Synthesis and Polymerization of 4-Vinylbenzylphenylsulfone
The preparation of new sulfone monomer and polymer based on 4-Vinylbenzylphenylsulfone (4-VBPS) and free radical polymerization was investigated, based on the reaction of chloromethyl styrene with sodium phenyl sulfone (phSO2Na) in dimethylformamide (DMF), using the phase transfer catalysts 18-crown-6. Copolymerization of the prepared sulphone monomer with p-methylstyrene was carried out at 65 ËšC. Nonpolymerizable 4-Ethylbenzylphenylsulfone was also prepared. The prepared monomers and polymers were characterized by different spectroscopic techniques, the number-average molecular weights (Mn) of the resulting polymer was found to be in the range of 70,100 -73,100, with polydispersity indices (Mw/Mn) vary from 1.8 to 1.9. Photolysis of the prepared polysulfone polymer and possible grafting of methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer will be reported
Synthesis and Applications of Polymeric Reagent p-Substituted Triphenylamine
Chemical modification of chloromethylstyrene - styrene copolymer throughout reaction of p-substituted carboxylic acid group of bis-(4,4`-dibromo)-4``-triphenylamine carboxylic acid with the chloromethyl group attached to a phenyl group was carried out on soluble copolymer and polymeric cross-linked copolymer. Chemical oxidation of the neutral p-substituted triphenylamine with antimony pentachloride in dichloromethane solvent gives the corresponding cation - radical salt with the counter ion antimony hexachloride (SbCl6-). The isolated deep blue color cation radical salt is soluble or in insoluble (resin) form in the copolymer was used as a thermal cationic initiator for the polymerization of epoxy and vinyl monomers at room temperature. The cation radical resin showed good activity and stability compared to the soluble polymeric cation radical, both can initiate the cationic polymerization of cyclohexene oxide and N-vinylcarbazole in dichloromethane at room temperature
Cationic Polymerization Induced by Tris-(p-bromophenyl) Amine Cation-Radical Salts
Substituted triphenylamine cation radical salts having anions of the type SbF6-, PF6-, BF4- and SbCl6-, were prepared and used to initiate cationic polymerization of cyclohexene oxide (CHO), tetrahydrofuran (THF), and N-vinyl carbazole (NVC), thermally in dichloromethane at room temperature. Experimental results are presented to show the effects of salt counter ion, concentration, and polymerization conditions on the yield and the molecular weight of the obtained polymer. THF polymerization was enhanced by photolysis of the reaction mixture for short time. A general mechanism for the polymerization by cation-radical salts of substituted triphenylamine is proposed

Effect of Temperature on the Corrosion Inhibition of Trans-4-Hydroxy-4′-Stilbazole on Mild Steel in HCl Solution
The inhibition and the effect of temperature and concentration of trans-4-hydroxy-4′-stilbazole on the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl solution was investigated by weight loss experiments at temperatures ranging from 303 to 343 K. The studied inhibitor concentrations were between 1×10−7 M and 1×10−3 M. The percentage inhibition increased with the increase of the concentration of the inhibitor. The percentage inhibition reached about 94% at the concentration of 1×10−3 M and 303 K. On the other hand, the percentage inhibition decreased with the increase of temperature. Using the Temkin adsorption isotherm, the thermodynamic parameters for the adsorption of this inhibitor on the metal surface were calculated. Trans-4-hydroxy-4′-stilbazole was found to be a potential corrosion inhibitor since it contained not only nitrogen and oxygen, but also phenyl and pyridine rings that are joined together with a double bond (–C=C–) in conjugation with these rings
Inhibition of Mild Steel Corrosion by 3-Benzoylmethyl Benzimidazolium Hexafluoroantimonate in Acidic Solution
The corrosion inhibition of mild steel in 1 M HCl solution by a synthesized compound (3-benzoylmethyl benzimidazolium hexafluoroantimonate) was investigated electrochemically and by weight loss experiments. The concentration of this inhibitor ranged from 5 ×10-7 M to 5×10-4 M. The effect of temperature (from 303 to 343 K) and concentrations (from 5×10-7 M to 5×10-4 M) were investigated. The percentage inhibition increased with the increase of the concentration of the inhibitor and reached about 98% at the concentration of 5×10-4 M at 303 K. The percentage inhibition decreased with the increase of temperature. The thermodynamic parameters for the adsorption of this inhibitor on the metal surface were calculated. This compound was found to be a very good corrosion inhibitor due to the presence of nitrogen in benzimidazole and phenyl ring
