Investigations of the influence on the phase morphology of PP-EPDM-blends on their mechanical properties

This work covers the dependence of the mechanical properties of polymer blends on their composition and their phase morphology. Blends of EPDM-elastomers and polypropylene were prepared covering the whole concentration range. The phase morphology was varied strongly by employing different mixing techniques and its morphology was characterized by means of electron microscopy and light microscopy, as well as by x-ray scattering and calorimetry.Mechanical properties such as the complex shear modulus, the tensile modulus as well as the stress strain behavior were investigated as a function of the composition of the blends and their phase morphology. The experimental finding is that the complex modulus, the tensile modulus, the yield stress, and the ultimate stress are rather insensitive with respect to the phase morphology and vary continuosly with the composition. The elongation at break, on the other hand, as well as the impact strength were found to depend on the phase morphology and to vary discontinously with the composition. One conclusion to be drawn is that one is not always forced to control the phase morphology tightly during processing in order to obtain materials with sufficiently good mechanical properties. Rather, simple theoretical approaches, neglecting details of the phase morphology are frequently able to satisfactorily predict mechanical properties of multiphase blends.     

Tubular or subsurface morphology of octabutoxyphthalocyanine upon self-assembly in polymer matrices: effect of the casting solvent

Spontaneous phase-separated, controlled aggregate structures of photo- and electroactive molecules in polymer matrices are of interest for device fabrication. We show that the self-assembly of octabutoxyphthalocyanine (Pc) in polymer matrices leads to tubular morphology of Pc when the film is prepared with tetrachloroethane (TCE) and subsurface droplet morphology with chloroform. The same morphology is seen with both bisphenol A polycarbonate (BPAPC) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as the matrix. The subsurface morphology results from the rapid association of Pc in the polymer matrix, as the film forms. With the tubular morphology in the films prepared with TCE, percolation threshold is reached with a concentration of Pc as low as 3% (wt) in the polymer. Such phase-separated self-assembly occurs, without any annealing of the films. Even in the absence of the polymer, Pc crystallized from TCE also shows tubular morphology, whereas it exhibits a columnar morphology with chloroform. X-ray diffraction of Pc crystallized from either solvent shows the columnar stacking of the Pc molecules. However, the morphology is tubular when TCE is used. We attribute the difference in the morphology to the higher viscosity of TCE and the diffusion-limited growth, which causes the tubular morphology, whereas the instantaneous self-assembly in less-viscous chloroform leads to droplets. The solvent effect observed here could be used to tailor the morphology of such photoconductive molecules in polymer matrices.     

Electron Microscopy of Rhamnolipid (Biosurfactant) Morphology: Effects of pH, Cadmium, and Octadecane

A rhamnolipid biosurfactant produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027 is reported to increase the aqueous dispersion and biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons and to complex heavy metals. These reports indicate the potential for application of rhamnolipids in remediation of contaminated sites. Effective use of rhamnolipids will require understanding of rhamnolipid morphology and the effects of pH and organic and inorganic contaminants on that morphology. We used cryo-transmission electron microscopy to investigate the morphology of vitrified, frozen hydrated suspensions of rhamnolipid over a pH range of 5.5 to 8.0, and to determine the effect of a model alkane, octadecane, and a model heavy metal, cadmium, on rhamnolipid morphology. Micrographs clearly showed that rhamnolipid morphology was a function of pH, changing from lamellar, to vesicular, to micellar as pH increased. The effect of cadmium and octadecane on rhamnolipid morphology was determined at pH 6.8 and 7.0, where maximum cadmium complexation and maximum octadecane dispersion occurs. Cadmium seemed to stabilize rhamnolipid vesicle structures as shown by an increase in vesicle number and a decrease in vesicle diameter. In contrast, octadecane favored the micellar structure as shown by the complete absence of vesicles.     

Particle Growth during the Polymerization of Olefins on Supported Catalysts. Part 2: Current Experimental Understanding and Modeling Progresses on Particle Fragmentation,Growth, and Morphology Development

The morphology of the growing polymer particles is important in olefin polymerisation on supported catalysts. It has a significant impact on the rate of mass and energy transport, and consequently on the polymerisation rate, comonomer incorporation, and the molecular weight distribution. The ability to quantify the evolution of morphology during the polymerisation process à priori would therefore be quite useful. The morphology itself is a direct product of the fragmentation step and concurrent/subsequent expansion of the particle, both caused by the build‐up and dissipation of hydraulic forces due to the accumulation of polymer in the particle. It is influenced by the initial morphology of the support, as well as the reaction conditions and local polymer properties. The single particle models developed to describe the morphology evolution in a growing particle are reviewed here. The main assumptions, abilities, and limitations of the models are evaluated and the issues which face developing a completely predictive model are finally discussed. Despite some very interesting attempts at morphology modelling in recent years, significant progress still needs to be made in order to develop a fully predictive model of the sort.     

Chiral Morphology of Calcium Carbonate Mineralized in Agarose Gel

Calcareous crystallites with chiral morphology are difficult to obtain in vitro . Using the d ‐form of aspartic acid as crystal modifier, calcium carbonate with chiral morphology has been obtained in agarose gel. We show that the formation of the chiral morphology of crystallites does not necessarily involve complicated cellular processes.     

Size and morphology controlling of PLGA microparticles produced by electro hydrodynamic atomization

Among the various methods used to produce microparticles, electrospraying is becoming increasingly popular, and it has the advantage of control over the size, shape and morphology of the produced particles. Particle size and morphology are the main factors used to control the rate of microsphere degradation and drug diffusion. The aim of this study was to use some process and solution parameters of the electrospraying such as flow rate, collecting distance, nozzle diameter and polymer molecular weight to control size, shape and morphology of the produced particles. Tests demonstrated that the size of microparticle can be fine‐tuned by adjusting the variables of flow rate, collecting distance and nozzle diameter. Other relevant factors that can be as tuning parameters were those of solvent vapor pressure and application of a polymer mix with different molecular weights. Results showed that microparticle size increased under an increased flow rate and needle gauge setting and a decreased electrical field. Results of the tests showed that morphology of the produced microsphere could be adjusted by the aforementioned parameters. For example, by lowering solvent vapor pressure by adding solvent with a high boiling point, the morphology was changed from a textured surface to a smooth one. Molecular weight of the polymer had a significant effect on morphology, whereas polymer with a low molecular weight caused defect in the produced microparticle, and a high molecular weight produced cup‐like morphology, but a polymer mix that constituted polymers of high and low Molecular weights improved morphology of the produced particles.

Change of ras-transformed NRK-cells back to normal morphology by mycalamides A and B, antitumor agents from a marine sponge.

Mycalamide A and mycalamide B, isolated as antiviral and antitumor agents from a New Zealand sponge of the genus Mycale, converted the morphology of ras-transformed NRK-cells to normal morphology at 10 and 1 ng/ml, respectively. The effect on protein synthesis suggests that these agents converted the morphology by preferentially inhibiting the biosynthesis of p21 protein.     

High-resolution STM imaging of novel single G4-DNA molecules

The molecular morphology of long G4-DNA wires made by a novel synthetic method was, for the first time, characterized by high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM images reveal a periodic structure seen as repeating "bulbs" along the molecules. These bulbs reflect the helix morphology of the wires. The STM measurements were supported by a statistical morphology analysis of the DNA pitch length and apparent height relative to the surface. In the absence of X-ray and NMR data for these wires, the STM measurements provide a unique alternative to characterize the helix morphology.

Weld line morphology and strength of polystyrene/polyamide-6/poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) blends

The effect of weld line on the morphology and mechanical properties of 70/30 polystyrene and polyamide-6 blends with various amounts of poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (SMA) as compatibilizer was investigated. For blends without or with low content of SMA, the dispersed domains near the weld line were elongated parallel to the weld line; and the dispersed domains in weld line were spherical. But for blend with high content of SMA, the isotropic morphology was observed. And the difference of morphology at weld line caused the distinction of fracture mechanism. The tensile strength of the blend is greatly influenced by the morphology of dispersed domains at weld line. While the morphology has only slight effect on impact strength of the blends.
