METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR INHIBITING VINYL AROMATIC MONOMER POLYMERIZATION

Methods and compositions are provided for inhibiting the polymerization of a vinyl aromatic monomer, such as styrene monomer, during elevated temperature processing thereof or during storage or shipment of polymer containing product. The compositions comprise a combination of a quinone methide derivative A) and a phenol compound B). The methods comprise adding from about 1-10,000 ppm of the combination to the monomer containing medium, per one million parts of the monomer.

4-Formyl amino-n-methylpiperidine derivatives, the use thereof as stabilisers and organic material stabilised therewith

The present invention relates to 4-formylamino-N-methylpiperidine derivatives of the formula (I) where the variables are as defined in the Description, to a process for preparing these piperidine derivatives, to the use of these piperidine derivatives of the invention, or prepared according to the invention, for stabilizing organic material, in particular for stabilizing plastics or coating materials, and also to the use of these piperidine derivatives of the invention, or prepared according to the invention, as light stabilizers or stabilizers for wood surfaces. The present invention further relates to stabilized organic material which comprises these piperidine derivatives of the invention or prepared according to the invention.

Thioether substituted hydroxybenzophenones and stabilized compositions

2-Hydroxybenzophenone derivatives substituted in the 4′-position by a thioether moiety exhibit enhanced absorption in the UV at longer wavelength. Compositions comprising organic material subject to actinic degradation are beneficially stabilized with such derivatives.

Entropy and enthalpy effects of 4-(phenylthio)-substituted phenols

Electron paramagnetic monitoring of free phenoxyl radicals in benzene-toluene (1:1) solution has been used to study the temperature dependence of the equilibrium (a), for which the equilibrium constant, K1 is (formula presented) R1 But; R2 = S-(3-methyl-4-hydroxy-5-tert-butylphenyl), R3 = CH3 given by eqn. (b). (formula presented) The fit of experimental data to eqn. (c) yields ΔH1 = 28.80 ± 3.39 kJ mol-1 and ΔS1 = 116.9 ± 12.7 J K-1 In K1 = (-ΔH/RT) + (ΔS/R) (c) mol-1. The entropy change value is about 30 J KT-1 mol-1 in excess of the absolute entropy of the molecular rotor evolving about each of the C-S bonds in the thiobis(phenol) 1, thus denoting the enhancement by solute-solvent interactions. As well as using the enthalpy change to account for the stability of the generated phenoxyls, and/or the ability of hydrogen cession by phenols, the entropy change must also be measured when evaluating the antioxidant behaviour of this type of molecule, as its influence on the Gibbs free energy change is shown to be relevant.
