苯乙烯单体对不同分子形态聚乙烯的扩散聚合行为

采用苯乙烯(St)单体对具有不同分子形态的聚乙烯(PE)进行了扩散聚合行为研究.结果表明,与高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)和线性低密度聚乙烯(LLDPE)相比,由于低密度聚乙烯(LDPE)中长支链的存在导致其结晶度最低,因此LDPE能够为St单体扩散提供更多的自由体积,故St单体的扩散速率最快,聚苯乙烯(PS)扩散饱和值最高.PS在不同种类的PE颗粒中均呈现为"M"型分布,且在不同PE颗粒中PS纳米微球粒径基本相同.部分扩散到PE颗粒内部的St会对PE接枝形成PE-g-PS,这种接枝物在相界面处可作为相容剂减小分散相的尺寸,增加分散相和基体间的界面黏合力,同时可使材料的拉伸强度和杨氏模量得到明显提高.     

Effects of the compatibilizer PE‐g‐GMA on the mechanical,thermal and morphological properties of virgin and reprocessed LDPE/corn starch blends

The effects of the compatibilizer polyethylene grafted with glycidyl methacrylate (PE‐g‐GMA) on the properties of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) (virgin and reprocessed)/corn starch blends were studied. LDPE (virgin and reprocessed)/corn starch blends containing 30, 40 and 50 wt% starch, with or without compatibilizer, were prepared by extrusion and characterized by the melt flow index (MFI), tensile test, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMTA) and light microscopy. The addition of starch to LDPE reduced the MFI values, the tensile strength and the elongation at break, whereas the modulus increased. The decreases in the MFI and tensile properties were most evident when 40 and 50 wt% starch were added. Blends containing 3 wt% PE‐g‐GMA had higher tensile strength values and lower MFI values than blends without compatibilizer. Light microscopy showed that increasing the starch content resulted in a continuous phase of starch. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Styrene-assisted free radical grafting of glycidyl methacrylate onto polyethylene in the melt

Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) is a very useful monomer as it bears an epoxy group which is capable of reacting with various other functional groups. However, its melt free radical grafting reactivity onto a polymer backbone is low. In this study, we show that the use of styrene (St) as a comonomer greatly promotes both GMA's grafting yield and grafting rate onto polyethylene (PE). It is proposed that, in the presence of St, the dominant mechanism of the free radical grafting of GMA onto PE is that St reacts first with PE secondary macroradicals and the resulting styryl macroradicals then copolymerize with GMA leading to grafted GMA. We also show that the contribution of St is not related to an improved solubility of GMA in the molten PE. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 2763–2774, 1998     

Free radical polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate in plasticized Poly(vinyl chloride)

Kinetic of free radical in-situ polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), was studied in a complex evolutionary system: poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) plastisols. A predictive model of conversion-time profile based on free radical mechanism was proposed and structure of the modified PVC system developed was investigated by NMR analyses. In order to elucidate the mechanism of the reaction, model molecules for PVC were used with NMR and MALDI-TOF characterization. It was found that in-situ polymerization of GMA in PVC plastisols leads to both homopolymerization and grafting of GMA onto PVC backbone by hydrogen abstraction. For 33 wt% GMA loaded, grafting efficiency is 67% with an amount of grafted poly-glycidyl methacrylate (pGMA) equals to 22 wt%. Thus, this article discloses a new type of PVC plastisols called reactive plastisols where, in addition to usual plasticizers, PVC is modified by polymerizable GMA monomer.     

Preparation of Polystyrene/Triphenyl Phosphate Composites by Suspension Polymerization and Melt Extrusion Method——A Comparative Study

Polystyrene (PS)/triphenyl phosphate (TPP) composites were prepared by both suspension polymerization and melt extrusion, and a comparative study of the flame retardance and mechanical properties was carried out. The results showed that suspension polymerization was a better technique than melt extrusion for obtaining good dispersity of the PS/TPP composite. The TPP nanoparticles, which were approximately 50 nm in size, were homogenously and uniformly dispersed in the PS matrix by suspension polymerization in one-step. However, the PS/TPP composite was partially agglomerated, exhibiting irregularly shaped micron-scale particles as a result of melt extrusion. In contrast to the melt extrusion, the limited oxygen index (LOI) of the PS/TPP nanocomposite by suspension polymerization increased to 22.6% from 21.8%, and time to ignition (TTI) increased by 12.3%, the peak heat release rate (PHRR) decreased by 8.5%, and the total heat release (THR) decreased by 11.0%. The mechanical properties of the PS/TPP nanocomposite by suspension polymerization also increased. The tensile strength, elongation at break, and flexural strength increased by 36.4%, 8.5%, and 108%, respectively.     

Styrene-assisted melt free radical grafting of glycidyl methacrylate onto polypropylene

The free radical grafting reactivity of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto polypropylene (PP) in the molten state is low. This article shows that adding styrene as a second monomer (or comonomer) increases both the rate and yield of GMA grafting and reduces PP chain scission. The proposed mechanism is that when St is added to the PP/GMA/peroxide grafting system, St reacts first with PP macroradicals to form stable styryl macroradicals. These latter then react (or copolymerize) with GMA to form GMA grafted PP. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1053–1063, 1998     

Reactive diluent strategy for general benzoxazine to achieve high performance thermoset via a combination of styrene and glycidyl methacrylate

Most of polybenzoxazines suffer from intrinsic processability problems, while application of the conceptual strategy of reactive diluent remains challenge in benzoxazine field. Here, we reported a new methodology employing a mixture of styrene (St) and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) as a reactive diluent to dissolve benzoxazine. A commercially available benzoxazine, bis(4-(3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazine-3-yl))phenylmethane (PH-ddm), was used as a model benzoxazine monomer for a variety of evaluation tests. GMA and St are capable of passing a robust radical polymerization to form linear copolymers, while offer epoxy groups to crosslink the PH-ddm polymer resulting from the ring opening polymerization. Moreover, the benzoxazine mixture solutions show advantages in preparing composites with glass fibers. By comparing to bulk benzoxazine, the mixture solutions allow significant improvement in terms of tensile strength and elongation of the composites. The main contributor for the enhanced properties is their low-viscosity nature and the capability to increase crosslinking density of the cured resin. The methodology presented here shows great potential for improving processability of benzoxazines, particularly in large-scale manufacturing of composite.
