  • Acid-Base Properties, Deactivation, and in Situ Regeneration of Condensation Catalysts for Synthesis of Methyl Methacrylate
    ACID-BASE PROPERTIES, DEACTIVATION, AND IN SITU REGENERATION OF CONDENSATION CATALYSTS FOR SYNTHESIS OF METHYL METHACRYLATE MAKARAND R. GOGATE', JAMES J. SPIVEY', AND JOSEPH R. ZOELLER2 'Research Triangle Institute, 3040 Cornwallis Road, RTP, NC 27709-2 194 2Eastman Chemical Company, Kingsport, TN, 37662-5 150 ABSTRACT Condensation reaction of a propionate with formaldehyde is a novel route for synthesis of methyl methacrylate (MMA). The reaction mechanism involves a proton abstraction from the propionate on the basic sites and activation of the aliphatic aldehyde on the acidic sites of the catalyst. The acid-base properties of ternary V-Si-P oxide catalysts and their relation to the MMA yield in the vapor phase condensation of formaldehyde with propionic anhydride has been studied for the first time. Five different V-Si-P catalysts with different atomic ratios of vanadium, silicon, and phosphorous were synthesized, characterized, and tested in a fixed-bed microreactor system. A V-Si-P 1:10:2.8 catalyst gave the maximum condensation yield of 56% based on HCHO fed at 300 "C and 2 atm and at a space velocity of 290 cc/g cateh. A parameter called the "q-ratio" has been defined to correlate the condensation yields to the acid-base properties. The correlation of q-ratio with the condensation yield shows that higher q-ratios are more desirable. The long-term deactivation studies on the V-Si-P 1: 10:2.8 catalyst at 300 "C and 2 atm and at a space velocity of 290 cc/g cat-h show that the catalyst activity drops by a factor of nearly 20 over a 180 h period.

Philipp and Li-Chen Hsu Lewis Research Center Clevelaizd, Ohio A NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration Scientific and Technical Information Office 1979 Ir SUMMARY Three methods for in situ cross-linking of water soluble polyvinyl alcohol films are presented. These cross-linked films show promise for use as battery separators in T aqueous potassium hydroxide (KOH) electrolyte. Electrical resistivities in KOH of cross-linked membranes representing the three procedures are given with a brief dis- ; cussion of the chemical mechanism involved in their preparation. Physical properties, such as mechanical strength and swelling in alkaline electrolyte, are discussed. The three cross-linking techniques entail: (l)Treating a polyvinyl alcohol membrane containing a specified amount of a dial- dehyde such as glutaraldehyde with an acid solution which catalyzes acetalization cross- linking. (2) Treating a polyvinyl alcohol film with periodic acid which cleaves the few 1,2 diol units present in polyvinyl alcohol with the formation of aldehyde groups which then I causes cross-linking via acetalation of the 1, 3 diol units. (3) Reacting a polyvinyl alcohol film with hydrogen atoms and hydroxyl radicals from irradiated water whereby cross-linking is accomplished by polymer radicals formed as a consequence of hydrogen abstraction.

Radical photo-grafting polymerization constitutes a promising technique for introducing functional groups onto surfaces of polypropylene films. According to their final use, surface grafting should be done without affecting overall mechanical properties. In this work the tensile drawing, fracture and biaxial impact response of biaxially oriented polypropylene commercial films grafted with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were investigated in terms of film orientation and surface modification. The variations of surface roughness, elastic modulus, hardness and resistance to permanent deforma- tion induced by the chemical treatment were assessed by depth sensing indentation. As a consequence of chemical modifi- cation the optical, transport and wettability properties of the films were successfully varied. The introduced chains generated a PAA-grafted layer, which is stiffer and harder than the neat polypropylene surface. Regardless of the surface changes, it was proven that this kind of grafting procedure does not detriment bulk mechanical properties of the PP film.

New L-serine derivative ligands were prepared and tested as cocatalyst in the Diels-Alder reactions between cyclopentadiene (CPD) and methyl acrylate, in the presence of several Lewis acids. The catalytic potential of the in situ formed complexes was evaluated based on the reaction yield. Bidentate serine ligands showed good ability to coordinate medium strength Lewis acids, thus boosting their catalytic activity. The synthesis of the L-serine ligands proved to be highly efficient and straightforward. 1. Introduction derivative ligands, as alternative to the usual strong Lewis acids.

Kry23-DM cross-linker (1,4,7,13,16-Pentaoxa-10,19 diazo cyclohexene icosane di methacrylate) was synthesized using Kry23 and methacryloyl chloride. The characterization of the molecules was done by FTIR, TGA, DSC, and SEM techniques. The effects of parameters such as pH, concentration, and the metal ion interaction on the heavy metal ions uptaking of SAP was investigated. It was observed that P (AA/Kry23-DM) SAP has maximum water absorption, and the absorption increases with the pH increase. Adsorption rates and sorption capacity, desorption ratios, competitive sorption (qcs), and distribution coefficient (log D) of P(AA/Kry23-DM) SAP were studied as a function of time and pH with the heavy metal ion concentration.

The membranes of PVC were synthesized by solution- casting method, where PAA was deposited as an ultrathin film onto PVC using dielectric barrier discharge at atmospheric pressure with Ar gas. The surface characteristics and chemical composition of the modified membranes were analyzed by water contact angle, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Moreover, the electrochemical properties of the membrane were investigated via ion exchange capacity for the purpose of using it as a polyelectrolyte membrane.
