Thermoplastic Elastomer Phase Changing Materials for Stiffness Modulation

Abstract

Four natural rubber-based phase changing materials (PCMs) were synthesized and evaluated with the goal of achieving controlled stiffness modulation at elevated temperatures (～100-120?°C). The phase changing was achieved through either the glass transition or melt transition of one of four phase changing fillers: polystyrene, poly(methyl methacrylate), low density polyethylene, and indium tin alloy. The PCM stiffness was analyzed using dynamic mechanical analysis and the results showed that all four PCMs exhibited two thermal transitions: a low temperature transition at ?58?°C due to the glass transition of the natural rubber matrix and a high temperature transition at ～100-120?°C due to the thermal transitions in the four filler materials. The degree of stiffness change of all PCMs at 100-120?°C was found to be strongly influenced by the type of the phase changing filler as well as the type of thermal transition (glass transition versus melt transition). The compatibilities of the phase changing materials were analyzed using the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter and it was shown that natural rubber and low density polyethylene had the best compatibility. All systems exhibited effective stiffness modulation with the change in temperature, enabling them to be used for applications requiring variable stiffness control.     

Performance comparison and parametric study on spiral groove gas film face seals

Several spiral groove gas film face seals (SGFS) with different layouts are compared quantitatively to analyze their merits and faults and application behaviors. In addition, a parametric study on downstream mode SGFS is conducted to determine its optimal parameters under certain working conditions. In the computation of gas film pressure on the face, finite element method (FEM) is applied to adapt to complicated geometrical boundary.     

Chemical modification of butyl rubber. II. Structure and properties of poly(ethylene oxide)-grafted butyl rubber

Poly(ethylene oxide)-grafted butyl rubbers (IIR-g-PEOs), which were synthesized from potassium salt of polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (PEGM) and chlorinated butyl rubber, were found to behave like thermoplastic elastomers. The poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) content of these amphiphilic polymers was ca. 10 wt %, and their PEO lengths were 750, 2000, and 5000, respectively. The grafted segments of PEO in butyl rubber (IIR) aggregated to form the PEO domains in IIR matrix. At constant PEO content, the longer the PEO segment length, the larger the size and the crystallinity of PEO domains became. This PEO domain worked as a cross-linking site and a reinforcing filler. The degree of swelling in water of IIR-g-PEO film that was prepared from PEGM-5000 was largest, but its emulsification ability was smallest among them. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Kinetics study of oil sorption with open‐cell polypropylene/polyolefin elastomer blend foams prepared via continuous extrusion foaming

The objective of the present work was to study the sorption kinetics of open‐cell polypropylene/polyolefin elastomer (PP/POE) blend foams. First, open‐cell PP/POE foams of different cell structures were prepared by controlling the foaming temperature via a continuous extrusion foaming process. Second, the effect of the cell structures on the sorption process, rate, and capacity was studied. Pseudo‐first order and pseudo‐second order models were applied to study the sorption kinetics of the PP/POE foams for cyclohexane. Third, the sorption rate and sorption capacity by both volume and weight of the PP/POE foam for different oils and solvents were studied to show how the intrinsic properties of the testing oils and solvents affected the sorption performance. The results showed that the sorption with the PP/POE foams followed the pseudo‐second order kinetics model. Both the cell structures of the foams and the intrinsic properties of the testing oils and solvents affected the sorption performance. For the same testing oil, a higher open‐cell content in the foam was favorable for a higher sorption rate, and a higher void fraction was favorable for a higher sorption capacity. For the same foam, a lower viscosity of the testing oil was favorable for a higher sorption rate. The sorption capacity by volume was closely related to the viscosity of the testing oil, while both the viscosity and the density of the testing oil determined the sorption capacity by weight.

Effects of the chain microstructure on the properties of polyketones terpolymers characterized by scanning force microscopy

A new approach is described to tailor properties of polyketones based on the controlled modification of the block structure by varying the polymerization process. Ethylene-propylene-CO (ECOPCO) terblock copolymers with similar composition but different chain microstructures have been synthesized using either preset polymerization (PSP) or pulsed-feed polymerization (PFP), respectively. Whereas by PSP an ABC-triblock structure is obtained, the PFP results in [AB]_n-multiblock structure. In this paper we investigate the influence of the chain microstructure on the mechanical behavior and the surface properties.SFM phase images display a phase-separated bulk morphology where triblock polymers due to the larger block lengths form coarser structures than the multiblock samples. If the ECO content is above 50%, partially crystalline lamellar structures can be found, which in case of the multiblock sample form a continuous network of lamellar-like ECO rich domains. All ECOPCO terpolymers reveal elastomeric behavior with an elastic recovery of at least 82% but tensile strength and elongation vary with the block length of the chain microstructures. Differences in elasticity are explained by the formation of different amounts of cross-links consisting of blocks of parallel-aligned ECO chain segments or crystalline lamellae. It can be shown that the surface morphology differs from bulk morphology, mainly by the point that no distinct phase separation appears but ECO rich domains can be detected. Surface tension measurements enable to correlate the surface energy with surface composition and surface morphology.
