Cloisite 15Aº nanoclay as an effective PTC for the epoxidation of hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB)

A simple method is reported for the epoxidation of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) by using in-situ generated dimethyl dioxirane (DMD) as an oxidant and Cloisite 15Aº nanoclay as a phase-transfer catalyst (PTC). In order to find the optimum reaction conditions, real time analyses of the pro...
