Structure Characterization and Thermal Properties of PMMA／Montmorillonite Nanocomposites via Emulsion Polymerization

Montmorillonite(MMT) modified with sodium silicate can change the arrangement of its layers fromedge-face and edge-edge to face-face. With the fine dispersion of the modified MMT in water, the cation-ex-change reaction was carried out with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) to obtain organo-montmoril-lonite (OMMT). As OMMT was uniformly dispersed in methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer, PMMA/OMMT nanocomposites were formed via a common emulsion polymerization. The products were extractedwith hot acetone and characterized by FTIR, molecular weight, X-ray diffraction(XRD), transmission elec-tron microscopy(TEM), DSC and TGA. These results show that most of the OMMT layers have been exfo-liated, while the thermal stability is increased obviously. By means of FTIR spectral analysis, the ratios ofthe macromolecular radicals‘ termination of disproportionation patterns to combination are increased with theaddition of OMMT. This result further confirms the increase of the thermal degradation temperatures andglass transition temperatures of the PMMA/OMMT nanocomposites.     

Effect of Different Organic Modifiers on the Tensile Properties of PVC／EVA／Montmorillonite Composites

Poly (vinyl chloride)/ethylene-vinyl acetate/montmorillonite (PVC/EVA/OMMT) composites were prepared by melt blending method. Two kinds of montmorillonites were organically modified by trimethyloctadecyl ammonium and dimethyl bis (hydrogenated tallow) ammonium, respectively. The morphology and tensile properties of the resultant composites were discussed in terms of the modifier type and OMMT content. The PVC/EVA/OMMT composites have intercalated structure, which is independent of the polarity of the modifiers, while the tensile properties show strong dependence on the modifier type. The OMMT modified by polar modifier gives higher tensile ductile and strength of PVC/EVA/OMMT composites.     

Preparation of Phenolic Resin／Silver Nanocomposites via in—situ Reduciton

Resol type phenolic resin/silver nanocompostie was prepared by in-sinu reduction method,in which the curing of phenolic resin and the formation of silvernano-particles took place simultaneously.The silver ions were reduced completely to silver nanoparticles,which were dispersed homogeneously in the resinmatrix with narrow size distribution.     

Modification of Montmorillonite through Intercalative Polymerization

Montmorillonite(MMT) was modified through intercalative polymerization of phenol and formaldehyde catalyzed by oxalic acid.The modified montmorillonite was delaminated at large,as demonstrated by XRD and TEM studies,It can disperse easily in epoxy resion to from exfoliated nanocomposites.The nanoscale silicate platelets dispersed in water can be metallized by silver deposition.     

Synthesis and Properties of Melt Processed Poly（thiourea-azo- sulfone）/Carbon Nanotubes Nanocomposites

An aromatic azo-polymer, poly(thiourea-azo-sulfone)(PTAS), has been prepared using 4-(4-aminophenylsulfonyl)benzenamine and diazonium salt solution of 2,6-diaminopyridine. PTAS was easily processable using polar solvents and had high molar mass 63 × 103g mol 1according to GPC. Mechanically and thermally stable and electrically conducting polymer/CNTs nano-composites were obtained via melt processing technique. Fine distribution of CNTs in a polymer matrix performed an essential role in the preparation of polymer/CNTs nano-composites based on interfacial interaction between CNTs and polymer matrix. Scanning electron micrographs showed good dispersion of filler and adhesion of matrix on the surface of nanotubes. Accordingly, increasing the amount of CNTs from 0.1 wt% to 5 wt% increased the electrical conductivity from 2.99 S cm 1to 3.56 S cm 1. Mechanical strength of functional nanotubes-based hybrids was enhanced from 43.22 MPa to 65.02 MPa compared with that of hybrids with non-functional filler in matrix 37.21 MPa. A rapport between nanotube loading and thermal stability of the materials was also observed. 10% gravimetric loss temperature was increased from 528 °C to 578 °C, while glass transition was improved from 241 °C to 271 °C. Adding up of small quantity of functional CNTs strongly affected the tensile, electrical and thermal properties of materials. Improvement of the physical properties of CNT-reinforced polymer nano-composites was ascribed to the melt processing technique.

Properties and Characterization of Modified HZSM—5 Zeolites

Physicochemical and catalytic properties of phosphorus and boron modified HZSM-5 zeolites treated with 100% steam at 673K were investigated.The acidity and distribution of acidic sites were studied by infrared spectroscopy using pyridine as probe molecule and temperature programmed desortion (TPD) of ammonia.The structure of the samples was characterized by XRD,and the textural properties of the catalysts were determined by nitrogen isothermal adsorption-desorption measurements and scanning electron microscopy(SEM).The XRD results show that the modified samples have no novel crystalline phase,indicating a high dispersion of phosphorus and boron species.After treatment,the microporous volume and surface area of the samples markedly decrease,implying the bolockage of the channel.The nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements suggest that the isothermal type of all samples is a combination of isothermal type Ⅰ and Ⅳ，and all hysteresis loops resemble the H4-type in the IUPAC classification.The total acidity of the modified samples,determined by pyrldine adsorption IR and TPD of ammonia,decreases in contrast to that of the parent HZSM-5.The conversion of n-heptane over P and B steammodified HZSM-5 is higher than that of P and B-modified HZSM-5 zeolites but lower than that of the parent HZSM-5.

Structure Analysis of PVC Nanocomposites

In this paper poly(vinyl chloride)/clay nanocomposites were prepared by melt intercalation using a single screw extruder. Problems with thermal stability of these nanocomposites during compounding were largely eliminated by pre-treatment of the organoclay with plasticizer (dioctyl phthalate), which created a barrier between polymer and quaternary amine. These nanocomposite materials were analyzed with respect to their morphology. The intercalation, exfoliation, nano-phase dispersion and orientation were investigated using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Moreover, different types of sample preparation for these techniques were tested as well. It was found that partially intercalated and disordered structure arose in poly (vinyl chloride) composites containing sodium type of montmorillonite, while a fine dispersion of partial to nearly full exfoliation of individual montmorillonite layers in poly (vinyl chloride) matrix was observed when this clay was organically modified. Finally, the influence of different mixing time (in extruder) on nano-phase morphology was surveyed.

Antimicrobial,mechanical, optical and thermal properties of PVC/ZnO‐EDTA nanocomposite films

Covalent surface functionalization of synthesized ZnO nanoparticles (NP)s with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was successfully carried out. Modified ZnO‐EDTA NPs as a viable and inexpensive filler were incorporated into poly(vinyl chloride) PVC matrix after their chemical modification to investigate the agglomeration behavior. All prepared materials including modified NPs and PVC/ZnO‐EDTA nanocomposites (NC)s were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X‐ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Fabricated PVC/ZnO‐EDTA NCs were reported to have high transparency and improved mechanical properties compared with PVC. Modified ZnO and the fabricated NCs were shown to exhibit excellent antibacterial activity against two bacteria species: Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The obtained NCs could be considered as self‐extinguishing materials on the basis of the LOI values. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
