相界面张力对两相聚合物熔体中分散相粒子粗化速度的影响研究

多相高分子共混物熔体中微区的发展机理,决定着体系的最终相结构．所以研究共混物熔体或溶液中的微区聚结机理已越来越显得重要和必要．作者先前的研究工作表明［１～６］,通过简单共混得到的均匀共混体系（如ＰＰ／ＥＶＡｃ）,在一定的退火热处理条件下,会自组织形成梯度相结构,即分散相粒子尺寸及其浓度从样品中心到表面逐渐增大．作者认为,这一结构的形成主要与基板对共混体系粗化过程的影响作用有关．初步认为是由于体系分散相聚结过程中,共混组分对基板的选择性浸润析出而导致了这种特殊的结构,亦可称为基板诱导相结构的形成．…     

温度梯度引起的聚合物共混物梯度相形态的研究

研究了两相不相容聚合物共混物在静态退火时,由温度梯度引起的分散相尺寸的空间分布梯度相形态,讨论了分散相体积分数和两相之间界面张力对梯度形态形成的影响.应用接触凝聚模型计算了在温度梯度作用下,分散相粒子的粗化过程.计算结果表明,界面张力越大,或者分散相体积分数越大,形成的梯度相形态越明显;并且在温度梯度存在下,分散相粒子粗化的速度加快.     

纳米SiO_2对PDMS/PIB不相容共混物在低剪切速率下凝聚行为的影响

借助在线剪切-显微装置研究了简单剪切流场下疏水纳米二氧化硅(SiO2)粒子对聚二甲基硅氧烷/聚异丁烯(PDMS/PIB=90 wt%∶10 wt%)不相容共混物实时结构演变过程的影响.研究表明,分散相尺寸的大小及其分布由粒子含量和剪切速率共同决定.少量纳米SiO2的加入能够抑制PIB分散相的凝聚,分散相的尺寸随着纳米SiO2含量的增大而减小,并且呈现出双峰分布.但随着SiO2粒子含量的进一步增加,分散相尺寸的双峰分布现象逐渐消失.SiO2的加入还导致PIB分散相对剪切速率的依赖性降低.当SiO2粒子含量低于2.5wt%时,较高的剪切速率凝聚得到的分散相的尺寸较大;当SiO2粒子含量超过2.5 wt%后,低速和高速剪切速率下凝聚得到的分散相尺寸基本相同.粒子的包覆、分散相的破碎和凝聚是出现以上现象的根本原因.

SMA、OMMT对PA6/ABS共混物聚集态结构及性能影响的研究

采用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)等手段研究了苯乙烯-马来酸酐共聚物(SMA)、有机蒙脱土(OMMT)对尼龙6(PA6)/丙烯腈-丁二烯-苯乙烯(ABS)共混物体系聚集态结构及性能的影响.结果表明,SMA与OMMT的加入均可提高PA6/ABS共混物体系的强度及模量,但加入OMMT后共混物的韧性有所下降,而PA6/ABS/SMA共混物的韧性随SMA含量的增加呈上升趋势.SMA、OMMT对PA6/ABS共混体系都有细化ABS分散相的作用,随SMA加入量的增加,ABS分散相尺寸逐渐减小,分布趋于均匀;当OMMT加入量在4 phr以内时,对ABS分散相粒径影响不大,超过4 phr后,随着OMMT含量的增加,ABS分散相的尺寸逐渐减小.XRD与TEM的分析结果表明,对PA6/OMMT(100/5)共混物,OMMT主要以剥离形态分布,同时也存在少量OMMT聚集体;PA6/ABS/OMMT共混物中OMMT则基本以剥离形态选择分布在PA6基体相中.

Dispersed Phase Size During the Blending of Relatively-Inelastic Polymer Melts

The influence of simultaneous drop breakup and drop coalescence on polymer-morphology was studied during the blending of polymer melts in a commercial counter-rotating twin-screw extruder. The polymers employed were PET and nylon 66, and these were chosen to minimize fluid elasticity and drop coalescence effects. Each material was dispersed in the other, and the dispersed phase size was determined using scanning electron microscopy. Variables examined included dispersed phase concentration, shear rate, residence time in the extruder and the addition of a compatibilizer. As has been the experience of others, it was found that coalescence was significant at all concentrations examined, and it increased with increasing dispersed phase concentration. However, coalescence could be drastically reduced with the help of a compatibilizer. It appeared that there were no elastic effects, and the measured drop size seemed to approach the Taylor limit as the dispersed phase concentration was lowered. An unexpected finding was that an increase in shear rate resulted in an increase in droplet size, especially at high concentrations.     

Morphology development in PS/LLDPE blend during and after elongational deformation

The morphology development within a PS/LLDPE blend with 5 wt % of LLDPE at various stages of uniaxial deformation and after cessation of the flow was studied. Under given deformation conditions the dispersed LLDPE particles stretch and form highly elongated fibrils in agreement with a modified capillary number model. The morphology development after deformation was investigated for two different modes—relaxation and recovery. It was found that the stress in the sample is the crucial parameter determining the morphology development. During the first part of relaxation the stress in the sample is sufficient to hold the particles in the highly elongated state and, therefore, Rayleigh breakup takes place according to the Tomotika theory. It results in considerably finer phase structure. Contrary to this, in the absence of the stress in the sample, that is, in the recovery mode, the fibrils start to shrink immediately after the deformation and after a certain time the spherical morphology is restored. During elongation and recovery no evidence of coalescence was observed. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 46: 16–27, 2008     

Continuous phase viscosity influence on maximum diameters of poly(styrene‐divinylbenzene) beads prepared by suspension polymerization

The influence of the continuous phase viscosity (μ_c) on the diameter of styrene‐divinylbenzene polymer beads was studied over a large range of viscosities at constant dissipated power. This study was based on the inertial breakup and viscous shear breakup theories for a stirred dispersion. These two theoretical models were compared with an experiment for the two highly viscous agents sucrose and acacia gum [dispersed and continuous phase viscosities (μ_d, μ_c) = 10⁻³ < μ_d/μ_c < 1]. We found that the maximum diameters of the polymer beads could not be described by an inertial breakup. The maximum diameters were in good agreement with a viscous shear breakup model for the two viscous agents in turbulent and semilaminar flows. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Breakup promotion of deformed EPDM droplets by the migration of nanoparticles during extrusion

The effect of migration of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) nanoparticles on the breakup dynamics of Ethylene-Propylene-Diene Monomer (EPDM) droplets in Polypropylene (PP) matrix during melt extrusion was investigated in situ. The breakup process of EPDM droplets was sped up dramatically when the migration of CaCO₃ nano-particles from dispersed phase to matrix was introduced to PP/EPDM melts. It was found that both the total breakup time and the shape stability of slender EPDM droplets decreased with the increase of CaCO₃ concentration. Both the maximum value in equivalent diameter d and aspect ratio AR of EPDM droplets were also reduced by increasing the composition of CaCO₃ nanoparticles. Results were discussed in consideration of interfacial tension and migration of CaCO₃ nanoparticles. Reduction in interfacial tension is mainly responsible for the improved breakup process in the two-step composites with CaCO₃ nanoparticles (<2 wt%). Higher composition of CaCO₃ (≥2 wt%) induced the CaCO₃ aggregates in the EPDM phase. These aggregates acted as stress concentration when the EPDM droplets break up.     

TLCP/PEI共混体系的流变特性与结构关系的研究

研究了VectraA950/PEI共混体系多层次结构与共混体系动态流变特性的关系.在研究液晶高分子的动态流变特性时,引入Palierne模型对动态实验结果进行预测.结果表明,TLCP分散相在高频时偏离了球形,导致Palierne模型拟合的结果与TLCP/PEI共混体系的实验结果在高频时不吻合.这与VectraA950/PEI共混体系中多层次结构在动态流场中的流变响应有关:在频率偏高时,液晶高分子取向不能完全松弛,易于形成各向异性结构,在流场作用下,易产生大形变;由于液晶高分子液滴的回缩过程很慢,在频率偏高时,产生的大形变不易回复,所以保留了纤维结构.     

Suppressed coalescence of dispersed viscous poly(methyl methacrylate) phase in polystyrene matrix by glass beads

The effect of glass beads (GB) on morphology of polystyrene (PS)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends has been studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) at different shear rates and during quiescent annealing. For the viscosity ratio of PMMA to PS greater than unity, the dispersed viscous PMMA phase in the blend coalesced during the shear flow or quiescent annealing. However, the domain size of the PMMA phase decreased significantly under shear even though a small amount of GB was added. The PMMA domain size further decreased and the size distribution became narrower with increasing GB content. According to SEM images, the quiescent coalescence of the PMMA phase was effectively inhibited by adding large amounts of GB, and the breakup of PMMA domains in shear flow was greatly favored by the high local shear prevailed between GB. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
