Polybutylacrylate (PBA)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PM MA) core-shell elastic particles (CSEP), whose rubbery core diameterranged from 0.08 μm to 1.38 μm, were synthesized by using conventional emulsion polymerization, multi-step emulsion polymerization, and soapless polymerization. Allyl methacylate (ALMA) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) were selected as crosslinking reagents for core polymerization. Methacrylic acid (MAA) was used as functional co-monomer with methyl methacrylate as shell component. The content of vinyl groups in PBA rubbery core increased with the amount of crosslinking reagents. The core-shell ratio affected great on the morphology of the complex particles. Furthermore, the amounts of carboxyl on the surface of core-shell particles, copolymerized with acrylic acid, were determined by potentiometric titration. Results showed that methylacrylic acid was distributed mostly on the surface of particles. 相似文献
In Parts I & II of this Series, we illustrated the process research studies on a new, trendsetting indirect syngas conversion process, the direct, one-step LPDMEtm process, which is now a shining example of “dual catalysis” or “cooperative/adaptive” catalysis and also of thermodynamic/kinetic coupling in series-parallel reactions.
In this part III, we take a look at several processes on the research and pilot scale that employ methanol and DME as chemical feedstocks for further conversion to value-added chemicals. A most rational and cogent argument for the use of DME as a feedstock is that the unit production cost of DME from the direct, one-step DME processes, most notably the LPDMEtm process, can be lower than methanol (from LPMeOHtm), on a methanol-equivalent basis. DME also has inherently more benign physical and chemical properties, contains 1 less mole of water, and results in a substantially similar product distribution, as methanol, for the methanol-to-gasoline (MTG) and methanol-to-olefins (MTO) process. DME can also be converted to several other important chemicals; some of these include dimethoxymethane, dimethoxyethane, methylal, formaldehyde, acetic acid, methyl acetate, and polyoxymethylene ethers. In this report, we offer a critical assessment of the current status of these processes and a projected path to commercialization. Considering the trendsetting and impactful nature of DME as a chemical entity and as a chemical feedstock, along with its “free” cost, we are of the opinion that the future of DME, and of its chemical conversions, as so-called “DME economy”, is very bright. 相似文献
Non-ionic maleate surfmer (M1) was prepared via ring opening reaction of maleic anhydride with hexanol followed by esterfaction with polyethylene glycol. The prepared surfmer was homo-polymerized and copolymerized with methyl methacrylate (M2) at different conditions using TiO2 and V2O5 as catalysts in presence of O2 or N2. The chemical structure of the prepared surfmer, homo-polymer and copolymer were confirmed by FT-IR, 13C and 1H NMR. The molecular weights of the prepared polymers were measured using Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) and their thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) was determined. TGA indicated a higher thermal stability for the copolymers M1M2TN and M1M2VO relative to the pure polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). The interfacial tension for the prepared surfmer and the copolymer was measured. The optimum conditions which resulted in 64.2% and 63.8% conversion were 20% w/w TiO2 in N2 and 10% w/w V2O5 in O2 at 80?°C for 4?h with M1/M2 molar ratio of 1:1. 相似文献
The purpose of this study was to characterise and compare the nutritional value of Portuguese Carnalentejana-PDO beef, obtained from Alentejana purebred bullocks reared in a semi-extensive system, with the meat from Alentejana×Charolais crossbred bullocks produced in a conventional intensive concentrate-based system. In addition, seasonal changes in Carnalentejana-PDO beef quality were assessed, by analysing meat samples from animals slaughtered in early autumn and late spring. The results showed that beef-PDO has different intramuscular fat characteristics in comparison with meat from crossbred bullocks fed intensively with concentrate. However, the finishing period of Alentejana purebred bullocks with concentrate seems to attenuate most of the typical grass-fed characteristics of meat fat. Nevertheless, from a human nutrition perspective, Carnalentejana-PDO beef seems to be healthier than that from intensively reared animals since it has a lower n-6/n-3 ratio, although always above the recommended guidelines for human diet, and higher proportions of c9,t11 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomer and total CLA relative to saturated fatty acids plus total cholesterol (CLA/SFA+CHR). Furthermore, no seasonal variation in the nutritional quality of beef-PDO was apparent. Taken together, the data indicate that Carnalentejana-PDO beef is of greater nutritional value than intensively produced beef from crossbred bullocks throughout the year. 相似文献
Summary: The microstructure of the polymer synthesized by seeded semicontinuous emulsion copolymerization of AAEMA was investigated. It was found that the neutralization of the latexes with ammonia to protect acetoacetoxy functionality against hydrolysis during storage had a remarkable effect on the gel content. A base catalyzed Michael addition reaction between acetoacetoxy groups and terminal double bond (TDB) is proposed as responsible for the chain precrosslinking observed. The presence of TDB in the latexes was demonstrated by means of 1H NMR. Moreover, the chain precrosslinking affected the subsequent crosslinking reaction of the latex with diamines hindering chain interdiffusion and yielding poorer mechanical properties.
