Solution Polymerization of 2-Amino-4-N-methylanilino-6-isopropeny1-1, 3, 5-triazine

Abstract

The solution polymerization of 2-amino-4-N-methylanilino-6-isopropenyl-1, 3, 5-triazine (AMIT) was carried out at 50-80°C in dimethyl sulfoxide, using azobisisobutyronitrile as an initiator. The equibrium monomer concentrations ([M]e) were 0.067, 0.114, and 0.187 mol/l at 60, 70, and 80°C respectively. The heat of polymerization (ΔHp) and entropy of polymerization (ΔSp0) of AMIT derived from [M]e were-12.0 and -30.7 cal/Kmol, respectively. On the assumption of the depolymerization the rate of polymerization was expressed as[formula Omitted]. © 1975, The Society of Polymer Science, Japan. All rights reserved.
