Submicron polyethylene particles from catalytic emulsion polymerization.
Particles of linear polyethylene (M(n) = (2-3) x 10(3) g x mol(-)(1); M(w)/M(n) = 2-4) obtained by catalytic emulsion polymerization of ethylene possess a nonspherical, lentil-like shape with an average aspect ratio of ca. 10 and diameters from 30 to >300 nm, as determined by TEM and AFM. The particle structure results from a stacking of the lamellae along the one shorter axis of the lentils (i...
متن کاملSilica/Polyethylene Nanocomposite Particles from Catalytic Emulsion Polymerization
Catalytic emulsion polymerization of ethylene with nickel catalysts in the presence of silica nanoparticles affords stable dispersions of silica/polyethylene nanocomposite particles. The modification of the surface of silica particles by grafting upon their surface of octenylor octylsilanes is a prerequisite for obtaining composites. Different morphologies of composites particles were observed ...
متن کاملSingle Lamella Crystals of Polyethylene Accessible by Catalytic Emulsion-Polymerization
INTRODUCTION Since many decades, polyethylene (PE) is one of the commodity polymers which has become ubiquitous because of its low price and good mechanical properties. Hence, the number of applications of the material is huge and many millions of tons are produced worldwide annually. However, PE has hardly played any role in the emerging field of nanotechnology so far. This is due to the probl...
متن کاملCatalytic Ethylene Polymerization in Aqueous Emulsion : Catalyst Tailoring and Synthesis of Very Small Latex Particles
INTRODUCTION Emulsion polymerization yielding polymer latexes, is carried out on a vast scale. The use of water as a dispersion medium offers a unique combination of features, such as effective heat transfer, effective stabilization of polymer particles by surfactants, and environmental friendliness. By contrast to polymerization in solution or in the bulk, in emulsion polymerization a large po...
متن کامل1,2-Polybutadiene Latices by Catalytic Polymerization in Aqueous Emulsion
Catalytic aqueous polymerization of butadiene by the cobalt catalyst system [Co(C8H13)(C4H6)]/CS2 affords colloidally stable latices of highly crystalline syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene (Tm ) 190 °C, ∆Hc ) 60 J/g, Mw ∼ 105 g/mol, 97% 1,2, 3% 1,4-cis). Catalyst modification with reagents containing electrophilic carbon atoms (e.g., aromatic formamides) strongly decreases polymer crystallinity (T...
