Abstract

Abstract A process for the production of carbonaceous graft polymers having a high rate of grafting, characterized in that the polymerization is carried out by bringing a carbonaceous material and a vinylic compound dispersed in an aqueous medium into contact with sulfur dioxide. According to this process, the polymerization reaction can be carried out at a high rate of polymerization without necessity of heating and any expensive organic solvent.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 64 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PROTECTION OF A CARBONACEOUS GRAFT POLYMER HAVING A HIGH RATE OFF GRAFTING, COMPRISING SEPARATELY DISPERSING A FINELY DIVIDED CARBONACEOUS MATERIAL AND AT LEAST ONE VINYL MONOMER IN AN AQUEOUS MEDIUM AND INITIATING GRAFT POLYMERIZATION OF SAID MONOMER WITH SAID MATERIAL WHILE DISPERSED IN SAID MDIUM WITH AN INITIATOR CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF SULFUR DIOXIDE AND RECOVERING THE ESULTANT CARBONACEOUS GRAFT POLYMER.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 64 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PROTECTION OF A CARBONACEOUS GRAFT POLYMER HAVING A HIGH RATE OFF GRAFTING, COMPRISING SEPARATELY DISPERSING A FINELY DIVIDED CARBONACEOUS MATERIAL AND AT LEAST ONE VINYL MONOMER IN AN AQUEOUS MEDIUM AND INITIATING GRAFT POLYMERIZATION OF SAID MONOMER WITH SAID MATERIAL WHILE DISPERSED IN SAID MDIUM WITH AN INITIATOR CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF SULFUR DIOXIDE AND RECOVERING THE ESULTANT CARBONACEOUS GRAFT POLYMER.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the carbonaceous material is selected from carbon black, coke, active carbon and graphite.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the vinyl monomer is selected from vinyl halides, vinyl esters, unsaturated fatty acids and esters thereof, styrene and substituted styrenes, divinyl compounds and dienes.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the aqueous medium is water.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 25 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the graft polymerization is carried out at a temperature ranging from about room temperature up to about 60*C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein sulfur dioxide is added to said medium as a gas, an aqueous solution or an acidic salt.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said carbonaceous material is dispersed in an amount of about 1-100 parts and said monomer in an amount of about 0.1-100 parts per 100 parts of said medium, all by weight.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 26 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the amount of said sulfur dioxide is in the range of about 0.001-10% by weight of such vinyl monomer.
