在玻璃转变温度及其以上温区聚苯乙烯/聚氧化乙烯共混物的动力学弛豫行为

用熔融共混法制备了不同组分的聚苯乙烯(PS)与聚氧化乙烯(PEO)共混物(PS/PEO).在玻璃转变温度T_g及其以上温区,利用相对能量耗散技术研究了该共混物的动力学行为.结果发现,在能量耗散-温度曲线上出现了两个弛豫型的耗散峰(α峰和α′峰).分析表明,α峰是与PS玻璃转变有关的特征耗散峰; α′峰则对应于一种“液-液转变”.两者的弛豫时间τ都不满足Arrhenius关系.此外,还研究了组分对这两个弛豫型耗散峰的影响,并给予了定性的解释. 关键词： 相对能量耗散 玻璃转变 力学弛豫     

剪切振动下湿颗粒的力学谱

在恒温25 ℃剪切振动条件下,测量不同水分含量的NaCl湿颗粒体系的力学谱（能量耗散tanφ和剪切模量G）.研究发现,随着剪切振幅增大,NaCl湿颗粒体系的剪切模量G和能量耗散tanφ都表现出类似于干颗粒体系的阻塞（Jamming）转变行为.随着体系中水含量的增大,湿颗粒体系的剪切模量G和能量耗散tanφ在质量分数约等于11%的临界水浓度下均出现一个峰值,且峰位与应变振幅无关,表明此时颗粒之间主要的作用力发生了变化.

Effects of oxygen concentration and irradiation defects on the oxidation corrosion of body-centered-cubic iron surfaces: A first-principles study

Oxidation corrosion of steels usually occurs in contact with the oxygen-contained environment, which is accelerated by high oxygen concentration and irradiation. The oxidation mechanism of steels is investigated by the adsorption/solution of oxygen atoms on/under body-centered-cubic (bcc) iron surfaces, and diffusion of oxygen atoms on the surface and in the near-surface region. Energetic results indicate that oxygen atoms prefer to adsorb at hollow and long-bridge positions on the Fe(100) and (110) surfaces, respectively. As the coverage of oxygen atoms increases, oxygen atoms would repel each other and gradually dissolve in the near-surface and bulk region. As vacancies exist, oxygen atoms are attracted by vacancies, especially in the near-surface and bulk region. Dynamic results indicate that the diffusion of O atoms on surfaces is easier than that into near-surface, which is affected by oxygen coverage and vacancies. Moreover, the effects of oxygen concentration and irradiation on oxygen density in the near-surface and bulk region are estimated by the McLean's model with a simple hypothesis.     

Low-Frequency Internal Friction Study on the Structural Changes in Polymer Melts

With the help of the low-frequency internal friction method, we investigate the structural properties of polymer melts, such as amorphous polystyrene （PS）, poly（methyl methacrylate） （PMMA）, and semi-crystalline poly（ethylene oxide） （PEO）. An obvious peak of relaxation type is found in each of the internal friction curves. The peak temperature Tp follows the relation Tp ≈ （1.15- 1.18）Tg for PS and PMMA melts, while it follows Tp ≈ 1.22Tm for PEO melt, with Tg being the glass transition temperature and Tm the melting temperature. Based on the analysis of the features of this peak, it is found that this peak is related to the liquid-liquid transition temperature Tn of polymer melts. Mechanism of the liquid-liquid transition is suggested to be thermally-activated collective relaxation through cooperation. This finding may be helpful to understand the structural changes in polymer melts. In addition, the internal friction technique proves to be effective in studying dynamics in polymer melts.
