    [0001] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the use of a specific peroxide, as well as a mixture of peroxides including this specific peroxide, for the crosslinking of crosslinkable polymer. a homopolymer or copolymer of ethylene and in particular the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) or a mixture of EVA with another homo- or copolymer of ethylene. The present invention also relates to a crosslinkable composition comprising a homopolymer or copolymer of ethylene and in particular the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) and this specific peroxide or the aforesaid mixture of peroxides. The present invention also relates to a process for crosslinking a homopolymer or copolymer of ethylene and in particular ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) State of the art It is known to crosslink the homopolymers or copolymers of ethylene and in particular the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) by placing them in the presence of free radical initiating peroxides such as O- (2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O-tert-butyl-tert-butyl. This O-(2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O-(2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate peroxide is manufactured and sold by the Applicant under the name Luperoe TBEC. In some applications, particularly the production of films encapsulating electrical components of photovoltaic modules (solar panels), it is absolutely essential that the crosslinked film provides maximum electrical resistivity to completely isolate the electrical circuits from the environment.
    [0002] 3024151 2 In such an application (encapsulants of photovoltaic modules), EVA is very commonly used and represents a majority of the market at the moment. The EVA is necessarily crosslinked so that it acquires in particular the thermomechanical properties satisfactory for this application. Indeed, it is important, during a crosslinking process of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) to maintain a good crosslinking density. Indeed, the crosslinking density is an indication of the mechanical properties of the finished product. Thus, if the crosslinking density is too low, the finished product can be characterized by poor breaking strength and tear strength or even insufficient strength. However, the crosslinking of EVA with O- (2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O-tert-butyl, which is conventionally carried out at present, has the consequence that the crosslinked polymer has unsatisfactory electrical insulation properties. Moreover, the crosslinking times, in particular the EVA, obtained by such processes using O- (2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O-tert-butyl are relatively long. This results in a loss of productivity for industries transforming these elastomers into finished products.
    [0003] Finally, the amount of peroxide required for this crosslinking is an important factor, not only with regard to the peroxide cost per se but also due to the degradation products which necessarily result from a crosslinking process. Considering in particular all the above-mentioned characteristics and the disadvantages or weaknesses inherent to O-(2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O-(2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate as crosslinking agent of crosslinkable compositions of elastomeric polymers such as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA) there is a real need to find a substitute crosslinking agent, alone or in mixture.
    [0004] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The Applicant has now surprisingly discovered that by using a peroxide of the same family as O- (2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O 2 -tert-butyl, the disadvantages of the latter were solved. and that, in addition, very significant improvements were achieved with respect to certain additional features. This result is all the more surprising that the crosslinking agent has a single branch R different from the O-(210 ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O-tert-butyl peroxide conventionally used, namely the R branching presented below: ## STR2 ## 0 CR TBEC: R = 2-ethylhexyl TBIC: R = isopropyl C 15 TAEC: R = 2-ethylhexyl TA-IPC: R = isopropyl The peroxide discovered by the Applicant for the particular application of the crosslinking of polymers including EVA is 00-tert-butyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate so that the above-mentioned R group is as follows: CH 3 CH = isopropyl CH 3.
    [0005] In the case of 00-tert-butyl O- (2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate, the radical R is as follows: ## STR2 ## C 1 -C 2 Cl 2 H 2 -ethylhexyl CH 2 (CIL 3) C-1-13 therefore, it is by no means obvious to a person skilled in the art that two structurally close peroxides may have, in the crosslinking of functional polymers and in particular EVA, properties / qualities so different, for the benefit of 00-tert- Butyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate or 00-tert-amyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate Thus, the present invention relates firstly to the use of peroxide (s) for the crosslinking of at least one polymer, said polymer consisting of a homopolymer or ethylene copolymer and in particular the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) or a mixture of EVA with another homo- or copolymer of ethylene, characterized in that the peroxide comprises 00-tert- butyl 0-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate or 0 0-tert-amyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate (TA-IPC). In the following, the invention is presented in connection with the TBIC because this component is commercially available. Nevertheless, the experiments were also conducted with the TA-IPC and the applicant found, for the latter, laboratory results and properties at least as satisfactory as with the TBIC.
    [0006] Advantageously, the peroxide further comprises 00-tert-butyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TBEC) or OO-tert-amyl-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TAEC). According to a possibility offered by the invention, the only peroxides used for the crosslinking are the two above-mentioned peroxides and combinations thereof. Thus, in this case, the peroxide consists of a mixture of 00- tert-butyl 0-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate and 00-tert-butyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate or 00-tert-amyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (mixture "TBIC + TBEC" or "TBIC + TAEC"), or 00-tert-amyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate and 00-tert-butyl-0-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate or 00-tert-arny1- 0-2ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (mixture "TA-IPC + TBEC" or "TA-IPC + TAEC"), preferably in a weight ratio of 99% -1% to 1% -99% of these two peroxides forming said mixture, more preferably 40% -60% to 60% 40% of these two peroxides forming said mixture, and even more preferably in a weight ratio of 45% -55% to 55% -45% of these two peroxides forming said mixed. Advantageously, the 0-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate or 00-tert-amyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate is in diluted form, preferably present in an amount greater than 50% in the dilution, even more preferably present in a greater than 60% in the dilution. In the following, for convenience, 0- (2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate O-tert-butyl will often be referred to as TBEC while 0-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate O-tert-butyl will be referred to by the abbreviation TBIC. Note that this writing facility also applies for TA-IPC and TAEC. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a crosslinkable composition comprising at least one ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer and at least one peroxide, characterized in that the peroxide comprises 0-isopropyl-tert-butyl monoperoxycarbonate or 00-tert-amyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate. Other advantageous features of the invention are hereinafter described: advantageously, the peroxide also comprises O-tert-butyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TBEC) or O-tert-amyl 0-2ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TAEC); according to a possibility offered by the invention, the peroxide consists of a mixture of O-isopropyl-tert-butyl-monoperoxycarbonate and O-tert-amyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TBIC + TBEC) or tert-amyl-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TBIC + TAEC), or 00-tert-amyl O -isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate and 00-tert-butyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate or 00-tert-amyl-2-ethyl hexyl Monoperoxycarbonate (mixture "TA-IPC + TBEC" or "TA-IPC + TAEC"), preferably in a weight ratio of 40% to 60% of these two peroxides forming said mixture, more preferably in a mass ratio of 45% to 55% of these two peroxides forming said mixture; in the case where 00-tert-butyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate or O-tert-amyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate (TA-IPC) is the only peroxide present in the composition, the latter represents between 0.1% and 3%. %, preferably between 0.2% and 2%, of the mass quantity of the polymer present in said composition; in the case where 00-tert-butyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate or O-tert-amyl O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate (TA-IPC) is not the only peroxide used for the crosslinking, the mixture of peroxides represents between 0.2% and 4%, preferably between 0.5% and 2.5%, of the mass amount of the polymer present in said composition; preferably, the aforesaid ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) is present in said composition at a content ranging from 70 to 99.9%, preferably from 97 to 99%, by weight, relative to the weight of the composition; according to a possibility offered by the invention, depending on the applications chosen for the crosslinked polymer, the composition further comprises one or more coagents, or promoters, for crosslinking.

It will be noted that, hereinafter, the invention is presented, when there is a mixture of peroxides, with the additional peroxide consisting of 00-tert-butyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TBEC) but it is of course, the Applicant has also tested 00-tert-amyl-2-O-hexyl monoperoxycarbonate (TAEC) and that the latter functions at least as satisfactorily as the TBEC when used in a mixture with the TBIC or TA-IPC . The present invention also relates to a process for producing a crosslinked polymer film, characterized in that it comprises at least the following steps: a) extrusion in the form of a film of a crosslinkable composition as defined above; above, - b) crosslinking said crosslinkable composition after said extrusion step a) for a period of at most twenty minutes, preferably less than fifteen minutes. Description of the attached Figures The following description is given purely by way of non-limiting illustration with reference to the appended figures, in which: FIG. 1 shows the crosslinking density (XL) of an EVA film as a function of dosage for different peroxides; FIG. 2 shows the (electrical) volume resistivity (VR) for various compositions, from pure EVA (uncrosslinked) to EVA mixtures having been crosslinked with TBEC and TBIC; FIG. 3 shows the evolution of the VR as a function of the TBIC dosage; FIG. 4 shows the evolution of the VR as a function of the isododecane content (conventional hydrocarbon solvent for peroxides); FIG. 5 shows the volume resistivity of a TBIC cross-linked EVA polymer as a function of the crosslinking time; FIG. 6 shows the evolution of the VR as a function of the TBIC dosage. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION As regards both the peroxides and the preferred crosslinked polymer, namely EVA, all these products are well known to those skilled in the art, both in their manufacture and their commercial availability. One can simply note the following additional information regarding these products.
    [0007] Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers suitable for the present invention are, for example, the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers sold respectively under the trade names "Evatane 24-03, 24-03 SA, 28-03, 28-05. , 28-25, 28-40, 28-150, 28-420, 28800, 33-15, 33-25, 33-45, 33-45 PV, 33-400, 34-50 PV, by the company Arkema. The vinyl acetate content of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers suitable for the present invention may vary: for example, these copolymers may be low in vinyl acetate or high in vinyl acetate. O-isopropyl monoperoxycarbonate O-tert-butyl is commercially sold, in particular by the Applicant, under the name Luperoe TBIC. At present, this form of peroxide is found up to concentrations of up to 77%, the solvent being a hydrocarbon such as for example isododecane. The applicant sells, for example, this peroxide under the name Luperoe TBIC M75, that is to say 75% present in isododecane. The fact that this peroxide is not manufactured or sold in pure or near-pure form is solely due to safety requirements (related to its intrinsic thermo-sensitivity) likely to evolve over time. In the following, the tested examples are made with Luperox TBIC M75, but it is understood that in the laboratory, higher amounts of 0-isopropyl-tert-butyl monoperoxycarbonate (greater than 75%) have been tested. the results presented with this product were validated with different rates (in particular higher TBIC levels which are not repeated here in the accompanying figures). O-tert-butyl-O- (2-ethylhexyl) monoperoxycarbonate is sold commercially, in particular by the applicant, under the name Luperoe TBEC. At present, this peroxide is conventionally found in pure (or almost pure) or even diluted form. The preparation of the crosslinked polymer according to the invention is quite conventional and well known to those skilled in the art. The only point to note is that the heating time required for the crosslinking is here reduced, and that a lesser amount of peroxide is necessary to achieve the objectives set, especially with regard to the criterion of volume resistivity.
    [0008] In particular, but not exclusively, in the application of the crosslinked polymer according to the invention to an encapsulant of a photovoltaic module, the film may comprise one or more functional adjuvants in the composition at a maximum height. 30% by weight of the composition and will be chosen more particularly from the compounds mentioned below or a mixture of these compounds. One or more coagents, or promoters, of crosslinking may be added to the composition according to the invention in order to improve the density and the kinetics of crosslinking. As multi-substituted aromatic type crosslinking promoter, there may be mentioned divinylbenzene, diisopropenyl benzene, alpha methylstyrene, alpha-methylstyrene dimer and triallyl trimellitate. As the cross-linked methacrylate crosslinking promoter, there may be mentioned ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, phenylene dimethacrylate, diethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, tetraethylene glycol dimethacrylate, polyethylene glycol 200 dimethacrylate, polyethylene glycol 400 dimethacrylate, 1, 3-butanediol dimethacrylate, 1,4-butanediol dimethacrylate, 1,6-hexanediol dimethacrylate, 1,12-dodecanediol dimethacrylate, 1,3-glycerol dimethacrylate, diurethane dimethacrylate and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate. The cross-linking promoter based on multi-substituted methacrylate is advantageously used, in particular ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate. As a cross-substituted acrylate crosslinking promoter, mention may be made of bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate, dipropylene glycol diacrylate, tripropylene glycol diacrylate, polyethylene glycol 600 diacrylate, ethylene glycol diacrylate, diethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, tetraethylene glycol diacrylate, neopentyl glycol ethoxylate diacrylate, butanediol diacrylate, hexanediol diacrylate, aliphatic urethane diacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate, trimethylolpropane ethoxylate triacrylate, trimethylolpropane propoxylate triacrylate, glycerol propoxylate triacrylate, aliphatic urethane triacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate and dipentaerythritol 3024151 12 pentaacrylate. As the nitrogen-containing crosslinking promoter, mention may be made of triallyl cyanurate (TAC), triallyl isocyanurate (TAIC) and N, N'-methylenimidaleimide. Mention may also be made of multi-substituted monomers with vinyl groups, butadiene, chloroprene and isoprene.
    [0009] Plasticizers may also be added to the composition according to the invention to facilitate the implementation and improve the productivity of the method of manufacturing the composition and structures. Examples are paraffinic, aromatic or naphthalenic mineral oils which also make it possible to improve the adhesiveness of the composition 10 according to the invention. Mention may also be made, as plasticizer, of phthalates, azelates, adipates and ticresyl phosphate. In the same manner, adhesion promoters, although not necessary, may be advantageously added to improve the adhesiveness of the composition when it is to be particularly high.
    [0010] The adhesion promoter is a non-polymeric ingredient; it can be organic, crystalline, mineral and more preferably semi-mineral semiorganic. Among these, mention may be made of titanates or organic silanes, for example monoalkyl titanates, trichlorosilanes and trialkoxysilanes. It can also be provided that these adhesion promoters 20 are directly grafted onto the first or second copolymer by a technique well known to those skilled in the art, for example via reactive extrusion. The UV radiation being capable of causing a slight yellowing of the thermoplastic compositions, UV stabilizers and UV absorbers (these compounds being generally referred to as anti-UV agents) such as benzotriazole, benzophenone and the other hindered amines, may be added in some applications where such a phenomenon should be avoided. These compounds may for example be based on benzophenone or benzotriazole. They may be added in amounts less than 10% by weight of the total mass of the composition and preferably from 0.1 to 5%. Antioxidants may also be added to limit yellowing in the manufacture of the composition such as phosphorus compounds (phosphonites and / or phosphites) and hindered phenolics. These antioxidants may be added in amounts of less than 10% by weight of the total mass of the composition and preferably of 0.05 to 5%. An antioxidant preferred in the context of the present invention may for example consist of (1,2-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline), known by the abbreviation TMQ. In the same way, in some applications, flame retardants can also be added to the composition according to the invention. These agents may be halogenated or non-halogenated. Among the halogenated agents, mention may be made of brominated products. Phosphorus-based additives such as ammonium polyphosphate, aluminum phosphinates and phosphonates, melamine cyanurate, pentaerythritol, zeolites and mixtures of these agents may also be used as the non-halogenated agent. The composition may comprise these agents in amounts typically ranging from 3 to 30% based on the total weight of the composition. It is also possible to add coloring or brightening compounds. Pigments such as, for example, titanium dioxide or zinc oxide may also be added to the composition in proportions generally ranging from 5 to 10% relative to the total weight of the composition. Reinforcing fillers such as talc, glass fibers, carbon fibers, montmorillonites, carbon nanotubes and carbon black can also be added to the composition in proportions generally ranging from 2.5 to 30%. more preferably up to 10%, based on the total mass of the composition.
    [0011] Materials used to form the tested formulations: TBEC stands for OO-tert-butyl-O-2-ethyl hexyl monoperoxycarbonate. As previously discussed, it is provided in the examples illustrating the present application by Luperox TBEC manufactured and sold by the Applicant. TBIC means 0-isopropyl-tert-butyl monoperoxycarbonate. As previously discussed, Luferoe TBIC M75 illustrates that the TBIC is 75% present in a solution of isododecane in the examples illustrating the present application. In the various figures, taken from some of the tests carried out by the applicant, the TBIC in particular is annotated with a variable dilution index, in particular at 40%, 50% or 60%, which corresponds respectively to an abbreviation M40, M50 and M60.
    [0012] P is tert-butylperoxybenzoate (peroxide) and is classically pure. It is marketed by the applicant under the name Luperox P. 101 means 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di (tert-butylperoxy) hexane and is sold classically pure or near-pure. This peroxide is sold by the Applicant under the name Luperoe 101. 270 means tert-butylperoxy-3,5,5-trimethylhexanoate and is typically sold as pure or near pure. This peroxide is sold by the applicant under the name Luperoe 270.
    [0013] 531 M80 is 1,1-di (tert-amyl peroxy) -cyclohexane diluted to 80% in isododecane, for example. This peroxide is sold by the applicant under the name Luperoe 531M80.
    [0014] 331 M50 is 1,1-di (tert-butylperoxy) -cyclohexane diluted to 50% in isododecane, for example. This peroxide is sold by the applicant under the name Luperoe 331M50.
    [0015] JWEB50 means poly (t-butyl) -peroxycarbonate polyether diluted to 50% in ethyl benzene for example. This peroxide is sold by the applicant under the name Luperox JWEB50. EVA means an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. The same type of EVA is used for all experiments and tests to ensure that the results are not dependent on the type of EVA used. By way of example, as mentioned previously, mention may be made of EVATANE® 18-150 sold by the Applicant and consisting of an EVA with 18% Vinyl Acetate and 150 as a Melt Flow Index (MFI) value measured according to the ASTM standard. 1238 or the EVATANE® 40-55 sold by the Applicant and consisting of an EVA with 40% Vinyl Acetate and 55 as a Melt Flow Index (MFI) measured according to ASTM 1238. Tests performed and results: 15 In all the figures, the term "phr" means "per hundred resin" in other words "per hundred of resin". Thus, by way of example, considering 1 phr for a given peroxide, this means that in the tested composition there is present 1 unit (by weight) of this peroxide per 100 units of the polymer to be crosslinked.
    [0016] Figure 1 shows the crosslinking density measurements of an EVA peroxide. The TBEC is considered the reference for crosslinking at 3.38 dNm for 1 phr. It is noted that, with respect to this TBEC peroxide conventionally used to crosslink EVA, the other conventional peroxides P, 101, 270, 531, 80, 331, 50 and JWEB50 must be present in higher or even very (very) higher amounts. to obtain the same level of crosslinking as for the TBEC. Only the TBIC, to obtain the same level of crosslinking, requires a smaller amount, in this case 0.9 phr. Thus, the use of the TBIC makes it possible to reduce the costs (because of a smaller amount) as well as the level of volatile organic compounds from the peroxide decomposition even in the crosslinked EVA. Figure 2 provides two main conclusions. First of all, the very small amount of TBIC (0.2 phr) makes it possible to drastically increase the volume resistivity of the crosslinked polymer and the TBIC alone has much better results than the TBEC alone. Finally, it will also be noted that an almost equivalent (50-50) mixture of TBIC and TBEC has a synergistic effect since the results observed on this VR test are the best. Figure 3 confirms the conclusion that the TBIC and TBEC mixture, in respective specific proportions, shows the best results on the VR test.
    [0017] FIG. 4 makes it possible in particular to establish that the diluent or solvent, in this case isododecane, has no impact on the measurement of volume resistivity. It will be noted here that the solvent used for the TBIC is isododecane, but that other organic solvents have been tested and that the results are identical or almost identical to those presented here. FIG. 5 mainly makes it possible to establish the fact that the TBIC rapidly crosslinks the polymer and that the shorter the crosslinking time, the higher the level of volume resistivity, which allows a precise determination of the level of resistivity in volume desired for the polymer to be crosslinked. It should be noted here that, although all the tests and tests presented in the context of this patent application were carried out with EVA, many other polymers, usually cross-linked, were tested in admixture with EVA (in a fraction). of the latter sometimes low or very low), or even without EVA (replaced by another polymer), and all have results or conclusions (with respect to the TBIC) identical or almost identical. Figure 6 again shows that small amounts of TBIC make it possible to obtain the best results on the VR test. It is understood here that the amount of TBIC defined as preferred or even more preferred domains is certainly a function of this result on the VR test but also other parameters such as in particular the thermomechanical properties of the crosslinked polymer. 10
