含二苯甲酮结构的稀土配合物对PVC光稳定性能的影响

兼具热和光稳定性的稀土稳定剂,对降低聚氯乙烯(PVC)加工成本,提高PVC的生产效率和打开稀土稳定剂的应用领域具有重要的意义,因此,通过人工加速紫外老化实验和户外自然光老化实验,研究了2,4-二羟基二苯甲酮镧(LBP)、 2-苯甲酰苯甲酸镧(LBA)及三元复合稳定剂对PVC光稳定性能的影响。结果表明：添加含LBP和含LBA的两种三元复合稳定剂(LBP∶ZnSt₂∶PE=2∶1∶2, LBA∶ZnSt₂∶PE=1∶1∶3)的PVC片材,人工紫外老化10 d后,失重率分别为2.7%和6.2%,自然光老化35 d后,拉伸强度保留率分别为87.6%和81.8%,复合稳定剂提高PVC的光稳定性能最佳。稀土稳定剂可以吸收PVC降解产生的氯化氢,降低氯化氢的浓度,从而减弱氯化氢对PVC降解的催化作用,抑制PVC脱去HCl形成双键,防止双键在氧作用下,形成过氧化物生成羰基化合物。

6-甲基尿嘧啶镧对PVC热稳定性的影响

用复分解法,以硝酸镧、6-甲基尿嘧啶(MUA)、氨水为原料制备了6-甲基尿嘧啶镧(LMUA),利用红外光谱、热分析和元素分析对产物进行表征,确定其分子式为La(C₅H₄N₂O₂)NO₃·1.5H₂O。通过刚果红试纸法、高温老化实验和电导率实验,研究了LMUA对聚氯乙烯(PVC)的热稳定性能的影响,结果表明,LMUA单独作为PVC热稳定剂时,其热稳定性和抗变色性出色,静态热稳定时间达到了73min,动态热稳定时间为88min。将LMUA与其他热稳定剂联合进行二元和三元复配,产物的协同作用良好,稳定性有所提升。当复合稳定剂按质量比6-甲基尿嘧啶镧∶硬脂酸钙∶季戊四醇=3∶1∶1进行复配时,静态热稳定间达到88min,抗变色性和热稳定性最佳。LMUA可以与PVC降解过程中产生的HCl反应而生成LaCl₃,降低了HCl对PVC降解的催化作用,从而达到增强PVC热稳定性能的目的。     

PVC/ACR共混物微观结构与性能

本文研究了聚氯乙烯/丙烯酸酯类共聚物(PVC/ACR)共混物的应力-应变行为和冲击强度对ACR 用量的依赖关系。ACR对 PVC有良好的增韧作用,提高了PVC抗冲击性能。考察了三盐基性硫酸铅和硬脂酸钡-硬脂酸镉稳定剂对共混体系的影响,实验结果说明不同的热稳定体系对ACR改性PVC的效果有差别。动态力学性能测定结果表明PVC/ACR共混物存在两个玻璃化转变温度,证明PVC与ACR不相容性;而两个转变温度随共混物组成改变而变化,说明PVC与ACR之间存在着相互作用,PVC/ACR为部分相容体系。通过透射电子显微镜观察PVC/ACR共混物的微观结构形态表明:PVC与 ACR为两相体系,ACR呈粒状分布在PVC连续相中。但是,采用硬脂酸钡-硬脂酸镉稳定体系时,随着ACR用量增加,ACR的分散形态由粒状分散逐渐形成网络结构形态,与此相对应的共混物具有更好的抗冲击性能。

硬质聚氯乙烯自然老化的变色行为与分子结构变化

以硬质聚氯乙烯(PVC)为研究对象,通过色差实验、FTIR、UV等方法探究了PVC在湿热、辐射低的琼海和暖温、干旱且辐射高的若羌地区自然老化的变色行为与分子结构变化.结果表明,太阳辐射是影响PVC自然老化过程中变色行为和分子结构变化的主要环境因素,PVC在干旱、辐射高的若羌地区比在湿热、辐射低的琼海地区更易变黄和变红,而在两地变暗的程度相近;这是因为随着自然老化时间的延长,PVC逐渐发生脱除氯化氢反应和氧化反应,在干旱且辐射高的若羌,更易发生脱除氯化氢反应,而在湿热且辐射低的琼海,脱除氯化氢反应和氧化反应的速度相近,在若羌老化的PVC样品生成了更多的共轭长度(n)≥8的C=C长共轭序列所致.

FT-RAMAN SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF THE FORMATION OF POLYENES DURING THERMAL DEGRADATION OF POLY(VINYL CHLORIDE) AND POLY (N-VINYL-2-PYRROLIDONE) BLENDS

In situ degradation of poly(vinyl chloride)/poly (N-vinyl-2- pyrrolidone) (PVC/PVP) blends has been studied by Fourier-transform Raman spectroscopy. PVP acts as a destabilizer in the thermal degradation of PVC as manifested by the reduction of temperature for the onset of degradation and the time the polymer is held at a particular temperature for this onset. Increasing the amount of PVP in the blends decreases the dehydrochlorination temperature and time. In blends containing high PVP concentrations, polyene bands dominate over nondegraded PVC bands. Maximum polyene lengths of around 35 were achieved. High PVP ratios and prolonged degradation at higher temperatures resulted in a decrease in mean polyene length due to crosslinking and oxidative scission.

SYNERGISTIC MODIFICATION OF EPDM AND CROSSLINKING AGENT IN IMMISCIBLE BLENDS OF POLYVINYL CHLORIDE WITH LOW DENSITY POLYETHYLENE

The synergism of ethylene-propylene-diene monomer copolymer （EPDM） and dicumyl peroxide （DCP, a crosslinking agent） in low density polyethylene （LDPE）/poly（vinyl chloride） （PVC） blends was investigated. When EDPM and DCP are added to the blends simultaneously, the tensile properties could be improved significantly, especially for the blends with LDPE matrix. For example, incorporation of 10/1 （mass ratio） EPDM/DCP improves the tensile strength of the LDPE/PVC （mass ratio 80/20） blend from 7.9 MPa to 8.5 MPa and the elongation at break from 25% to 503%. Results from selective extraction, phase-contrast microscopy and thermal analysis reveal that the improvement in the tensile properties of the blends with LDPE matrix is principally due to the formation of a fine crosslinking network of the LDPE and EPDM phase. The outstanding modification effect of EPDM is explained by its dual functions： molecular entanglement with LDPE and the enhanced efficiency of DCP in the blends.

Effects of gamma irradiation on poly(vinyl chloride)/polystyrene blends: Investigation of radiolytic stabilization and miscibility of the mixture

Commercial polystyrene (PS) has been studied as a modifier for commercial poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) when it was submitted to gamma irradiation. PVC/PS blends were prepared with 100/0, 95/05 and 90/10 compositions. Results for gamma-irradiated (⁶⁰Co) blends are reported and changes in viscosity-average molar mass (M_v) were analyzed. The study showed that the addition of PS into PVC decreased by 73% (95/05) and 79% (90/10) the number of scissions/100 eV in the dose range of 25-100 kGy. Viscosity analyses by the Pan et al. criterion and analyses of FT-IR spectra in the C-Cl vibration region showed negligible intermolecular interactions between the components of PVC/PS blends. However when the films of blends were irradiated to 50 kGy, certain intermolecular interactions were observed by the viscosity method. The addition of PS to PVC and the main scission effect induced by gamma irradiation decreased crosslink density of blends causing changes in the elongation of break and Young's modulus.     

Crosslinking of rigid PVC by ionizing radiation to improve its thermal properties

Rigid PVC formulations containing two different stabilizer systems (tin and Ca/Zn) and TMPTMA as a crosslinking agent were treated with ionizing radiation (gamma and electron beam) at different doses and irradiation atmospheres. The objective was to increase thermal and mechanical properties of this material. Polyene formation was followed through the yellowing index (YI), the extent of crosslinking by gel percentage, thermal resistance by Vicat temperature and the mechanical properties by DMA. Both formulations became colored with irradiation, especially with gamma as a result of a longer treatment time; the gel formation and the Vicat temperature were also higher for gamma treated samples, suggesting that values were enhanced by oxidation. However, DMA elastic modulus traces were almost similar for both treatments. The main difference observed for Ca/Zn samples compared with traditional tin samples was the lower ability of the former system in protecting the material against processing conditions.     

Studies of photooxidative degradation of poly(vinyl chloride)/poly(ethylene oxide) blends

The photooxidative degradation of blends (in a full range of compositions) of amorphous poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) with semicrystalline poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in the form of thin films is investigated using absorption spectroscopy (UV–visible and Fourier transform infrared) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The amount of insoluble gel formed as a result of photocrosslinking is estimated gravimetrically. It is found that the PVC/PEO blendsí susceptibility to photooxidative degradation differs from that pure of the components and depends on the blend composition and morphology. Photoreactions such as degradation and oxidation are accelerated whereas dehydrochlorination is retarded in blends. The photocrosslinking efficiency in PVC/PEO blends is higher than in PVC; moreover, PEO is also involved in this process. AFM images showing the lamellar structure of semicrystalline PEO in the blend lead to the conclusion that the presence of PVC does not disturb the crystallization process of PEO. The changes induced by UV irradiation allow the observation of more of the distinct PEO crystallites. This is probably caused by recrystallization of short, more mobile chains in degraded PEO or by partial removal of the less stable amorphous phase from the film surface. These results confirm previous information on the miscibility of PVC with PEO. The mechanism of the interactions between the components and the blend photodegradation are discussed. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 42: 585–602, 2004     

The thermal degradation of polychloroprene-III degradation of polychloroprene/poly(methyl methacrylate) mixtures

The mechanism of dehydrochlorination has been studied by examining the degradation of polychloroprene/poly(methyl methacrylate) blends, using thermal volatilization analysis and infrared spectroscopy; the behaviour has been compared with that previously found for PVC/PMMA blends. Unlike the latter system, the polychloroprene blends did not show any increased production of methyl methacrylate monomer in the early stages of breakdown. The stabilization effect on PMMA due to reaction of ester groups with hydrogen chloride, on the other hand, is much more evident in the case of polychloroprene blends than for PVC, PVC dehydrochlorination is retarded by the presence of PMMA, but evolution of hydrogen chloride from polychloroprene is unaffected to any significant extent. It is concluded that the dehydrochlorination of polychloroprene is not a radical chain process. A unimolecular mechanism is suggested.     

Study of the miscibility and the thermal degradation of PVC/PMMA blends

The aim of this paper is to study the miscibility and the thermal degradation of PVC/PMMA blends. For that purpose, blends of variable compositions from 0 to 100 wt% were prepared with and without plasticizer. Their physico-chemical characterization was carried out by differential scanning calorimetric analysis (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Their thermal degradation under nitrogen at 185°C was studied and the HCl evolved from PVC was measured by the pH method. Degraded samples were characterized, after purification, by FTIR and UV-visible spectroscopy. The DSC analysis showed polymer miscibility up to 60 wt% of PMMA. This miscibility is due to a specific interaction of hydrogen bonding type between carbonyl groups (C=O) of PMMA and hydrogen from (CHCl) groups of PVC as evidenced by FTIR analysis. On the other hand, it was found that PMMA exerted a stabilizing effect on the thermal degradation of PVC by reducing the zip dehydrochlorination and by leading to the formation of short polyenes.
