Reaction Steps

Freshly recrystallized triphenyl antimony diacrylate (2 g.) was dissolved in freshly distilled methyl methacrylate (15 g.). The mixture was poured into a polymerization tube and α,α' azodiisobutyronitrile catalyst (0.01 g.) was added. The mixture was purged wih nitrogen and sealed under vacuum. The mixture was maintained in a constant temperature bath at about 55° C. for 12 hours. A clear solid polymer was formed. Preliminary results show this polymer to be self-extinguishing. The material was self-extinguishing as observed by performing qualitative burning tests in Bunsen burner flames in the laboratory.
