Problems solved by technology

At present, many kinds of star-shaped butadiene-isoprene-styrene copolymers have been reported in the literature. For example, a Chinese patent (CN1350012A) has invented a star-shaped block copolymer and its preparation method. The copolymer has the following structure : C-(SBR-IBR)n, where SBR is butadiene, styrene random copolymer block, IBR is butadiene, isoprene random copolymer block, n is the initiator functionality, n is greater than or equal to 3, this synthesis method belongs to the first nuclear rear arm method, that is, first synthesize a multifunctional initiator, and then add the required monomers to synthesize a star-shaped butadiene-isoprene-styrene copolymer, This method is relatively complex due to the strong association of multifunctional initiators resulting in a wide range of polymer molecular weights.
Another synthesis method is the arm-first-nucleus method, such as the US patent (US6034042), which first synthesizes the polymer arm, and then performs a coupling reaction by adding a coupling agent to obtain a star-shaped butadiene-isoprene-styrene Copolymer, the difficulty of this method is the control of coupling efficiency

The starlike isoprene-styrene segmented copolymer has a structure of (PI-S)n-C in which PI is a polyisoprene block, S is a polystyrene block, C is a residue of a starlike coupling reagent with the coupling efficiency being greater than 80%, and n is the average arm number and is greater than or equal to 3. The number-average molecular weight of the starlike copolymer (PI-S)n-C is 5*10<4>-5*10<5>, the number-average molecular weight of the polymer arm PI-S is 1*10<3>-1*10<5>, the content of S in the copolymer is 5-80wt% and the content of PI is 20-95wt%. The preparation method of the copolymer is realized by dropwise adding the coupling reagent step by step. The copolymer hydrogenated is a viscosity index improver with excellent performance, strong thickening ability and excellent low-temperature performance, and can satisfy the demand on the polymer performance on different occasions.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a synthesis and preparation method of a polymer material, in particular to a star-shaped isoprene-styrene block copolymer with high coupling efficiency and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The study found that the star polymer as a viscosity index improver has both good shear resistance and thickening ability, and the performance of the polymer mainly depends on the structure of the polymer. U.S. patent (US4116917) adopts the arm-first-nucleus method and uses polydivinylbenzene as the core to synthesize a series of star-shaped hydrogenated diene polymers with different polymer arms. The number of arms in the star-shaped polymer is 7-15 , When the above polymer is used in multi-grade lubricating oil, its shear resistance performance is greatly improved, especially for high molecular weight polymers, and some polymers show good thickening ability. US patent (US4877836) invented a hydrogenated asymmetri...
