Modelling polycarbonate synthesis rates on the example of bulk heteropolyaddition of diphenyl carbonate and bisphenol A diglycidyl ether
This paper investigates the effects of increased reaction mixture viscosity on the kinetics of linear polymer creation in a bulk polyaddition process of diphenyl carbonate and bisphenol A diglycidyl ether. The paper presents a method for solving a system of bulk polyaddition of diphenyl carbonate and bisphenol A diglycidyl ether process balance equations, allowing the determinatiof the process kinetic parameters. Determination of polymerisation reaction kinetic parameters was also made possible by the use of the so-called partial reaction rate constant. Such an approach enabled a significant simplification of the mathematical expressions describing the heteropolyaddition process and provided an opportunity to associate kinetic parameters with the average molar mass of the mixture and, thus, with the viscosity. The method presented herein facilitates an analysis of the linear polymers heteropolyaddition process.
