AI Article Synopsis

  • The radical homopolymerization of 2-trifluoromethacrylic acid (MAF) in water using Na2S2O8 produced unique water-soluble surfactants.
  • The decomposition of these surfactants was studied to understand their stability and behavior.
  • The study found that the ratio of the square of the propagation rate constant to the termination rate constant for MAF was 4 × 10(-3) l mol(-1) s(-1) at 80 °C.

Article Abstract

The radical homopolymerisation of 2-trifluoromethacrylic acid (MAF) initiated by Na2S2O8 in water, under the influence of pH, led to original water soluble surfactants, the decomposition of which was investigated. The value of the square of the propagation rate constant to the termination rate constant, kp(2)/kte, of MAF was 4 × 10(-3) l mol(-1) s(-1) at 80 °C.

Cross-Linked Imidazolium Salts as Scavengers for Palladium.

Five imidazolium-based materials have been synthesised and used for the first time as palladium scavengers. Radical reactions of suitable bis-vinylimidazolium salts led to a series of insoluble materials through homo-polymerisation, immobilisation with a 3-mercaptopropyl-modified silica gel or co-polymerisation with ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate. These materials were screened as palladium scavengers with a set of palladium(0) and palladium(II) compounds in different solvents and at different starting amounts of palladium.
