The polymer-nanoparticles/nanocomposites have been the exponentially growing field of research for developing the materials in last few decades and have been mainly focusing on the structure-property relationships and their development. Since the polymer-nanocomposites have been the staple of modern polymer industry, their durability under various environmental conditions and degradability after their service life are also essential fields of research. Thus, this article is intended to review the status of worldwide research in this aspect. Among various nanoparticulates, clay minerals and carbon nanotubes are more often used in enhancing physical, mechanical and thermal properties of polymers. In very few systems, the nano particulates have been incorporated into polymer as `nano-additives' for both purposes: degradation and stabilization of polymers. The degradation and durability of polymers is reviewed in the presence of nanoparticles/nanocomposites under different environmental conditions. Nanoparticle-induced biodegradation of polymers is also discussed. (c) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

The amide based allylic phosphonium salts, namely 2-(N, N-dimethylcaboxy-propenyl) triphenylphosphonium hexafluoroantimonate (DMTPH) and 2-(morpholinocarboxy-propenyl) triphenyl phosphonium hexafluoroantimonate (MTPH) were synthesized and characterized. The thermal and photo-latency of these salts was examined with and without free radical sources in bulk polymerization of cyclohexene oxide (CHO) salts at 70 A degrees C and lambda &amp;gt; 290 nm irradiation, respectively. In presence of thermal free radical source, the order of activity was observed as PAT &amp;gt; BPO &amp;gt; AIBN. The order of activity of free radical sources on photopolymerization was found to be benzoin &amp;gt; benzophenone &amp;gt; TMDPO. In addition, photopolymerization of other cationically polymerizable monomers (such as n-butyl vinyl ether, isobutyl vinyl ether, N-vinyl carbazole and glycidyl phenyl ether) was also examined at lambda &amp;gt; 290 nm irradiation. It is concluded that the rate of cationic polymerization can be accelerated using novel phosphonium salts with combination of free radical sources, by both thermal and photochemical mode.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.215</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gupta, Mukesh Kumar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Singh, Raj Pal</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Novel dibenzocycloheptenyl phosphonium salts as thermolatent initiator in cationic polymerization</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Applied Polymer Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cationic polymerization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">glycidyl phenyl ether</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">initiators</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphonium salt</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">thermolatent</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JOHN WILEY &amp; SONS INC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN, NJ 07030 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">112</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3707-3713</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;In this study, novel thermolatent cationic initiators based on dibenzocycloheptenyl phosphonium salts (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 2a, and 3a) were synthesized and their efficiency was examined in bulk polymerization of glycidyl phenyl ether (GPE). The polymerization of GPE was performed with 1 mol % of dibenzocycloheptenyl triphenylphosphonium salts (1a-1d) with different counter anions (SbF(6)(-), PF(6)(-), AsF(6)(-), and BF(4)(-)) at 25-200 degrees C for 1 h. The order of initiator activity was found as 1a &amp;gt; 1d &amp;gt; 1b &amp;gt; 1c. To examine the effect of phosphine moiety, the activity of la was compared with dibenzocycloheptenyl-tri-n-butylphosphonium hexafluoroantimonate (2a). The order of initiator activity was observed as 1a &amp;gt; 2a. The initiator activity of la was compared with that of 10,11-dihydro-dibenzocycloheptenyltriphenylphosphonium hexafluoroantimonate (3a) to understand the effect of extended conjugation in dibenzocycloheptenyl ring. In general, with the increase in the polymerization temperature, conversion (%) also increases. The solubility of initiators in various solvents and epoxy monomers was also examined.

Novel addition-fragmentation agent (AFA), 2-(N,N-dimethylcarboxy-3-propenyl)(phenylcarbonyl-4-phenylene) dimethyl ammonium hexafluoroantimonate (DMPDA) was synthesized as cationic photoinitiator and its initiation efficiency was examined in polymerization of cyclohexene oxide (CHO), isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE), and n-butyl vinyl ether (n-BVE) in CH(2)Cl(2) solvent at wavelength lambda &amp;gt; 290 nm. The rate of polymerization increases with the increase in initiator concentration and reaction time. The results demonstrate that DMPDA acts as an efficient photoinitiator (AFA) without use of radical source in free radical accelerated cationic polymerization.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.215</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
