing large amounts of fluorine often have desirable properties, such as improved thermal and / or chemical resistance. However, polymers containing only relatively small amounts of fluorine also often have desirable properties
(compared to non-fluorinated polymers), such as altered surface properties or are useful as REF .: 30544 catalysts. Therefore, versatile and economical methods for making polymers with relatively low fluorine contents are desirable.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a process for producing a partially fluorinated polymer, comprising contacting in liquid phase a first polymer containing hydrogen bonded to carbon with a compound of the formula H2C = CHCR1R R6Y, and a source of free radicals, in wherein: R1 and R2 are each independently fluorine or perfluoroalkyl containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms; R6 is fluorinated alkylene containing
1 to 20 carbon atoms and which optionally contains one or more ether or alkylene groups containing from 1 to
carbon atoms and which optionally contains one or more ether groups; and Y is hydrogen or a functional group; and with the condition that the contact is made at a temperature at which the source of free radicals generates free radicals.
This invention also relates to a polymer comprising branches containing the formula -CH2-CH2-CR1R2R6Y, wherein: R1 and R2 are each independently fluorine or perfluoroalkyl containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms; Rb is fluorinated alkylene containing
1 to 20 carbon atoms and optionally containing one or more ether or alkylene groups containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms and optionally containing one or more ether groups; and Y is hydrogen or a functional group; and with the proviso that a polymer backbone contains hydrogen bound to carbon.
DETAILS OF THE INVENTION
Certain terms are used herein, and are defined as follows: "Fluorinated alkylene" means an alkylene group containing one or more fluorine atoms. By a "functional group" is meant any univalent group, defined in R. T.
Morrison, et al., Organic Chemistry, 6th Ed., Prentice Hall, Englewood Cliffs. NJ. 1992, p. 167-168, and is an atom or group of atoms that defines the structure of a particular family of organic compounds and, at the same time, determines (at least partially) their properties. Any functional group present should not interfere with any contemplated reaction such as the graft described above, nor should it result in any compound in which it is present being uselessly unstable. By "graft in the present" is meant the union of a branch to a pre-existing polymer. In the present a branching will usually be monomeric, ie it contains only one of the graft molecules. By a "free radical source" is meant any compound or other means of generating free radicals such as ionizing radiation. If the free radicals are thermally generated, then the grafting reaction is carried out at temperatures at which the source of free radicals reacts to form free radicals. By "containing one or more ether groups" is meant to contain one or more ether oxygen atoms between alkylene segments.
By "hydrocarbyls" is meant a univalent group containing only carbon and hydrogen. By "substituted hydrocarbyl" is meant a hydrocarbyl group containing one or more functional groups. The grafting process described herein is carried out in the liquid phase. This means that all the ingredients are in the liquid phase at the time of the grafting reaction. However, this does not mean that all the ingredients must be in the same liquid phase, nor does it mean that any additional liquid must be present
(such as a "solvent") during the process. The polymer itself and / or the fluorinated compound to be grafted may be liquids and liquefy the other components. If a chemical source of free radicals is used, it can also be a liquid or dissolve in one of the other components, but will often be present in relatively small amounts, and thus be unable to dissolve the other components. Useful Y groups include -S02F, -C02R3, P (0) (0RJ) 2, S03H, SO3M and -S (0) 2NHS (O) ZR4, wherein each of R3 is independently hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl containing 1 to 20 carbon atoms, and R 4 is perfluoroalkyl containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms. In a preferred compound or polymer, Y is halogen, more preferably fluorine; sulfonyl fluoride; sulfonic acid; or hydrogen. Preferred R groups are perfluoro-alkylene or perfluoroalkylene substituted with ether, and especially preferably - (CF2) d- wherein d is from 2 to 20 and -CF20CF2CF2-. Sources of free radicals are well known in the art, see for example J. Brandrup, et al., Ed., Polymer Handbook, 3rd Ed., John Wiley & Sons. New York, 1989, p. II-1 to 11-65 and H. Mark, et al., Ed., Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, vol. 13, John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1988, p. 754-789 both of which are included herein by reference. These "sources" can be chemical compounds such as peroxides or other means to generate free radicals, such as ionizing radiation. More commonly chemical compounds that are sources of free radicals will be used. These compounds can form free radicals by any method, for example by thermally decomposing them to form free radicals, or by the reaction of a redox couple to form free radicals. The thermal decomposition of a source of free radicals is a preferred method for forming free radicals. Useful sources of free radicals include compounds such as t-butyl peroxide and benzoyl peroxide. If a compound is used as a source of free radicals, usually relatively small amounts are used, typically from about 0.1 to about 25 mole percent, preferably about 1 to 10 mole percent, of the graft molecule present. The amount of graft molecule,
H2C = CHCR1R2R6Y, grafted on the polymer vary according to the amount of H2C = CHCR1R2R6Y relative to the polymer, the amount of free radical sources present, and the efficiency of the grafting process. It is preferred that about 1 to about 5000 g, more preferably from about 500 g to about 2000 g, of graft molecule per kg of ungrafted (starting) polymer is currently grafted onto the polymer. In another preferred process and its resulting polymer, the grafted polymer has more hydrogen atoms than fluorine atoms, more preferably the ratio of hydrogen atoms to fluorine atoms is about 3 or more, especially preferably about 5 to about 150. .
The polymers that can be grafted in the process described herein, that is to say they are suitable, are those that do not undergo as much decomposition, typically decrease in molecular weight, in the presence of free radicals, as to return to the final non-usable product. It is well known in the art, see for example H. Mark, et al., Ed., Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, vol. 13, John Wiley &; Sons, New York, 1988, p. 667-682, that some polymers are relatively stable in the presence of free radicals, while others may undergo relatively rapid chain division and molecular weight decrease. For example linear polyethylene is thought to be relatively stable, while most polypropylenes are thought to be relatively unstable. However, even "relatively unstable" polymers can be grafted under some circumstances. For example, when it is desired to graft only a small amount of H2C = CHCR1R2R6Y onto the polymer, only small amounts of the free radical source, and the resultant loss of molecular weight (if any) in the polymer that is being used, may be necessary. grafted may be acceptable in the intended application. Exposure to free radicals can also crosslink some polymers, depending on the conditions. A situation such as this may also be acceptable, since the crosslinked polymers may also be desired. For example, if used as a catalyst, the insolubility of a cross-linked polymer can be an advantage in recovering the polymer after use. Effectively in the process described herein a crosslinked polymer can be used as the starting polymer. In this case it may be desirable to dilate the crosslinked polymer with another compound or with H2C = CHCRiR2R6Y and / or the source of free radicals, to obtain a more uniform graft. Preferred polymers for grafting include polyethylene, especially (relatively) linear polyethylene, polyethers such as poly (tetramethylene ether) glycol, and ethylene copolymers such as ethylene / vinyl acetate copolymer and ethylene / methyl acrylate copolymer . Reactions may be made on the grafted polymer after the grafting reaction. For example, the functional groups grafted onto the polymer can be transformed into other functional groups. The grafted polymers described herein can be used as molding resins, in coatings, or be used to form films. They can be mixed with other polymers to modify those other characteristics of the polymers, such as surface properties. Grafted polymers containing functional groups may be useful as catalysts, see for example Experiment 4. In the Examples and Experiments, the following abbreviations are used: 3-Me-THF-3-methyltetrahydrofuran DSC - differential scanning calorimetry Mn - weight Mw number average molecular weight - weight average molecular weight pf - melting point PD - polydispersity, Mw / Mn TA - room temperature TGA - thermogravimetric analysis THF - tetrahydrofuran Tm - melting point (for a polymer) In all TGA analyzes, the heating rate was 20 ° C / minute , unless it is observed in another way.
