| Sumario: | In this study, a high-activity Zn–Co double metal cyanide complex was synthesized and used to catalyze the ternary polymerization of carbon dioxide, propylene oxide, and itaconic anhydride to produce a new class of polypropylene carbonates characterized by excellent performance and low ether content. The number average molecular weight of the terpolymer was as high as 2.14 × 105 g·mol−1, and the polydispersity index was as high as 1.58. In the case of PPCIAn3, the 5% weight loss temperature increased by 70°C, the total weight loss temperature increased by 100°C, the tensile strength increased by 6.6 MPa, and the elongation at break decreased to 14.5% with respect to traditional polypropylene carbonate. The apparent efficiency of the catalyst was as high as 45.79 gpolymer/gcatalyst, indicating its high catalytic activity. 1H-NMR spectrometry, gel permeation chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, and in situ Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize the polymerization process and the structural properties of the obtained terpolymers. |
