The effect of various compatibilizers on thermal,mechanical, and morphological properties of polystyrene/polypropylene blends

The effects of various compatibilizers on thermal, mechanical and morphological properties of 50/50 polypropylene/polystyrene blends were investigated. Various compatibilizers, polystyrene-(ethylene/butylenes/ styrene) (SEBS), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), polystyrene-butylene rubber (SBR) and blend of compatibilizers SEBS/PP-g-MAH, EVA/PP-g-MAH, and SBR/PP-g-MAH were used. Differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, wide-angle X-ray scattering, scanning electron microscopy, microhardness, and Izod impact strength were adopted. It was found that the influence of various compatibilizers was appeared on all the properties studied. The properties of the blends compatibilized with SEBS, EVA, and SBR are very distinct from those of blends compatibilized with blend of compatibilizers. Results show that compatibilized blends with the blend of compatibilizers EVA/PP-g-MAH, SBR/PP-g-MAH, and SEBS/PP-g-MAH or SBR were relatively more stable than the uncompatibilized blend and blend compatibilized with SEBS or EVA. The compatibilizer does not only reduce the interfacial tension or increase the phase interfacial adhesion between the immiscible polymers, but greatly affects the degree of crystallinity of blends.

     

Adhesion through molecular entanglements in polymer interfaces

This paper examines the role of polymer interdiffusion or interpenetration along and across a boundary of two compatible but dissimilar polymers in controlling interfacial adhesion in the interface region (interphase). The effect of interphase adhesion on the mechanical properties as well as the deformation and fracture behavior of sandwich laminates of poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(vinylidene) fluoride (PVF₂) have been studied. The interphase has been characterized using microscopy (optical, transmission, and scanning electron), dynamic mechanical spectroscopy, and x-ray microanalysis. Conditions of multiple crazing/fracture in the brittle phase (PMMA) and shear yielding in the ductile phase (PVF₂) are discussed. Scanning electron micrographs confirm these deformation modes in PMMA-PVF₂ sandwich composite laminates.

The Effect of Compatibilizer on the Properties of Impact Poly(propylene)-Wood Composites

The effect of two compatibilizers, polypropylene graft maleic anhydride (PPgMA) and ethylene vinyl alcohol (EvOH), on the physical properties of wood polymer composites were studied. The composites were prepared with pine wood and two different impact polypropylene polymers, where the polymers varied according to ethylene content. These compatibilizers, when used together and pre-reacted to create a joint compatiblizer of PPgMA and EvOH, significantly improved control over the repeatability of the physical properties tested, compared to when the compatibilizers were used individually. The impact values were slightly reduced, however the standard deviation of these values showed that the variation in the impact properties were significantly minimized when EvOH was also introduced. It appears that the joint compatiblizer provides better control over the hardness to impact balance of these composite materials and some of these physical properties were improved depending on the ratio between PPgMA and EvOH used, in the joint compatibilizer. Due to the difference in chemistry between PPgMA and EvOH, we expected PPgMA to interact more with the crystalline polypropylene matrix of the impact polymer and the EvOH with the amorphous, rubbery part and yield interesting results.     

Finite Element Based Micro-mechanical Modeling of Interphase in Filler Reinforced Elastomers

Characteristic properties of elastomers can be tailored by embedding them with filler particles. Along with enhancing the overall properties of the composite, filler particles also induce some inelastic effects. In this paper, a finite element computational model is used to study the effect of microstructure morphology in filled elastomers, on its macroscopic large deformation behavior. A multiphase material model that accounts for the hypothesis of shift in glass transition temperature in the vicinity of the filler particle is developed to simulate the interphase between the fillers and the matrix. It also accounts for the breakdown and re-aggregation of filler networks under cyclic loading. Examples at the microstructural level, demonstrating the dynamics of the interphase using the developed multiphase model have been successfully simulated. The obtained results are in good qualitative agreement with the Mullins effect. Therefore, computational experiments using this methodology enable the prediction of the experimentally observed softening behavior in filled elastomers based on its microstructure evolution.     

Adhesion efficiency between phases in fibre-reinforced polymers by means of the concept of boundary interphase

Summary The role of the boundary interphase on the adhesion efficiency between fiber and matrix in the case of polymers reinforced with unidirectional fibers was investigated. A theoretical model was introduced considering that the composite material consists of three phases; that is, the fiber, the matrix and the interphase, material which is the part of the polymer matrix lying at the close vicinity of the fiber surface. The interphase material, having different physical properties from those of the bulk matrix, affects the overall behavior of the composite. Moreover, the quality of adhesion between the two main phases depends greatly on the nature of the interphase material. In this study we have considered that the interphase material is inhomogeneous in nature, with properties varying continuously from the fiber surface to the bulk matrix. The theory developed resulted in a criterion of the adhesion quality and in a prediction of the longitudinal modulus of elasticity of the fiber-composite.With 4 figures and 1 table     

INVESTIGATION OF STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES FOR POLYMER SYSTEMS BASED ON DYNAMIC RHEOLOGICAL APPROACHES

The dynamic theological measurements have been a preferred approach to the characterization of the structure and properties for multi-component or multi-phase polymer systems, due to its sensitive response to changes of structure for these heterogeneous polymers. In the present article, recent progresses in the studies on dynamic theology for heterogeneous polymer systems including polymeric composites filled with inorganic particles, thermo-oxidized polyolefins, phaseseparated polymeric blends and functional polymers with the scaling and percolation behavior are reviewed, mainly depending on the results by the authors‘ group. By means of theological measurements, not only some new fingerprints responsible for the evolution of morphology and structure concerning these polymer systems are obtained, the corresponding results are also significant for the design and preparation of novel polymer-based composites and functional materials.     

Poly(lactic acid)‐based nanocomposites

Classic plastics accumulate in nature causing environmental pollution, yet as a counterbalance they benefit society in many ways. They are versatile, cost‐effective, and can be tailored to have desired properties. The global environment has led to the fabrication of commodity plastics from environmentally degradable polymers. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is the most promising among the environmentally friendly polymers available. PLA‐based plastics have mechanical, thermal, and transparency similar to traditional plastics, and they can be molded and fabricated using the same equipment and procedures. Their material properties are enhanced through nanocomposites, compatibilizers, plasticizers, and other fillers (flame retardant, ultraviolet filter, etc.). This review summarizes mass production techniques and property reinforcements (focusing on nanocomposites and plasticizers) for PLA‐based plastics for commodity use.
