Manufacturing Methods for Carboxy Nitroso Rubber
Abstract
The concludes the program establishing manufacturing methods for Carboxy Nitroso Rubber by 'thin film bulk polymerization'. The objectives were to evaluate at the pilot plant level the materials, chemical, engineering, and processing requirements for a production capability of thirty pounds of CNR per week and applicable for scale-up to 50,000 to 100,000 pounds per year. This was a five phase program during which the following functions were performed: Phase I, Production of Perfluoro-glutaric Acid (PFGA); Phase II, Production of Nitrosoperfluorobutyric Acid (NPBA); Phase III, Production of Trifluoronitrosomethane (CF3NO); Phase IV, Thin Film POlymerization of Carboxy Nitroso Rubber (CNR); and Phase V, Evaluation and Projected Scale-up to Pilot Plant. Demonstrations by the selected process were conducted that illustrated the reproducibility of yields and quality of product and for the production of approximately ninety pounds of the CNR product.
