The B. F. Goodrich Company - Akron OH

International Classification:

B32B 904

US Classification:

428447

Abstract:

Novel polysiloxane-silazane preceramic polymer compositions are prepared by the controlled hydrolysis polymerization of a trimer or tetramer of a monomer of the structure ##STR1## wherein R. sup. 1, R. sup. 2, R. sup. 3, and R. sup. 4 are independently alkyl groups containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms R. sup. a, R. sup. b, R. sup. c, and R. sup. d are independently alkenyl or alkyl groups containing from 2 to 6 carbon atoms with the proviso that at least one of R. sup. a, R. sup. b, R. sup. c, or R. sup. d group is an alkenyl group. Another useful composition is made by reacting the above mentioned monomers with alkoxide or aryloxide compounds of the elements Al, B, Zr, Ti, Si, Hf, and Y in the presence of water to make polysilazoxane polymers modified with said alkoxides or aryloxide compounds. Another useful composition is made by reacting the polysiloxane-silazane polymer with vinyl or allyl substituted compounds of boron or silicon or both. These modified polysiloxane-silazane polymers have increased char yields and can develop other refractory phases due to the presence of other metals.

International Classification:

B05D 512

US Classification:

427121

Abstract:

A process is provided for forming an electrically conductive polymer of a pyrrole monomer, optionally substituted at the 3- and 4- positions. The process comprises dispersing a polymerization initiator selected from the group consisting of anhydrous halides of iron, cobalt or nickel (Group VIII metal) in an anhydrous liquid reaction medium and, adding essentially pure pyrrole monomer, or a solution of the monomer in the liquid at a temperature in the range from about -20. degree. C. to below about the boiling point of the solution. The pyrrole polymer so formed is a Group VIII metal halide counterion, and a conductor having a conductivity in the range from about 1 to about 150 ohm. sup. -1 cm. sup. -1 ("S/cm" for brevity), or a semiconductor having a conductivity in the range from about 10. sup. -3 to about 1 S/cm, depending upon the particular structure of the monomer, the ratio of the initiator to pyrrole monomer, and the molecular weight of the polymer formed.

Abstract:

A polymeric flame retardant composition comprises low melting temperature phosphate-sulfate glass compositions in an amount of from about 10 to about 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said polymer. Desirably, the polymer is a halogen-containing polymer. The phosphate-sulfate combination has been found to produce synergistic results.

Abstract:

The hydrolytic polycondensation of a monomer of ##STR1## wherein R. sup. 1, R. sup. 2, R. sup. 3, and R. sup. 4 are independently alkyl groups containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R. sup. a, R. sup. b, R. sup. c, and R. sup. d are independently alkenyl or alkyl groups containing from 2 to 6 carbon atoms with the proviso that at least one of R. sup. a, R. sup. b, R. sup. c, or R. sup. d group is an alkenyl group; can be carried out directly in the presence of a phenolic resin. This in situ polymerization reaction results in the formation of a new family of polysilazoxane-modified phenolic resins. Modified phenolic resins may also be prepared by the controlled hydrolysis of the above monomers in the presence of initiators. The polysilazoxane so formed is blended into a phenolic resin. The organic soluble thermosetting resins exhibit synergistic char yields of 63 to 80 wt. % (1500. degree. C. /N. sub. 2).
