| Abstract |
A series of phenyl carboxyl polydimethylsiloxane (PCPDMS) with different relative molecular mass, phenyl and carboxyl content was prepared through condensation reaction and equilibrium polymerization. The effects of reaction conditions on the conversion were investigated, to determine the optimum reaction conditions. According to the thermal gravity analysis of PCPDMS with different relative molecular mass and phenyl content, it was found that the large relative molecular mass can improve the thermal stability of PCPDMS. The thermal stability of PCPDMS was significantly higher than carboxyl polydimethylsiloxane. Moreover, the PCPDMS emulsions were also prepared for the fabrics treatment. The emulsions can improve the wrinkle resistance, smoothness, elasticity, and other properties of the fabrics. (c) 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018, 135, 45866. |
