The resins were characterized by various physico-chemical methods such as elemental analysis, IR, H NMR, UV-Vis and non-aqueous conduct metric titration. The thermokinetic parameters were determined using Freeman-Carroll and Sharp-Wentworth methods. The order of degradation was determined by FC method and confirmed by SW method. Keywords: Polycondensation, resin, terpolymer, thermal degradation, freeman-Carroll, sharp-wentworth, thermokinetic parameters. IntroductionTerpolymeric resin has been attracting much attention of materialists since last two decades owing to interesting properties superior than copolymer that can fulfill the demand of modern society. These include toughness, resilience, low density, high and low melting points, ability to be molded, conductivity, resistance etc. These resins reported to have an application such as high resistivity materials, thermal blankets, thermal control paints, circuit boards, lubricants, paints and insulating coatings, resistors, semiconductors, protective coating on aviator machine parts and many other applications at elevated temperature and ion-exchange. Thermally stable terpolymeric resins consequently have great potential besides the challenges regarding ease of manufacturing, thermal stability and mechanical strength, durability, separation and purification etc. In recent year considerable interest has been made to improve the quality of the polymer by co-polymerization most probably terpolymerization either by modifying methods or by introduction of a variety of functional monomers. The study of the thermal degradation of terpolymer resins has recently become subject to interest. Terpolymeric resins having good thermal stability have enhanced the scope for development of any polymeric materials1-8. Michael et al studied the thermal decomposition behavior of p-hydroxyquinoline-guanidine-formaldehyde terpolymers. Thermal decomposition curve which showed two decomposition steps (265-475C and 540-715C). Freeman-Carroll and Sharp-Wentworth methods were used to calculate activation energies and thermal stability. Singru et al studied thermal property of p-cresol-oxamide-formaldehyde terpolymers resin. Thermal study of the resin was carried out to determine its mode of decomposition and thermal stability. By using data of thermogravimetry various kinetic parameter like frequency factor (Z), free energy change (F) and apparent entropy(S*) have determined using Freeman-Carroll method10. Rahandale et al synthesized the copolymer (2, 2’-HBBF). The negative values of entropy (S) indicate that the activated polymer has a more ordered structure than the reactants and the reactions are slower than the normal11. The Freeman-Carroll and Sharp-Wentworth methods have been used to evaluate kinetic parameters for these terpolymers12-13. The present communication deals with the study of the thermokinetic parameters of PARG-I and PARG-II terpolymeric resin was determined by using Freeman-Carroll and Sharp-Wentworth methods. Material and Methods Chemicals: All chemicals were AR grade and chemically pure grade p-Hydroxyacetophenone, resorcinol and glycerol, PPA was procured from SD fine, India. Double distilled water was used for all experiments. The synthesis of PARG terpolymeric resins: The mixture of p-Hydroxyacetophenone (0.1M), Resorcinol (0.1M) and Glycerol (0.3M) was refluxed in the presence of polyphosphoric acid in oil bath at 120 -130C for 8.0 hrs with intermittent shaking. The brownish product was repeatedly washed with cold distilled water, dried in air and powered. The product was washed with many times with hot water to remove unreacted monomers. The air dried product was extracted with ether to remove copolymer which might be produced along with terpolymer. It was further purified by dissolving in 2% NaOH Research Journal of Chemical Sciences ___________________________________________________________ ISSN 2231-606XVol. 4(2), 81-86, February (2014) Res.

The PARG-I resin so obtained was filtered, washed several times with hot distilled water. The yield of terpolymer PARG-I was found to be 74%. Similarly PARG-II was synthesized and purified by the same method as above. The yield of terpolymer PARG-II was found to be 79%. The tentative structure of PARG terpolymeric resins are shown in figure 1. And synthetic details of PARG terpolymer resins are given in table 1. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of PARG resins: Thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) of PARG-I and PARG-II terpolymers resin samples were carried out by using Perkin Elmer Diamond TGA/DTA analyzer in the argon environment at Dept. of Material Science, VNIT Nagpur. The polymeric sample was allowed to heat up to 900C at linear heating rate of 10C min-1. The Freeman-Carroll and Sharp-Wentworth methods have been employed for the calculation of kinetics parameters of the newly synthesized PARG-I and PARG-II terpolymer resin with the help of the dynamic TGA curve14-29. In present work thermo kinetic parameters were determined by using the following methods. Freeman - Carroll Method (FC): In this the kinetic parameters determined by following expression, ( ) () () 1/T2.303dwLogEadt n LogWrRLogWr =-´+ DDWhere, dw/dt = Rate of change of weight with time, W = Difference between weight loss at completion of reaction and at time t, Ea = Activation energy, n = Order of reaction. Freeman-Carroll method is more suitable method since the yield is useful to determine the activation energy as well as order of reaction in single determination.

Thermogram of PARG-I and PARG-II terpolymer resins are shown in following figure 2 and figure 4 respectively. The initial loss up to 140C was due to loss of water present in PARG-I terpolymer resin. The decomposition of the resin between 143-343C was studied. The order of decomposition was found to be 2.2 as determined by Freeman-Carroll method, which was further confirmed by Sharp-Wentworth method. FC and SW method plots of PARG-I terpolymer resin is shown in figure 3. The initial loss up to 150C was due to loss of water present in PARG-II terpolymer resin. The decomposition of resin between 203-377C was studied. The order of decomposition was found to be 0.6 as determined by Freeman-Carroll method, which was further confirmed by Sharp-Wentworth method. FC and SW method plots of PARG-II terpolymer resin is shown in figure 5. Thermo kinetic parameters of PARG terpolymer resins are tabulated in table 2.

International Science Congress Association 85 Figure-5 FC plot of PARG-II (e) and SW plot of PARG-II (f) ConclusionThe values of activation energies, apparent entropy, free energy and frequency factor of degradation are determined by Freeman-Carroll and Sharp-Wentworth methods are in good agreement. Low values of frequency factor of PARG-I suggest the slow degradation as compared to PARG-II. More negative entropy values for PARG-I than PARG-II implies highly ordered structure of former than latter one owing to high value of activation energy degradation for PARG-II as compared to PARG-I, it will not be amiss to conclude that PARG-II is more thermally stable than PARG-I. However reverse order followed as for as kinetic stability is concerned. The thermokinetic parameter support to the tentative structures of Terpolymeric resins shown in figure 1.
