Abstract
A process for the continuous bromination of butyl rubber polymer by contacting the polymer with a brominating agent in a continuous flow device in which means are provided for disengaging reaction by-products and unreacted halogenating agents from the reaction mixture, by deforming and disrupting the brominated polymer surface and injecting a neutralizing agent into the polymer immediately after reaction thereby neutralizing the polymer, comprising contacting a polymer substantially free of acid scavengers, with the brominating agent at elevated temperatures the bromination reaction being carried out in an acid atmosphere, thereby producing a polymer having a substantial fraction of the bromine in the primary allylic position.
