Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Preparation of isobutene homopolymers or copolymers having a number average molecular weight of from 500 to 5 000 000 by polymerization of isobutene or an isobutene-comprising monomer mixture in the presence of a Lewis acid or a complex comprising a Lewis acid as polymerization catalyst, wherein the polymerization is carried out in the presence of at least one hemiacetal or full acetal which can be obtained by protic acid-catalyzed reaction of at least one C 1 -C 12 -hydrocarbyl alcohol with at least one aldehyde or ketone having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A process for preparing an isobutene homopolymer or copolymer, the process comprising: reacting at least one C 1 -C 12 -hydrocarbyl alcohol with at least one aldehyde or ketone comprising from 1 to 12 carbon atoms in a protic acid-catalyzed reaction to obtain at least one full acetal, drying the at least one full acetal to obtain at least one dried full acetal, and polymerizing a reaction mixture comprising isobutene or an isobutene-comprising mono…
