Abstract
The optimum conditions for crosslinking rigid poly(vinyl chloride) with trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) and peroxide have been examined. The extent of crosslinking was measured by determining gel content by Soxhlet extraction in tetrahydrofuran. Mechanical properties were measured at 130Β°C and dynamic viscoelastic measurements were carried out to detect changes in the glass transition temperature (T~g~). It was found that 15 phr of TMPTMA and 0.3 phr of peroxide were optimum concentrations for maximizing the extent of crosslinking, tensile strength, and T~g~. The lower molding temperature of 170Β°C was preferred to minimize thermal degradation. Β© 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 103: 2904β2909, 2007

A crosslinking system consisting of 1,1-di-t-butylperoxy-3,3,5-trimethyl cyclohexane peroxide and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) has been used to introduce crosslinks into unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC). The influence of the concentration of both reagents has been investigated
The mechanism of the electron irradiation crosslinking of poly(viny1 chloride) (PVC) with polyfunctional acrylic monomers has been investigated as Bart of a program to develop an insulation for distributing-frame wire. These monomers were found to undergo rapid polymerization to form a rigid, three-
Crosslinked poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) was obtained by using bismaleic compound (BMC). Styrene, as auxiliary crosslinker, can markedly promote the crosslinking course. After having carefully studied the gelling behavior of PVC in crosslinking, and the reactivity of styrene and BMC with PVC, the cro
The grafting of a mercaptoalkyltrialkoxysilane onto an activated poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) paste resin with subsequent hydrolytic crosslinking has been studied. The resins were prepared by copolymerization of vinyl chloride monomer and glycidylmethacrylate (GMA). The grafting of a mercaptosilane wa
