Abstract

Abstract There is disclosed a process for conveniently preparing polymers having pendant ultraviolet polymerizable groups which involves co-reacting a polymer containing the C-X moiety with a monomer having the general formula ##STR1## wherein X is OH or COOH and Y is OH when X is OH, and OR'OH when X is COOH, wherein R is hydrogen or methyl and R' is C 1 -C 6 alkyl. This process is carried out utilizing a partially solubilized hydrocarbon fraction as the azeotroping medium.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 100 words
A process for preparing an ultraviolet curable polymer having pendant acrylate or methacrylate groups which comprises co-reacting in the presence of a vinyl polymerization inhibitor and a nitrogen-oxygen sparge a polymer containing the C-OOH moiety with a monomer having the general formula ##STR14## wherein R is hydrogen or methyl, and R' is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, utilizing a partially solubilized hydrocarbon fraction as an azeotroping solvent, wherein said solvent contains up to about 15 percent, by weight, aromatics, about 40 to about 80 percent, by weight, saturated aliphatics, and about 20 to about 50 percent, by weight, cyclic aliphatics.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 100 words
A process for preparing an ultraviolet curable polymer having pendant acrylate or methacrylate groups which comprises co-reacting in the presence of a vinyl polymerization inhibitor and a nitrogen-oxygen sparge a polymer containing the C-OOH moiety with a monomer having the general formula ##STR14## wherein R is hydrogen or methyl, and R' is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, utilizing a partially solubilized hydrocarbon fraction as an azeotroping solvent, wherein said solvent contains up to about 15 percent, by weight, aromatics, about 40 to about 80 percent, by weight, saturated aliphatics, and about 20 to about 50 percent, by weight, cyclic aliphatics.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the starting polymer has a molecular weight of less than about 10,000, and contains at least about two carboxy groups per molecule.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 47 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the partially soluble hydrocarbon fraction is comprised of about 2 to about 12 percent, by weight, of aromatics, about 50 to about 60 percent, by weight, of saturated aliphatics, and about 25 to about 40 percent, by weight, of cyclic aliphatics.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the reaction is carried out in the presence of a polymerization inhibitor at about the 50-1000 parts per million of reactant level.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the nitrogen-containing oxygen sparge contains from about 2 to about 25 percent, by volume, of oxygen.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 22 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the polymer is prepared by copolymerizing alpha beta ethylenically unsaturated vinyl polymerizable monomers containing carboxy groups.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 23 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the polymer is prepared by reacting a fatty acid with a mixture of polyols and polybasic acids.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 29 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the polymer is prepared by the alcoholysis of a fatty oil and the further condensation of this product with polyols and polybasic acids.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the polymeric material is an epoxy resin ester.
