Alkoxylates of S-vinylthioalkanols

Abstract

Unsaturated compounds of formula (I): wherein: R1, R2, and R3 are each independently H or CH3; R4 is a linear or branched C1-C30-alkylene; R5 and R6 are each independently H, C1-C20-alkyl, C3-C15-cycloalkyl, aryl, —CH2—O—C1-C20-alkyl, or —CH2—O—C2-C20-alkenyl, where R5 and R6 may together form a C3-C6-alkylene; R7 is independently H,C1-C4-alkyl, or where R8 is C1-C22-alkyl or C2-C22-alkenyl; and n is an integer from 2 to 200. Mixtures and polymers including the unsaturated compounds of formula (I). A method for preparing polymers by free-radical polymerization of monomers including the unsaturated compounds of formula (I). A process for preparing polymers including polymer-analogous reactions. And polymers including compounds (I) as cement additives, grinding aids, hydraulic binder additives, concrete plasticizers, reactive plasticizers for preparing plastics, rubber, or latex, associative thickeners and antioxidants, or for preparing polyether siloxanes.
