The reaction of alkaline 2,4-dihydroxyquinoline 1 and 1-tetralone 2 in 2% sodium hydrox­ ide solution with vinyl acetate afforded a brown solid 3, which on treatment with phospho­ rous oxychloride yielded 2,4-dichloro-3-[l’-(l-chloro-naphth-2-yl)ethyl]quinoline (4). The same reaction of 1 and chromanone 7 with vinyl acetate afforded 2,4-dichloro-3-[l’-(4-chloro2-methyl-chromen-3-yl)ethyl]quinol...

Simultaneous electrospinning of two polymer solutions in a side-by-side fashion is conducted for two bicomponent polymer systems— poly (vinyl chloride)/segmented polyurethane (PVC/Estane) and poly(vinyl chloride)/poly(vinylidiene fluoride) (PVC/PVDF). The new experimental device is described and suitable process conditions to electrospin bicomponent fibers are described. Field emission scanning...

The copolymerizations of a gaseous monomer (ethylene) and a liquid monomer (vinyl acetate) via emulsion and miniemulsion polymerizations are reported. Reactions in which the vinyl acetate was introduced in both batch and semibatch modes are carried out. (Ethylene introduction is always in a semibatch model since the polymerization is carried out under a constant pressure of ethylene in the reac...

ABSTRACT The copolymerizations of vinyl chloride with o-olefin or acrylic compounds were investigated with organometallic compounds as catalysts. In general, organoaluminium compounds need to be treated with a complexing agent such as tetrahydrofuran prior to use. Otherwise the former reacts with polyvinyl chloride and loses its activity. The copolymer of vinyl chloride and propylene was thus o...

a mixture  of  sodium  lauryl  sulfate  (sls)  as  ionic  emulsifer  and  stearyl alcohol as non-ionic emulsifer was employed in a vinyl chloride emulsion polymerization  reaction  to  study  the  infuence  of  various  interactive parameters involved in the reaction system. it was found that the particle size was dependent on the amount and type of emulsifer. the average particle size of polyv...

Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectra of poly vinyl acetate and its deuterated derivative were recorded and observed frequencies were assigned to various mode of vibration in terms of fundamentals and combinations by assuming Cs point group symmetry. A normal coordinate analysis was also carried out using simple valence force field. A complete vibrational analysis is presented here for t...

Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is a complex plastic system. Individual components of the PVC system, including residual vinyl chloride monomer (RVCM) and certain additives, may pose risks of harm to human health. There have been significant reductions in the RVCM content of PVC resin since 1974, reducing the cancer risk of workers in PVC fabrication plants and consumers of PVC products. A "no-effec...

A nationwide survey of hepatic angiosarcoma (HAS) in the United States during the years 1964 through 1974 identified 168 cases. Of these, 42 cases (25%) were associated with known etiologic factors, such as vinyl chloride monomer exposure during preparation of poly(vinyl chloride), use of Thorotrast in angiography, exposure to inorganic arsenic, and treatment with androgenic-anabolic steroids; ...
