Effect of annealing on self-organized gradient film obtained from poly(3-[tris(trimethylsilyloxy)silyl] propyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate)/poly(methyl methacrylate-co-n-butyl acrylate) blend latexes

The effect of annealing on the self-organized morphology and component gradient distribution of films prepared from bimodal latexes blend containing 1:1 silicon-containing acrylate copolymer/silicon-free acrylate copolymer blend was studied using attenuated total reflectance–Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy with X-ray energy-dispersive (SEM-EDX) spectrometry, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The distribution of silicon through the whole thickness of the film as a function of annealing was investigated using confocal Raman spectroscopy (CRS). AFM results show that poly(methyl methacrylate-co-n-butyl acrylate) latex fuses to form a continuous film at 25?°C. The wettability of the acrylate components and the heterogeneous composition of poly(3-[tris(trimethylsilyloxy)silyl] propyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) result in a graded block film. ATR-FTIR and SEM-EDX measurements reveal silicon-containing components segregate at the film–air interface upon annealing. CRS further shows that the nonlinear model gradient distribution of silicon is obtained, where the content of silicon component is enhanced and it gradually varies in the bulk. When the annealing temperature increases to 120 and 180?°C, blend latexes films demonstrate varying topography and phase images, indicating phase separation is induced by annealing. Furthermore, CRS implies that the destruction of the gradient structure is attributed to the phase separation of the two blend components.     

Binary versus ternary interactions in a completely miscible three‐polymer blend system: Poly(ϵ‐caprolactone) with two different methacrylic polymers

A truly miscible ternary miscible blend consisting of poly(?‐caprolactone) (PCL), poly(phenyl methacrylate), and poly(benzyl methacrylate) (PBzMA) was discovered. The three‐polymer blend system was completely miscible within the entire composition range at ambient temperature up to about 150 °C, and ternary phase diagrams at increasing temperatures were characterized and interpreted. A ternary‐interaction model based on the modified Flory–Huggins expression was used to describe the phase diagrams with the individual binary interaction strengths. The model fitted well with the experimental‐phase diagram for the ternary blend system at T = 250 °C, where the binary PCL‐PBzMA blend system is on the critical points of phase separation. Interpretation of discrepancy between the model and experimental at other temperatures was handled with an empirical approach. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Phase separation in poly(tert-butyl acrylate)/polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) thin film blends

Phase separation in thin film blends of poly(tert-butyl acrylate) (PtBA) and a polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS), trisilanolphenyl-POSS (TPP), is studied as functions of annealing temperature and time, using reflected light optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results demonstrate that the PtBA/TPP blend system confined to thin films ( approximately 90 nm) exhibits lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior with a critical temperature of approximately 70 degrees C and a critical composition of 60 wt % PtBA with insignificant dewetting at the phase boundary. Off-critical spinodal behavior is observed for 58 and 62 wt % PtBA blend films. Phase separation by nucleation and growth is observed for all compositions outside the window between 58 and 62 wt % PtBA. The temporal evolution of spinodal decomposition in 60 wt % PtBA blend films is explored at annealing temperatures of 75, 85, 95, and 105 degrees C. The morphological evolution in 60 wt % PtBA blend films is similar for all experimental temperatures (75, 85, 95, and 105 degrees C) with the expected shorter time scales for phase evolution at higher annealing temperatures. Fast Fourier transforms of optical micrographs reveal that these blend films immediately undergo phase separation by spinodal decomposition during temperature jump experiments. Power law scaling for the characteristic wavevector with time (q approximately t(n) with n approximately -1/4 to -1/3) for domain growth during the early stages of phase separation yields to domain pinning at the later stages for 60 wt % PtBA blend films annealed at 75, 85, and 95 degrees C. In contrast, domain growth is pinned over the entire experimental time scale for 60 wt % PtBA blend films annealed at 105 degrees C.     

Surface segregation of poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) in a mixture with poly(methyl methacrylate)

Poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) (PMEA) exhibits excellent blood compatibility. To understand why such a surface functionality exists, the surface of PMEA should be characterized in detail, structurally and dynamically, under not only ambient conditions, but also in water. However, a thin film of PMEA supported on a solid substrate can be easily broken, namely it is dewetted. Our strategy to overcome this difficulty is to mix PMEA with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). Differential scanning calorimetry and cloud point measurements revealed that the PMEA/PMMA blend has a phase diagram with a lower critical solution temperature. The blend surface was also characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy in conjunction with microscopic observations. Although PMEA is preferentially segregated over PMMA at the blend surface due to its lower surface free energy, the extent of segregation in the as-prepared films was not sufficient to cover the surface. Annealing the blend film at an appropriate temperature, higher than the glass transition temperature and lower than the phase-separation temperature of the blend, enabled us to prepare a stable and flat surface that was perfectly covered with PMEA.     

Phase separation dynamics of a poly(vinyl methyl ether)/polystyrene (PVME/PS) blend studied by ultrafast differential scanning calorimetry

In this work, ultrafast differential scanning calorimetry (UFDSC) is used to study the dynamics of phase separation. Taking poly(vinyl methyl ether)/polystyrene (PVME/PS) blend as the example, we firstly obtained the phase diagram that has lower critical solution temperature (LCST), together with the glass transition temperature (T_g) of the homogeneous blend with different composition. Then, the dynamics of the phase separation of the PVME/PS blend with a mass ratio of 7:3 was studied in the time range from milliseconds to hours, by the virtue of small time and spatial resolution that UFDSC offers. The time dependence of the glass transition temperature (T_g) of PVME‐rich phase, shows a distinct change when the annealing temperature (T_a) changes from below to above 385 K. This corresponds to the transition from the nucleation and growth (NG) mechanism to the spinodal decomposition (SD) mechanism, as was verified by morphological and rheometric investigations. For the SD mechanism, the temperature‐dependent composition evolution in PVME‐rich domain was found to follow the Williams–Landel–Ferry (WLF) laws. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

Phase behavior and dewetting for polymer blend films studied by in situ AFM and XPS: from thin to ultrathin films

In this work, the film thickness (l0) effect on the phase and dewetting behaviors of the blend film of poly(methyl methacrylate)/poly(styrene-ran-acrylonitrile) (PMMA/SAN) has been studied by in situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The thinner film shows the more compatibility of the blend, and the phase separation of the film occurs at l0>5Rg (radius of gyration). An initially time-independent q*, the characteristic wavenumber of the phase image, which is in good agreement of Cahn's linearized theory for the early stage of spinodal decomposition, has been obtained in real space and discussed in detail. For 5Rg>l0>3Rg, a "pseudo-dewetting/(phase separation+wetting)" behavior occurs, where the pseudo-wetting is driven by the concentration fluctuation mechanism. For l0<3Rg, a "real dewetting/(phase separation+wetting)" behavior occurs.

SiO_2粒子对PMMA/SAN共混体系相分离行为的影响

Novel biodegradable poly(butylene succinate)/poly(ethylene oxide) blend film with compositional and spherulite‐size gradients

Biodegradable poly(butylene succinate) (PBS)/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) polymer blend film with compositional gradient in the film thickness direction was prepared using a method of interdiffusion across the interface between the PBS and PEO layers at a temperature above the melting points of both the component polymers. The miscibility between PBS and PEO was confirmed by observation of the glass transition temperature by differential scanning calorimetry. The compositional gradient structure of PBS/PEO was characterized by microscopic mapping measurement of Fourier transform infrared spectra and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. Furthermore, a new method for confirming the crystalline/crystalline compositional gradient structure through observing the crystallization behavior by POM (polarized optical microscopy) was put forward. A continuous gradient of the spherulite size along the film thickness direction was succeessfully generated in the PBS/PEO blend film. The compositional gradient blend was found to have significantly improved physical properties that cannot be realized for pure PBS, pure PEO, and even their homogeneous miscible blend system. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
