A Diels Alder adduct is mixed with a polyolefin or vinyl polymer substrate and thermally decomposed to form an ethylenically unsaturated monomer which grafts onto the polymer substrate. The monomer conforms generally to the formula R₁R₂C=CHR₃ in which R₁ is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl, R₂ is hydrogen, methyl, ethyl or vinyl and R₃ is inter alia hydroxyl, carboxyl, cyano, formyl, acetyl or propanoyl. The Diels Alder adduct substantially decomposes at a temperature of 120°C to 300°C, but does not substantially decompose below about 120°C. The polymer substrate is preferably high-density polyethylene, low density polyethylene, linear low density polyethylene, ethylene-propylene rubber, propylene, polystyrene or styrene-butadiene block copolymers. The grafting is induced by, for example, heat, catalyst and/or high shear conditions. Optionally, the polymer mixture is devolatilized to removed any unreacted Diels Alder adduct and decomposition products thereof.
将 Diels Alder 加合物与聚烯烃或乙烯基聚合物基材混合并热分解,形成乙烯基不饱和单体,接枝到聚合物基材上。单体一般符合式 R₁R₂C=CHR₃,其中 R₁ 是氢、甲基或乙基,R₂ 是氢、甲基、乙基或乙烯基,R₃ 除其他外是羟基、羧基、氰基、甲酰基、乙酰基或丙酰基。Diels Alder 加合物在 120°C 至 300°C 的温度下基本分解,但在 120°C 以下不会基本分解。聚合物基材最好是高密度聚乙烯、低密度聚乙烯、线性低密度聚乙烯、乙烯-丙烯橡胶、丙烯、聚苯乙烯或丁苯嵌段共聚物。接枝可通过加热、催化剂和/或高剪切条件等方式进行。可选择对聚合物混合物进行脱溶剂处理,以去除任何未反应的 Diels Alder 加合物及其分解产物。
