Polymerization of 1,3-butadiene with neodymium chloride tripentanolate/triisobutylaluminum binary catalyst system: effect of aging time and reaction temperature
-
Francisco Javier Enríquez-Medrano
Abstract
1,3-Butadiene monomer was polymerized at 40°C and 60°C by means of a catalyst comprising neodymium (Nd) chloride/1-pentanolate/triisobutylaluminum (TIBA) in cyclohexane as solvent; the catalyst system was aged at 5 and 30 min. The effects on conversion, catalytic activity and polymer final properties were evaluated. The obtained polybutadienes (PBs) were characterized by size exclusion chromatography (SEC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques and the results were discussed in terms of the effect of aging time and reaction temperature.
