    Graft Polymerization of Vinyl Acetate onto Starch. Saponification to Starch-g-Poly(vinyl Alcohol) GEORGE F. FANTA, R. C. BURR, W. M. DOANE, and C. R. RUSSELL, Northern Regional Research Center, Agricultural Research, Science and Education Administration, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Peoria, Illinois 61604 Synopsis Graft polymerizations ofvinyl acetate onto granular corn starch were initiated by cobalt-60 irra­ diation of starch-monomer-water mixtures. and ungrafted poly(vinyl acetate) was separated from the graft copolymer by benzene extraction. Conversions of monomer to polymer were quantitative at a radiation dose of 1.0 IvIrad. However, over half of the polymer was present as ungrafted poly­ (vinyl acetate) (grafting efficiency less than 50%), and the graft copolymer contained only :34'1,) grafted synthetic polymer (:34% add-on). Lower irradiation doses produced lower conversions of monomer to polymer and gave graft copolymers with lower % add-on. Addition of minor amounts of acryl­ amide, methyl acrylate, and methacrylic acid as comonomers produced only small increases in % add-on and grafting efficiency. However, grafting efficiency was increased to 70% when a monomer mixture containing about 10% methyl methacrylate was used. Grafting efficiency could be increased to over 90% if the graft polymerization of vinyl acetate-methyl methacrylate was carried out near O°C, although conversion of monomers to polymer was low and grafted polymer contained 40-50',\0 poly(methyl methacrylate). Selected graft copolymers were treated with methanolic sodium hy­ droxide to convert starch-g-poly(vinyl acetate) to starch-g-poly(vinyl alcohol). The molecular weight of the poly(vinyl alcohol) moiety \vas about 30,000.

  • Vinyl Acetate from Ethylene, Acetic Acid and Oxygen Industrial Plant Simulation
    Vinyl Acetate from ethylene, acetic acid and oxygen Industrial Plant Simulation. J.P. Contreras, J.C. Naranjo, S. Ramírez & D.M. Martínez Chemical Engineer department, Los Andes University, Bogotá, Colombia. I.D. Gil Chemical Engineer department, National University of Colombia, Bogotá, Colombia. Paper # 134650 ABSTRACT The production of vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) represents one of the largest industries with a growth es- timate of a near 2.7% per year starting in 2008. In recent times, thanks to different studies and the importance of said product, one process has been developed based on the reaction of ethylene, acetic acid, and oxygen us- ing a Pd/Au catalyst. In this work, a detailed study was made based on a simulation of the process using the Aspen Plus v2006 program and establishing the correct operation conditions. The simulated process involves, from the preparation of the raw materials until the dehydration of the monomer. The restrictions set for the simulation corresponds to the VAM composition restriction in the extractive distillation column using glycerol. INTRODUCTION Vinyl acetate is a colorless, flammable liquid that also has a characteristic smell that can quickly become irri- tating. This monomer is used principally in the production of polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and other vinyl acetate co-polymers. Polyvinyl acetate is a precursor of polyvinilyc alcohol and polyvinyl acetate resins (PVA). Vinyl acetate is also copolymerized as a minor raw material for vinyl chloride and ethylene to form commercial polymers and acrylic fibers.1 Vinyl acetate is completely soluble in organic liquids but not in water. At 20º C a saturated solution of the monomer in water can contain between 2-2.4% of vinyl acetate, while a saturated water solution in vinyl ace- tate contains 1% of water.

A study was performed to demonstrate that commercial quality chemical products could be produced using the non-catalytic cracking of crop oils. Using this decomposition technique generates a significant concentration of C2−C10 fatty acids which can be isolated and purified as saleable co-products along with transportation fuels. A process scheme was developed and replicated in the laboratory to demonstrate this capability. Using this scheme, an acetic acid by-product was isolated and purified then reacted with ethylene derived from renewable ethanol to generate a sample of vinyl acetate monomer. This sample was assessed by a major chemical company and found to be of acceptable quality for commercial production of polyvinyl acetate and other products.

  • Vinyl Acetate
    Vinyl acetate 108-05-4 Hazard Summary Vinyl acetate is primarily used as a monomer in the production of polyvinyl acetate and polyvinyl alcohol. Acute (short-term) inhalation exposure of workers to vinyl acetate has resulted in eye irritation and upper respiratory tract irritation. Chronic (long-term) occupational exposure did not result in any severe adverse effects in workers; some instances of upper respiratory tract irritation, cough, and/or hoarseness were reported. Nasal epithelial lesions and irritation and inflammation of the respiratory tract were observed in mice and rats chronically exposed by inhalation. No information is available on the reproductive, developmental, or carcinogenic effects of vinyl acetate in humans. An increased incidence of nasal cavity tumors has been observed in rats exposed by inhalation. In one drinking water study, an increased incidence of tumors was reported in rats. EPA has not classified vinyl acetate for carcinogenicity. Please Note: The main sources of information for this fact sheet are EPA's Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) (2), which contains information on inhalation chronic toxicity of vinyl acetate and the RfC, and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry's (ATSDR's) Toxicological Profile for Vinyl Acetate. (1) Uses Vinyl acetate is primarily used as a monomer in the production of polyvinyl acetate and polyvinyl alcohol.(1) Vinyl acetate is also used as a raw material in the production of other chemicals, in adhesives, water-based paints, nonwoven textile fibers, textile sizings and finishes, paper coatings, inks, films, and lacquers. (1,2) Sources and Potential Exposure Exposure is most likely to occur in the workplace, where individuals may be occupationally exposed to vinyl acetate via inhalation or dermal contact during its manufacture or use.

  • Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate
    Ethylene-vinyl acetate From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ethylene-vinyl acetate Names Other names Poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate); Poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate); Polyethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer Identifiers CAS Registry Number 24937-78-8 Abbreviations EVA; PEVA PubChem 32742 UNII 4OKC630HS6 Properties Chemical formula (C2H4)n(C4H6O2)m Molar mass Variable Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), also known as poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate) (PEVA), is the copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate. The weight percent vinyl acetate usually varies from 10 to 40%, with the remainder being ethylene. It is a polymer that approaches elastomeric ("rubber-like") materials in softness and flexibility. This is distinct from a thermoplastic, in that the material is cross-linking, ergo difficult to recycle.[1][2][3] The material has good clarity and gloss, low-temperature toughness, stress-crack resistance, hot-melt adhesive waterproof properties, and resistance to UV radiation. EVA has a distinctive vinegar-like odor and is competitive with rubber and vinyl products in many electrical applications. Applications Hot melt adhesives, hot glue sticks, and top of the line soccer cleats are usually made from EVA, usually with additives like wax and resin. EVA is also used as a clinginess-enhancing additive in plastic wraps. Craft foam sheets are made of EVA and these foam sheets are popularly used for children's foam stickers. EVA is also used in biomedical engineering applications as a drug delivery device. The polymer is dissolved in an organic solvent (e.g., dichloromethane). Powdered drug and filler (typically an inert sugar) are added to the liquid solution and rapidly mixed to obtain a homogeneous mixture.

  • Understanding Vinyl Acetate Polymerisation Accidents
    ICHEME SYMPOSIUM SERIES NO. 144 UNDERSTANDING VINYL ACETATE POLYMERIZATION ACCIDENTS J.L Gustin and F. Laganier Rhone-Poulenc Industrialisation - 24, avenue Jean Jaures 69153 Decines - FRANCE Vinyl acetate is processed to produce polymers and copolymers used in water based paints, adhesives, paper coatings or non-woven binders and various applications at moderate temperatures. The polymerization processes used include solution, suspension and emulsion processes. Many incidents involving the runaway polymerization of Vinyl Acetate Monomers (VAM) are known. The incidents happened either in batch or semi-batch polymerization processes in connection with wrong catalyst introduction. In processes where the polymerization catalyst is dissolved in the monomers, the catalyst premix has polymerized violently in the premix vessel. In polymerization processes where the vinyl acetate monomer conversion ratio is not 100 %, storages of recycled monomers containing no polymerization inhibitor and possibly some traces of polymerization catalyst have exploded due to the VAM violent bulk polymerization. In this paper, a review of polymerization incidents is given. Radical chain polymerization kinetics are used to explain some accident features such as polymerization isothermal induction periods. Experimental results on bulk VAM polymerization obtained in DSC, Dewar flask and VSP are given. The accidental polymerization of VAM in a vessel is simulated using the WIN SIM software. The simulation is based on radical chain polymerization kinetics and thermochemical data on VAM and polymers and on specified initial and boundary conditions. Simulation of accidental polymerisations is useful to validate accident scenarios and evaluate various cause hypotheses. Introduction Vinyl acetate (VAM) is processed to produce polymers and copolymers used in water based paints adhesives, paper coatings or non-woven binders and various applications at moderate temperatures.

Vinyl acetate was identified as a high priority as it was considered to pose greatest potential for exposure to individuals in Canada and had been classified by other agencies on the basis of carcinogenicity. The substance did not meet the ecological categorization criterion for persistence, bioaccumulation or inherently toxic to aquatic organisms. Therefore, the focus of this assessment of vinyl acetate relates to human health aspects. According to the data submitted in response to section 71 of CEPA 1999, vinyl acetate is primarily imported into Canada, between ten and fifty-thousand metric tons (2006 data), for use in the industrial synthesis of polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and vinyl acetate (co)polymers such as ethylene vinyl acetate or EVA copolymer. These polymers are subsequently applied in the manufacturing of various types of products for industrial and consumer applications. Vinyl acetate monomer itself has no direct use as an end-use product nor is it added intentionally; it is only found as a residue of manufacturing polymerization processes. As PVAc is used to manufacture polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl alcohols do not contain any residues of vinyl acetate monomer.
