Estimation of Outlet Temperature of a Flow Reactor Heated by Microwave Irradiation

Flow reactors heated by microwave irradiation attract attention. The reactors are suitable for difficult synthesis processes due to rapid heating and cooling, and easy pressurization. In order to predict the quality of the product, it is appropriate to estimate the outlet conditions of the reactor. In this paper, the outlet temperature of the flow direction is estimated by using the flow condition and dynamic thermal energy balance of the reactor.     

Predicting Glass Transition Temperature of Polyethylene/Graphene Nanocomposites by Molecular Dynamic Simulation

The glass transition temperature of polyethylene/graphene nanocomposites was investigated by molecular dynamic simulation. The specific volumes of three systems(polyethylene, polyethylene with a small graphene sheet and two small graphene sheets) were examined as a function of temperature. We found that the glass transition temperature decreases with increasing graphene. Then the van der Waals energy changes obviously with increasing graphene and the torsion energy also plays an important role in the glass transition of polymer. The radial distribution functions of the inter-molecular carbon atoms suggest the interaction between PE and graphene weakens with increasing graphene. These indicate that graphene can prompt the motion of chain segments of polymer and decrease the glass transition temperature (T_g) of polymer.     

Glass Transition Temperature and Value of the Relaxation Time at Tg in Vitreous Polymers

Summary: Many works focused on glassy polymers determine values of glass transition temperature (T_g) and an overview of the literature shows that depending on the method used, values of T_g are found different for the same material. In this paper, a review of data collected on different materials are used and interpreted in term of molecular mobility characterized by relaxation time functions. By using three independent experimental procedures (dielectric, thermally depolarized current and calorimetric), we show that the value of the glass transition and the value of the relaxation time at T_g can be correctly determined. It is also shown that the assumption: τ _(Tg) = 100 s is constant, is not correct. The protocol proposed also allows the determination of the value of the fragility index “m” of the glass forming liquid with a great accuracy.     

Investigations of Miscibility in Interpenetrated Systems of Polyurethane and Polystyrene Obtained at Room Temperature

Interpenetrating polymer systems based on crosslinked polyurethane (PU) and polystyrene (PS) were prepared at room temperature by a one-shot (in situ) method, starting from an initial homogeneous mixture of reagents via non interfering mechanisms. Both polymerizations were performed either simultaneously or one after the other. Crosslinks and/or covalent bonds between components were deliberately introduced by the addition of appropriate monomers, in order to tailor the degree of microphase separation. Depending on the formation process, transluscent or transparent films were obtained, despite the difference in refractive index of the components. The maximum of miscibility, taken as from the glass transition criterion, was obtained for sequential tightly graft interpenetrating networks.     

Dynamic Mechanical Characterization of Molecular Motion in a Wide Temperature Range of Various Polymers Containing Propylene Units

The temperature transitions for a series of flexible polymers containing propylene units were studied by dynamic mechanical spectroscopy. It was found that the gradual activation of the local motion of different structural units involved in polymers occurs with increasing temperature. Initially, the rotation of the side groups, such as side methyl groups, is activated and on further heating the main chain structural units show their local motions. It is important that the temperature interval of the appearance of the local motion of each structural unit is almost independent of the presence of other structural units. Accordingly, the polymers investigated can be divided into two groups. The activation of the local motion of the most rigid structural unit determines the glass transition in the first group of polymers. The glass transition of the polymers of the second group takes place at a higher temperature which depends on the content of side methyl groups and the intermolecular interaction. The increased influence of both these factors on the cooperative amorphous motion of polymers of the second group leads to their increased T_g values.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Temperature dependence of EPR spectrum of 2-trifluoromethylnitrobenzene radical anion in acetonitrile

Temperature dependence of the EPR spectrum of 2-trifluoromethylnitrobenzene radical anion in anhydrous acetonitrile in the temperature range 217 K ≤ T ≤ 296 K was studied and simulated. Temperature-dependent dynamic modulation of the fluorine isotropic hyperfine structure is caused by slow hindered rotation of CF₃ group with an activation energy of E _F* = 36.5±0.5 kJ mol⁻¹, which is the highest value for motions in π-type free radicals studied to date.

Colloidal Stability of TiO2 Nanoparticles: The Roles of Phosphonate Ligand Length and Solution Temperature

Surface ligands are essential tools for the stabilization of colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) in solvents. However, knowledge regarding the effects of the ligand shell, especially the ligand length, is insufficient and controversial. Here we demonstrate solution-based experiments on n-alkylphosphonate-capped TiO₂ NPs to investigate the effects of ligand length and solution temperature on colloidal stability. A robust ligand-exchange process is achieved that draws free ligands and impurities away from the colloidal solution. In the case of 8 nm anatase NPs in toluene, the dodecylphosphonate ligand provided better colloidal stability than all the other n-alkylphosphonate ligands. In addition, relaxation studies suggested there is kinetic hysteresis in the dispersion/agglomeration transition. The proposed method is applicable to a wide range of surface ligands designed to maximize the colloidal stability of NPs.     

Temperature measurements of the gaseous emission during the fracture of polystyrene: A determination of the fracture energy and fracture surface temperature

The emission of volatile species accompanying the fracture of polystyrene has been monitored as a function of time by two quadrupole mass spectrometers mounted at different distances from the sample. The resulting time-of-arrival signals were numerically modeled to yield an estimate of the energy per unit area dissipated as heat by fracture. Neutral emissions of ethyl benzene molecules (a common volatile impurity) and a noble gas (Ar? introduced by exposure) were monitored. Dissipation (fracture) energies determined ranged from 680 to 1480 J/cm², consistent with the range of energy release rates in the literature. The peak surface temperatures calculated from the measured heat dissipation ranged from 600 to 1300 K. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Time‐Temperature Independence of Aging‐Induced Relaxation Peak in the Glassy State

Cooling a polymer glass through the glass transition temperature and then holding the material temporarily at an aging temperature produces a localized relaxation peak on its dynamic mechanical spectra. Clear evidence is provided that the aging‐induced structural relaxation is frequency‐temperature insensitive. The aging‐associated retardation time, if there is any, should therefore not relate to an activation process over temperature barriers or originate from a manipulation of the retardation spectra of the glass and the β‐transition.
