  • Acrylamide, Sodium Acrylate Polymer (Cas No
    ACRYLAMIDE/SODIUM ACRYLATE COPOLYMER (CAS NO. 25085‐02‐3) ACRYLAMIDE, SODIUM ACRYLATE POLYMER (CAS NO. 25987‐30‐8) 2‐PROPENOIC ACID, POTASSIUM SALT, POLYMER WITH 2‐PROPENAMIDE (CAS NO. 31212‐13‐2) SILICONE BASED EMULSION NEUTRALISED POLYACRYLIC BASED STABILIZER (NO CAS NO.) This group contains a sodium salt of a polymer consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or one of their simple esters and three similar polymers. They are expected to have similar environmental concerns and have consequently been assessed as a group. Information provided in this dossier is based on acrylamide/sodium acrylate copolymer (CAS No. 25085‐02‐3). This dossier on acrylamide/sodium acrylate copolymer and similar polymers presents the most critical studies pertinent to the risk assessment of these polymers in their use in drilling muds. This dossier does not represent an exhaustive or critical review of all available data. Where possible, study quality was evaluated using the Klimisch scoring system (Klimisch et al., 1997). Screening Assessment Conclusion – Acrylamide/sodium acrylate copolymer, acrylamide, sodium acrylate polymer and 2‐propenoic acid, potassium salt, polymer with 2‐propenamide are polymers of low concern. Therefore, these polymers and the other similar polymer in this group are classified as tier 1 chemicals and require a hazard assessment only. 1. BACKGROUND Acrylamide/sodium acrylate copolymer is a sodium salt of a polymer consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or one of their simple esters. Acrylates are a family of polymers which are a type of vinyl polymer. Synthetic chemicals used in the manufacture of plastics, paint formulations and other products. Acrylate copolymer is a general term for copolymers of two or more monomers consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or one of their simple esters.

ABSTRACT Thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) and thermal sampling techniques (TS) are carried out to study the relaxation behavior of PVVH, ABS and its polyblend samples. It is found that, PVVH and ABS are characterized by a dipolar relaxation peak and detected at 347 and 389 K, respectively. Relaxation map analysis (RMA) has been discussed for all samples. It is observed that, pure samples are chractaerized by one compensation point and some of polyblend materials are characterized by two compensation points. The coordinates of the compensation point are used to calculate the density of disorder (DOD) of the samples. Keywords: Relaxation, Compensation, RMA, Eyring transform, Entropy, Enthalpy, DOD. 1372 T. Fahmy, I.A. Elsayed, H.G. Abdelwahed, W.B.

The stable as-formulated UV-curable polyurethane-acrylates [stable mixtures of PETA-capped oligomer/ reactive acrylic monomer diluents without/with heptadecafluorodecyl methacrylate (PFA; 0, 6 and 9 wt%)] were formed up to 0.2 (0.043) mole (mole fraction) of TMP content in the prepolymer, while homogeneous-mixing failed at 0.3 (0.068) mole (mole fraction), in which the crosslink density in NCO-terminated urethane prepolymer was too high to enable the formation of stable mixture. This study examined the effect of TMP/PETA molar ratio and heptadecafluorodecyl methacrylate (PFA) content (wt%) on the properties of UV-cured polyurethane-acrylates as marine antifouling coating materials. The properties of UV-cured polyurethane-acrylate were found to be significantly dependent on the crosslinkable TMP/PETA ratio and PFA content.

Indeed, the bonding performance can be further improved by copolymerizing with other monomers. In this study, the effect of the adjunction of redox initiator (hydrogen peroxide–tartaric acid, H2O2–TA) on the properties of the poly (vinyl acetate-butyl acrylate) (P (VAc–BA)) emulsion adhesive was investigated. With increasing dosage, the reaction became more complete and the obtained film was more compact, as identified via SEM. The core-shell structure of the emulsion particles was confirmed via TEM. Results indicate that while the initiator content increased from 0.5 to 1.0%, a clearer core-shell structure was obtained and the bonding strength of the plywood improved from 2.34 to 2.97 MPa.

To prevent scaling, this study prepared a low surface energy nanocomposite by incorporating silicone-acrylate polymer and hydrophobically modified nano-SiO2 into the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) substrate. Through the characterization of contact angle, scanning electron microscopy and thermogravimetry, the results showed that the prepared composite has low wettability and surface free energy, excellent thermal stability and acid-base resistance. In addition, the prepared composite was compared with the commercial HDPE pipe material regarding their performance on anti-scaling by using an immersion test that places their samples into a simulated landfill leachate. It was apparent that the prepared composite shows better scaling resistance. The study further expects to provide insight into pipe materials design and manufacture, thus to improve landfill leachate collection and transportation. Keywords: Anti-scaling; surface free energy; Leachate; Pipe; silicified acrylate copolymer; HDPE 1.

  • Synthesis of an Aqueous Self-Matting Acrylic Resin with Low Gloss and High Transparency Via Controlling Surface Morphology
    polymers Article Synthesis of an Aqueous Self-Matting Acrylic Resin with Low Gloss and High Transparency via Controlling Surface Morphology Qiwen Yong 1,2,* and Caizhen Liang 3 1 Chemical Synthesis and Pollution Control Key Laboratory of Sichuan Province, China West Normal University, Nanchong 637002, China 2 Institute of Applied Chemistry, China West Normal University, Nanchong 637002, China 3 State Key Laboratory of Applied Microbiology Southern China, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Microbial Culture Collection and Application, Guangdong Institute of Microbiology, Guangzhou 510070, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-0817-2568637 Received: 25 January 2019; Accepted: 11 February 2019; Published: 13 February 2019 Abstract: This paper reports on a novel, film-forming acrylic polymer resin that exhibits low-gloss surface and high transparency via controlling film morphology at sub-micron roughness levels. Such microstructure is controlled by means of the copolymerization process increasing the allyl methacrylate (AMA) crosslinker content from 0 to 0.4 wt %. This acrylic resin makes it possible to avoid high loadings of matting agents, while also having good abrasion resistance and soft-touch feeling. Gloss levels of as low as 4 units at 60◦ incident angle and light transmittance of up to 85% have been achieved. The chemical structure of the aqueous acrylic resin was characterized by ATR-FTIR and NMR spectroscopy. The film morphology and surface roughness were measured by SEM and AFM analysis. The emulsion particle morphology and glass transition temperature were obtained by TEM and DSC, respectively. The effects of the crosslinker content on the light transmittance, glass transition temperature, and thermal degradation stability were also discussed in detail.
