Crystal and phase morphologies and structures determined by self-organization of crystalline-amorphous diblockcopolymers, crystallization of the crystallizable blocks, and vitrification of the amorphous blocks are reviewed through asystematic study on a series of poly(ethylene oxide)-b-polystyrene (PEO-b-PS) diblock copolymers. On the base ofcompetitions among these three processes, molecular and supramolecular ordering in confined environments can beinvestigated. In a concentration-fluctuation-induced disordered (D_(CF)) diblock copolymer, the competition between crystalli-zation of the PEO blocks and vitrification of the PS blocks is momtored by time-resolved simultaneous small angle X-rayscattering (SAXS) and wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) techniques.

Summary: In a low‐molecular‐weight polyethylene‐block‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PE‐b‐PEO) diblock copolymer, two pathway‐dependent melting processes were observed: Upon slow heating, the PE lamellar crystals melted at ≈97 °C into a disordered state. However, when the temperature rapidly jumped to above the melting point (e.g., 100 °C), the PE lamellar crystals transformed directly into an ordered lamellar melt, followed by an isothermal conversion into a disordered melt. This isothermal order‐to‐disorder transition was explained by superheating of the PE crystals using a GT diagram.

The occurrence of a molecular complex between poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and p‐dihydroxybenzene (hydroquinone) has been determined using different experimental techniques such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). From DSC investigations, an ethylene oxide/hydroquinone molar ratio of 2/1 was deduced. During the heating, the molecular complex undergoes a peritectic reaction and spontaneously transforms into a liquid phase and crystalline hydroquinone (incongruent melting). A triclinic unit cell (a = 1.17 nm, b = 1.20 nm, c = 1.06 nm, α = 78°, β = 64°, γ = 115°), containing eight ethylene oxide (EO) monomers and four hydroquinone molecules, has been determined from the analysis of the X‐ray diffraction fiber patterns of stretched and spherulitic films. The PEO chains adopt a helical conformation with four monomers per turn, which is very similar to the 72 helix of the pure polymer. A crystal structure is proposed on the basis of molecular packing considerations and X‐ray diffraction intensities. It consists of a layered structure with an alternation of PEO and small molecules layers, both layers being stabilized by an array of hydrogen bonds. The morphology of PEO–HYD crystals was studied by small angle X‐ray scattering and DSC. As previously shown for the PEO–resorcinol complex, PEO–HYD samples crystallize with a lamellar thickness corresponding to fully extended or integral folded chains. The relative proportion of lamellae with different thicknesses depends on the crystallization temperature and time. Finally, the observed morphologies are discussed in terms of intermolecular interactions and chain mobility. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 37: 1197–1208, 1999  相似文献

The crystallization kinetics of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) blocks in poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(1,4‐butadiene) (PEO‐b‐PB)/poly(1,4‐butadiene) (PB) blends were previously found to display a one‐to‐one correlation with the microdomain morphology. The distinct correlation was postulated to stem from the homogeneous nucleation‐controlled crystallization in the cylindrical and spherical PEO microdomains, where there existed a direct proportionality between the nucleation rate and the individual domain volume. This criterion was valid for confined crystallization in which the crystallization was spatially restricted within the individual domains. However, it was possibly not applicable to PEO‐b‐PB/PB, in that the melt mesophase was strongly perturbed upon crystallization. Therefore, it may be speculated that the crystal growth front developed in a given microdomain could intrude into the nearby noncrystalline domains, yielding the condition of cooperative crystallization. To establish an unambiguous model system for verifying the existence of microdomain‐tailored kinetics in confined crystallization, we crosslinked amorphous PB blocks in PEO‐b‐PB/PB with a photoinitiated crosslinking reaction to effectively suppress the cooperative crystallization. Small‐angle X‐ray scattering revealed that, in contrast to the noncrosslinked systems, the pre‐existing domain morphology in the melt was retained upon crystallization. The crystallization kinetics in the crosslinked system also exhibited a parallel transition with the morphological transformation, thereby verifying the existence of microdomain‐tailored kinetics in the confined crystallization of block copolymers. Homogeneous nucleation‐controlled crystallizations in cylindrical and spherical morphologies were demonstrated in an isothermal crystallization study in which the corresponding crystallinity developments followed a simple exponential rule not prescribed by conventional spherulitic crystallization. Despite the effective confinement imposed by the crosslinked PB phase, crystallization in the lamellar phase still proceeded through a mechanism analogous to the spherulitic crystallization of homopolymers. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

报道分子量为5000的聚氧化乙烯(PEO)从熔融态淬火到液氮温度后形成的两次链折叠(2-FC)片晶增厚过程的研究结果.在升温和恒温条件下,采用小角X射线散射(SAXS)在位地跟踪了2-FC片晶增厚成一次链折叠(1-FC)和进一步成为伸直链(EC)片晶的增厚过程.通过对SAXS数据以及它们的一维相关函数的数据的分析,发现在52℃以下,2-FC片晶主要增厚为1-FC片晶;在52℃以上,2-FC片晶则主要增厚为EC片晶;在58℃到EC片晶的熔点的温度区域里,已经形成的1-FC片晶还会熔融,完全转化为EC片晶.利用偏光显微镜(PLM)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)观察晶体的形貌,比如球晶,获得的研究结果表明,没有发生大范围的晶体破坏后再形成的变化,也就是说片晶的增厚过程是一个发生在球晶内部的薄片晶熔融后转化为厚片晶的过程.  相似文献

The polymer decoration method based on the vaporization and condensation-crystallization of polyethylene (PE) upon the fold surface of polymer crystals has been widely used to study the chain folding behavior of the crystals. When this method was utilized to study solution-grown high molecular weight poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) lamellar crystals, the highly anisotropic, low molecular weight fragment PE decorated become oriented parallel to the fold direction and form rods, which can be observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron diffraction (ED). The growth sectors were clearly observed. From the ED patterns the {200} planes of the orthorhombic low molecular weight PE rod crystals can be observed, and the c-axis of these crystals is aligned parallel to the {120} growth planes of the PEO crystals. The decoration results indicate that the major fold orientation of high molecular weight PEO single crystals grown from dilute solution is along the {120} planes. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

We have been able to prepare a molecular complex between the poly(ethylene oxide) block of a poly(ethylene)-b-poly(ethylene-alt-propylene)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) triblock copolymer and p-nitrophenol (PNP). The composition of the copolymer employed was: 24% PE, 57% PEP and 19% PEO in weight percent. The pure copolymer exhibited a non-conventional thermal behavior since the PEO block displayed a fractionated crystallization process during cooling. The PEO block/PNP complex did not show any apparent crystallization during cooling, instead cold crystallization during heating was observed and an approximately 30°C increase in melting point as compared to the neat PEO block within the copolymer. This caused an overlap in the melting regions of the PE block and the PEO block/PNP complex. The self-nucleation of the PE-b-PEP-b-PEO/PNP complex is very different from that of the neat triblock copolymer. An increased capacity for self-nucleation of the PEO block was produced by the complexation with PNP and therefore the three self-nucleation domains were clearly encountered for both the PE block and for the PEO block/PNP complex. Self-nucleation was able to show that the two crystallizable blocks can be self-nucleated and annealed in an independent way, thereby ascertaining the presence of separate crystalline regions in the triblock copolymer. Through the use of PNP, both the crystallinity and the melting point of the PE-b-PEP-b-PEO block copolymer employed here can be substantially increased. Similar results were obtained by complexation of the same ABC triblock copolymer with resorcinol.  相似文献

Semicrystalline polymer/layered silicate nanocomposites were prepared by solution blending of a low molecular weight poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) with an organically modified montmorillonite, Cloisite 10A (C10A). The intercalation morphology was studied by temperature-dependent synchrotron wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD). Unlike PEO homopolymers, significant secondary crystallization was observed in the PEO/C10A nanocomposites. Reversible de-intercalation and intercalation processes were detected during secondary crystallization and subsequent melting of secondary crystals. On the basis of two-dimensional WAXD results on oriented samples, an interphase layer between the silicate primary particles and PEO lamellar crystals was proposed. Secondary PEO crystallization in the interphase regions was inferred to be the primary driving force for polymer chains to diffuse out of the silicate gallery. This study provided a useful method to investigate polymer diffusion in nanoconfined spaces, which can be controlled by PEO secondary crystallization and melting outside the silicate gallery.  相似文献

Melting points and lamellar thicknesses have been measured for ethylene oxide–propylene oxide block copolymers (sym-PEP) with central poly(ethylene oxide) block lengths of 70–100 chain units and end poly(propylene oxide) block lengths of 0–30 chain units. Melting points of the block copolymers are lower than those of the corresponding poly(ethylene oxide) homopolymer by an amount (up to 15°C) which increases as the poly(propylene oxide) block length increases. Most samples have more than one melting transition, which can be assigned to variously folded chain crystals. End interfacial free energies σe for the various crystals have been estimated by use of Flory's theory of melting of block copolymers. For a given crystal type (e.g., once-folded-chain) σe is higher the longer the chain length of the end poly(propylene oxide) blocks. For a given copolymer σe is lower, the more highly folded the poly(ethylene oxide) chain.  相似文献

Results of an investigation of isothermal crystallization and thermal behavior of poly(ethylene oxide)/poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEO/PEMA) blends are reported. The blend composition and the crystallization temperature strongly influence the crystallization process from the melt and the melting temperature of PEO. The addition of PEMA to PEO causes a depression in the spherulite growth rate, in the overall kinetic crystallization constant, and in the melting temperature. Experimental data on the radial growth rate G and overall kinetic rate constant Kn are analyzed by means of the latest kinetic theory. From this analysis it emerges that the crystallization of pure PEO and PEO in the blend conforms to the regime I process of surface secondary nucleation. The depression of the melting temperature cannot be explained only in terms of a diluent effect due to the compatibility of the two components in the melt. Annealing and morphological effects, dependent on composition and time, must also be taken into account.  相似文献

We present a systematic investigation of the crystallization and aggregation behavior of a poly(1,2-butadiene)-block-poly(ethylene oxide) diblock copolymer (PB-b-PEO) in n-heptane. n-Heptane is a poor solvent for PEO and at 70°C the block copolymer self-assembles into spherical micelles composed of a liquid PEO core and a soluble PB corona. Time- and temperature-dependent light scattering experiments revealed that when crystallization of the PEO cores is induced by cooling, the crystal morphology depends on the crystallization temperature (T c ): Below 30°C, the high nucleation rate of the PEO core dictates the growth of the crystals by a fast aggregation of the micelles into meander-like (branched) structures due to a depletion of the micelles at the growth front. Above 30°C the nucleation rate is diminished and a relatively small crystal growth rate leads to the formation of twisted lamellae as imaged by scanning force microscopy. All data demonstrate that the formation mechanism of the crystals through micellar aggregation is dictated by two competitive effects, namely, by the nucleation and growth of the PEO core.  相似文献

We report novel micellar carriers, comprising pendant cinnamyl moieties in the core-forming block, designed to increase the solubilization of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) in aqueous media. Amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(α-cinnamyl-ε-caprolactone-co-ε-caprolactone) (PEO-b-P(CyCL-co-CL) diblock copolymers were synthesized by ring-opening copolymerization of α-propargyl-ε-caprolactone and ε-caprolactone from a monofunctional PEO macroinitiator and subsequent attachment of cinnamyl groups via click reaction. In addition, a linear PEO-b-PCL diblock copolymer was synthesized and used in this study for comparison. Next, nanosized micelles from PEO-b-P(CyCL-co-CL) and PEO-b-PCL were formed via the solvent evaporation method and then loaded with CAPE. Dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize both blank and loaded carriers. The potential of the micelles comprising pendant cinnamyl group to solubilize CAPE in water was evaluated in a comparative fashion to that of nonmodified PEO-b-PCL diblock copolymer.  相似文献

Poly(ethylene imine)‐graft‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PEI‐g‐PEO) copolymers were synthesized via Michael addition reaction between acryl‐terminated poly(ethylene oxide) methyl ether (PEO) and poly(ethylene imine) (PEI). The brush‐like copolymers were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It is found that the crystallinity of the PEO side chains in the copolymers remained unaffected by the PEI backbone whereas the crystal structure of PEO side chains was altered to some extent by the PEI backbone. The crystallization behavior of PEO blocks in the copolymers suggests that the bush‐shaped copolymers are microphase‐separated in the molten state. The PEO side chains of the copolymers were selectively complexed with α‐cyclodextrin (α‐CD) to afford hydrophobic side chains (i.e., PEO/α‐CD inclusion complexes). The X‐ray diffraction (XRD) shows that the inclusion complexes (ICs) of the PEO side chains displayed a channel‐type crystalline structure. It is identified that the stoichiometry of the inclusion complexation of the PEI‐g‐PEO with α‐CD is close to that of the control PEO with α‐CD. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Time-resolved synchrotron wide- and small-angle X-ray scattering experiments were used to investigate crystallization behavior and microstructure development of a nearly monodisperse poly(ethylene oxide) [PEO] (Mw = 53,500), and its melt-miscible blends with two fractionated styrene - hydroxystyrene random copolymers [SHS]. PEO crystallization rates decrease significantly in the presence of the melt-miscible SHS copolymers. All low and high molecular weight SHS blends exhibit a crystallization process at relatively short times characterized by large Avrami exponents (n), followed by a dominant process with n near that of neat PEO. A model for the crystallization of these blends is proposed.  相似文献

Polymer blends based on poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) have been prepared to analyze the crystallization kinetics of poly(ethylene oxide) confined in semicrystalline PVDF with different ratios of both polymers. Both blend components were dissolved in a common solvent, dimethyl formamide. Blend films were obtained by casting from the solution at 70 °C. Thus, PVDF crystals are formed by crystallization from the solution while PEO (which is in the liquid state during the whole process) is confined between PVDF crystallites. The kinetics of crystallization of the confined PEO phase was studied by isothermal and nonisothermal experiments. Fitting of Avrami model to the experimental DSC traces allows a quantitative comparison of the influence of the PVDF/PEO ratio in the blend on the crystallization behavior. The effect of melting and further recrystallization of the PVDF matrix on PEO confinement is also studied. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part B: Polym.

In the preparation of the ABC star triblock copolymer of ethylene oxide, styrene and methyl methacrylate (MMA), the photo-induced charge-transfer complex (CTC) was used to initiate the polymerization of the third monomer MMA. The CTC was composed of the diblock copolymer of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and polystyrene (PS), PEO-b i -PS, with an aromatic imino group at the conjunction point and benzophenone (BP). It was confirmed that the kinetic behavior of this macromolecular initiation system is nearly the same with a general small radical initiator: the polymerization rate R p ∝ [PEO-b i -PS]0.48[BP]0.45[MMA]0.97. Moreover, if the molecular weight of the PEO block is fixed, R p is independent of the molecular weight of the PS block.  By means of measurements of viscosity and fluorescence, it was found that the micelles of the diblock copolymer PEO-b i -PS were formed in benzene. The aromatic imino groups were located on the boundary surfaces of the micelles and were fully exposed, and so the BP and MMA molecules easily approached them and affected the charge-transfer polymerization of MMA.

The compatibilization of incompatible polypropylene (PP)/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) blends was studied. The experimental results showed that the graft copolymer [(PP-MA)-g-PEO] of maleated PP(PP-MA) and mono-hydroxyl PEO (PEO-OH) was a good compatibilizer for the PP/PEO blends in which PP-MA also had some compatibilization. The crystallization of the blends was affected by the compatibility between PP and PEO. The interfacial behavior of the compatibilizers had an important effect on crystallization behavior of the PP/PEO blends. PEO showed fractionated crystallization in the PP/PEO blends. This behavior was studied from the view point of the theory of fractionated crystallization. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

Infrared spectra in conjunction with calorimetric measurements have been used to follow the crystallization process and microstructural changes of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends. We have given particular attention to compositions containing low PEO concentrations. The crystallization behavior and the resultant microstructures of PEO are strongly perturbed by the presence of PMMA. In addition, we found phase separation and trans sequences of PEO to be present, especially at low PEO concentrations.  相似文献

The microstructure evolution of isotactic polypropylene(iPP) during annealing is reported.A few amount of poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO) which exhibits much lower melt temperature compared with /PP was introduced into /PP in this work.The crystalline structure of /PP was detected using differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and wide-angle X-ray diffraction(WAXD),and the relaxation of /PP was characterized using dynamic mechanical analysis(DMA).The variation of PEO morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM).The results show that the crystallization, including the primary crystallization and second crystallization during annealing,as well as the relaxation of /PP matrix is promoted with the presence of PEO.  相似文献
