Features And Benefits

Polybutadiene has a high resistance to wear and is used especially in the manufacture of tires, which consumes about 70% of the production. Another 25% is used as an additive to improve the toughness (impact resistance) of plastics such as polystyrene and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS).

Other Experimental

Dimerizes to 4-vinylcyclohexane;Adiabatic calorimetry performed on butadiene-derived popcorn polymer samples from industrial facilities has revealed exothermic behavior accompanied by non-condensible gas production, indicative of possible decomposition, at elevated temperatures. In the presence of low concentrations of 1,3-butadiene, reactivity is observed at temperatures of 60-70 degrees C; that is, 20-30 degrees C below those usually seen for butadiene alone. Once the butadiene is consumed, the reaction behavior reverts to that of the popcorn polymer alone. At higher butadiene concentrations, the low temperature reaction persists, eventually merging with typical butadiene behavior. The butadiene reactivity with popcorn polymer is attributed to polymerization reaction at free radical sites in the popcorn polymer. Different popcorn polymer samples exhibit distinct extents of reactivity, presumably depending on the nature and concentration of the free radical sites and the structure of the material. Uninhibited butadiene exposed to 100 psia air, which may act to generate peroxide species, shows a small, additional exotherm around 50-80 degrees C. Contact of butadiene with lauroyl peroxide, providing free radicals upon decomposition, generates an exotherm at temperatures as low as 60 degrees C.;LIQUID SURFACE TENSION: 13.4 DYNES/CM AT 20 °C; LIQUID-WATER INTERFACIAL TENSION: (EST) 67 DYNES/CM AT 22 °C; VAPOR (GAS) SPECIFIC GRAVITY: 1.9 AT 20 °C; RATIO OF SPECIFIC HEATS OF VAPOR (GAS): 1.1; LATENT HEAT OF VAPORIZATION: 100 CAL/G; HEAT OF COMBUSTION: -10560 CAL/G; HEAT OF POLYMERIZATION: -305 CAL/G;1 mg/cu m = 0.45 ppm; 1 ppm = 2.25 mg/cu m;Specific volume at 21.1 °C, 101.325 kPa: 430.6 cu d/kg; 6.9 cu ft/lb;Absolute density, gas at 101.325 kPa at 0 °C: 2.428 kg/cu m; Relative density, gas at 101.325 kPa at 0 °C (air = 1): 1.878; Density, liquid at saturation pressure at 20 °C: 0.621 kg/l; Critical density: 0.245 kg/cu m;Critical compressibility factor: 0.270;Molar specific heat, gas at 101.325 kPa at 25 deg, at constant pressure: 82.132 J/mol K; 0.363 kcal/kg K; at constant volume: 73.803 J/mol K; 0.326 kcal/kg K;Enthalpy of fusion: 7.98 kJ/mol;LIQUEFIED COMPRESSED GAS;Colorless liquid at -4.7 °C;Henry's Law constant = 7.36X10-2 atm-cu m/mole at 25 °C /Calculated from the atmospheric vapor pressure (760 mm Hg since it is a gas) and water solubility/;Hydroxyl radical reaction rate constant = 6.93X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C;Ozone reaction rate constant = 6.24X10-18 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C;Nitrate radical reaction rate constant = 1.00X10-13 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C
