Effect of pressure and temperature upon tin alkoxide-promoted ring-opening polymerisation of epsilon-caprolactone in supercritical carbon dioxide.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ring-opening polymerisation of epsilon-caprolactone in supercritical carbon dioxide is slowed down by a carbonation reaction, resulting in a positive volume of activation and a higher energy of activation as compared to polymerisation in a regular hydrocarbon solvent.

Preparation of PMMA/MWNTs Nanocomposite Microcellular Foams by In-situ Generation of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
Nanocomposites containing poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and surface functionalized Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWNTs) were synthesized. The dispersion of MWNTs in PMMA was characterized using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).The synthesized nanocomposites were successfully foamed using a simple method based on the in-situ generation of supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2</sub...
متن کاملDispersion Coefficients of Supercritical Fluid in Fixed Beds
The axial dispersion coefficient of hexachlorobenzene in supercritical carbon dioxide is investigated in a fixed-bed packed with glass beads. The on-line chromatographic pulse-response experiment is used in order to study the dynamics of a packed column under supercritical conditions. The radial dispersion is assumed negligible because of the packed column geometry. To estimate the axial disper...
متن کاملInfluence of expansion cooling regime on morphology of poly(Epsilon-caprolactone) foams prepared by pressure quenching using supercritical CO2
Creation of foam structures from hydrolytically degradable poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) is a current task in biomaterial research. One example are degradable scaffolds. The thermodynamic and kinetic conditions in a supercritical CO2 (scCO2) supported foaming process of PCL can influence the resulting morphology of the foam. PCL-foaming with scCO2 was systematically investigated in the pressure ra...

Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) was used as solvent to synthesize oleyl oleate as an analog of Jojoba oil from oleic acid and oleyl alcohol with high conversion (100%) of the acid into ester in a short time of 100 min. Utilizing a low cost solid catalyst, p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (PTSA), the esterification reaction was performed, without any prior preparation step...
متن کاملSolubility Prediction of Drugs in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Using Artificial Neural Network
The descriptors computed by HyperChem® software were employed to represent the solubility of 40 drug molecules in supercritical carbon dioxide using an artificial neural network with the architecture of 15-4-1. The accuracy of the proposed method was evaluated by computing average of absolute error (AE) of calculated and experimental logarithm of solubilities. The AE (±SD) of data sets was 0.4 ...
