Abstract

In this study, an electron-acceptor monomer Fumaronitrile (FN), and 3 electron-donor monomers; Trans-Anethole (ANE), Vinyl-iso-butylether (VIBE) and Trans-Stilbene (Stb) were polymerized by free radical polymerization and charge transfer complex (CTC) mechanism. Fumaronitrile content ratio, FT-IR, H-NMR, average molar weight, thermal and mechanical analyzes of the obtained FN-ANE-VIBE-Stb quaterpolymer were performed. The synthesized quaterpolymer was obtained in resin form. The rate of fumaronitrile in the chain was determined as approximately 50%. The thermal and mechanical properties of the obtained quaterpolymer were better than some common polymers.

FUMARONİTRİL İÇEREN KUATERPOLİMER SENTEZİ YAPISAL VE TERMOMEKANİK ÖZELLİKLERİN BELİRLENMESİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, elektron alıcı bir monomer olan Fumaronitril (FN) ile elektron verici 3 monomer; Trans-Anethol (ANE), Vinil-izo-bütileter (VIBE) ve Trans-Stilben (Stb), serbest radikal polimerleşmesi ve yük transfer kompleksi (CTC) mekanizması üzerinden polimerleştirilmiştir. Elde edilen FN-ANE-VIBE-Stb kuaterpolimerinin, monomer içerik oranı, FT-IR, H-NMR, ortalama mol kütlesi, ısısal ve mekanik analizleri yapılmıştır. Sentezlenen kuaterpolimer reçine şeklinde elde edilebilmiştir. Zincirde bulunan fumaronitril oranı yaklaşık %50 olarak belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen kuaterpolimerin ısısal ve mekanik özelliklerinin diğer bazı yaygın polimerlere göre daha iyi olduğu görüldü.
