Hermann Staudinger(1953 Nobel Prize for chemistry) In a landmark paper published in 1920, Staudinger concluded the structure of rubber and other polymeric substances: “polymers were long chains of short repeating molecular units linked by covalent bonds.” Staudinger termed makromoleküls paved the way for the birth of the field of polymer chemistry.

Polymers Scientists use one or more of the following strategies to design the molecular feature of the polymer chain: 1. length of the chain (# of monomer units); 2. 3-D arrangement of the chains in the solid; 3. branching of the chain: 4. chemical composition of the monomer units; 5. bonding between the chains; 6. orientation of the monomer units within the chain.

Uses of the “Big Six” polymers

Polyethylene(PE) Radical polymerization of ethylene

Classification of PE Polyethylenes은 밀도에 따라 분류한다. 고분자의 가지치기 종류,갯수에 따라 밀도가 변한다. HDPE (high density PE) - 우유통 MDPE (medium density PE) - 배관 LDPE (low density PE) - 플라스틱백, squeeze LLDPE (linear low density PE) a substantially linear polymer, with significant numbers of short branches, commonly made by copolymerization of ethylene with longer-chain olefins.

LDPE vs. HDPE - branching a HDPE molecule an LDPE molecule

Uses of LDPE 유연성 강도와 내화학성이 우수 발포제품 우수한 전기절연성, 유연성 마요네즈나 케찹 용기 등의 플라스틱 squeeze bottle 강도와 내화학성이 우수 약품, 음료, 화장품 용기에도 많이 사용된다 발포제품 기포를 함유하고 있으므로 완충포장재, 고층건물의 지붕바닥재 및 소음 방지재, 스포츠레저용품 우수한 전기절연성, 유연성 옥내 외 각종 전선의 절연체, 피복

LDPE

Properties of LDPE HDPE보다 가지가 많다 분자간 힘이 약하게 작용 the chains do not "fit well" together. mp 105 ~ 115 °C 분자간 힘이 약하게 작용 as the instantaneous-dipole induced-dipole attraction is less. a lower density and tensile strength, increased malleability and faster biodegradation created by free radical polymerization

FT-IR of LDPE & HDPE

HDPE Branching이 거의 없는 고분자 사슬 제조방법 stronger intermolecular forces mp 120 ~ 130 °C 제조방법 by an appropriate choice of catalysts (e.g. Ziegler catalysts, 노벨화학상, 1963) reaction conditions.

Properties of HDPE 전기적 성질 광학적 성질 내약품성 HDPE는 전형적인 극성 고분자로서 전기장(electric field)속에서 이온 분극이나 쌍극자 분극이 없고 전자분극이나 원자분극만 존재한다. 뛰어난 절연성 때문에 HDPE는 전선(wire) & 케이블(cable)용 절연 소재로 널리 사용되고 있다. 광학적 성질 HDPE의 광학적 성질은 불투명도(haze), 광택성(gloss), 투명도(transparency) 등으로 특성화되며 이러한 성질들은 내부결정상태, 가공조건 등에 의해 좌우된다. HDPE 필름의 표면이 평활하지 못하면 불투명도(haze)가 증가하고, 내부에 공간(void)이 많거나 결정도가 크면 결정들(spherulites) 사이 경계면에서의 빛의 분산, 굴절로 인해 투명성이 저하되는데, 이는 일반적으로 HDPE가 LDPE보다 불투명한 이유이다. 내약품성 HDPE는 구조적으로 결정도가 높고 3차 수소(tertiary H)의 수가 매우 적기 때문에 다른 polyolefin에 비해 산화에 대한 안정성이 뛰어나다. 또한 응력이 가해지지 않은 상태에서 60℃까지는 보통의 유기용제나 산, 알칼리 등에 대하여 극히 안정하므로 각종 화학약품의 용기로 사용될 수 있다. Xylene 용액 속에서는 온도가 상승하면 팽윤(swelling)을 일으키며, CS2를 포함하고 있는 용액에 대해서는 취약하여 40℃이상에서 분해된다.

History of Polymers : rubber Natural rubber was first scientifically described by C.-M. de la Condamine and François Fresneau of France following an expedition to South America in 1735. The English chemist Joseph Priestley gave it the name rubber in 1770 when he found it could be used to rub out pencil marks. Its major commercial success came only after the vulcanization process was invented by Charles Goodyear in 1839.

Diene Polymers: Natural and Synthetic Rubber Conjugated dienes can be polymerized The initiator for the reaction can be a radical, or an acid Polymerization: 1,4 addition of growing chain to conjugated diene monomer

Natural Rubber A material from latex, in plant sap In rubber repeating unit has 5 carbons and Z stereochemistry of all C=C Gutta-Percha is natural material with E in all C=C Looks as if it is the head-to-tail polymer of isoprene (2-methyl-1,3-butadiene)

Vulcanization Natural and synthetic rubbers are too soft to be used in products Charles Goodyear discovered heating with small amount of sulfur produces strong material Sulfur forms bridges between hydrocarbon chains (cross-links)

Synthetic Rubber Chemical polymerization of isoprene does not produce rubber (stereochemistry is not controlled) Synthetic alternatives include neoprene, polymer of 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene This resists weathering better than rubber

Polymerization Methods Radical Polymerization, 첨가 반응 Step-wise addition of monomers Monomers have double bonds (불포화) Polymers have carbon chain backbone Condensation Polymerization, 축합반응 Generate a small molecule (탈수) Polymer can grow from both ends Polymers have oxygen or nitrogen in backbone Two types of polymer reactions Radical & Condenstation Radical polymerization requires three steps Initiation Propagation Termination Starting material are unsaturated molecules (compound with double bonds)

Polymers for Health * 의료용 고분자 : 생체 분해성 고분자는 단순 가수분해 또는 효소의 작용으로 분해소멸되는 고분자이다. 대부분의 합성고분자는 분해되지 않지만, 일부 지방족 폴리에스터 혹은 폴리카보네이트들은 가수분해에 의해 천천히 분해된다. 치과용 고분자로는 구강내 특수한 상황으로 요구특성이 매우 까다로와, PMMA와 bis-GMA계 복합재가 주종을 이룬다. 혈액투석기, 혈장분리기, 인공심폐기등에 쓰이는 분리막 소재로는 PMMA, PP, PAN, polysulfone, cellulose, PVA, PE, poly(ethylene-co-vinylacetate)등이 사용된다. 인공피부 인공 뼈 인공혈관 * 콘택트 렌즈 : 초기에 개발된 PMMA는 투명하고 기계적 강도는 우수하나 착용감이 나쁘고 산소투과성이 거의 없으므로 시장에서 쇠퇴하고, 최근에 많이 쓰이는 경질 콘택트 렌즈에 재료로서 PHEMA(poly hydroxyethylmethacrylate)계 친수성 하이드로젤을 사용한다. PMMA에 비하여 기계적 강도는 떨어지지만, 친수성이며 산소투과성이 높아 널리 사용된다.

비니루, 비닐 ‘비니루’ 라는 표현은 vinyl (비닐) 이라는 영어의 일본식 표현이다. 비닐장판, 비닐우산, 비닐 장갑 등 ‘비닐’ 을 사용한 예들이 많지만, 이렇게 하는 것은 반쯤 모자라는 것으로 덜 과학적인 표현이다. 화학에서 ‘비닐’ 이란 원자단의 하나로 화학식으로 표현하면 CH2〓CH─ 이며, CH─ 에 무언가가 결합하여야 온전한 화합물이 되기 때문이다. 예로 여기에 H가 결합하면 에틸렌(CH2〓CH2)이 되고, 염소가 결합하면 염화비닐(CH2〓CHCl), 페닐기가 결합하면 스티렌(CH2〓CH-C6H5)이 된다. 이들이 길게 연결하여 폴리에틸렌(PE), 폴리염화비닐(PVC), 폴리스티렌(PS)을 만든다. 우리가 통상 사용하는 비닐이라는 명칭은 석유화학 필름 제품에 두루 쓰고 있지만 이들 중에는 ‘비닐’이 아닌 것도 있다. 예로 나일론은 화학적으로는 비닐과는 거리가 있다. 오히려 나일론은 비단과 가깝다.
