Synopsis

Perfluoroalkylene diacetylenes, HC-C-(CF2)n-,-CCll, underwent thermal

polymerization at 250-350 OC to give glassy polymers stable to 450 OC.

Partial polymerization of the volatile monomers gave oligomers that are

processable at atmospheric pressure. Polymers with similar thermal

stability were obtained by transition-retal-catalyzed polymerizfl, io of

the monomers at moderate temperatures.

INTRODUCTION

There has been extensive interest in recent years on the application

of acetylene-terminated monomers and oligomers for the preparation of

thermally stable polymers. Systems that have been studied include poly-

phenylene82 , imides3 , phenylquinoxalines 4, sulfones s and triazines6 . The

acetylene groups undergo thermal polymerization to give linking groups

with high thermal stability.

Fluorocarbons comprised another structure class taint tippear(d t.o be

potentially useful for this approach. Fluoropolymers possess useful

stability, dielectric, and wat~er re p;lerncy properties, but. mithods for

the preparation of cross-linikled, 'astable matrices are not generally

available. With the objective of providing slarting materials for this

purpose, we developed synthesis procedures for perfluoroalkylerle diacety-

lenes, jlC=C(CF 2),C-CI. 7 '' he preferred synthetic rou t(e for HC-C(CF2)4Cl(l1

and higher hornologs is outlined below.

The preparation of HC-C(CF2)6C-C(l by this method was complicated by. the

formation of a cyclic product, and art alternate procedure consisting of

addition of the fluorocarbon diodide to trimethylsilylacLttylene,

dehydrohalogenation and desilylation was used. 7

Thermal Oligomerization of IH,12H-Perfluoro-1,11-dodocadiyne

A sealed glass tube containing 0.41 g (0.9 mmol) of l1,12H-per-

fluoro-1,11-dodecadiyno was heated at 250 OC for 41 h. Unreacted

starting material was removed under vacuum to give 0.28 g (68%) of

viscous oil: MW (VPO, ethyl acetate) calcd for tetramer C48HsF&.: 1800;

found 1726. Heating the material at 260 QC for 40 h gave a yellow glassy

polymer insoluble in common solvents.

Catalytic Polymerization of 1H, 12H-Perfluoro- 1,11-dodecadiyne

A mixture of 2.0 g (4.4 mmol) of 1H,12H-Perfluoro-1,1l-dodecadiyne

and 10 mg of bis(benzonitrile)palladium (11) chloride was heated in a

sealed glass tube, with occasional shaking, at 120 OC for I h. A brown

rubbery resin was obtained. An identically prepared sealed sample heated

for an additional 12 h period at 150 0C gave a dark glassy polymer.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Preliminary thermal polymerization studies of the fluorinated di-

acetylenes were carried out using l1C=C(CF2)eC-CH, H0_C(CFs)sC=CH and

lC=C(CFa)ioC=CH. Samples were heated in scaled tubes at 250 0C tW give

clear hard polymers, yellow to amber in color. DSC analysis of the

samples showed symmetrical exotherms at 350 OC, with no evidence of

decomposition to 450 0C. Repetition of the scans showed only ondotherms

at 106 to 120 0C, believed to represent glass transition temperatures.

TGA showed initiation of woig~ht loss at 450 0C. The 350 0C exotherm was

ascribed to the completion of polymerization of uricured sites, confirmed

by the observation of acotylenic aimorbtion in the IR spectra (3318 and

2145 cm - 1) of the original polymer. The iI(>C(CF2abC-CH polymer showed a

critical surface tension of 21.6 dynoa/cm, and water absorbtion determi-

nation over a 6-month period was negative. A swelling experiment with

Freon 113 showed 12% absorbtion in 90 hrs.'

Because HC-C(CF2)sC-CH is more readily available in quantity than

its homologs, and this material was used in subsequent work. A problem

in practical applications of this diacetylene is that its volatility at

the temperatures required for thermal polymerization would require the

use of pressurized containers for the fabrication of samples. One way to

circumvent this problem is to carry out. the polymerization in sealed

containers to only a low degree of completion with the objective of

preparing fluid or easily proceEiable oligomers with sufficiently low

volatility that final cure can be carried out at atmospheric pressure.

The polymerization of HC=C(CF2)sCZCH was controlled adequately at

250 OC in sealed tubes, and after 41 It, 68% of the monomer was consumed.

Removal of the unreacted monomer under vscuum left a viscous oil with a

VPO molecular weight of four monomer units. The oligomer was then cured

at atmospheric pressure by heating at 250 OC for several days to give a

polymer with similar appearance and thermal properties to that obtained

by polymerization of the monomer in sealed tubes.

Another approach to applying the volatile diacetylene for molding or

coating applications is to use catalysts to lower the polymerization

temperature. The cyclotrimerization and oligomorization of 3,3,3-tri-

fluoropropyno with metal carbonyl catalysts has been r(eported, 10 and a

number of catalyst systems have been used for similar reactions of non-

fluorinated aromatic and aliphatic ncetylenv.s4.1 Consequontly, we

initiated qualitative scroenir, stiidies to determine the offectiveness of

some available catalysts for th, polymerizition of IIC.:C(CI"2)mC--CII. The

results are summarized in Table I.

Of the catalysts tested, IPdCI2(PhCN)2 was the miost effective, and an

little as 0.1 wtV. was sufficient to promoto polymerization. With a 1%

catalyst level, solidification took place in 2 days at ambient tempera-

ture, in 2-3 lira at 80 OC and in minutes at 130 OC. The catalysts,

Ni(acac)2 and Mo(CO)G were lesm effective than PdCI2(PhCN)2, but they

also produced polymers with appearance similar to that of the thermally

produced polymer. On the other hand, Ni(Ph3P)2(CO)2 and CpCo(CO)a gave

tarry products. Because of the effectiveness of PdCla(PhCN)t for our

* system, further work was carried out with this catalyst, which has been

reported to trimerize ulkynes selectively to benzeiies. 12

Cured samples of the catalyzed polymer were similar to those pro-

duced thermally in that they had a glassy ap;pearance and were brittle.

DSC curves of the two types of polymner were essentially identical. To

obtain additional information about the polymeriaztion reactions, model

studies were carried out using CF3(CF2)oCCH. Heating a sample of this

monoacetylene with PdClz(PhCN)t at 110 0C for 5 h gave a 95% yield of an

oil, identified by molecular weight, elemental analysis, and mass spec-

troscopy as a trimer of the starting material.

Also, CFs(CF2)gCCH was heated under conditions used for the thermal

polymerization of the diacetylenes, 260 OC for 40 h. The product was a

sublimable solid with a molecular weight by VPO of four monomer units.

The brittleness of the polymers is attributed to the high degree of

cross-linking, and would be expected to be lessened by copolymerizing a

monoacetylene with the diacetylene. Mechanical properties of the palla-

dium-catalyzed homopolymers arid several copolymers were determined by the

three-point bending method 13, and are summarized in Table II. Copolymers

of HC-C(CF2)aC=Cl1 wore obtainod with PdCI2(PhCN)2 as the catalyst and

CF3(CF2),CCH as the monofunctional conmporient. A sample basled on 28 mole

% monoacetylene was a hard resin similar to the diacetylene homopolymer,

but somewhat less brittle. lowever, a sample prepared with 57 % of the

monoacetylene was flexible and rubbery. Tensile moduli of the copolymors

and the homopolymer are in agrRcrment with these observations.

Tensile moduli for the homopolymer at temperatures to 200 0C were

also determined. There is no significant discontinuity at the tempera-

ture of the DTA endotherm (118 0C).
