In this work microphase separation in ideal interpenetrating networks as well as its influence on the mechanical properties of the networks has been studied. Structures with long-range order in such networks have not been found to be formed; the reason for this is apparently the weak bonding (physical entanglements) between the subnetworks. The dynamics of the relaxation of interpenetrating networks with highly incompatible subnetworks has been studied and it has been found that the slow rearrangement of phase boundaries during the stretching process has a significant influence on it. Using the analysis of subchains conformations, it has been found that the increase in the stiffness of interpenetrating networks with incompatible subchains occurs due to the irregular tension of subchains related to the presence of big aggregates in the system. 相似文献

The lyotropic liquid-crystalline phase behavior of phytantriol is receiving increasing interest in the literature as a result of similarities with glyceryl monooleate, despite its very different molecular structure. Some differences in the phase-transition temperature for the bicontinuous cubic to reverse hexagonal phase have been reported in the literature. In this study, we have investigated the influence that the commercial source and hence the purity has on the lyotropic phase behavior of phytantriol. Suppression of the phase-transition temperatures (by up to 15 degrees C for the bicontinuous cubic to reverse hexagonal phase transition) is apparent with lower-purity phytantriol. In addition, the composition boundaries were also found to depend significantly on the source and purity of phytantriol, with the bicontinuous cubic phase + excess water boundary occurring at a water content above that reported previously (i.e., >5% higher). Both the temperature and compositional changes in phase boundaries have significant implications on the use of these materials and highlight the impact that subtle levels of impurities can play in the phase behavior of these types of materials. 相似文献

Abstract First experiments show that cross-linked liquid-crystalline polymers, which are swollen with nematic low molar mass liquid crystals and freely dispersed in this liquid crystal, change their shape if an electic field is applied. This shape variation depends on the degree of swelling. 相似文献

Smectic networks obtained from twin LC epoxy monomers—mechanical deformation of the smectic networks
Deformation experiments were carried out for densely crosslinked smectic-like networks obtained from diepoxy monomers with twin mesogen architecture. For the initially unoriented smectic networks, the network could be aligned up to an orientation parameter of 0.35 by applying 8 MPa of external stress in the rubbery regime. X-ray diffraction measurements revealed that the deformed smectic network possesses both smectic-A like and smectic-C like structure. It is thought that after extension domains initially oriented parallel to the external stress displayed a smectic-A-like structure, whereas domains initially tilted with respect to the tensile direction showed a stress-induced smectic-C like structure. A smectic network oriented under a.c. electric fields with an orientation parameter of 0.4 had a smectic-A like structure and possessed linear elasticity in the rubbery regime. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Two kinds of polymethacrylates, 1 and 2 , with 2‐styrylpyridine and 4‐styrylpyridine moiety as a photoreactive group, which have a benzoate group as a mesogenic unit, and hexylene group as a flexible spacer in the same side chain, were synthesized to characterize their alignment behaviors. The UV absorption and fluorescence studies on the two polymers revealed that the latter polymer with the 4‐stylrylpyridine moiety is more aggregative than the former polymer with the 2‐styrylpyridine moiety. The polymer 1 showed a nematic phase structure at 170 °C, while 2 appeared in a partially bilayered smectic A phase structure in the homeotropic direction at 175 °C. The polymer 1 film generated an in‐plane alignment by a linearly polarized UV light irradiation and subsequent annealing, and its direction was parallel with respect to the irradiation. On the other hand, the polymer 2 film with the same treatments gave a high out‐of‐plane order parameter of 0.73 in a wide temperature range of 120–240 °C. The significant differences in the aggregation behavior, the liquid‐crystalline structure, and the alignment between the two polymers were discussed by the structural differences between the 2‐ and 4‐styrylpyridine moieties in the two polymers. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Liquid-crystalline polybutadiene-diols (LCPBDs) with the comb-like architecture were synthesized by reaction of a LC thiol with the double bonds of telechelic HO-terminated polybutadiene (PBD). LCPBDs with various initial molar ratios of thiol to double bonds of PBD, R0, in the range from 0.15 to 1, were prepared by the radical reaction at temperature 60 °C for 48 h. The experimentally obtained degree of modification, Re, after the reaction and purification, was determined from elemental analysis - from the amount of sulphur bounded in LCPBDs, GPC and from 1H NMR spectra. The physical properties were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic mechanical spectroscopy. With increasing Re ratio the glass transition temperature of LCPBDs, Tg, increases from ∼ − 45 °C (neat PBD) to ∼20 °C (Re ∼ 0.5). LC transition starts at Re ∼ 0.27 (the transition temperature Tm ∼ 27 °C). With increasing Re temperature Tm increases and for Re ∼ 0.5 reaches the value Tm ∼ 74 °C; at the same time also the change in enthalpy at LC transition increases. The LC transition could be detected also by the dynamic mechanical spectroscopy; especially shape and position of mechanical functions on frequency and free volume parameters strongly depend on degree of modification. 相似文献

The liquid—liquid—vapor loci for the binary mixtures ethane + n-nonylbenzene, ethane + n-decylbenzene and ethane + n-undecylbenzene were experimentally studied. The pressure, temperature, and compositions and molar volumes of the liquid phases are reported along the loci. n-Nonylbenzene was found to be the first member of the n-alkylbenzene homologous series to exhibit liquid—liquid—vapor immiscibility with ethane. For the three alkylbenzenes studied, the liquid—liquid—vapor loci have the same type of behavior: they extend from a lower critical end point (LCEP) to an upper critical end point (K-point). 相似文献

Azotolane liquid-crystalline polymers: huge change in birefringence by photoinduced alignment change
Okano K Tsutsumi O Shishido A Ikeda T 《Journal of the American Chemical Society》2006,128(48):15368-15369
Novel liquid-crystalline polymers (LCPs) containing a long azotolane moiety were synthesized, and the relationship between the chemical structures and the photoresponsive behavior was investigated. All homogeneously aligned LCP films exhibited extremely high values of birefringence (Deltan) in the wide wavelength range. Specifically, the azotolane LCP with two azobenzene units showed the most efficient change in the alignment of the azotolane moiety with a huge change in Deltan (>/=0.65). This means that the high value of Deltan in the homogeneously aligned state can be converted to the change in Deltan effectively. 相似文献

The influence of crosslinking conditions (γ-radiation-induced and chemical crosslinking above and below the clearing point) on the phase behavior of a liquid-crystalline polyacrylate-based elastomer is shown and discussed. The network formation in samples γ-irradiated in the nematic phase results in an increase of the clearing point Tn-i which does not depend on the crosslinking density expressed as the ratio of weight-average molecular weight over number-average molecular weight between crosslinks M w/M c within a wide M w/M c range. The distorting action of the crosslinking agent at the same temperature leads to the opposite tendency in the change of Tn-i. Crosslinking in the isotropic phase shows a strong decrease in Tn-i. 相似文献

The anisotropic photoreaction of a liquid-crystalline (LC( copolymer comprising one co-monomer being anisotropically photo-crosslinkable by linearly polarized (LP( -UV light and the other being insensitive to UV-irradiation is presented. Polarized UV and IR studies suggested a photo-induced alignment of the mesogenic side groups during the LP-UV photoreaction at the LC temperature range of the copolymer. The direction of the aligned mesogenic groups is parallel to the electric vector of the incident LP-UV light and the induced birefringence is 0.07. 相似文献

Electron beam irradiation of poly(iminohexamethylene-iminoadipoyl) (Polyamide-6,6) films was carried out over a range of irradiation doses (20–500 kGy) in air. The mechanical properties were studied and the optimum radiation dose was 200 kGy, where the ultimate tensile stress (UTS), 10% modulus, elongation at break (EB) and toughness showed significant improvement over the unirradiated film. At a dose of 200 kGy, the UTS was improved by 19%, the 10% modulus by 9% and the EB by 200% over the control. The dynamic mechanical properties of the films were studied in the temperature region 303–473 K to observe the changes in the glass transition temperature (Tg) and loss tangent (tan δ) with radiation dose. The storage modulus of the film receiving a radiation dose of 200 kGy was higher than the unirradiated film. The water uptake characteristics of the Polyamide-6,6 films were investigated. The water uptake was less for the films that received a radiation dose of 200 and 500 kGy than the unirradiated film. The role of crystallinity, crosslinking and chain scission in affecting the tensile, dynamic mechanical and water absorption properties was discussed. 相似文献

Phase behavior of blends of a liquid-crystalline (LC) polymer with a non-LC polymer and of a series of copolymers containing mesogenic and nonmesogenic units was studied by thermal, optical, and dynamic mechanical methods. The polymers composing the blends and the copolymers had the same constituent monomers. The blends exhibited phase separation over the whole range of compositions studied as observed by DSC and dynamic mechanical analysis. Two glass transition temperatures (Tg) corresponding to the two components and independence of melting (Tm) and isotropization temperatures (Ti) to changes in composition were observed for the blends. The copolymers did not show phase separation over most of the composition range studied. Only one Tg corresponding to that of the major component could be detected for the copolymers, and the Tg was found to increase with an increase in the amount of nonmesogenic monomer in the copolymers. The difference in phase behavior was explained on the basis of the chemical environment of the constituent units in the blends and in copolymers. Phase inversion in the blends was observed by microscopy when the blends contained 60 mol% or more of the non-LC polymer. 相似文献
