Abstract

The cationic polymerization of isobutylene with weak Lewis acids, such as BBr~3~ and FeBr~3~, has been studied. These halides are unable to induce individually the polymerization in nonpolar solvents, such as heptane or toluene, or they only initiate the polymerization to low conversions in polar media, such as dichloromethane. The complex compounds, formed by interaction of both Lewis acids, initiate a fast polymerization of isobutylene, which proceeds up to high conversions. The coinitiation effect of HBr in the mixture with BBr~3~ and FeBr~3~ was also investigated. The hypothetic formation of efficient initiators and the initiation mechanism of olefin polymerization are discussed on the basis of the ionogenic action of both Lewis acids.

Cationic polymerization of styrene(St) initiated by phosphorus trichloride(PC13) in nitrobenzene was carried out at 30 °. The initial rate was proportional to [St] 2 and [PCl3]. The overall activation energy was about 10.4 kcal/mole. The rate and the degree of polymerization were enhanced with incre
