Copolymer, vibration damper, vibration-damping part, and copolymer composition
View Patent ↗A copolymer excellent in vibration-damping property, flame retardancy and transparency, composed of from 20 to 100% by weight of a phosphate monomer (a) unit of the following general formula (1), from 0 to 80% by weight of a (meth)acrylate monomer (b) unit, and from 0 to 30% by weight of the other monomer (c) unit copolymerizable with them; a vibration-damping material 2 and a vibration-damping part composed of this copolymer; and a copolymer composition are disclosed: R 1 =a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R 2 ,R 3 =hydrogen atom; from C 1 to C 8 alkyl group or alkyl ether group, or aryl group; A=from C 2 to C 14 alkylene group or poly-oxyalkylene group.
1. A copolymer comprising from 20 to 100% by weight of at least one phosphate monomer (a) unit of the following general formula (1),
from 0 to 80% by weight of at least one (meth)acrylate monomer (b) unit, and from 0 to 30% by weight of the other monomer (c) unit copolymerizable with them, and the glass transition temperature of the copolymer is 80° C. or less: wherein, R 1 in the formula represents hydrogen atom or methyl group, each R 2 and R 3 independently represents hydrogen atom, or an alkyl group or an alkyl ether group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, or an aryl group, and A represents an alkylene group having from 2 to 14 carbon atoms or a polyoxyalkylene group; and wherein tan δ at 25° C. and 10 Hz is 0.5 or more.
2. A vibration-damping material comprising the copolymer of claim 1 .
3. A vibration-damping part comprising the copolymer of claim 1 .
4. An article obtained by a process which comprises:
forming the article from the copolymer as described in claim 1 in a mold or cavity.
5. A part, comprising:
the article as claimed in claim 4 ;
wherein the article is sandwiched between two hard parts.
6. A part, comprising:
the article as claimed in claim 4 ;
wherein the article fills a cavity of the part.
7. A part, comprising:
the article as claimed in claim 4 ;
wherein the article is laminated to the part.
