Process for selective bromination of para-alkylstyrene/isoolefin copolymers
First Claim
1. A process for producing a copolymer of isoolefin having between 4 and 7 carbon atoms and para-alkylstyrene which comprises admixing said isoolefin and said para-alkylstyrene in a copolymerization reactor under copolymerization conditions in the presence of a diluent, and a Lewis Acid catalyst, and maintaining said copolymerization reactor substantially free of impurities which can complex with said catalyst or copolymerize with said isoolefin or said para-alkylstyrene.
