- Abstract
In this work, an environmentally‐friendly deep eutectic solvent (DES) was employed as a catalyst to generate polyvinyl butyral (PVB) resins from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with a weakly acidic polymer (polyacrylic acid [PAA]) as an emulsifier. Finally, high viscosity PVB resins with molecular weight of 110,000–200,000 g · mol−1 and acetalization degree above 83% were successfully synthesized, which was found to satisfy the requirements for interlayer films between safety glass. Furthermore, it was well proved that the properties of PVB resins immensely depend on the molecular structures of the PVA. The molecular weight of the PVB, independent of alcoholic degrees of the PVA, indicated an upward trend with the increase of the molecular weight of the PVA. As for these four PVBs with high molecular weight, the Tg was sensitive to the content of hydroxyl and acetal groups rather than molecular weight, associated with the inter‐ or intra‐molecule hydrogen bond between OH. PVB‐1799 and PVB‐1797 had higher Ti and Tg than that of PVB‐1788 and PVB‐1795 because the former had low contents of vinyl acetate group (VAc) and alcohol hydroxyl group (VOH). The tensile strength of PVBs was all higher than 30 Mpa, and the elongation at break was about 300% due to their high molecular weights.
