Melt Derived Blocky Copolyesters: New Design Features for Polycondensation
摘要:
Melt polycondensation was utilized to chain extend polytrimethylene terephthalate with 1,3-propanediol based fluorinated isophthalic oligomers, resulting in copolymers with retained microstructure. Our findings point toward the formation of a blocky type copolymer. In general, formation of block or segmented copolymers from melt derived polycondensation is a very challenging task due to the propensity for adverse randomization reactions. Supported by size exclusion chromatography, our copolymers are fully chain extended, with no presence of the initial components. Furthermore, thermal differential scanning calorimetry has confirmed that the melt characteristics of the starting components are retained. In addition, interaction polymer chromatography and sequence distribution analysis using C-13 NMR supports a blocky backbone microstructure. Seemingly, intermolecular chain end condensation occurs, whereas transesterification is dormant. While these findings open up new doors for polymer/materials development, we are particularly interested in these structures as melt additives to address oil repellency of polyester blends. When used in blends these blocky additives show an improvement in oil repellency compared with random additives of identical molar composition, i.e., they are more fluorine efficient.
Disclosed are polyesters, particularly poly(trimethylene terephthalate), comprising fluorovinylether functionalized aromatic repeat units, and methods to make the polyester polymers. The polymers are useful for imparting soil resistance to polyesters, particularly in the form of fibers, fabrics, and carpets.
The invention is directed to polyaramid polymers, comprising repeat units of the condensation product of a fluorovinylether functionalized aromatic diacid chloride and an aromatic diamine, and methods to make said polyaramid polymers. The polymers of this invention are useful as high strength fibers or solution cast films with reduced surface susceptibility to oil.
Provided are films made from copolyesters having improved oil repellency as compared to conventional copolyesters. The copolyesters are derived from certain perfluorinated monomers.

Disclosed are fluorovinyl ether functionalized aromatic diesters and derivatives thereof. The compounds disclosed have utility as functionalized monomers and comonomers in polyesters, polyamides, and the like. It has been found that incorporation of the monomers into polymers provides improved soil resistance to shaped articles produced from the polymers.
