In this study, the poly(L-lactide)/poly(D-lactide)(PLLA/PDLA) blends with different optical purities of PLLA and various molecular weights of PDLA are prepared by solution mixing, and the stereocomplex formation and phase separation behaviors of these blends are investigated. Results reveal that optical purity and molecular weight do not vary the crystal structure of PLA stereocomplex(sc) and homochiral crystallites(hc). As the optical purity increasing in the blends, the melting temperature of sc(Tsc) and the content of sc(ΔHsc) increased, while the melting temperature of hc(Thm) hardly changes, although the content of hc(ΔHhm) decreased gradually. The Tsc and ΔHsc are also enhanced as the molecular weight of PDLA reduces, and the ΔHhm reduces rapidly even though the Thm does not vary apparently. With lower optical purities of PLLA and higher molecular weights of PDLA, three types of crystals form in the blends, i.e., PLA sc, PLLA hc and PDLA hc. As molecular weight decreases and optical purity enhances, the crystal phase decreases to two(sc and PDLA hc), and one(sc) finally. This investigation indicates that the phase separation behavior between PLLA and PDLA in the PLLA/PDLA blends not only depends on molecular weights, but also relies on the optical purities of polymers. 相似文献
The paper investigates preparation and mechanical performances of a composite ceramic coating reinforced by graphene and multi-walled carbon nanotube. The carbon nanotube is functionalized with the carboxyl functional group (–COOH) and un-functionalized with sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). The structure of the functionalized and hybrid-functionalized carbon nanotube is identified using infrared spectroscopy (FTIR analysis). The coating is brushed on the matrix and then cures under temperature lower than 250°C. The morphological and cross section features are studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The distributions of hardness and fracture toughness are determined using a microhardness tester. The adhesive strength is evaluated using a universal tensile tester. The tribological properties are detected using friction wear testing machine. The experimental results show that the structure of the composite coating is compact, and both graphene and hybridtreated carbon nanotube are well dispersed. Addition of 0.2 wt % graphene and 0.2 wt % hybrid-functionalized carbon nanotube results in a prominent increase in hardness and fracture toughness. Meanwhile, the adhesive strength between the composite coating and the metallic substrate is well improved due to the high tensile strength of both graphene and carbon nanotube. Compared with pure alumina coating, the friction coefficient as well as the wear depth and width of grinding crack of the composite coating is much lower.
The maximum energy release rate criterion, i.e., Gmax criterion, is commonly used for crack propagation analysis. This fracture criterion is based on the elastic macroscopic strength
of materials. In the present investigation, however, the Gmax criterion has been modified in order to accommodate the consideration of plastic strain energy. This modified criterion is
extended to study the fatigue crack growth characteristics of mixed-mode cracks. To predict crack propagation due to fatigue
loads, a new elasto–plastic energy model is presented. This new model includes the effects of material properties such as
strain hardening exponent n, yield strength σy, and fracture toughness and stress intensity factor ranges. The results obtained are compared with those obtained using the
commonly employed crack growth law and the experimental data. 相似文献
The potential energy curves of the 69 Ω states generated from the 24 Λ-S states of sulfur monoxide are calculated for the first time using the internally contracted multireference configuration interaction method with the Davidson correction and the entirely uncontracted aug-cc-pV5Z basis set. Spin-orbit coupling is taken into account by the state interaction approach with the full Breit-Pauli Hamiltonian. Very good agreement is achieved between our computed spectroscopic properties and the available experimental data. The transition properties of the B(3)Σ(-) -X(3)Σ(-) and (4)1-X0(+) transitions are predicted, and our computed Franck-Condon factors and radiative lifetimes match the experimental results very well. The predissociation mechanisms are investigated, and various new predissociation channels are located. We present a new interpretation on the breaking-off of the rotational levels of the B(3)Σ(-) lower vibrational states observed in experiment, and propose that the predissociation is induced by the Coriolis coupling between the B(3)Σ(-) rovibrational levels and the A(3)Π state. Our calculations indicate that, at ν' = 9, the B(3)Σ(-) state predissociates via the C(3)Π state; around ν' = 14, three spin-orbit-induced predissociation pathways via (1)(5)Σ(+) , (2)(5)Π, and e(1)Π would be open; around ν' = 17, the pathways via (2)(1)Σ(+) , (2)(3)Σ(+) and (2)(5)Σ(+) would contribute. These satisfactorily explain the experimental results about the diffuseness of the B(3)Σ(-) bands. Furthermore, various predissociation pathways of the C'(3)Π state are predicted, through which the C'(3)Π state could predissociate rapidly. 相似文献
The infrared spectroscopic data for a series of three 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octakis(hexylsulfonyl)phthalocyanine compounds with eight strong electron-withdrawing hexylsulfonyl groups at the peripheral positions M[Pc(SO2C6H13)8] [M = 2H (1), Cu (2), Zn (3)] have been collected with resolution of 2 cm−1. The infrared spectra of compounds 1 and 3 have also been calculated at the density functional B3LYP level. Detailed assignments of the vibrational bands in the IR spectra have been achieved through comparison of the experimental and calculated results. The influence of the metalation and the substitution of eight strong electron-withdrawing alkylsulfonyl groups on the IR characteristics of the phthalocyanines has been discussed based on the comparison between corresponding data. 相似文献
