LDPE／1,2—PBD共混体系的辐射交联

聚合物共混物经辐射交联后,具有多种优良性能,这些性能都与交联度有关。溶胶分数与辐照剂量间的关系常常被用来表征聚合物的辐射交联程度和交联行为。本文试图将共混物的组成、组份的分子链结构与其溶胶分数与辐照剂量间的关系式联系起来,从而预期共混体系的辐射交联行为。     

PEO/PVAc共混体系辐射交联反应中溶胶分数与辐照剂量间的关系

交联度对由聚合物共混物辐射交联而制备出的材料的性能影响很大,研究共混体系的辐射交联度和交联行为是十分重要的。通常,用溶胶分数与辐照剂量间的关系表征聚合物的交联度和交联行为。文献[2]发现线性聚合物的溶胶分数与辐照剂量间的关系与高分子链结构参数有关。本文试图考察共混体系的辐射交联行为是否也与高分子链结构有关,并将线性聚合物的关系式(1)推广应用到PEO/PVAc共混体系中。目前,有关这方面的研究工作还未曾见文献详细报道。

CALCULATING THE MOLECULAR INTERNAL ROTATING STERIC FACTOR OF POLYMERS BY THE RADIATION CROSSLINKING METHOD

STRUCTURE EFFECTS ON THE SOL FRACTION-DOSE RELATIONSHIP IN RADIATION CROSSLINKING OF POLYMERS

The structure effects of polymers on the relationship between sol fraction and radiation dose arediscussed in detail. In consideration of the deviation of experimental results from Charlesby-Pin-ner's and Chen-Liu-Tang's expressions relating sol fraction to radiation dose, we introduced an ex-ponent βconcerned with the structure and property parameters of a polymer (glass transition tem-perature T_g and molecular internal rotating steric factor δ) and assumed that the fracture density isproportional to R~β(R is radiation dose). Thus, a general expression, formula (9), relating solfraction to radiation dose is derived. When β=1 andβ=0.5, this expression is reduced to the above-said two expressions. Us-ing this general expression, the experimental data of a number of polymers are treated. It is shownthat the expression is in good agreement with the experimental results, βvalue is in the range of 0. 5 to1.0.     

Capillary extrusion of polypropylene/high-density polyethylene immiscible blends as studied by rheo-particle image velocimetry

The capillary extrusion of polypropylene (PP) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) immiscible blends was studied in this work by rheo-particle image velocimetry (Rheo-PIV). The PP/HDPE blends were prepared by single screw extrusion and extruded through a transparent capillary die at a temperature of 200 °C and concentrations of 80/20, 60/40, 40/60 and 20/80 wt%, respectively. PIV measurements described accurately the flow behavior of PP/HDPE blends and revealed continuous velocity profiles in the die, without macroscopic phase separation, for all the blends in the resolution range of the PIV technique. The flow behavior of all the blends was shear-thinning (power-law) type and their viscosities laid in between the values corresponding to the neat polymers and increased in an exponential way along with the concentration of the highest viscosity component in the blend (HDPE). Also, it was found that the extruded blends acquired a stratified morphology and that HDPE mitigates extrudate distortions in PP, meanwhile PP eliminates slip and flow instabilities in HDPE by migrating to the region of highest shear stresses in the die. Migration of PP to the capillary wall was corroborated by Raman spectroscopy measurements on the periphery of solid extrudates. Finally, via calculations of the density of the molten blends under flow using the velocity profiles in the die, we show that the homopolymers are compatible in the molten state and follow a simple inverse relation for their density, and an exponential one for their viscosity.     

Structure and mechanical properties controlling of elastomer modified polypropylene by compounded β/α nucleating agents

Previous work showed that there was a synergistic effect of nucleating agent (NA) and elastomer in improving the fracture resistance of isotactic polypropylene (PP), relating to the formation of large amounts of β‐PP (β‐NA nucleated system) or the decrease of the spherulites diameters of α‐PP (α‐NA nucleated system). To find the direct relation between the synergistic efficiency of NA/elastomer and the microstructures of the materials, in this work, the ethylene‐propylene‐diene terpolymer (EPDM) modified PP blends with compounded NAs (β/α) were adopted and the changes of the microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated comparatively. The results showed that, with the adjustment of the mass fraction of compounded NAs, the microstructures of PP matrix including supermolecular structure and the relative fraction of β‐PP (K_β) change accordingly. Specifically, the K_β of β‐PP was successfully adjusted in the wide range of 0–78.9%. Consequently, the stiffness and the fracture resistance of the PP/EPDM blends were easily controlled in different degrees. It is believed that this work could provide a guide map for the design and preparation of certain polymer blends satisfying certain requirement. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Shear-induced crystallization in phase-separated blends of isotactic polypropylene with ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer

The compatibility between isotactic polypropylene(i PP) and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer(EPDM) in the blends was studied. SAXS analysis indicates that i PP and EPDM phases in the binary blend are incompatible. Isothermal crystallization behaviors of i PP in phase-separated i PP/EPDM were studied by in situ POM equipped with a Linkam shear hot stage. It was found that typical spherulites of i PP were formed both in neat i PP and in i PP/EPDM blends. The radial growth rate(d R/dt) of spherulites of i PP in the blend was not influenced by EPDM phases. Further investigations on isothermal crystallization of i PP in i PP/EPDM after shear with a fixed shear time showed that the crystallization rate of i PP in the blends increased with increasing shear rates, whereas, the crystallization rate was much lower than that of neat i PP. WAXD results showed that ?-crystal i PP was formed in neat i PP as well as in i PP/EPDM blends after shearing and the percentage of ?-crystal bore a relationship to the applied shear rate. The presence of EPDM resulted in lower percentage of ?-crystal in the blends than that in neat i PP under the same constant shear conditions. SAXS experiments revealed that shear flow could induce formation of oriented lamellae in i PP and i PP in the blends, and the presence of EPDM led to a reduced fraction of oriented lamellae.     

Immobilization of bacteria in microgel grafted onto macroporous polyethylene

The development of “Green Chemistry” requires new materials to replace the conventional organic chemistry by biological catalysts, to produce fine chemicals in an environmentally friendly manner. Microbial whole cells can be directly used as biocatalysts, providing a simple and cheap methodology since enzyme isolation and purification are avoided.High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is a very stable polymer though it can be activated by gamma radiation to induce grafting. Glycidyl methacrylate was grafted onto macroporous HDPE and PP in the range of 1–6%, proportional to the initial monomer concentration. Grafted polymers were further chemically modified with ethylenediamine to generate a cationic hydrogel of micron-size thickness onto the internal polymer surfaces. Modified polymers were able to immobilize Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria that can catalyze a chemical reaction as efficient as free cells do.
