Аннотация:Poly(5-triethoxysilyl-2-norbornene) was prepared in good yield (71%) by vinyl-addition polymerization using the catalyst trans-Ni(C6F5)2(SbPh3)2. This polymer is completely amorphous and has a high glass transition temperature (325 °C). Investigation of its gas permeation parameters revealed that it has relatively high gas permeability for a variety of gases (e.g. P(O2) =211 Barrer). A unique feature of poly(5-triethoxysilyl-2-norbornene) is that it is a glassy material that exhibits solubility controlled permeation of hydrocarbons, a feature that is commonly only found in rubbery polymers and polymers with extremely large free volume (e.g. poly[(trimethylsilyl)propyne]. The permeability coefficient of butane in this polymer (P(C4H10)) is as high as 5 ×103 Barrer, whereas its butane/methane selectivity (P(C4H10)/P(CH4)) is 21 ± 3. Analysis of poly(5-triethoxysilyl-2-norbornene)'s permeability coefficients, diffusion coefficients, solubility coefficients, and free volume demonstrate that this polymer combines the attractive properties of both a rubbery polymer and a glassy polymer.
