Abstract

Poly(2-vinyl pyridine) complexes were prepared via quaternization of the ring nitrogen with different reagents (I2, Br2, Cl2, CrO3, picric acid and HgCl2). The thermal behaviour of these polymer complexes, such as ΔE and the order of decomposition, were studied by using the modified Freeman and Carroll procedure. Generally, it was found that the presence of a substituent on the nitrogen in the polymer lowers the activation energy and the thermal stability.

Zusammenfassung

Durch Quaternierung von Ring-Stickstoffatomen mit verschiedenen Reagenzien (I2, Br2, Cl2, CrO3, Pikrinsäure, HgCl2). wurden Poly(2-vinylpyridin)komplexe hergestellt. Unter Anwendung der modifizierten Freeman and Carroll Methode wurde das thermische Verhalten dieser Polymerkomplexe untersucht, wie z.B. ΔE und Reaktionsordnung der Zersetzungsreaktion. Allgemein wurde festgestellt, daß die Anwesenheit einer Gruppe am Stickstoff im Polymer die Aktivierungsenergie senkt und seine thermische Stabilität verringert.
