HDPE／LDPE共混体系的晶性研究

用DSC和WAXD方法考察了高密度聚乙烯和低密度聚乙烯共混体系(HDPE/LDPE)的结晶性能。结果表明,在共混物中HDPE含量大于50%时,共混物只出现HDPE的熔融峰,且熔融温度随HDPE含量减小而降低;LDPE含量大于50%时,DSC图上只出现熔点介于HDPE和LDPE之间的新熔融峰。DSC和WAXD法所测结晶度均偏离共混物的线性加和值,而晶胞参数则随共混物组成变化出现最小值,表明HDPE和LDPE可以形成共晶相容体系。Raman光谱测得介晶相αb值的膨胀,支持这一观点。     

天然橡胶改性研究进展

天然橡胶(NR)作为一种可再生资源,因其优异的综合性能,广泛应用于航天、军工、医用弹性体等领域。但是,NR是非极性不饱和橡胶,其耐油、耐有机溶剂、耐热氧老化、耐臭氧和抗紫外线性能较差,限制了它在一些特殊场合的应用。近年来,天然橡胶的改性引起了广泛的关注。本文从化学改性、共混改性和无机纳米改性三个方面介绍近几年的研究进展,并对未来天然橡胶改性做出了展望。

Effect of sol–gel derived in situ silica on the morphology and mechanical behavior of natural rubber and acrylonitrile butadiene rubber blends

Silica particles were generated and grown in situ by sol–gel method into rubber blends comprised of natural rubber (NR) and acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) at various blend ratios. Silica formed into rubber matrix was amorphous in nature. Amount of in situ silica increased with increase in natural rubber proportion in the blends during the sol–gel process. Morphology studies showed that the generated in situ silica were nanoparticles of different shapes and sizes mostly grown into the NR phase of the blends. In situ silica filled NR/NBR blend composites showed improvement in the mechanical and dynamic mechanical behaviors in comparison to those of the unfilled and externally filled NR/NBR blend composites. For the NR/NBR blend at 40/60 composition, in particular, the improvement was appreciable where size and dispersion of the silica particles into the rubber matrix were found to be more uniform. Dynamic mechanical analysis revealed a strong rubber–in situ silica interaction as indicated by a positive shift of the glass transition temperature of both the rubber phases in the blends.     

Compatibilized natural rubber/recycled ethylene-propylene-diene rubber blends by biocompatibilizer

Biocompatibilizer-based refined, bleached, deodorized palm stearin was successfully used as compatibilizer for natural rubber/recycled ethylene–propylene–diene rubber (NR/R-EPDM) blends. It seems effective in improving the state of cure, tensile properties, as well as the swelling resistance and morphology of the blends, indicating an improvement in compatibility between the NR matrix and R-EPDM rendered by biocompatibilizer. This was clearly verified by the dynamic mechanical properties of the blends. The dynamic responses obtained were clearly corresponding to the swelling result. It proves that the cross-link density plays a major role in the changes of storage modulus and degree of entanglement.     

Styrenated phenol modified nanosilica for improved thermo-oxidative and mechanical properties of natural rubber

The present work aims to prepare thermal and oxidation resistant Natural Rubber (NR) composites using antioxidant-modified nanosilica (MNS). The thermo-oxidative aging performance of the composites was evaluated by the variations in mechanical properties after aging at 100 °C for 24 h. The performance was further monitored through Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric Analysis, and Dynamic Mechanical Analysis. NR nanocomposite with 1–7.5 phr nanosilica (NS) and 3 phr MNS were prepared and its rheological properties were studied. A comparative study of the theoretical models yielded that modified Guth-Gold equation predicted Young's modulus better than other models. Thermal stability of natural rubber MNS composite was improved by 10 °C with pre-eminent mechanical properties like tensile strength and heat build-up. A linear relationship of compression set with modulus of all composites were also established. Equilibrium swelling test revealed improved crosslink density in NR MNS composite. The strong interaction between antioxidant and nanosilica enabled low migration of antioxidant in NR MNS composite. Hence its protective function after aging showed more effective than NR NS composites. These versatile functional properties of NR MNS composite suggest its potential application in electrical, electronic and high performance rubber products.     

Quantitative analysis of isoprene units in natural rubber and synthetic polyisoprene using 1H-NMR spectroscopy with an internal standard

Isoprene units in natural rubber (NR) and its synthetic analogues were quantified by ¹H-NMR spectroscopy using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as an internal standard. The effect of PEG and rubber concentrations, molar ratio of rubber/PEG, measuring temperature and scan number on the quantification was investigated to establish the respective working range. Analysis of commercial grades of NR revealed that the differences in 1,4 isoprene content is caused by the production process and feedstock, in which proteins and lipids were found to be the major impurity in NR. Gel fraction of NR has insignificant effect on the measurement of 1,4 isoprene content. Furthermore, the new method was found to produce good results for the quantification of 1,4 and 3,4 units of synthetic polyisoprenes.

Scanning electron microscopy methods for studying interfacial interaction in polymer blends

The scanning electron microscopy method in combination with the selective etching technique for polymer blends have been used to evaluate interfacial interaction in natural rubber and low density polyethylene blends. The morphology of the polymer blends, studied under externally applied strain, has been investigated to understand the role of interface adhesion between natural rubber and polyethylene phases, for two separate crosslinking systems, i.e. sulphur and peroxide.

Externally induced strain which facilitates phase separation in sulphur cured blends by initiating cracks at the interface; peroxide curing prevents separating out of the polyethylene phase from the natural rubber matrix. In the latter case, induced stress is distributed predominantly by developing fine flaw paths in the rubber matrix.

The method which has been developed for natural rubber and polyethylene blend systems may be used to evaluate the degree of interfacial adhesion between the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium for other kinds of polymer-polymer, polymer-filler as well as polymer-fibre composites.
