Polyoil 110 is a nonpolar stereospecific, low viscosity,
unsaponifiable liquid polybutadiene soluble in aliphatics, aromatics and
ethers.
The GC/MS chromatogram of the hexane/DCM-extracted fraction of A-DEPs
showed predominantly an aliphatic hydrocarbon pattern (Figure 1),
whereas the proportion of aliphatics in the SRM 2975
hexane/DCM-extracted fraction was negligible by comparison. * Cycloaliphatics--in between aromatics and aliphatics, usually
require heat cure unless accelerated or specifically formulated. |
