    Notes: Equilibrium acid concentrations, [Ae], were determined in butylene adipate and caprolactone polyesters, of low molecular weight, and in thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers based on these polyesters. Values of [Ae] of the polyesters at 85°C were 0.7, 1.3, and 3-4 × 10-3 mol/g at relative humidities (RH) of 25%, 50%, and 93%, respectively. [Ae] of the thermoplastic elastomers at 85°C were about 3 and 7 × 10-4 mol/g at 10% and 25% RH, respectively. Values of [Ae] were not very dependent on temperature at constant RH. Equilibrated thermoplastic elastomers had low molecular weights and poor physical properties. Consequently, equilibration does not set a practical limit on hydrolytic degradation, even at low RH. Equations were developed that described the variation in acid content with time. Rate constants for hydrolysis and esterification increased as RH decreased. Reesterification in the elastomers in the absence of water is too slow to be a useful method of decreasing hydrolytic damage.

    Notes: Copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and propylene were prepared that contained 30-65 mole-% of the former. Reactivity ratios of tetrafluoroethylene- and propylene-ended radicals are 0.008 and 0.06, respectively, resulting in formation of highly alternating copolymers. The glass temperatures, Tg, were determined using a differential scanning calorimeter. Values ranged from 260 to 275°K. A plot of Tg versus composition has a low maximum centered about the equimolar composition. Copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and isobutylene were prepared that contained 30-56 mole-% of the former. Reactivity ratios of tetrafluoroethylene- and isobutylene-ended radicals are 0.005 and 0.021, respectively. The glass temperatures of these copolymers range from 257 to 313°K. A higher maximum at the equimolar composition is obtained when Tg is plotted versus composition. Isobutylene-containing copolymers having 45-54 mole-% tetrafluoroethylene are crystalline. Melting temperatures range from 416 to 476°K and have their maximum value at the equimolar composition. It is thought that long sequences of alternating units behave as a third entity in these copolymers, the other two being nonalternating units of the two monomers. Unless inhibited, ionic homopolymerization of isobutylene can be appreciable, sometimes resulting in the polymer having two Tg.

    Notes: The radiation-induced polymerization of cis- and trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene in bulk and with tetrafluoroethylene was studied at pressures between 5000 and 15000 atm and temperatures between 21 and 100°C. At 103 rad/hr the homopolymerization rates range from about 10-4 to 1%/hr. The activation enthalpy and volume are about 8 kcal/mole (33 kJ/mole) and -10 cm3/mole, respectively, for both isomers. The cis isomer polymerizes about twice as rapidly as the trans isomer. The latter freezes in the experimental range of temperature and pressure; the polymerization rate is very low in solid phase. Polymer intrinsic viscosities increase with polymerization pressure and decrease with polymerization temperature; the largest value obtained was 0.23 dl/g. In the copolymerizations all reactivity ratios favor incorporation of tetrafluoroethylene by factors of 6-16. The preference is stronger when the trans isomer is used.

    Notes: Tetrafluoroethylene (A) and 1,2,3,4,5-pentafluorostyrene (B) were irradiated at 15°C at autogenous pressure by use of 30-92 mole-% A and at 5000 atm by use of 42-99.9 mole-% A. The high-pressure results indicate that the reactivity ratio rA for monomer addition to A-ended radicals is 0.005; the other reactivity ratio rB appears to vary from 15 to 60 generally increasing with the A content of the charge. At autogenous pressure rA is small, but a precise determination is not possible because of the very low polymerization rate when the A content of the charge is high. However, if rA is less than 0.01, then values of rB vary from 15 to 50, again generally increasing with the A content of the charge. Mixtures of A and B exhibit positive deviations from Raoult's Law. Activity coefficients were measured at autogeneous pressure and used in an attempt to correct rB for the nonideality of solution. The range of rB was reduced only slightly to 8-27, and charges with high A contents now generally gave low values of rB; consequently, this approach was not regarded as a success. Another attempt was made to account for the apparent variation in rB by ascribing influence to the penultimate units of the radicals. Improved agreement between theoretical and observed compositions resulted, but significant discrepancies remained unexplained. Rate data agreed well with those calculated from a theoretical copolymer rate equation using values of rA and rB of 0.0045 and 40, respectively. The equation predicts an almost proportional decrease in rate with increasing proportions of A in the charge from 0 to 99 mole-% A.

    Notes: The Henry's law and diffusion constants of vinyl chloride in poly(vinyl chloride) were determined at temperatures of 24, 90, 120, 150, and 170°C for weight fractions of vinyl chloride between 0.2 × 10-3 and 0.8 × 10-3. Above 90°C, Henry's law applies; values of the constant increase with temperature from 1.8 × 102 to 5.5 × 102 atm per unit weight fraction of dissolved vinyl chloride. The heat of desorption is about 15 kJ/mole. At 24°C, the nominal Henry's law constant was smaller than would have been obtained by extrapolating the values found at higher temperature. The diffusion constants increase with temperature from about 2 × 10-13 to 3 × 10-7 cm2/sec. The activation energy for diffusion is about 110 kJ/mole between 90 and 170°C. Although all values were determined in the absence of air, it is likely that they apply to polymer in air. They may, therefore, be used to calculate the vinyl chloride content in the gas above poly(vinyl chloride) under specific processing conditions.

    Notes: The radiation-induced copolymerization of tetrafluoroethylene (A) and styrene (B) was studied in bulk and in perfluorotoluene at 22°C at autogenous pressure and 260 and 510 MPa. The reactivity ratio for addition to A-ended radicals, rA, is effectively zero at the two lower pressures and is in the range 0.002-0.008 at 510 MPa. The other reactivity ratio, rB, is 6 at autogenous pressure and also at 260 and 510 MPa if the A content of the charge is less than 50%. If the A content is greater than 95%, rB appears to be 100 at pressures of 260 and 510 MPa. The apparent variation in rB cannot be explained by invoking a penultimate unit effect for B-ended radicals. Polymerization rates scatter somewhat, but all rates are quite small when the A content of the charge is in the range 95-99.8%. Polymers containing as much as 66% A appear to be inherently benzene soluble but frequently contain some gel because of radiation-induced crosslinking after their formation. No very high polymers were formed that contained more than a few percent A, even at high pressure. Features that complicated the study were immiscibility of the liquid monomers, extreme variation of the monomer - copolymer compatibility with charge composition, and freezing of B at high pressure.

    Notes: The radiation-induced polymerization of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene was studied as a function of temperature (22-100°C) and pressure (autogenous to 104 atm). Rates have varied 100-fold for the same reaction conditions probably because of trace impurities. The most rapidly polymerizing material has a rate of 4.5%/hr at 6000 atm, 22°C, and 1500 rad/hr. The activation enthalpy and volume are 4 kcal/mole and -13 cc/mole, respectively. Rates are proportional to the square root of the radiation intensity. Degrees of polymerization varied between 2 × 103 and 2 × 106. In copolymerization with tetrafluoroethylene the reactivity ratios at 22°C and 5000 atm are 0.37 (the ratio for addition to the tetrafluoroethylene-ended radical) and 5.4 (the ratio for addition to the tetrafluoropropene-ended radical). Comparison of ratios for the copolymerization of other fluorinej-containing monomers with tetrafluoroethylene shows that they generally disfavor incorporation of the latter.

    Notes: An investigation was made of the γ-ray-induced copolymerization of tetrafluoroethylene and 3,3,4,4,5,5,5-heptafluoropentene-1. At 22°C at 5000 and 10 000 atm the polymerization rate changes little between 0 and 75 mole-% tetrafluoroethylene. Above 90 mole-% the rate increases greatly. Molecular weights vary with composition in a fashion similar to the variation of the rates. Crystallization occurs in the bulk pentene at 13 500 atm at 24°C. The polymerization rate is very low in the solid state. Under some conditions polymerization continues long after irradiation is ended. Both reactivity ratios favor the pentene. Several copolymer properties were studied. The polymers are amorphous and soluble in perfluoro ethers, perfluoro alkanes, and perfluoroaromatics if they contain less than 80% tetrafluoroethylene. The glass temperatures of the amorphous polymers decrease and the thermal and radiation stability increases as the tetrafluoroethylene content increases.

    Notes: A study was made of the radiation-induced polymerization under pressure of 3,3,4,4,5,5,5-heptafluoropentene-1. Polymerization rates increase with pressure (activation volume equals - 11 cc/mole) and temperature (activation enthalpy equals 6.5 kcal/mole) in liquid phase. At 13800 atm and 25°C, freezing occurs; the polymerization rate in the solid is very small. In liquid phase polymerization can continue for many hours after the irradiation is terminated. An active species is formed by radiation which initiates polymerization in the dark period.
