Vinyl Monomer

They are increasingly used in radiation curing systems because of a lower toxicity profile than the commonly used acrylic monomers.

Vinyl monomer.

Let s see how we get from a vinyl monomer to a vinyl polymer using for an example the simplest vinyl polymer polyethylene. Vinyl acetate monomer vam is a significant intermediate used in the production of a wide range of resins and polymers for paints coatings adhesives sealants elastomers and a myriad of other industrial and consumer applications. At room temperature vcm is a gas with a sweet ethereal odor but in industrial processes it is most often handled as a liquid melting point 13 c. Vinyl chloride also known as vinyl chloride monomer vcm and chloroethene is an organochloride compound.

Vinyl composition tile floortiles. They make up largest family of polymers. In chemistry vinyl or ethenyl abbreviated as vi is the functional group with the formula c h ch 2 it is the ethylene iupac ethene molecule h 2 c ch 2 with one fewer hydrogen atom. Monomers bearing electron releasing groups are susceptible to cationic polymerization 78 79 these monomers can be classified in two main categories.

Vinyl acetate is primarily used as a monomer in the production of polyvinyl acetate and polyvinyl alcohol. Vinyl ethers undergo homopolymerization via a cationic mechanism. Polyvinyl chloride pvc a particular vinyl polymer. Vinyl may refer to.

That is small molecules containing carbon carbon double bonds. Vinyl polymers are polymers made from vinyl monomers. Vinyl group a class of organic molecules in chemistry. The name is also used for any compound containing that group namely r ch ch 2 where r is any other group of atoms.

Minor uses of vinyl chloride monomer include the manufacture of chlorinated solvents primarily 10000 tonnes per year of 1 1 1 trichloroethane and the production of ethylene diamine for the manufacture of resins. An industrially important example is vinyl chloride precursor to pvc a plastic. Vam efficiently homo polymerizes to polyvinyl acetate pva and is used in numerous random co and terpolymers. 1 vinyl monomers for which the reactive end group is a carbocation and 2 heterocyclic monomers bearing one or two heteroatoms within the ring structure for which the reactive end group is an onium ion e g oxonium sulfonium phosphonium etc.

Phonograph record commonly referred to as vinyl because they were made with pvc. Vinyl polymer a group of polymers derived from vinyl monomers.
