Embodiment 1

[0264] In this example, 100 g of EPDM was dissolved in 1500 mL of toluene to prepare a stock solution of EPDM. Into the autoclave reactor (0.5L) was added 300mL of the above EPDM solution, 10g of isotactic polypropylene, 0.4g of zinc oxide (ZnO) and 0.4g of stannous chloride (SnCl 2 ). The reactor was purged with nitrogen and pressurized with 0.55 MPa (approximately 80 psi) nitrogen. The reactor was heated to 180°C with stirring. After 5 minutes at 180°C, a toluene solution of 2.5 g of phenolic resin in 10 mL of toluene was injected into the reactor. The reactor temperature was raised to 200°C and the reaction was continued at 200°C for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the reactor was cooled to ambient temperature and vented. The resulting polymer was precipitated by adding 500 mL of isopropanol, washed with 200 mL of isopropanol, and dried in a vacuum oven at 60°C for 16 hours.

Embodiment 2

[0266]In this example, 100 g of EPDM was dissolved in 1500 mL of hexane to prepare a stock solution of EPDM. Into an autoclave reactor (0.5 L) was added 300 mL of the above EPDM solution, 15 g isotactic polypropylene, 0.4 g zinc oxide (ZnO) and 0.5 g stannous chloride dihydrate (SnCl 2 ·2H 2 O). The reactor was purged with nitrogen and pressurized with 0.55 MPa (approximately 80 psi) nitrogen. The reactor was heated to 180°C with stirring. After 5 minutes at 180°C, a toluene solution of 2.5 g of phenolic resin in 7.5 mL of hexane was injected into the reactor. The reactor temperature was raised to 200°C and the reaction was continued at 200°C for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, the reactor was cooled to ambient temperature and vented. The resulting polymer was precipitated by adding 500 mL of isopropanol, washed with 200 mL of isopropanol, and dried in a vacuum oven at 80°C for 16 hours.

Embodiment 3

[0268] In this example, 100 g of EPDM was dissolved in 1500 mL of hexane to prepare a stock solution of EPDM. Into an autoclave reactor (0.5 L) was added 300 mL of the above EPDM solution, 15 g isotactic polypropylene, 0.4 g zinc oxide (ZnO) and 0.5 g stannous chloride dihydrate (SnCl 2 ·2H 2 O). The reactor was purged with nitrogen and pressurized with 0.55 MPa (approximately 80 psi) nitrogen. The reactor was heated to 180°C with stirring. After 5 minutes at 180°C, a toluene solution of 4.0 g of phenolic resin in 6.0 mL of hexane was injected into the reactor, and the reaction was continued at 180°C for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the reactor was cooled to ambient temperature and vented. The resulting polymer was precipitated by adding 500 mL of isopropanol, washed with 200 mL of isopropanol, and dried in a vacuum oven at 60°C for 16 hours.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for preparing a thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) comprising: contacting a thermoplastic polymer, a cross-linkabl elastomer, at least one curative, and at least one cure activator in a solvent to form Composition A. The solvent is then removed, and thereafter the cross-linkable elastomer is at least partially cured. The average particle size of the cross-linkable elastomer is 10 microns or less after the solvent is removed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the preparation of thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) by solution processes, and the TPVs formed therein. Background technique [0002] Polymer blends comprising a second polymer dispersed in a matrix of the first polymer are very useful, and depending on the properties and relative amounts of the first and second polymers, a variety of such polymer copolymers can be prepared. mixture. Of particular interest are polymer blends, also known as thermoplastic elastomers, wherein the first polymer is a thermoplastic material, such as polypropylene, and the second polymer is an elastomeric material, such as ethylene-propylene elastomer or ethylene-propylene - Diene monomer (EPDM) rubber. Examples of such thermoplastic elastomers include polypropylene impact copolymers, thermoplastic olefins, and thermoplastic vulcanizates. [0003] Unlike conventional vulcanizates, thermoplastic elastomers can be processed and cycled like t...
