New chemistry for preparing polypropylene (PP) thermosets is described, wherein radical degradation suffered during conventional peroxide treatment is overcome using a nitroxyl additive that bears a polymerizable functional group. A small amount of 4-vinylbenzoic-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-N-oxyl (VBTEMPO) is used to trap peroxide-derived, alkyl radical intermediates during the early stages of the...
Delayed onset formulations for the peroxide-initiated crosslinking of a range of commodity polymers are described. 4-Acryloyloxy-2,2,6,6,-tetramethylpiperidin-N-oxyl (AOTEMPO) is effective for controlling the crosslinking dynamics and yields of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA), poly(ethylene-co-propylene) (EPR), and poly(ethylene-co-propylene-co-ethylidenenorbornadiene)...
Strategies for affecting the onset and yield of peroxide‐initiated polymer crosslinking formulations are demonstrated and discussed in terms of underlying reaction mechanisms. Rheological studies of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) crosslinking by dicumyl peroxide show that conventional antioxidants such as 3,5‐di‐tert‐4‐butylhydroxytoluene and 2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐1‐piperidinyloxy, as well...
