Abstract: The paper deals with production of a, co-methacryl-(bis-glycerin)-endomethylenehexabromotetrahydrophthalate (BNP) on the basis of anhydride of 1,4,5,6,7,7-hexabromobicyclo-[2,2,1]-hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid, glycerin and methacrylic acid. Kinetics of polycondensation is researched at 170-1900C. It is ascertained that the acid number equal 30-50 mg of KOH per 1 g of unsaturated polyesters is obtained at 170 C within 6 hours, at 180C within 3.5 hours and at 190C within 3 hours. The hardening of BNP samples with the acid number from 20 up to 80 mg of KOH per 1g of resin showed thatgelatinization rate of the styrene solutions in the presence of 3% methylethylketone hydroperoxide and of 8% cobalt naphthenate considerably increases with the reduction of the acid number. It is ascertained that gelatinization time at 20C decreases in 6-6.5 times with the transition from BNP with the acid number of 20 mg of KOH per 1g of resin to BNP with the acid number of 80 mg of KOH per 1g of resin. Keywords: polyester, self-extinguishing material, polycondensation, glycerin, methacrylic acid, gelatinization.
INTRODUCTION
Production of fire-proof and self-extinguishing materials is one of the most important problems of the present-day materials science. An ability of material to flare up and burn heavily matters most in such areas of industry as the building industry, motor-car industry, shipbuilding and aircraft building. Assemblies and mechanical parts made from such materials are thermostable and heat-resistant ones. These properties are crucial when these materials are used in aviation. The use of items made from self-extinguishing polyester resins, particularly in closed space (subway etc.), is also very important from fire safety standpoint.
It should be noted that a great quantity of self-extinguishing materials containing chlorine, bromine, antimony oxides, aluminum hydroxide, etc. is produced worldwide. In comparison with chlorine-containing materials, the bromine-containing materials are rather harmless from environmental point
of view, that is, a lesser quantity of toxic substances is formed at burning of bromine-containing materials than at burning of chlorine-containing compounds.
Fire-proof unsaturated polyester resins are mainly obtained by introducing halogen atoms into macrochain of polyester. Halogen is introduced into polyester resin either at the expense of halogen-containing initial substances or by way of the cross-linking monomer halogenation [1-4]. Bromine-containing resins are important representatives of halogen-containing unsaturated polyesters. Effectiveness of combustion deceleration of bromine-containing compounds is greater than effectiveness of chlorine-containing compounds of the same structure in 2.5-3 times [5].
Unsaturated polyesters simultaneously containing methacrylate end groups and polybromonorbornene links in main chain are of the great scientific and practical interest. At
selecting of anhydride of bromine atoms should contribute to the
polybromonorbornene dicarboxylic acids, we increase of fire-resistance of the obtained
supposed that the presence of large quantity of unsaturated polyester [5-7].

The obtained BNP is a solid substance of dark-brown color and softening temperature of 65-700C. The yield of the above mentioned product makes up 90-94% of weight of initial constituents.
The synthesized BNP is well-soluble in monomers which are usually used for obtaining of polyester resins. At dissolving in
styrene BNP forms low-viscous resins. Viscosity and special weight of BNP solutions in styrene were researched. Herewith a concentration of styrene made up 30, 40 and 50% mass.
Dependence of viscosity and special weight of solutions from the ratio of styrene and BNP is given in Table 1.

Synthesis of a,ro-methacryl-(polyglycerin)-hexabromo-endo-methylenetetrahydrophthalate was carried out as follows: 31.1 g (0.05 mole) of anhydride of 1,4,5,6,7,7-hexabromobicyclo-[2,2,1]-hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid, 0.1 mole of glycerin, 0.05 mole of methacrylic acid, 0.2 g of hydroquinone and 0.2% of para-toluene sulfonic acid from weight of initial constituents were fed into four-neck flask equipped with mechanical stirrer, thermometer, backflow condenser and Dean and Stark trap placed into thermostat. Herewith para-toluene sulfonic acid is used as a catalyst.
The stock was heated during three hours at 1900C in nitrogen atmosphere. Reaction course was controlled in line with the acid number of the product. Polycondensation reaction was discontinued when the acid number became equal to 25-40 mg KOH per gram. Upon completion of the synthesis, the flask content was neutralized by 2% water solution of soda; next it was washed by water up to neutral reaction and then dried up in the presence of sodium sulfate. The obtained light-brown resin was dried up in the vacuum desiccator at 50±50C under residual pressure of 20-25 mmHg up to constant weight. Then it was dissolved in styrene.
RESULTS
On the basis of research results of polycondensation kinetics at 170-1900C it was ascertained that the acid number equal to 3050 mg of KOH per g of unsaturated polyesters
is obtained at 170 C within 6 hours, at 1800C within 3.5 hours and at 1900C within 3 hours. ( Fiq.1)

Time dependence of polycondensation degree is shown in Fig.2. Thus, it is clear from Fig.2 that obtained dependences have got a linear character.
Consequently, condensation of the mixture of 1,4,5,6,7,7-hexabromobicyclo-
2,2,1]-hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid
anhydride and methacrylic acid with glycerin occurs in keeping with mechanisms of reactions of the second order. Reaction rate constants (K) were determined with the help of these dependences. They are correspondingly
equal to 4.0-10-2 (at 1700C), 4.67-10-2 (at 1800) and 8.6-10-2 g-mole-1-minute-1.
Mixtures prepared on the basis of styrene solutions of BNP were hardened both at room temperature and at 80-1000C. Researches of hardening of BNP samples with
the acid number from 20 up to 80 mg of KOH per 1 g of resin showed that gelatinization rate of styrene solutions in the presence of 3% methylethylketone hydroperoxide and of 8% cobalt naphthenate considerably increases with the decrease of the acid number.

Quantities of substances extracted by acetone in Fig.3. Hardening degree made up 96-98% in hardened BNP with varied acid numbers in tested samples. Soxhlet apparatus within 6-8 hours are shown
It is ascertained that gelatinization time at 200C is down in 6-6.5 times at transition from BNP with the acid number of 20 mg of KOH per 1g of resin to BNP with the acid number of 80 mg of KOH per 1g of resin. Probably, it is related to the fact that the BNP acidity influences the formation process of free radicals in the initiating system. Decreasing of
gelatinization rate of BNP with high acid number can be explained by the deactivating effect of carboxylic fragments of BNP on the formation process of free radicals in the initiating systems.
Properties of the hardened styrene solutions with various concentrations of BNP are shown in Table 2.

It is ascertained that the increase of styrene concentration from 30% up to 50% considerably influences the viscosity of BNP but at the same time the physical-mechanical properties of the hardened resins depend little on concentration of styrene in initial mixture.
Fire resistance tests of samples in accordance with the fire-tube method showed that hardened resins of BNP are self-
extinguishing materials.
Thus, synthesized polybromine-containing unsaturated polyester (BNP) can be used as self-extinguishing constructional material, potting compound, coverings and also as a component for binders used in the manufacture of laminated and pressed plastics with satisfactory physical-mechanical properties.
