The analysis of rocket propellants by carbon-13 NMR
Polybutadienes, polymerized via free radical mechanism to give an average molecular weight of 3000, were analyzed with carbon-13 NMR. The relative abundance of the three types of structural units (cis-1,4, trans-1,4, and vinylic-1,2 units) was quantitatively determined. The distribution of the …

Synthesis and Characterization of Multiphase Block Copolymers: Influence of Functional Groups on Macromolecular Architecture
Low molecular weight liquid polybutadienes (1000 – 2000 g/mol) consisting of 60 mol% 1,2-polybutadiene repeating units were synthesized via anionic telomerization and conventional anionic polymerization. Maintaining the initiation and reaction temperature less than 70 °C minimized chain transfer …

Thermodynamic Interactions in Polydiene/Polyolefin Blends
… involved in this study include a series polybutadienes (PBD) with varying amounts of 1,2 and 1,4 microstructure units and 1,4-polyisoprene (1,4-PI); the corresponding polyolefins included are poly(ethyl ethylene) (PEE), polyethylene (PE), PE-co-PEE random copolymers, and …

Mechanism and Application of a Heterogeneous Catalytic Hydrogen-deuterium Exchange Reaction for Polyolefins
… polymers used in this study were hydrogenated polybutadienes (hPBDs), and a metallocene linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE). When mixed at 170 ºC with isooctane, Pt/Re-SiO2 catalyst, and gaseous deuterium, the polyolefins dissolve and undergo H/D exchange reaction at the surface of the …

Polymer Melts Investigated by Field Cycling NMR Relaxometry: From Simple Liquid to Reptation Dynamics
… approach, the dipolar correlation function of polybutadienes (PB) melts is presented and comprises - depending on M - glassy, Rouse and entanglement dynamics. The latter two relaxation regimes can be described by different power-laws, which are compared to the predictions of the tube-reptation …
