研究了不同组成的苯乙烯-丁二烯-苯乙烯嵌段共聚物(SBS)的相形态与粘弹弛豫.用透射电子显微镜(TEM)表征了SBS的形态,结果显示,几种SBS均呈层状结构,随着苯乙烯含量的降低,聚苯乙烯(PS)相的尺寸稍有减小,而聚丁二烯(PB)相尺寸明显增大.用动态流变学方法考察了不同温度下SBS嵌段大分子的弛豫行为,结果表明,苯乙烯含量减少,PS相玻璃化转变和有序-无序转变温度均降低;苯乙烯含量少的,在有序-无序转变过程中呈现出高且宽的损耗峰,表明有序-无序转变过程中能量的耗散主要由两相溶合时分子链间的内摩擦所决定,分子链越长,内摩擦越大,能量耗散越大.

Macromolecular dynamics of sulfonated poly(styrene-b-ethylene-ran-butylene-b-styrene) block copolymers by broadband dielectric spectroscopy

Macromolecular dynamics of sulfonated poly(styrene-b-ethylene-ran-butylene-b-styrene) (sSEBS) triblock copolymers were investigated using broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS). Two main relaxations corresponding to the glass transitions in the EB and S block phases were identified and their temperature dependences were VFT-like. T_g for the S block phase shifted to higher temperature due to restrictions on chain mobility caused by hydrogen bonded SO₃H groups. While the EB block phase T_g appeared to remain constant with degree of sulfonation in DMA experiments, it shifted somewhat upward in BDS spectra. A low temperature relaxation beneath the glass transition of the EB block phase was attributed to short range chain motions. The Kramers–Krönig integral transformation was used to calculate conductivity-free loss permittivity spectra from real permittivity spectra to enhance true relaxation peaks. A loss permittivity peak tentatively assigned to relaxation of internal S-EB interfacial polarization was seen at temperatures above the S block phase glass transition, and the temperature dependence of this relaxation was VFT-like. The fragilities of the EB and S block domains in sulfonated SEBS decreased after sulfonation. The temperature dependence of the dc conduction contribution to sSEBS loss spectra also followed VFT-like behavior and S block segmental relaxation time correlated well with conductivity according to the fractional Debye–Stokes–Einstein equation.

Thermal and mechanical properties of radiation crosslinked poly(tetrafluoroethylene-co-perfluoromethyl vinyl ether)

The effect of irradiation temperature on the polymer properties was investigated for the fluoroelastomer poly(tetrafluoroethylene-co-perfluoromethylvinyl ether) (TFE/PMVE). TFE/PMVE samples were γ-irradiated to 150 kGy at temperatures ranging from 77 K to 373 K. Analysis of the sol/gel behaviour, tensile properties, and glass transition temperatures indicated that crosslinking commenced in the temperature range 195 to 263 K, for a dose of 150 kGy. The latter temperature was 13 K below the glass transition temperature. Crosslinking remained relatively constant to higher temperatures. Chain scission reactions were found to occur well below the glass transition temperature and increased at higher temperatures. The optimum temperature for the radiation crosslinking of TFE/PMVE, for the temperatures investigated, was 263 K.     

Study of Gamma-Irradiated Polyamide Using Thermomechanical Spectrometry and Radiothermoluminescence

The molecular–topological structure of polyamide before and after γ-irradiation has been first studied by thermomechanical spectrometry. The γ-irradiation with a dose up to 300 kGy does not change the topological structure of the polymer, the four-block pseudo-network structure of which contains crystalline segments of macromolecules and polyassociative entities of the cluster type in addition to low-and high-temperature amorphous blocks. During irradiation, only interblock mass transfer of the chain segments occurs, resulting in different dose-dependent values for the molecular weight of the chains, their weight fraction in each topological block, and the glass transition and molecular flow temperatures of the polymer. Radiothermoluminescence curves exhibit three maxima at 152, 200, and 330 K, of which the last one is detected in a temperature region close to the glass transition temperature of the high-temperature amorphous block on the thermomechanical analysis curve of the polymer.     

Dielectric relaxation studies in poly(hexamethylenesebacate) (HMS), poly(2-methyl-2-ethyl propylenesebacate) (MEPS), poly(2,5-dimethylbutylene sebacate) (DBS), and block copolymers of HMS and MEPS

The α and β dielectric relaxations of poly(hexamethylenesebacate) (HMS), poly(2-methyl-2-ethyl propylenesebacate) (MEPS), poly(1,4- dimethylbutylene sebacate) (DBS) and block copolymers of HMS and MEPS have been studied. The α relaxation is amenable to a W.L.F. analysis and is associated with the glass transition of the polymers. This relaxation moves to higher temperatures with increasing HMS content in HMS/MEPS block copolymers. All the polymers studied exhibit psuedo-activation energies of ～32 kcal/mole at the glass transition. It is concluded that because the superposition principle is operative in the block copolymers, the glass transition must be very similar in both polymers and morphology and degree of crystallinity do not greatly affect this transition. The β relaxation which has been associated with segmental relaxation of polymethylene segments in polymers is also shown to be a function of HMS/MEPS block copolymer composition and chemical structure. This relaxation takes place at lower temperatures with increased HMS content in the blocks and also shifts to lower temperatures with side chain substitution adjacent to the carbonyl group in the polymer. It is concluded that the β relaxation takes place in the amorphous and crystalline regions of the polymer.     

Fracture energies of styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymers (I). Effects of rate,temperature, and casting solvent

Specimens of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) block copolymers, Kraton D-1102, were prepared by solution casting using three different solvents: toluene, cyclohexane, and a mixture of tetrahydrofuran and methyl ethyl ketone (THF/MEK). Measurements of fracture energies of SBS specimens were carried out at various temperatures and rates using two methods (i.e., a conventional tear test and a recently developed cutting test). Effect of casting solvent on the fracture energy was investigated as well. It was found that stick-slip tearing dominates at low temperatures (−50 ∼20°C). Tear strength increased with decreasing temperature. Eventually, a value of 180 kJ/m² was reached at −70°C, close to the glass transition temperature of polybutadiene phase. At temperatures higher than 20°C, however, steady tearing was found and the tear strength gradually decreased with increasing temperature. Tear strength was virtually zero at 100°C, above the glass transition temperature of polystyrene phase. Effect of temperature on tear strength is more pronounced than that of tearing rate. In contrast, the intrinsic strength of SBS block copolymers determined from cutting test remains unchanged, about 570 J/m², over a wide range of temperatures and rates. Specimens cast from THF/MEK solution exhibit yielding phenomena when stretched. Moreover, they possess a relatively larger tear strength, compared to those cast from either toluene or cyclohexane solution. A more continuous polystyrene phase is expected to develop in THF/MEK as-cast specimens which is believed to account for the large tear strength. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A partial phase diagram for a mixture of polystyrene with a low molecular weight styrene-dimethylsiloxane block copolymer

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to examine the miscibility of polystyrene (PS), mol. wt. 10⁵, with a phase-separated styrene-dimethylsiloxane (S-DMS) diblock copolymer, M_n = 3800, 86 wt% S. Mixtures whose S content varied from 4 to 96 wt% PS were examined at a 10 K min^?1 heating rate following a 200 K min^?1 cooling rate from temperatures varying from 403 to 573 K. At some compositions, two glass transition temperatures, T_gs, corresponding to PS transitions were observed; at others only a single T_g was observed. When it was assumed that the 200 K min^?1 cooling rate corresponded to quenching from the starting temperature, and when the heat capacity changes at the S glass transitions were used to calculate the percentage of S repeat units undergoing each glass transition, it was possible to calculate an approximate partial phase diagram for this mixture. At 96 wt% PS, there was evidence for a small amount of mixed S phase, possibly block copolymer micelles, in equilibrium with PS; from about 60 to 90 wt% PS, the S repeat units from the block copolymer appeared to be completely mixed with the PS. At lower wt% PS, unmixed block copolymer was in equilibrium with block copolymer whose S segments were mixed with the PS. The phase diagram appeared to vary only slightly with temperature.     

Glass transition temperature of low molecular weight styrene–isoprene block copolymers

Different series of poly(styrene–isoprene) diblock and poly(styrene–isoprene–styrene) triblock copolymers were prepared. In each series, the low molecular weight polystyrene block was kept constant, and the molecular weight of the polyisoprene block varied. The glass transition behavior of these polymers was studied and their glass transition temperatures compared with those of the random copolymers of styrene and isoprene. It is concluded that some low molecular weight styrene-isoprene block copolymers form a single phase. Krause's thermodynamic treatment of phase separation in block copolymers was applied to the data. One arrives at a polystyrene–polyisoprene interaction parameter χ1,2 ≈ 0.1. The experimental and theoretical limitations of this result are discussed.     

Study of size-dependent glass transition and Kauzmann temperatures of tin dioxide nanoparticles

The size and shape effects on melting, glass transition, and Kauzmann temperatures of SnO₂ nanoparticles using Lindemann??s criterion have been studied. The melting temperature of SnO₂ nanoparticles decreases as the size of the particle decreases. As the particle size increases, melting temperature increases and approaches to the melting temperature 1,903?K of bulk irrespective of the shape. The glass transition and Kauzmann temperatures are analyzed through the size effect on the melting temperature. The glass transition and Kauzmann temperatures decrease with the decrease in size of SnO₂ nanoparticles.
