Conformational Characteristics of Poly(viny1 fluoride), Poly(fluoromethylene), and Poly(trifluoroethy1ene) Alan E. Tonelli Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey 07974. Received October 29, 1979 ABSTRACT: Conformational energy estimates are employed t o determine the conformational characteristics of poly(viny1 fluoride) (PVF), poly(fluoromethy1ene) (PFM), and poly(trifluoroethy1ene) (PTF,). Effects of stereoconfiguration and, in the case of P V F and PTF,, the presence of head-to-head:tail-to-tail (H-H:T-T) defect structures are considered. Rotational isomeric state models are developed for these polymers and used t o calculate their unperturbed dimensions, dipole moments, and conformational entropies. T h e calculated results are compared t o corresponding values found for poly(viny1idene fluoride), poly(tetrafiuoroethylene), and polyethylene, and the equilibrium flexibilities of PVF, PFM, and PTF, are discussed on this basis.

During the course of our studies concerning the 13C NMR chemical shifts of vinyl polymers we became interested in understanding the 13C chemical shifts observed in the fluorinated polymers poly(tetrafluoroethy1ene) (PTFE), poly(viny1idene fluoride) (PVFJ, poly(viny1 fluoride) (PVF), poly(fluoromethy1ene) (PFM), and poly(trifluoroethylene) (PTF,). We have demonstrated in hydrocarbon polymers, such as poly(propylene),’r2 ethylene-propylene copolymer^,^^^ poly~tyrene,~ etc., and in a chlorine-substituted vinyl polymer [poly(vinyl ~hloride)~], that the chemical shift of a given carbon atom depends on the frequency with which it is involved in three bond gauche or y interactions7-’l with other carbon or chlorine atoms. Each y interaction produces an upfield chemical shift on the order of 3-5 ppm. Enumeration of the number and kind of y interactions involving a given carbon atom permits1’ a determination of its relative 13C chemical shift. Bond rotation probabilities obtained from the rotational isomeric state (RIS) mode112J3of a polymer chain lead to just such an accounting of possible y interactions. With knowledge of the conformational characteristics of these polymers it was possible to understand their stereosequence-dependent 13C chemical shifts. Before the 0024-9297/80/2213-0734$01.00/0

same approach can be attempted for fluorinated polymers, we must possess information concerning their conformational characteristics. The conformational characteristics of PTFE14 and PVF215have been determined through approximate potential energy estimates16 and checked against experimentally determined unperturbed d i m e n ~ i o n s ’ ~and J~ dipole mornent~.’~ However, neither PVF nor PFM nor PTF, have been studied from a conformational point of view. Such a study is described in this report, where the conformational energies of PVF, PFM, and PTF3 chain fragments of various stereosequence are calculated, and where the possibility of head-to-head:tail-to-tail (H-H:T-T) addition of monomer units in PVF and PTF3is permitted and considered. From the conformational energies, RIS models are developed, and the conformationally sensitive properties (r2),, and ( P ~ ) i.e., ~ , the mean-square unperturbed dimensions and dipole moments, and the conformational entropies, S,, are calculated.

(PTF3)both head-to-tail (H-T) HFH,FHF (FHF,HFH) HFF,HHF F H H (HHF and H-H:T-T F F H FHH,FFH HFF) chain fragments were considered. Conformational energies were calculated for each of these fragments as a function of the rotation angles $1 and &, using the approximate potential energy f u n c t i o n ~ ' ~ J ~ previously employed14J5in the analysis of the conformational characteristics of PVFz and PTFE. An intrinsic threefold torsional potential with a barrier height of 3.0 kcal/mol is assumed to separate three rotational minima a t & or c $ ~ = 0 (trans, t), 4~120' (gauche *, g*). A 6-12 potential describes nonbonded van der Waals interactions, and partial charged5 of f0.2 esu are assigned to the C and F atoms, respectively, terminating C-F bonds to account for nonbonded electrostatic interactions. A dielectric constant E = 6 was selected15 to mediate the electrostatic interactions. Bond lengths of 1.53, 1.36, and 1.10 A were used for C-C, C-F, and C-H bonds, and the valence anglesz0LCCC = 112 (PVF), 116 (PTF3), 117.5' (PFM), LHCF = LFCF = 106', and LHCH = 109.5' were employed. Both rotation angles were stepped in 20' increments over their entire ranges. Evaluation of RIS Models Statistical weights SW,, were evaluated for each of the nine pair-wise dependent rotational states CUP = tt,tg*g*tg*g*, and g'g' from the calculated conformational energies.

Statistical weight matrices U were then constructed at a given temperature. For PVF, as an example, g'

One such statistical weight matrix was constructed for each different chain fragment (see Figure 1)considered in PVF, PFM, and PTF, at T = 0,50,100,150, and 200 'C. These matrices define the RIS model appropriate to each polymer.

Calculation of Dimensions, Dipole Moments, and Conformational Entropies Matrix multiplication technique^'^ were used to calculate mean-square end-to-end distances ( r2)o,dipole moments ( F * ) ~ and , conformational entropies S , of isolated and unperturbed PVF, PFM, and PTF3 chains. A C-F bond dipole momentz1 of 1.8 D was used in the calculation of (p2),,. Chains of 400-500 backbone bonds were considered. Each chain was generated a bond at a time by Monte-Carlo techniques and checked for the effects of stereosequence and (H-H:T-T) defect content at each bond addition. Ten Monte-Carlo chains were generated for each defect content and each degree of stereoregularity, and (r2)o,( F ' ) ~ ,and S , were averaged over the same ensemble of chains. Calculated Results Figures 2-6 present conformational energy maps for representative fragments of the PVF and P F M chains. Statistical weight matrices for all possible PVF, PFM, and PTF3 chain fragments are given in the Appendix at T = 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 'C. The dimensions and dipole moments presented as the ratios (r2)o/n12and ( ~ ~ ) ~ / n r n ~ , where n is the number of bonds in the chain, l2 is the square of the C-C bond length, and m2 is the square of the C-F bond dipole moment (l/z and 3 / 2 the square for PVF and PTF3), appear in Tables I and 11.

thermore the dimensions are also insensitive to the level of H-H:T-T addition. The characteristic ratios CR = (r2)o/n12calculated for PVF do not vary more than 10-15% over the entire spectrum of stereoregularity even allowing for as many as 30% H-H:T-T additions. Dipole moment ratios CM = (k2)o/nm2, although independent of stereosequence, do decrease 20-25% as the H-H:T-T content reaches 20-30%. Neither property can be usefully employed to determine PVF stereoregularity, and they both fail to exhibit any marked degree of sensitivity to H-H:T-T defect content. These two conformational properties cannot be expected to characterize the microstructure of PVF.

Both CR and CM are sensitive to chain stereoregularity in PFM. As the probability of meso ( m )dyad placement decreases from 1.0 to 0.0, CR and CM increase 2-3- and 4-6-fold, respectively. Clearly, either property can be expected to successfully characterize the stereoregularity of P F M chains. Neither CR nor CM are sensitive to chain stereoregularity in PTF3 As for PVF chains, only CM is significantly affected by H-H:T-T addition and may possibly be used to characterize the defect content of PTF, chains. Inspection of the statistical weight matrices of PVF (see Appendix) indicates that several conformations, or pairs of bond rotations, are likely regardless of stereosequence or defect content. Also note the similarities among the conformational energy maps of PVF fragments (Figures 2-5) corresponding to both H-T and H-H:T-T addition of monomer units. The similar degree of conformational diversity among all possible PVF chain fragments produces the nearly constant dimensions calculated for PVF chains of any likely structure. These comments are also applicable to PTF,, with the additional observation that the larger dimensions [CR = 9.5 (PTF,), 6.0 (PVF)] result from a significant increase in the probability of the all-trans ( t ) ,planar zigzag conformation. The PFM chain, on the other hand, increasingly prefers the extended tt conformation as the meso ( m )placement of dyads decreases. (The all-meso chain prefers the tg*g*t conformations, which result in compact chain conformations.) Hence, the all-racemic (r) chain has dimensions 2-3 times as large as all-meso ( m )PFM. PVF, PFM, and PTF, are all expected to contract with increasing temperature as indicated by the temperature coefficients of the dimensions, d In (r2)o/dT,presented in Tables I11 and IV. Stereosequence and defect content have little effect on the ability of these polymer chains to adopt more compact conformations as the temperature is raised. It may be of interest to compare the conformational characteristics of PVF, PFM and PTF, with those of PVF2, PTFE, and polyethylene (PE) to learn how the increasing

fluorination of PE affects equilibrium chain extension. In Table V the calculated dimensions (CR)and their temperature coefficients are presented for PE, PVF, PFM, PVF,, PTF3, and PTFE. With the exceptions of the completely fluorinated member (PTFE) and predominantly isotactic P F M chains (with P M = 0.0-0.2), all members of this polymer series have dimensions which are remarkably similar, i.e., CR = 5-9. In addition, each polymer chain contracts with increasing temperature to adopt more compact conformations. This chain contraction is characterized by d In (P),/dT = -(0.0014.002) K-' for each of these polymers. Although the conformational characteristics of PVF, PFM, and PTF3chains remain to be tested experimentally, it would appear that except for PTFE all of the polymers in this series possess comparable equilibrium extensions as manifested by their unperturbed dimensions. In addition, Table VI presents conformational entropies, s,, c a l c ~ l a t e at d ~150 ~ ~"C ~ ~for each polymer. Conformational entropy provides a measure of the number and frequency of occurrence of the various bond rotational states. Thus, CR and S,, which are two distinctly differentz4probes of polymer chain conformations, both indicate that this series of polymers, with the exception of PTFE, possesses similar conformational characteristic^.^^
