Polymerization of β-cyanopropionaldehyde. IX. Anionic copolymerization with phenyl isocyanate

Anionic Vinyl Polymerization

The concept of anionic polymerization was first developed by Ziegler and Schlenk in early 1910. Their pioneering work on the polymerization of diene initiated with sodium metal set the stage for the use of alkali metal containing aromatic hydrocarbon complexes as initiators for various α-olefins. In 1939, Scott and coworkers used for the first time the alkali metal complexes of aromatic hydroca...

Polymerization of anionic wormlike micelles.

Polymerizable anionic wormlike micelles are obtained upon mixing the hydrotropic salt p-toluidine hydrochloride (PTHC) with the reactive anionic surfactant sodium 4-(8-methacryloyloxyoctyl)oxybenzene sulfonate (MOBS). Polymerization captures the cross-sectional radius of the micelles (approximately 2 nm), induces micellar growth, and leads to the formation of a stable single-phase dispersion of...

The reaction between wool and phenyl isocyanate.

During some studies on the reactivity of the cystine linkages in wool, it was necessary to find methods for blocking the various polar side chains with minimum degradation of the fibre as a whole, and without introducing any coloration due to the reagent used. Various workers have found that the amino groups of proteins react readily with i8ocyanates in aqueous solution at pH 8 and 00 (Hopkins ...
