An infrared method based on the 5.88 μ absorption was developed for the analysis of ethylidenenorbornene in EPDM. The method was calibrated using a VPC analysis for unreacted monomer and by the addition of dichlorocarbene followed by an elemental analysis for chlorine. A check by NMR on a selected sample showed good agreement with the other methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
