The very strong Lewis acid aluminium chlorofluo-ride (ACF) was loaded with anhydrous HF. The interactionbetween the surface of the catalyst and HF was investigatedusing a variety of characterization methods, which revealed he formation of polyfluorides. Moreover, the reactivity ofthe HF-loaded ACF towards the hydrofluorination of alkyneswas studied.
Catalytic C–F bond activation reactions of mono- and polyfluoroalkanes at Lewis acidic amorphous aluminum chlorofluoride (ACF) are presented. The hydrogen sources Et3GeH or Et3SiH control the selectivity of the conversions. The immobilization of Et3GeH at ACF resulted in catalytic dehydrohalogenation reactions to yield olefins under very mild conditions. In contrast, if Et3SiH is immobilized at ACF, C–C coupling occured and the formation of Friedel–Crafts products was observed. MAS NMR spectroscopic studies revealed information about the surface binding of the substrates.
Benzamide has been known for its polymorphism for almost 200 years.Three polymorphic forms are described. To date,itwas only possible to crystallizeametastable form in amixture together with the thermodynamically most stable form I. Acomplete transformation of form Iinto the metastable form III by mechanochemical treatment has been achieved. Catalytic amounts of nicotinamide seeds were used to activate the conversion by mechanochemical seeding. NMR experiments indicated that the nicotinamide molecules were incorporated statistically in the crystal lattice of benzamide form III during the conversion. The transformation pathway was evaluated using in situ powder X-ray diffraction.
Synergistic multicomponent systems containing melamine poly(metal phosphate)s have been recently proposed as flame retardants. This work focuses on the decomposition pathways, molecular mechanisms and morphology of the fire residues of epoxy resin (EP) flame retarded with melamine poly(zinc phosphate) (MPZnP) to explain the modes of action and synergistic effects with selected synergists (melamine polyphosphate (MPP) and AlO(OH), respectively). The total load of flame retardants was always 20 wt.%. The decomposition pathways were investigated in detail via thermogravimetric Analysis coupled with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The fire residues were investigated via elemental analysis und solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The morphology of intumescent fire residues was investigated via micro-computed tomography and scanning electron microscopy.
EP + (MPZnP + MPP) formed a highly voluminous residue that showed structural features of both EP + MPZnP and EP + MPP, resulting in a highly effective protection layer. EP + (MPZnP + AlO(OH)) preserved the entire quantity of phosphorus content during combustion due to the Formation of Zn₂P₂O₇ and AlPO₄.
Structural changes in the condensed phase of bisphenol A polycarbonate (containing 0.45 wt% poly (tetrafluoroethylene))/silicone acrylate rubber/bisphenol A bis(diphenyl-phosphate) (PC/SiR/BDP) and PC/SiR/BDP/zinc borate (PC/SiR/BDP/ZnB) during thermal treatment in nitrogen atmosphere and in fire residues were investigated by solid-state NMR. H-1, B-11, C-13 and P-31 NMR experiments using direct excitation with a single pulse and H-1-P-31 cross-polarization (CP) were carried out including 31P(1 H) and C-13{P-31}double-resonance techniques (REDOR: Rotational Echo Double Resonance) on a series of heat-treated samples (580 K-850 K). Because many amorphous phases occur in the solid residues, and solid-state NMR spectroscopy addresses the most important sites carbon, phosphorus and boron, this paper is the key analytical approach for understanding the pyrolysis and flame retarding phenomenon in the condensed phase of PC/SiR/BDP and PC/SiR/BDP/ZnB.
For the system PC/SiR/BDP it is shown that (i) at temperatures around 750-770 K (main decomposition step) carbonaceous charring of PC occurs and arylphosphate structures are still present, reacted in part with the decomposing PC; (ii) for higher temperatures from 770 K the phosphorus remaining in the solid phase increasingly converts to amorphous phosphonates and inorganic orthophosphates with a minor amount of crystalline orthophosphates; and (iii) H-1-P-31{H-1} CP REDOR and H-1-C-13{P-31} CP REDOR NMR experiments suggest that the phosphates and phosphonates are bound via oxygen to aromatic carbons, indicating the interaction with the carbonaceous char.
When ZnB is added to the system PC/SiR/BDP, (i) ZnB leads to a slightly enhanced PC decomposition for temperatures below 750 K; (ii) alpha-Zn-3(PO4)(2) and borophosphate (BPO4) are formed in small amounts at high temperatures suggesting a reaction between BDP and ZnB during thermal decomposition; and (iii) most of the borate remains in the solid residues, forming an amorphous pure borate network, with the BO3/BO4 ratio increasing with higher temperatures.
The NMR data of thermal and fire residues are highly correlated, underlining the importance of this work for understanding the pyrolysis and flame retardancy mechanisms in the condensed phase during the burning of the PC/SiR blends. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Bisphenol A polycarbonate/acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (PC/ABS) with and without bisphenol A bis(diphenyl phosphate) (BDP) and 5 wt.% zinc borate (Znb) were investigated. The pyrolysis was studied by thermogravimetry (TG), TG-FTIR and NMR, the fire behaviour with a cone calorimeter applying different heat fluxes, LOI and UL 94. Fire residues were examined with NMR. BDP affects the decomposition of PC/ABS and acts as a flame retardant in the gas and condensed phases. The addition of Znb results in an additional hydrolysis of PC. The fire behaviour is similar to PC/ABS, aside from a slightly increased LOI and a reduced peak heat release rate, both caused by borates improving the barrier properties of the char. In PC/ABS + BDP + Znb, the addition of Znb yields a borate network and amorphous phosphates. Znb also reacts with BDP to form alpha-zinc phosphate and borophosphates that suppress the original flame retardancy mechanisms of BDP. The inorganic–organic residue formed provides more effective flame retardancy, in particular at low irradiation in the cone calorimeter, and a clear synergy in LOI, whereas for more developed fires BDP + Znb become less effective than BDP in PC/ABS with respect to the total heat evolved.
