Polymerization Vinyl Acetate

Thus the type of emulsion polymerization process batch semi continuous or.

Polymerization vinyl acetate.

All polymerization reactions were performed using a facile approach using 15 ml glass pressure tubes with. Polyvinyl acetate a synthetic resin prepared by the polymerization of vinyl acetate. In the present report the madix polymerization of vinyl acetate in bulk or solution polymerization dichloromethane dcm or ethyl acetate was investigated in order to optimize monomer conversion and achieve molecular weight control. Vinyl acetate is the acetate ester of vinyl alcohol.

The major industrial route involves the reaction of ethylene and acetic acid with oxygen in the presence of a palladium catalyst. Therefore vinyl acetate runaway polymerization incidents are very serious and they occur with a high frequency. Reacts with air or water to produces peroxides that initiate explosively violent polymerization. Vinyl acetate c4h6o2 cid 7904 structure chemical names physical and chemical properties classification patents literature biological activities safety.

Reacts with hydrogen peroxide to form explosive peracetic acid. Learn more about polyvinyl acetate in this article. The controlled polymerization was photoresponsive. Since vinyl alcohol is highly unstable with respect to acetaldehyde the preparation of vinyl acetate is more complex than the synthesis of other acetate esters.

The photoinduced polymerization of vinyl acetate vac proceeded very fast even at 40 c with a catalytic amount of mn 2 co 10 0 025 mol of vac or 5 0 mol of r i and completed within a few hours to give the polymers with controlled molecular weights up to 10 5. Polyvinyl acetate adhesives pvac polyvinyl acetate latex known as white latex is made of vinyl acetate monomer water dispersing agent polymerization starter and other auxiliary materials mixed together through emulsion polymerization. The emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate possesses the rather typical properties in comparison the emulsion polymerizations of the comonomers. That is the.

The polymerization of vinyl acetate is probably the second most frequent cause of runaway reaction accidents in the chemical industry after the phenol formaldehyde runaway reaction. It is also used in adhesives. Vinyl acetate has high water solubility a high monomer polymer swelling ratio and a high chain transfer constant. Applications edit as an emulsion in water pvac emulsions are used as adhesives for porous materials particularly for wood paper and cloth and as a consolidant for porous building stone in.

Polyvinyl acetate is prepared by the polymerization of vinyl acetate monomer free radical vinyl polymerization of the monomer vinyl acetate.
