Aim: to Prepare Block Copolymers of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) and Styrene
Conducting A Reversible-Deactivation Radical Polymerization (RDRP) Aim: To Prepare Block Copolymers of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) and Styrene. Polymers are ubiquitous in the modern world. They provide tremendous value because the chemical and physical properties of these materials are determined by the monomers that are used to put them together. One of the most powerful methods to construct polymers is radical-chain polymerization and this method is used in the commercial synthesis of polymers everyday. Methyl methacrylate is polymerized to form poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) which is also known as acrylic glass or Plexiglas (about 2 billion pounds per year in the US). This material is lightweight, strong and durable. The polymer chains are rigid due to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom in the polymer backbone and they have excellent optical clarity. As a consequence, these materials are used in aircraft windows, glasses, skylights, signs and displays. Polystyrene (PS), which can also be synthesized from radical chain polymerization, has found extensive use as a material (also approximately 2 billion pounds per year in the US). One of the forms of PS, Styrofoam, is used extensively to make disposable cups, thermal insulation, and cushion for packaging. Scheme 1. Radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate or styrene. While there are extensive uses for these polymers, when synthesizing any material using a free-radical polymerization, samples are obtained with limited control over molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. New methods have been developed directly at Carnegie Mellon (https://www.cmu.edu/maty/) which lead to improved control in this process. This new method is a reversible-deactivation of the polymerization reaction where highly reactive radicals toggle back and forth between an active state, where the polymer chain is growing, and a dormant state, where the polymer chain is capped (Scheme 2).

Polymerization • Give the names • Write the structural formula • Write all isomeric compounds • The processes explanation 1. NOMENCLATURE OF UNSATURATED HYDROCARBONS ALKENE NOMENCLATURE We give alkenes IUPAC names by replacing the -ane ending of the corresponding alkane with -ene . The two simplest alkenes are ethene and propene. Both are also well known by their common names ethylene and propylene. Ethylene is an acceptable synonym for ethene in the IUPAC system. Propylene, isobutylene, and other common names ending in -ylene are not acceptable IUPAC names. 1. The longest continuous chain that includes the double bond forms the base name of the alkene. 2. Chain is numbered in the direction that gives the doubly bonded carbons their lower numbers. 3. The locant (or numerical position) of only one of the doubly bonded carbons is specified in the name; it is understood that the other doubly bonded carbon must follow in sequence. 4. Carbon-carbon double bonds take precedence over alkyl groups and halogens in determining the main carbon chain and the direction in which it is numbered. 5. The common names of certain frequently encountered alkyl groups, such as isopropyl and tert-butyl, are acceptable in the IUPAC system. Three alkenyl groups--vinyl, allyl, and isopropenyl--are treated the same way: 6. When a CH 2 group is doubly bonded to a ring, the prefix methylene is added to the name of the ring: 7. Cycloalkenes and their derivatives are named by adapting cycloalkane terminology to the principles of alkene nomenclature: No locants are needed in the absence of substituents; it is understood that the double bond connects C-1 and C 2.

Controlled Free Radical Polymerization of Styrene Initiated by a [BPO-Polystyrene-(4-Acetamido-TEMPO)] Macroinitiator
Die Angewandte Makromolekulare Chemie 265 (1999) 69–74 (Nr. 4630) 69 Controlled free radical polymerization of styrene initiated by a [BPO-polystyrene-(4-acetamido-TEMPO)] macroinitiator Chang Hun Han, So¨ren Butz, Gudrun Schmidt-Naake* Institut fu¨r Technische Chemie, TU Clausthal, Erzstr. 18, 38678 Clausthal-Zellerfeld, Germany (Received 15 October 1998) SUMMARY: The bulk polymerization of styrene at 1258C was studied using a [BPO-polystyrene-(4-acet- amido-TEMPO)] macroinitiator synthesized by a styrene polymerization in the presence of 4-acetamido- 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (4-acetamido-TEMPO) and benzoyl peroxide (BPO). The rates of poly- merization were independent of the initial macroinitiator concentration and they were very similar to that for the thermal autopolymerization of styrene. Additionally, different types of N-oxyls did not have any effect on the polymerization rate. The number-average molecular weights (Mn) of the obtained polymers agreed very well with theoretical predictions, deviations were observed only at low macroinitiator concentrations. Increasing macroinitiator concentrations resulted in lower magnitudes of the growing molecular weights and reduced polydispersities (Mw/Mn) at the initial stage of the polymerization. The concentration of the polymer chains was calculated, and it was recognized that the concentration of polymer chains increased during the polymerization as a result of an additional radical formation due to the thermal self-initiation of styrene. This thermal self-initiation could be proved qualitatively by the addition of N-oxyl to a macroinitiator polymeriza- tion system. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG: Ausgehend von [BPO-Polystyrol-(4-Acetamido-TEMPO)]-Makroinitiatoren wurde die Substanzpolymerisation von Styrol bei 1258C untersucht. Die Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit war unabha¨ngig von der eingesetzten Makroinitiator-Konzentration und stimmte im Rahmen der Meß- genauigkeit mit der der thermisch initiierten Autopolymerisation von Styrol u¨berein.

Free Radical Polymerization
Free Radical Polymerization Reference: Aspen Polymers: Unit Operations and Reaction Models, Aspen Technology, Inc., 2013. 1. Introduction The free-radical bulk/solution polymerization model is applicable to bulk and solution polymerization processes. Some examples of applicable polymers are: - General purpose polystyrene - Made by polymerization of styrene monomer with or without solvent fed continuously to reactor. - High impact polystyrene - Made by polymerization of an unsaturated rubber dissolved in styrene in a solution process. Also produced in suspension processes. - Poly(vinyl chloride) - Produced in bulk polymerization using monomer soluble free radical initiators. Most of the homopolymers and copolymers of vinyl chloride, however, are produced by suspension polymerization. - Poly(vinyl acetate) - Produced industrially by the polymerization of vinyl acetate in bulk or solution processes. Also produced in suspension and emulsion processes. Both batch and continuous processes are used. - Poly(methyl methacrylate) - The vast majority of commercially prepared acrylic polymers and methacrylic polymers are copolymers. Commercially they are prepared by solution polymerization. They are also produced by emulsion and suspension polymerization. - Low density polyethylene - Made by high pressure, free radical processes in either a tubular reactor or a stirred autoclave. Typical commercial processes include staged compression, initiator injection, partial conversion of ethylene to polymer, separation of ethylene from polymer, extrusion of molten polymer, and cooling of ethylene. Bulk and solution polymerization processes are characterized by the fact that the reactions proceed in a single phase. Typically, the monomers are fed to a reactor with or without a solvent. A small amount of initiator is also fed. At the reaction temperature, the initiator decomposes to form radicals that initiate the polymerization reactions.

Effect of Chain Transfer to Polymer in Conventional and Living Emulsion Polymerization Process
processes Article Effect of Chain Transfer to Polymer in Conventional and Living Emulsion Polymerization Process Hidetaka Tobita ID Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Fukui, 3-9-1 Bunkyo, Fukui 910-8507, Japan; [email protected]; Tel.: +81-776-27-8767 Received: 28 December 2017; Accepted: 5 February 2018; Published: 7 February 2018 Abstract: Emulsion polymerization process provides a unique polymerization locus that has a conﬁned tiny space with a higher polymer concentration, compared with the corresponding bulk polymerization, especially for the ab initio emulsion polymerization. Assuming the ideal polymerization kinetics and a constant polymer/monomer ratio, the effect of such a unique reaction environment is explored for both conventional and living free-radical polymerization (FRP), which involves chain transfer to the polymer, forming polymers with long-chain branches. Monte Carlo simulation is applied to investigate detailed branched polymer architecture, including 2 the mean-square radius of gyration of each polymer molecule, <s >0. The conventional FRP shows a very broad molecular weight distribution (MWD), with the high molecular weight region conforming to the power law distribution. The MWD is much broader than the random branched 2 polymers, having the same primary chain length distribution. The expected <s >0 for a given MW is much smaller than the random branched polymers. On the other hand, the living FRP shows a much narrower MWD compared with the corresponding random branched polymers. Interestingly, 2 the expected <s >0 for a given MW is essentially the same as that for the random branched polymers. Emulsion polymerization process affects branched polymer architecture quite differently for the conventional and living FRP.

We will explore the chemical mechanisms that create polymers as well as how polymerization methods affect the final molecular structure of the polymer. We will look at the effect of the chemical structure of monomers, catalysts, radicals, and solvents on polymeric materials. Finally, we will apply our molecular understanding to the real world problem of producing polymers on a commercial scale. 2.2 Thermoplastics and Thermosets Thermoplastics consist of linear or lightly branched chains that can slide past one another under the influence of temperature and pressure. These polymers flow at high temperatures, allowing us to mold them into useful products. When we heat and/or shear thermoplastic polymers, we can change their shape. For example, polyethylene milk containers can be reprocessed back into the melt stage and then formed into a park bench.We fi nd thermoplastics in a wide variety of commonly used items, such as pantyhose (polyamide), compact disks (polycarbonate), grocery bags (polyethylene), house siding (polyvinyl chloride), gas and water pipes (polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, and polypropylene), and medical intravenous fluid bags (polyvinyl chloride). Thermosets consist of a network of interconnected chains whose positions are fi xed relative to their neighbors.

Living/Controlled Radical Polymerizations in Dispersed Phase Systems
Prog. Polym. Sci. 27 *2002) 1039±1067 www.elsevier.com/locate/ppolysci Living/controlled radical polymerizations in dispersed phase systems Michael F. Cunningham* Department of Chemical Engineering, Queen's University, Kingston, Ont., Canada K7L 3N6 Received 5 November 2001; revised 25 January 2002; accepted 28 January 2002 Abstract Living/controlled radical polymerization provides a route to synthesizing materials with designed microstruc- ture and narrow molecular weight distributions. A variety of living radical systems have been developed in recent years, and are based on either reversible termination *SFRP, ATRP) or reversible transfer mechanisms *RAFT, degenerative transfer). Application of living radical polymerization to heterogeneous systems such as emulsion and miniemulsion polymerization may provide process and economic advantages over the traditional homoge- neous bulk and solution polymerizations. However, adaptation of living radical chemistry to aqueous dispersions poses several challenges relating to maintaining effective control over the growth of living chains. These chal- lenges originate from having two or even three phases in the reaction mixture, which can lead to issues related to phase partitioning of the controlling agent, transport of the controlling agent between phases, the role of aqueous phase kinetics, and the phenomena of particle nucleation and colloidal stability. This review examines recent progress in this area, with an emphasis on unresolved issues and future opportunities. q 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
