COPOLYMERS MADE WITH ALLYL-TERMINATED POLYOLEFINS AND UNSATURATED ACIDIC REAGENTS, DISPERSANTS USING SAME, AND METHODS OF MAKING SAME

摘要

Copolymers made with allyl-terminated polyolefins and unsaturated acidic reactants, dispersants using same, and methods of making same are provided. Under one aspect, a copolymer of an unsaturated acidic reactant and high molecular weight polyolefin, wherein the polyolefin comprises an allyl-terminated polymeric product, is provided. The allyl-terminated polymeric product is formed, e.g., by forming a quasi-living tert-halide terminated polyolefin under suitable quasi-living conditions, and contacting the tert-halide terminated polyolefin with an allylsilane compound and a Lewis acid. In some embodiments, the allylsilane compound includes allyltrimethylsilane.
