Aromatic dicarboxylic acid diallyl ester derivatives, prepolymer derived from the derivative and curable resin composition containing the derivative

The present invention relates to an aromatic dicarboxylic acid diallyl ester derivative, prepolymer derived from the derivative and curable resin composition containing the derivative.
It is known that a hexafluoropropene oligomer is reacted with 4-hydroxyphthalic acid or 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid to obtain a corresponding [perfluoroalkenyloxy] (iso)phthalic acid (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication Nos. 140,951/1981 and 51,146/1985). Further, also is known a dialkyl ester of 4-perfluoroalkenyloxyphthalic acid (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 24,547/1986). However, these compounds have no double bond in the molecule and can not polymerized by themselves or with other compounds having a double bond.
Diallyl aromatic dicarboxylate such as diallyl phthalate is a monomer having two polymerizable functional groups and is used for preparing a thermosetting resin. In a molding process for obtaining a desired molded article by polymerizing such a monomer, having at least two polymerizable functional groups, into a polymer, it is usual to suspend the polymerization reaction before completion in order to obtain a polymer having solubility in solvent or having thermoplasticity. The polymer is molded as in the form of a solution or a thermoplastic resin, and then polymerization is completed (cured) after molding or at the same time as molding to a cured resin which is not soluble in solvents or isthermoplastic. In the above method, the polymer having solubility or thermoplasticity is called a prepolymer.
A cured article of a conventional prepolymer, such as diallyl phthalate, is useful as a socket, connector and like electric parts, laminates, decorative sheets, etc., but has a defect of being poor in water-resistance.
Further, various curable resin compositions are conventionally known and are used for inks, varnishes, coating compositions, adhesives, FRP, molded articles and the like. An epoxy acrylate resin is excellent in adhesion to various kinds of substrates but is inferior in water-resistance. Further, an unsaturated polyester has a defect of being insufficient in water-resistance.
An object of the invention is to provide a novel aromatic dicarboxylic acid diallyl ester derivative and a process for preparing the same, which derivative has a double bond and can polymerize by itself or with other compounds having a double bond.
Another object of the invention is to provide a novel prepolymer derived from diallyl aromatic dicarboxylate which affords a cured product having an excellent water-resistance.
Still another object of the invention is to remedy the above-mentioned defects and to provide a curable resin composition which hardens by heating or irradiation of active energy rays to give a cured article having an excellent water-resistance.
The present invention provides a diallyl aromatic diacarboxylate derivative of the formula ##STR4## wherein Y is hydrogen atom or perfluoroalkenyl group having 6 to 14 carbon atoms.
The above diallyl aromatic dicarboxylate derivative includes all of the isomers in which one 2-propenyloxycarbonyl group is bonded in the ortho, meta or para position with respect to the other 2-propenyloxycarbonyl group.

Examples thereof are benzene, toluene, xylene, diallyl ether, etc. The obtained compound (2) can be purified by known method such as concentration, extraction, distillation, chromatography, etc. but can be reacted without purification with the perfluoroalkene XF in a next process step.
Examples of perfluoroalkenes XF are the following compounds of the formula: ##STR9## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each a perfluoroalkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or one of them is a fluorine atom and the others are each a perfluoroalkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms. Especially preferable are a dimer or trimer of hexafluoropropene, or tetramer, pentamer, hexamer or heptamer of tetrafluoeroethylene. These are shown below by the formulae: ##STR10##
The reaction is conducted preferably in a solvent in the presence of a base. Examples of bases are triethylamine, trimethylamine, tripropylamine or like amines, alkali metal or hydroxides thereof, etc. As a solvent is used preferably an aprotic polar solvent such as acetonitrile, dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, etc. The perfluoroalkene is used preferably in an amount of about 1 to 10 moles per mole of the compound (2).

The base is used preferably in an amount of about 2 to 20 moles per mole of the compound (2). The desired compound (3) can be separated and recovered by known methods used in the separation of a mixture of organic compounds containing solid dissolved in liquid. For example, the reaction mixture is added to a large amount of diluted hydrochloric acid and the resulting precipitates are collected and distilled at a reduced pressure to obtain the desired compound.

The compound (4) is a known compound. The reaction is conducted preferably in a solvent. As a solvent is preferably used one which makes an azeotrope with water and is substantially immiscible with water. Examples thereof are benzene, toluene, xylene, diallyl ether, etc. Allyl alcohol is used preferably in an amount of about 2 to 10 moles per mole of the compound (4). The reaction temperature is suitably selected but is usually about 50.degree. to 200.degree. C., preferably about 70.degree. to 160.degree. C. The desired compound (1) can be separated and recovered by known methods used in the separation of a mixture of organic compounds containing solid dissolved in liquid. For example, the desired compound (1) can be recovered by concentration, distillation, gas chromatography, etc.
The compound (1) can be polymerized by heating in the presence of a peroxide such as benzoyl peroxide, thereby a polymer (prepolymer) having a double bond is prepared. The prepolymer can be cured to a resin by heating or with irradiatin of light, electron rays or the like active energy rays and the cured product is excellent in water-resistance.
Thus, the present invention provides a prepolymer containing a repeating unit derived from diallyl aromatic fluorine-containing dicarboxylate and represented by the formula ##STR16## wherein X is perflouralkenyl group having 6 to 14 carbon atoms. Examples of X are same as described above.
In the invention, the repeating unit of the formula (6) is derived from diallyl fluorine-containing dicarboxylate which is a monomer of the above prepolymer and is represented by the formula ##STR17##
The compound (3) may convert, in some case, into a repeating unit of the formula ##STR18##
In the present invention, it is probable that there will be present in the prepolymer, a small amount of the above repeating unit(s).
The present prepolymer includes a copolymer having the repeating unit of the formula (6) and another repeating unit.
Examples of other repeating units are those derived from cleavage of double bond of various compounds such as ethylene, vinyl acetate, vinyl fluoride, vinyl chloride, acrylamide, methacrylamide, styrene, .alpha.-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, alkyl ester of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, benzyl (meth)acrylate, vinyl alkyl ether, halogenated alkyl vinyl ether, vinyl alkyl ketone, cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, maleic anhydride, butadiene, isoprene, chloroprene, diallyl phthalate, diallyl isophthalate, diallyl terephthalate, etc.
The prepolymer has a molecular weight (Mn) preferably of about 1000 to 50000, more preferably about 3000 to 10000 and an iodine value (grams of iodine which adduct to 100 g of sample) preferably of about 10 to 95, more preferably about 25 to 80. When the product has too high of a molecular weight, the gelled polymer is hard to process. With too small a molecular weight, the cured product does not have practical strength. The prepolymer having too small an iodine value can not give a cured product having practical strength. A cured product having inferior impact-resistance is obtained from a prepolymer having too large an iodine value.
The prepolymer is prepared by polymerizing the compound (3) or copolymerizing it with other comonomer.
Examples of useful comonomers are various compounds such as ethylene, vinyl acetate, vinyl fluoride, vinyl chloride, acrylamide, methacrylamide, stryrene, .alpha.-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, alkyl ester of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, benzyl (meth)acrylate, vinyl alkyl ether, halogenated alkyl vinyl ether, vinyl alkyl ketone, cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, maleic anhydride and like ethylenic compounds, butadiene, isoprene, chloroprene and like conjugated diene compounds, diallyl phthalate, diallyl isophthalate, diallyl terephthalate and like non-conjugated diene compounds, etc. The prepolymer contains the repeating unit (6) in an amount preferably of at least about one percent (weight percent, same as hereinafter), more preferably at least about 10%. With less than about one percent, water-resistance is not expected.
In the polymerization, methods and conditions thereof are suitably selected. For example, as radical polymerization are adopted bulk polymerization, solution polymerization, suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization, etc. As ionic polymerization are conducted cationic polymerization, etc. As an initiator in radical polymerization is used a compound which produces free radicals. Preferred radical initiators are benzoyl peroxide, tert-butyl perbenzoate, acetyl benzoyl peroxide, succinyl peroxide, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, ammonium persulfate and like peroxides, azobisisobutyronitrile and like azonitriles, etc. Further, it is possible to use a chain transfer agent which is disclosed in Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 16,035/1960 and has the formula ##STR19## wherein Z is Cl, OH or group convertible to OH, R is lower alkyl (1 to 4 carbon atoms), m is 0 to 4, n is 0 to (4-m). The chain transfer agent is used in an amount of preferably about 10 to 25% by weight in order to adjust the molecular weight and to prevent gelation. For the same purpose the amount of initiator, polymerization temperature, polymerization time, etc can be adjusted. The radical initiator is used in an amount of 0.1 to 10% by weight based on the weight of monomers. However, the amount of initiator is not limited thereabove and is suitably selected depending on polymerization degree of the desired polymer, polymerization time, polymerization temperature, etc. The polymerization temperature is usually -80.degree. C. to +250.degree. C. as depending on the decomposition temperature of the initiator. Generally, the temperature is preferably in the range of -40.degree. C. to +150.degree. C. Solvents useful for solution polymerization are benzene, toluene, xylene and like aromatic hydrocarbons, chloroform, methylene chloride, ethylene chloride and like low-basic solvents. These solvents are used singly or in mixture. The cationic polymerization is preferably conducted in a solvent such as toluene, benzene, etc. at -30.degree. C. to +250.degree. C. in the presence of boron trifluoride ethyl etherate, aluminum chloride or like initiator.
The polymer is separated from the reaction mixture by a usual method, for example, by adding the mixture to a poor solvent which does not dissolve the polymer such as methanol, diisopropyl ether, dimethyl ether, petroleum ether or n-hexane. The polymer is obtained as precipitates. The precipitated polymer is purified by dissolving it in a solvent which is capable of dissolving the polymer such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, ethyl acetate, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, ethylene dichloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene, benzene, toluene, etc. and thereafter re-precipitating the polymer by adding the solution in a poor solvent.
The present prepolymer can be cured by itself or in the form of a mixture thereof with a prepolymer of diallyl phthalate, diallyl isophthalate, diallyl tetraphthalate, etc. The curing is conducted by heating or light in the presence of thermal polymerization initiator, photopolymerization initiator, etc. or with irradiation of electron rays, gamma-rays or like active energy rays in the absence of the initiator. In case of using the initiator, as a carrier for initiator is used diallyl phthalate, diallyl isophthalate, diallyl terephthalate or like monomer. The carrier is used preferably up to about 90% by weight of the mixture.
