Simultaneous interpenetrating network materials have been formed from the interfacial polycondensation of organotin halides with lignin and hydroxyl-capped poly(ethylene oxide) and ABA block copolymers where A is polyethylene glycol and Β is poly(dimethylsiloxane). Struc tural characterization includes Fourier transform infrared spec troscopy, Mössbauer spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and electron ionization mass spectroscopy. Ion fragments that contain moieties from the organotin, lignin, and hydroxyl-capped coreactants are found.
L l I G N I N RANKS SECOND ONLY TO SACCHARIDES AS A NATURAL, renewing material. Lignin is produced at an annual rate of about 2 X 1 0 tons and is present in the biosphere in over 10 times this amount. Lignin is produced in mills at an annual rate of about 5 Χ 10 tons (1-3). Only about 2 % of this lignin is isolated for further use; the remainder is discarded or burned as fuel. Lignin sulfonates are the most widely employed industrial surfactant (1), and they also have been reacted with a number of agents to take advantage of low 10

cost and high availability to produce feedstock. Lignin has been incorporated into phenol-formaldehyde resins (4-6) and reacted with isocyanates (7-12), alkene oxides (13-16), and epichlorohydrin-forming epoxy resins (17, 18). Even so, lignin remains a largely underused material. We recently reported on the reaction between lignin and organostannane halides (19). As expected, products derived from reaction with dihalides were cross-linked, whereas products derived from monohalides were not. The products were "brick dustlike" in nature and showed no flexibility. This lack of flexibility was due to the rigid nature of the phenol groups present in the lignin and connected through hydrogen bonding. These products are de picted in structure 1 for materials derived from trialkyltin halides. The present chapter reports attempts to produce flexible products by employing flexibilizing groups. Flexibility groups typically include methylene, ethylene oxide, and siloxane moieties (20). To increase the flexibility of lignin, hydroxyl-capped polyethylene glycol and hydroxyl-capped block copolymers of poly(ethylene oxide-co-dim ethylsiloxane-co-ethylene oxide) were investigated as potential flexibilizing agents. The emphasis in this chapter is on structural results.

of hydroxyl present in the lignin was determined by use of a modification of the procedure given in reference 21. The modifications are reported in reference 19. Analysis showed that the employed lignin had 1.14-mequiv/g phenolic hydroxyl and 8% catechol and other aromatic hydroxyls. The remainder of the lignin content was aliphatic hydroxyls with a total hydroxyl content of 3.30-mequiv/g or 59 hydroxyls for every 100 C units. The employed lignin had a weight-average molecular weight of 3500 Da and a number-average molecular weight of 1600 Da. Structure 1 has a molecular weight of about 1600 Da for the lignin portion.

Reaction Procedure. A 1-qt emulsifying jar (Kimex) placed on a blender (Waring model 1120) with a no-load stirring rate of about 18,000 rpm was employed as the reaction system. The aqueous solution that contains the lignin and added base is placed in the reaction jar. The blender is turned on and the organic phase that contains the organostannane halide is introduced into the reaction jar. After a designated time, stirring is stopped and the blender jar contents are poured into a separatory funnel. The product is collected as a precipitate, washed repeatedly with water and the organic liquid, transferred to a preweighed glass Petri dish, and air dried. Instrumentation. Potassium bromide pellets and a Fourier transform in frared (FTIR) spectrometer (Mattson Galaxy) were used to obtain infrared spectra. Mass spectroscopy (direct insertion probe, DIP) was carried out by a mass spectrometer (Kratos MS-50) operated in the electron ionization mode, 8-kV acceleration, and a 10-s per decade scan rate with variable probe tempera ture (Midwest Center for Mass Spectrometry, Lincoln, Nebraska) and a mass spectrometer (DuPont 21-491) at 1.8 kV. Elemental analysis was carried out by Galbraith Labs (Knoxville, TN). Mossbauer spectroscopy employed a tin-119-enriched BaSn0 source at 77 °K. Solubilities were determined by placing about 3 mg of sample in approxi mately 5 mL of liquid. 3
Results and Discussion To construct the reaction conditions under which the product should contain sufficient amounts of both the flexibilizing agent and the lignin, organostan nane dichlorides were reacted with the candidate hydroxyl-capped monomers to form polymeric products: R R S n C l + H O ( C H C I I — 0 ) H -> S n — 0 ( C H C H — 0) 2

The results are shown in Table I. Similar reactions were carried out with lignin. Reaction was rapid, with yields of modified material produced within seconds (Table I). The yield was calculated assuming a hypothetical repeat unit that contained a single hydroxyl group. For instance, the average molecular weight for a single C unit is 178 D a . For the A T material, the hydroxyl-based repeat unit molecular weight is 302 Da. For the dihaloorganostannanes, the repeat unit is assumed to have one organostannane moiety for every two hydroxyl-based repeat units. Reactions that utilized organostannane dichlorides with a mixture of flexibilizing agent(s) and lignin were then run under the reaction conditions described in Table I. The products are believed to be intertwined with the lignin and flexibility polymers that are connected through reaction of the organostannane (Figure 1). The following connections are possible (where F is flexible moiety and L is lignin moiety). 9

The products may or may not be interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) because the exact nature of bonding is unknown. The products do appear to be simultaneous interpenetrating networks (SINs), where connection of the two different polymers or like polymers occurs simultaneously. Although a wide variety of organostannanes was used, emphasis will be placed on the product produced from the reaction of equal molar amounts (based on molar amounts of hydroxyl units) of hydroxyl-containing reactants and dibutyltin dichloride.

Reaction Conditions. The organic phase consisted of 50 m L of C H C l and the organostannane is added to rapidly (18,000 rpm, no load) stirred aqueous solutions (50 mL) of hydroxyl-containing reactants and added sodium hydroxide for 30 s stirring time at room temperature (ca 25 °C). (For the S I N reaction, 12 mequiv of each hydroxyl-containing reactant and 24 mequiv of sodium hydroxide and dibutyltin dichloride were used; half these values were used for the SIN product that contained dilauryltin dichloride). Infrared spectral results are consistent with the presence of moieties derived from each of the three reactants. For unmodified lignin, a broad intense infrared band is present from about 3400 to 2800 cm"" and is assigned to O H stretching in alcohols. The products show only a small band in this region that is consistent with the proposed substitution product. With reference to the siloxane-containing products, silicon-carbon vibrations should appear around 800 (Si—C stretch) and 1270-1250 c m ( S i — C H deforma tion) (Table II). The second band is often partially hidden by the presence of a major band at 1269 c m present in lignin (1271 c m ) . Other silicon-asso ciated bands are given in Table II. Bands associated with the formation of the S n — Ο — R moiety are given in Table III. 3

Mass spectral results are also consistent with the presence of moieties from each of the three reactants. Tables I V - V I I I focus on tin-containing ion fragments found in the polyethylene glycol containing product with a probe temperature of 400 °C. In comparison to the lignin-organostannane products, new ion fragments (listed by the mass-to-charge ratio, m/e) are found at about 105 ( O C H C H O C H C H O ) , 116-119 ( H C C H O C H C H O C H C H ; C H O C H C H O C H C H 0 ) , and 73 ( H C C H O C H C H ) characteristic of polyethylene glycol (PEG). New tin-containing fragments characteristic of the presence of P E G are found at 207 ( B u S n O C H ) , 265 ( C H S n O C H C H O C H C H ) , 280 ( B u S n O O C H ) , and 295 ( B u S n O O C H C H ) . None of these ions is of sufficient intensity to perform an isotope-ion fragmentation pattern check. The chemical bonding of the P E G and lignin structures by the tin-containing moiety is also indicated by the presence of specific ion fragments. Some of these ion fragments are given in Tables V I to VIII. Again, the ion fragment intensities for these tin-containing fragments are too low to develop a tin isotope relationship as contained in Table V . 2

In summary, spectral (Mossbauer, infrared, and mass) evidence is consis tent with a complex product with various segments as pictured in Figure 1. A thermal analysis study of the materials was accomplished. A description of selected results follows. Lignin, under a nitrogen atmosphere, shows a complex differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermogram from ~ 50 to 450 °C. The product of lignin and dibutyltin dichloride shows a major exotherm in the 300-400 °C range with a maximum at ~ 360-370 °C. The corresponding product (except product that also contains P E G ) shows a broad exotherm that is also in the range of 300-400 °C, but has a single maxima at about 345 °C. The corresponding products (except products that contain the ethylene oxide - dim ethylsiloxane-ethylene oxide block copolymers in place of the hydroxyl-terminated polyethylene oxide) show spectra similar to the polyethyl ene oxide-containing product with a maximum at 335 °C for the 1 2 5 0 - c m block copolymer and 340 °C for the 2400-dalton block copolymer. The dilauryltin-PEG (2000)-lignin product softens when heated to about 224 °C, but the other products derived from dibutyltin dichloride do not soften until 300 °C. Most products do compress and form semiflexible sheets when pressure (about 2000 psi) is applied at room temperature. Selected results are summarized in Table X. -1

The formation of simultaneous interpenetrating network (SIN) materials is indicated by F T I R and mass spectroscopy. Although non-SIN products are inflexible, the SIN products derived from coreactants that contain ethylene oxide and dimethylsilicone flexibilizing agents do offer some flexibility. Some what flexible films were formed by application of heat and pressure.
