We report on the formation of the polycation/dye/polyanion (PC/D/PA) complexes by the interaction between nonstoichiometric polycation/dye (PC/D) complexes with polyanions. Polycations differed in their content of the (N,N‐dimethyl‐2‐hydroxypropylene ammonium chloride) units in the main chain. Poly(sodium acrylate) (NaPA), poly(sodium 2‐acrylamido‐2‐methylpropane sulfonate) (NaPAMPS) and poly(sodium styrenesulfonate) (NaPSS) were used as polyanions. Crystal Ponceau 6R (CP6R) and Ponceau 4R (P4R) with two or three sulfonic groups were used as anionic dyes. The interaction between nonstoichiometric PC/D complexes and polyanions was followed by UV‐VIS spectroscopy, viscometry, and conductometry measurements. Formation of PC/D/PA complexes takes place mainly by the electrostatic interaction between the polyanion and the free positive charges of the nonstoichiometric PC/D complex. The stoichiometry and the stability of the tricomponent complexes depended on the polycation structure, the structure and molecular weight of polyanion, the dye structure, and the P/D molar ratio. A high amount of the dye was excluded from the complex before the end point when a branched polycation was used. The higher the solubility of the dye the lower the stability of the PC/D/PA complexes. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 37: 409–418, 1999 相似文献

The confined crystallization behavior, melting behavior, and nonisothermal crystallization kinetics of the poly(ethylene glycol) block (PEG) in poly(L ‐lactide)–poly(ethylene glycol) (PLLA–PEG) diblock copolymers were investigated with wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. The analysis showed that the nonisothermal crystallization behavior changed from fitting the Ozawa equation and the Avrami equation modified by Jeziorny to deviating from them with the molecular weight of the poly(L ‐lactide) (PLLA) block increasing. This resulted from the gradual strengthening of the confined effect, which was imposed by the crystallization of the PLLA block. The nucleation mechanism of the PEG block of PLLA15000–PEG5000 at a larger degree of supercooling was different from that of PLLA2500–PEG5000, PLLA5000–PEG5000, and PEG5000 (the numbers after PEG and PLLA denote the molecular weights of the PEG and PLLA blocks, respectively). They were homogeneous nucleation and heterogeneous nucleation, respectively. The PLLA block bonded chemically with the PEG block and increased the crystallization activation energy, but it provided nucleating sites for the crystallization of the PEG block, and the crystallization rate rose when it was heterogeneous nucleation. The number of melting peaks was three and one for the PEG homopolymer and the PEG block of the diblock copolymers, respectively. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The melting and crystallization behavior of polyethylene and isotactic polypropylene containing 1,2‐ or 1,3‐disubstituted cyclopentane units in the main chain has been studied with simultaneous wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) and differential scanning calorimetry. For the ethylene‐based copolymers, the position of a reflection peak in the WAXD patterns shifts to a low angle with the increasing acquired temperature. The temperature dependence on the axial length of the crystal lattice is more marked in the copolymers forming orthorhombic crystals (containing 1,2‐cyclopentane or 5.6 mol % 1,3‐cyclopentane units) than in those forming hexagonal crystals (containing 8.1 mol % 1,3‐cyclopentane units). For the isotactic propylene‐based copolymers, the position of the reflection peaks in the WAXD patterns is independent of the acquired temperature. The proportion of the γ form in the copolymer containing the 1,2‐cyclopentane units is higher than that in the copolymers containing the 1,3‐cyclopentane units. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The double melting behavior of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) was studied with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and wide‐angle X‐ray analysis. DSC melting curves of melt‐crystallized PBT samples, which we prepared by cooling from the melt (250 °C) at various cooling rates, showed two endothermic peaks and an exothermic peak located between these melting peaks. The cooling rate effect on these peaks was investigated. The melt‐crystallized PBT sample cooled at 24 K min?1 was heated at a rate of 1 K min?1, and its diffraction patterns were obtained successively at a rate of one pattern per minute with an X‐ray measurement system equipped with a position‐sensitive proportional counter. The diffraction pattern did not change in the melting process, except for the change in its peak height. This suggests that the double melting behavior does not originate from a change in the crystal structure. The temperature dependence of the diffraction intensity was obtained from the diffraction patterns. With increasing temperature, the intensity decreased gradually in the low‐temperature region and then increased distinctly before a steep decrease due to the final melting. In other words, the temperature‐dependence curve of the diffraction intensity showed a peak that is interpreted as proof of the recrystallization in the melting process. The peak temperature was 216 °C. The temperature‐dependence curve of the enthalpy change obtained by the integration of the DSC curve almost coincided with that of the diffraction intensity. The double melting behavior in the heating process of PBT is concluded to originate from the increase of crystallinity, that is, recrystallization. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Poly(propyl ether imine) (PETIM) dendrimers of one to three generations are used as dendritic cores to identify the influence of varying connector types that connect the dendritic core with peripheral mesogens on the emerging liquid crystalline (LC) properties. The LC properties vary in these dendritic liquid crystals, even when the dendrimer generations and thus the number of peripheral mesogenic moieties remain identical. PETIM dendrimer generations one to three, ester and amide connectors varying with succinates, phthalates, and succinamides, are studied herein. Cholesteryl moieties are installed at the peripheries through the above connectors to induce mesogenic properties. These modified dendritic liquid crystals reveal a layered mesophase structure in most ester and amide connector‐derivatives, whereas a third‐generation phthalate ester dendrimer favors a rectangular columnar mesophase structure. A transition from layered to a rectangular columnar structure results by a mere change in the connector varying between a succinate or succinamide or phthalate, within one particular dendrimer generation and without altering the underlying dendrimer core or the number of mesogenic moieties. The study demonstrates that in dendritic liquid crystals with essentially identical chemical constitutions, a change in the connector type connecting the mesogen with the dendrimer core is sufficient to change the mesophase structures. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The heat capacity of poly(oxyethylene) (POE) with a molar mass of 900,000 Da has been analyzed with differential scanning calorimetry and quasi‐isothermal, temperature‐modulated differential scanning calorimetry. The crystal structure, lattice parameters, and coherently scattering domain sizes have been measured with wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction as a function of temperature. The high‐molar‐mass POE crystals are in a folded‐chain macroconformation and show some locally reversible melting starting already at about 250 K. At 335 K, the thermodynamic heat capacity reaches the level of the melt. The reversible crystallinity depends on the modulation amplitude and has been varied in the melting range from ±0.2 to ±3.0 K. Before melting, there is neither a change in the crystal structure nor a change in the domain size, but the expansivity of the crystals increases at about 320 K. These observations support the interpretation that the monoclinic POE crystals possess a glass transition temperature with a midpoint at about 324 K, whereas the maximum melting temperature is 341 K. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The influence of ZnO nanoparticles on the crystalline structures of nylon‐6 under different crystallization conditions (annealing at different temperatures from the amorphous solid, isothermal crystallization from the melt at different temperatures, and crystallization from the solution) has been examined with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared. ZnO nanoparticles can induce the γ‐crystalline form in nylon‐6 when it is cooled from the melted state and annealed from the amorphous solid. This effect of ZnO nanoparticles increases with decreasing particle size and changes under different crystallization conditions. The effects of ZnO nanoparticles on the crystallization kinetics of nylon‐6 have also been studied with DSC. The results show that ZnO nanoparticles have two competing effects on the crystallization of nylon‐6: inducing the nucleation but retarding the mobility of polymer chains. Finally, the melting behavior of the composites has been investigated with DSC, and the multiple melting peaks of composites containing ZnO nanoparticles and pure nylon‐6 are ascribed to the reorganization of imperfect crystals. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The melting behavior of poly(L ‐lactic acid) film crystallized from the glassy state, either isothermally or nonisothermally, was studied by wide angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), small angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and temperature‐modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC). Up to three crystallization and two melting peaks were observed. It was concluded that these effects could largely be accounted for on the basis of a “melt‐recrystallization” mechanism. When molecular weight is low, two melting endotherms are readily observed. But, without TMDSC, the double melting phenomena of high molecular weight PLLA is often masked by an exotherm just prior to the final melting, as metastable crystals undergo melt‐recrystallization during heating in the DSC. The appearance of a double cold‐crystallization peak during the DSC heating scan of amorphous PLLA film is the net effect of cold crystallization and melt‐recrystallization of metastable crystals formed during the initial cold crystallization. Samples cold‐crystallized at 80 and 90 °C did not exhibit a long period, although substantial crystallinity developed. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermally induced solid‐state reactions and microstructure changes in a high molar mass, semicrystalline, aromatic diacetylene‐containing polyester, poly[2,4‐hexadiyn‐1,6‐ylene terephthalate], were investigated with a combination of laser Raman spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction analysis. The study has provided some new insights into the rather complex solid‐state reactions in the semicrystalline diacetylene‐containing polyester. Results suggest that, in addition to the usual desired solid‐state topochemical crosspolymerization in the crystalline region, a certain degree of random crosslinking reaction occurs in the amorphous region, especially when the annealing is carried out above the glass transition. After prolonged annealing or annealing at a higher temperature, a further reaction involving the formed polydiacetylene chains may occur, as evident from the reduction in crystallinity and even complete loss of crystallinity. An attempt has been made to separate the contribution of the topochemical reaction from the overlapping exothermic activities in the differential scanning calorimetry curves via subtraction. This allows the monitoring of the crystalline‐phase solid‐state topochemical crosspolymerization. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 40: 2354–2363, 2002 相似文献

A new aryl polyester, poly(pentamethylene terephthalate) (PPT) with five methylene groups in the repeat unit, was synthesized. Its multiple‐melting behavior and crystal structure were analyzed with differential scanning calorimetry and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction. In addition, the spherulitic/lamellar morphology of melt‐crystallized PPT was investigated. Typical Maltese‐cross spherulites (with no rings) were seen in melt‐crystallized PPT at low temperatures (70–90 °C), but ring patterns were seen in PPT crystallized only at temperatures ranging from 100 to 115 °C, whereas rings disappeared with crystallization above 120 °C. The mechanisms of the rings in PPT were explained with several coordinated directional changes (wavy changes, twisting changes, and combinations) in the lamellae during growth. Scanning electron microscopy, in combination with atomic force microscopy, further proved that the ringed spherulites originated from the aggregation of sufficient numbers of edge‐on lamellar crystals; the radial‐growth edge‐on/flat‐on lamellae could be twisted and/or waved to form realistic band patterns. A postulated model properly described a possible origin of the ring bands through combined mechanisms of waving (zigzagging) and twisting (spiraling) of the lamellae during crystallization. Superimposed twisting and/or wavy models during crystallization were examined as examples. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 42: 4421–4432, 2004 相似文献

The sub‐Tm exotherms in polyamide 6 (PA6) have been carefully re‐examined by differential scanning calorimetry and X‐ray diffraction, considering the effects of processing and thermal history, addition of water and clay. The results obtained cast doubt on Khanna's proposal that sub‐Tm exotherm in PA6 comes from the release of strain energy absorbed during processing, and suggested that the origin of sub‐Tm exotherm is the γ?α transformation at the premelting temperature, namely, the less thermodynamically stable γ‐form (γns) transforming into the more thermodynamically stable α‐form (αs). The presence of water or clay in PA6 samples facilitated the formation of γns at corresponding cooling rates, and enhanced the development of sub‐Tm exotherms. During the heating scan of PA6/clay composites, the initial γns can be transformed into more stable (γs)t and αs at the same time, which can be thought as the origin of their sub‐Tm events. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effect of X‐ray irradiation on crystallization of the blend of poly(N‐methyldodecano‐12‐lactam) (PMDL) with 29.5% of statistical copolymer poly(styrene‐stat‐acrylic acid) (PSAA) was studied using DSC, WAXD, and solid‐state 13C NMR methods. Significant acceleration of crystallization was found in the as‐prepared X‐ray irradiated (XI), that is, WAXD‐measured, samples compared with the nonirradiated (NI) ones. In the XI blend, the incubation period was shortened and crystallization proceeded at significantly higher rate. In the asymptote, after 100–120 days, both NI and XI samples reached the same final crystallinity of about 18%. The second DSC runs indicated that the stimulating effect of X‐ray irradiation was eliminated by heating the sample during the first run. The 13C NMR studies have shown that PMDL chains crystallize exclusively in cis conformation on the C? N bond. Both in neat PMDL and in the blend with PSAA, the XI samples contained a significantly higher proportion of cis conformers in amorphous phase than the NI samples. It is suggested that energy absorbed by the sample during the standard WAXD measurement helps overcome the barrier of the trans/cis transition in the PMDL molecules. This opens the way to the formation of a higher number of critical equilibrium nuclei and, finally, results in accelerated crystallization of the XI samples. No irreversible changes were found in the XI samples. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 46: 311–321, 2008 相似文献

Soy protein isolate (SPI) and glycerol were mixed under mild (L series) and severe (H series) mixing conditions, respectively, and then were compression-molded at 140 degrees C and 20 MPa to prepare the sheets (SL and SH series). The glass transition behaviors and microstructures of the soy protein plasticized with glycerol were investigated carefully by using differential scanning calorimetry and small-angle X-ray scattering. The results revealed that there were two glass transitions in the SPI/glycerol systems. When the glycerol contents ranged from 25 to 40 wt.-%, all of the SL- and SH-series sheets showed two glass transition temperatures (T(g1) and T(g2)) corresponding to glycerol-rich and protein-rich domains, respectively. The T(g1) values of the sheets decreased from -28.5 to -65.2 degrees C with an increase of glycerol content from 25 to 50 wt.-%, whereas the T(g2) values were almost invariable at about 44 degrees C. The results from wide-angle X-ray diffraction and small-angle X-ray scattering indicated that both protein-rich and glycerol-rich domains existed as amorphous morphologies, and the radii of gyration (R(g)) of the protein-rich domains were around 60 nm, a result suggesting the existence of stable protein domains. The results above suggest that protein-rich domains were composed of the compact chains of protein with relatively low compatibility to glycerol and glycerol-rich domains consisted of relative loose chains that possessed good compatibility with glycerol. The significant microphase separation occurred in the SPI sheets containing more than 25 wt.-% glycerol, with a rapid decrease of the tensile strength and Young's modulus.

We examine the crystallization and chain conformation behavior of semicrystalline poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and amorphous poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) mixtures with wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS), and small‐angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments. For blends with PEO weight fractions (wtPEO) greater than or equal to 0.3, below the melting point of PEO, the WAXD patterns reveal that crystalline PEO belongs to the monoclinic system. The unit‐cell parameters are independent of wtPEO. However, the bulk crystallinity determined from WAXD decreases as wtPEO decreases. The scattered intensities from SAXS experiments show that the systems form an ordered crystalline/amorphous lamellar structure. In a combination of WAXD and SAXS analysis, the related morphological parameters are assigned correctly. With the addition of amorphous PVAc, both the average amorphous layer thickness and long spacing increase, whereas the average crystalline layer thickness decreases. We find that a two‐phase analysis of the correlation function from SAXS, in which the scattering invariant is linearly proportional to the volume fraction of lamellar stacks, describes quantitatively the crystallization behavior of PEO in the presence of PVAc. When wtPEO is close to 1, the samples are fully spaced‐filled with lamellar stacks. As wtPEO decreases from 1.0 to 0.3, more PVAc chains are excluded from the interlamellar region into the interfibrillar region. The fraction outside the lamellar stacks, which is completely occupied with PVAc chains, increases from 0 to 58%. Because the radius of gyration of PVAc with a random‐coil configuration determined from SANS is smaller than the average amorphous layer thickness from SAXS, we believe that the amorphous PVAc chains still persist with a random‐coil configuration even when the blends form an ordered structure. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Multiple melting peaks in some semicrystalline polymers such as poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) have caused some difficulty in estimating accurately the equilibrium melting points. PTT forms a miscible blend with amorphous poly(ether imide) (PEI); for comparison purposes, a miscible system of a fixed composition (PTT/PEI of weight ratio = 9/1) was determined. PTT and its miscible blend both exhibited dual melting peaks (labeled as low and high peaks: Tm,L, Tm,H), and the first peaks (Tm,L), not the second peak (Tm,H), should be used for extrapolation. The equilibrium melting temperatures (T) of neat PTT and its blend PTT/PEI (9/1) were 245.2 and 242.4 °C, respectively, by the linear Hoffman–Weeks treatment using the corrected values of Tm,L (i.e., values obtained using a heating rate close to zero). Linear and nonlinear treatments led to a significant difference in estimated T, and the relative validity of these two methods is discussed. The nonlinear estimate yielded a higher value by about 27.3 °C for neat PTT and 23.1 °C for the PTT/PEI (9/1) blend, respectively (also the correction in Tm,L at the same condition mentioned previously). Results showed melting depression in miscible PTT/PEI (9/1). In addition, the T value of neat PTT was higher than that of PTT/PEI (9/1) owing to much thicker and more‐perfect crystals in neat PTT. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Copolyamides 2.14/piperazine.14 with variable built‐in ratios of 1,2‐ethylenediamine (1,2‐EDA) and piperazine (pip) were synthesized by solution polycondensation. The built‐in ratio of both diamine comonomers was determined with solution 13C NMR analysis. The gradual replacement of 1,2‐EDA units by cycloaliphatic pip units in polyamide 2.14 resulted in a progressively decreased melting (Tm) and crystallization temperature of the obtained copolyamides. Apparently, the Tm raising effect of the incorporation of rigid cycloaliphatic moieties is overruled by the simultaneous Tm reduction caused by a decreasing hydrogen‐bond density. Indications for cocrystallization of 2.14 and pip.14 repeating units were obtained by the thermal analysis of copolyamides 2.14/pip.14 and of a blend of both homopolyamides. A preliminary wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction study pointed to the same conclusion. Solid‐state NMR spectroscopy was used to investigate the influence of the composition on the percentage of the rigid phase of the copolyamides and delivered additional indications for cocrystallization. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermotropic liquid‐crystalline (LC) semirigid polyesters based on three terphenyl analogues of 1,3,4‐thiadiazole (2,5‐diphenyl‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole)s (DPTD) linking undecamethyleneoxy chain at different substituted positions were synthesized from three disubstituted (4,4′‐, 3,4′‐, and 3,3′‐) dioxydiundecanols of DPTD and four diesters, and the relationships between polymer structures and LC and optical properties were investigated. DSC measurements, texture observations, and wide‐angle X‐ray analyses revealed that the polymers composed of DPTD moiety having a more linear molecular structure and 1,4‐phenylene unit or short aliphatic chain tend to exhibit LC smectic C and/or A phases. The following observations were made: (1) the emergence of smectic C and/or A phases in all the polymers on the basis of 4,4′‐disubstituted DPTD, (2) formation of enantiotropic smectic C and/or A phases in the polymers containing a 1,4‐phenylene unit in the main chain, (3) formation of a more stable smectic C phase in the polymers having a short aliphatic [(CH2)4] chain, and (4) a decrease of the mesomorphic property of the polyesters in the order of 4,4′‐DPTD > 3,4′‐DPTD > 3,3′‐DPTD. Solution and solid‐state ultraviolet–visible and photoluminescent spectra indicated that all the polyesters display maximum absorbances and blue emissions arising from the DPTD moiety, whose peak maxima were shifted to lower wavelengths in the order of 4,4′‐DPTD > 3,4′‐DPTD > 3,3′‐DPTD as well as the aforementioned LC property. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polymer:fullerene blends have been widely studied as an inexpensive alternative to traditional silicon solar cells. Some polymer:fullerene blends, such as blends of poly(2,5‐bis(3‐tetradecylthiophen‐2‐yl)thieno[3,2‐b]thiophene (pBTTT) with phenyl‐c71‐butyric acid methyl ester (PC71BM), form bimolecular crystals due to fullerene intercalation between the polymer side chains. Here we present the determination of the eutectic pBTTT:PC71BM phase diagram using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and two‐dimensional grazing incidence X‐ray scattering (2D GIXS) with in‐situ thermal annealing. The phase diagram explains why the most efficient pBTTT:PC71BM solar cells have 75–80 wt % PC71BM since these blends lie in the center of the only room‐temperature phase region containing both electron‐conducting (PC71BM) and hole‐conducting (bimolecular crystal) phases. We show that intercalation can be suppressed in 50:50 pBTTT:PC71BM blends by using rapid thermal annealing to heat the blends above the eutectic temperature, which forces PC71BM out of the bimolecular crystal, followed by quick cooling to kinetically trap the pure PC71BM phase. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The poly(p‐phenylene sulfide) (PPS) nonisothermal cold‐crystallization behavior was investigated in a wide heating rate range. The techniques employed were the usual Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and the less conventional FT‐IR spectroscopy and Energy Dispersive X‐ray Diffraction (EDXD). The low heating rates (Φ) explored by EDXD (0.1 K min?1) and FT‐IR (0.5–10 K min?1) are contiguous and complementary to the DSC ones (5–30 K min?1). The crystallization temperature changes from 95 °C at Φ = 0.05 K min?1 to 130 °C at Φ = 30 K min?1. In such a wide temperature range the Kissinger model failed. The model is based on an Arrhenius temperature dependence of the crystallization rate and is widely employed to evaluate the activation energy of the crystallization process. The experimental results were satisfactorily fit by replacing in the Kissinger model the Arrhenius equation with the Vogel–Fulcher–Tamann function and fixing U* = 6.28 k J mol?1, the activation energy needed for the chains movements, according to Hoffmann. The temperature at which the polymer chains are motionless (T∞ = 42 °C) was found by fitting the experimental data. It appears to be reasonable in the light of our previously reported isothermal crystallization results, which indicated T∞ = 48 °C. Moreover, at the lower heating rate, mostly explored by FT‐IR, a secondary stepwise crystallization process was well evidenced. In first approximation, it contributes to about 17% of the crystallinity reached by the sample. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 43: 2725–2736, 2005 相似文献

Alumina/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanocomposites were synthesized by an in situ free‐radical polymerization process with 38 and 17 nm diameter γ‐alumina nanoparticles. At extremely low filler weight fractions (<1.0 wt % of 38 nm fillers or < 0.5 wt % of 17 nm fillers) the glass‐transition temperature (Tg) of the nanocomposites drops by 25 °C when compared to the neat polymer. Further additions of filler (up to 10 wt %) do not lead to additional Tg reductions. The thermal behavior is shown to vary with particle size, but this dependence can be normalized with respect to a specific surface area. The nanocomposite Tg phenomenon is hypothesized to be because of nonadhering nanoparticles that serve as templates for a porous system with many internal interfaces that break up the percolating structure of dynamically heterogeneous domains recently suggested by Long, D.; and Lequeux, F. Eur Phys J E 2001, 4, 371 to be responsible for the Tg reductions in polymer ultrathin films. The results also point to a far field effect of the nanoparticle surface on the bulk matrix. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 42: 4371–4383, 2004 相似文献
