Initiation of complex-radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of metallocenes

Abstract: The initiation of radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of benzoyl perox ide-metallocene (Cp 2 Fe, Cp 2 ZrCl 2 , and Cp 2 TiCl 2 ; (C 5 Me 5 ) 2 Fe, (C 5 Me 5 ) 2 ZrCl 2 , and (AcC 5 H 4 )(C 5 H 5 )Fe) systems is studied. It is shown that a metallocene affects the rate of initiation and the initial rate of polymer ization. On the basis of quantum chemical calculations, a new mechanism of the initiation reaction may be advanced: Namely, the decomposition of benzoyl peroxide proceeds via … Show more

“…The process of methyl methacrylate bulk polymerization runs in the presence of benzoyl peroxide, and ferrocene is characterized by some interactions between the components of the mixture . In addition to the typical reactions for free radical polymerization (initiation, chain propagation, chain termination, and chain transfer), there are also the following interactions between (1) ferrocene and benzoyl peroxide, (2) ferrocene and monomer, and (3) ferrocene and poly(methyl methacrylate) macroradicals; and the reaction of coordination sites formation and chain propagation on these active sites (reactions 1–9, Scheme ; the structures are indicated in a form suitable for further kinetics modeling). However this scheme did not contain the reactions of adduct Ad ( n, z ) with poly(methyl methacrylate) macroradicals and further transformations of the product formed, that is why these reactions were modeled in this work.…”

“…However this scheme did not contain the reactions of adduct Ad ( n, z ) with poly(methyl methacrylate) macroradicals and further transformations of the product formed, that is why these reactions were modeled in this work. Finally, the scheme from other works was supplemented with following reactions 10–14 (Scheme ).…”
