The effect of annealing on the morphology and subsequent crystallization kinetics of poly (ethylene terephthalate)/polycarbonate blends have been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarized light microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). During annealing transesterification and phase coarsening occurred, and the final properties were compromizes between these two competing effects. Initially, the effect of phase separation dominated and the rate of cold crystallization of PET increased. Transesterification, however, became increasingly important and the rate of crystallization decreased progressively until finally the blend completely lost the ability to crystallize. At this stage in the reaction a single glass transition was observed and uniform glassy material observed in the SEM. The maximum crystallinity of the blend achieved on heating showed the same trend in first increasing and then decreasing with annealing time. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The crystallization of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was studied in the presence of nucleating agents and promoters. The effect of both by themselves and in concert was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry. The aim of this work is to find conditions of fast crystallization of PET. Sodium benzoate(SB) and Surlyn® (S) substantially increase the crystallization rate of PET at higher temperature owing to a reduction in the energy barrier towards primary nucleation, but they accelerate crystallization even more at lower temperature with an additional improvement of the molecular mobility of PET chains. Chain scission of PET caused by the reaction with the nucleating agents was proven by determination of molecular weight. The addition of S alone led to a lower reduction in molecular weight. A series of N-alkyl-p-toluenesulfonamides (ATSAs) were shown to effectively promote molecular motion of the PET chains, leading to an increase in crsytallization rate at lower temperature. A remarkable acceleration of crystallization of PET was attained at lower temperature when S and ATSA were added together. When the content of ATSA is low, S has the dominant influence due to its dual effect of decreasing energy barrier towards nucleation and promoting molecular motion of PET chains. A further increase of crystallization rate of PET was found only after an addition of ATSA of above 5 wt.%.Dedicated to Professor Bernhard Wunderlich on the occasion of his 65th birthdayThis work was supported by State Science and Technology Commission, and partially by National Science Foundation. 相似文献

Small-angle X-ray scattering, wide-angle X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry analysis were carried out to evaluate the evolution of the supermolecular structure of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) during isothermal crystallization and annealing process. PET was crystallized from the melt by isothermal treatments at 226 °C. Partially crystallized samples were prepared interrupting the crystallization by quenching, while prolonged treatments were performed to prepare annealed samples. The adopted crystallization procedures allowed to form crystals which developed during primary and secondary crystallization, and the annealing process. On the basis of X-ray data, the lamellar and amorphous phases were unambiguously attributed. The lamellar thickness and the crystallinity progressively enhance with increasing the time of thermal treatment; on the contrary, the long period decreases and this effect is mainly due to the contraction of the amorphous phase. The melting behaviour of the annealed samples indicates that the heating-induced crystal reorganization phenomena are inconsistent. The interdependency between the melting temperature and the crystal thickness allowed to extrapolate the equilibrium melting temperature. 相似文献

The glass-transition temperature and non-isothermal crystallization of poly(trimethylene terephthalate)/poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PTT/PEN) blends were investigated by using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The results suggested that the binary blends showed different crystallization and melting behaviors due to their different component of PTT and PEN. All of the samples exhibited a single glass-transition temperature, indicating that the component PTT and PEN were miscible in amorphous phase. The value of Tg predicted well by Gordon-Taylor equation decreased gradually with increasing of PTT content. The commonly used Avrami equation modified by Jeziorny, Ozawa theory and the method developed by Mo were used, respectively, to fit the primary stage of non-isothermal crystallization. The kinetic parameters suggested that the PTT content improved the crystallization of PEN in the binary blend. The crystallization growth dimension, crystallization rate and the degree of crystallinity of the blends were increased with the increasing content of PTT. The effective activation energy calculated by the advanced iso-conversional method developed by Vyazovkin also concluded that the value of Ea depended not only on the system but also on temperature, that is, the binary blend with more PTT component had higher crystallization ability and the crystallization ability is increased with increasing temperature. The kinetic parameters U* and Kg were also determined, respectively, by the Hoffman-Lauritzen theory. 相似文献

The crystallization behavior of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) with disodium terephthalate (DST) as nucleating agent was investigated. A detailed analysis of the crystallization course from the melt was made with the Avrami expression. The results demonstrated that DST additive can promote the PET crystallization rate in its entire crystallizable temperature range, and the acceleration degree of DST decreases with increasing temperature after a temperature higher than 180 °C. The values of the Avrami exponent indicated that the crystallization mode in Avrami theory is not suitable for the crystallization of these polymers, and the mechanism of the heterogeneous nucleation on PET crystallization is discussed. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT)/poly(ethylene naphthalate) (PEN) blends were miscible in the amorphous state in all of the blend compositions studied, as evidenced by a single, composition-dependent glass transition temperature (Tg) observed for each blend composition. The variation in the Tg value with the blend composition was well predicted by the Gordon-Taylor equation, with the fitting parameter being 0.57. The cold-crystallization peak temperature decreased with increasing PTT content, while the melt-crystallization peak temperature decreased with increasing amount of the minor component. The subsequent melting behavior after both cold- and melt-crystallization exhibited melting point depression, in which the observed melting temperatures decreased with increasing amount of the minor component. During melt-crystallization, both components in the blends crystallized concurrently just to form their own crystals. The blend with 60% w/w of PTT exhibited the lowest total apparent degree of crystallinity. 相似文献

Crystallization behavior of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/clay nanocomposites has been investigated in terms of differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) analysis, polarizing optical microscopy (POM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation. The nanocomposites for investigation were prepared via in situ polycondensation. Crystalline morphologies were observed through POM and SEM. The nonisothermal and isothermal crystallization rates of different samples were determined for comparison based on DSC data. Secondary nucleation analysis was also performed based on bulk crystallization data derived from DSC analysis. The results revealed that nucleating abilities of montmorillonites (MMT) depended on the dispersion state of clay in matrix, the surface modification status, and the metallic derivatives released from MMT during in situ synthesis. The quantities of metallic elements released were measured by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) analysis. The results showed that the release of these metallic derivatives was also affected by surfactant molecules anchored on the surface of MMT. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Structural changes occurring during crystallization of quenched amorphous poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and subsequent cooling/heating cycles have been studied by real-time small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), using synchrotron radiation. Initial crystallization is found to occur by insertion of new lamellae between the existing ones, while rapid continuous melting/recrystallization happens when the cold-crystallized PET samples are heated above the previous highest annealing temperature. Such melting/recrystalization results in irreversible increases in the lamellar long period, the crystal thickness and the density difference between the crystalline and amorphous regions; in contrast, at temperatures below the prior highest crystallization temperature, the structural changes are dominated by reversible effects such as thermal expansion. However, throughout the entire temperature range up to the melting point around 250 °C, the crystal core thickness remains quite small, less than ca. 50 Å, and the linear crystallinity of lamellar stacks remains nearly constant around 0.3. Such a low crystallinity indicates the presence of thick order-disorder interfacial layers on the lamellar surface, whose thickness increases with temperature.Dedicated to Prof. E. W.

The effect of a small amount of poly(ethylene naphthalate) (PEN) in its blends with poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) on isothermal melt-crystallization kinetics and spherulitic morphology of the blends was thoroughly investigated. The maximum PEN content in the blends was 9 wt%. Due to the single composition-dependent glass transition temperature (Tg) that was observed for each blend, these blends appeared to be miscible in the amorphous state. After isothermal crystallization from the melt state, the neat PTT and its blends with PEN exhibited either double or triple melting endotherms. The triple endothermic peaks were observed in both the neat PTT and the blends when being crystallized at crystallization temperatures (Tc) of less than or equal to 195 °C. The equilibrium melting temperature () for the neat PTT was determined based on the linear Hoffman–Weeks extrapolative method to be 248 °C. Such values for the blends were found to decrease with the addition and increasing amount of PEN. Both the neat PTT and the blends were isothermally crystallized over the Tc range of 190–205 °C. At a given Tc, the 97PTT/3PEN blend exhibited a half-time of crystallization (t0.5) value that was lower, while it exhibited reciprocal half-time (), Avrami rate constant (KA), and spherulitic growth rate (G) values that were greater, than those of the neat PTT. With further increase in the PEN content, the t0.5 value increased, while the , KA, and G values decreased. Analysis of the G values based on the Lauritzen–Hoffman's (LH) secondary nucleation theory showed that the neat PTT and the 91PTT/9PEN blend exhibited a regime II→III transition at 194 °C (467.2 K), while no regime transition was observed for the other two blends. The lateral and the fold surface free energies (σ and σe) and the work of chain folding (q) for the neat PTT and the blends were 19.4, 30.2–46.3 erg cm−2, and 2.4–3.6 kcal mol−1, respectively. Lastly, the effect of both the Tc and the PEN content on morphology and texture of the PTT spherulites was also investigated and the results showed that the texture of the spherulites became coarser with increasing Tc and PEN content. 相似文献

The Monte Carlo (MC) method based on the rotational-isomeric-state (RIS) model is adopted in studying the elastic behavior of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) chains in this paper. The mean-square end-to-end distance 〈R2〉, the mean-square radius of gyration 〈S2〉, and the ratio of 〈R2〉/〈S2〉 all increase with elongation ratio λ. The interior conformations are also investigated through calculating the a priori probability of rotational state in the process of tensile elongation. The radius of gyration tensor S is introduced here in order to measure the shape of PET chains, and increases with elongation ratio λ, however, some different behaviors are obtained for . Here , and are the eigenvalues of the radius of gyration tensor . The average energy per repeat unit 〈U〉 and the average free energy per repeat unit 〈A〉 are also calculated, and we find that the average energy decreases with elongation ratio λ, however, the average free energy per repeat unit increases with elongation ratio λ. Elastic force f, energy contribution to force fU, and entropy contribution to force fS are also investigated. Both elastic force f and entropy contribution to force fS increases with λ, however, energy contribution to force fU and the ratio fU/f decreases with λ. The ratio of fU/f is less than zero and almost independent of chain length. The results of these microscopic calculations may explain some macroscopic phenomena of rubber elasticity. 相似文献

By using wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), thermal analysis, scanning and optical microscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses, this study has demonstrated that blends of two semicrystalline polyesters, poly(trimethylene terephthalate) and poly(ethylene naphthalate) (PTT/PEN), were initially immiscible in as-blended state. The process of blend phase/morphology changes upon extended heating/annealing at elevated temperatures was monitored and probed. With reactions induced at heating/annealing at high temperatures (300°C) for long enough times, the original two phases quickly merged into a single phase. NMR analyses have shown that the products of the transreactions are identified as the random copolyesters (termed as EN-TT). From the NMR results, statistical analyses revealed that the average sequence lengths decreased upon heating, and the degree of chain randomness increased with time of heating at the fixed temperature. Upon extended heating, all PTT and PEN chains could be fully transformed into random copolymers of higher randomness with only a single but amorphous phase. Results are compared to another blend system comprised of PEN and a homologous polyester, PPT, of different structure. Influence of polyester structure on transreactions and phase homogenization process is analyzed. 相似文献

Linear and branched poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) copolymers with polyethylene glycol) (PEG) methyl ether (700 or 2000 g/mol) end groups were synthesized using conventional melt polymerization. DSC analysis demonstrated that low levels of PEG end groups accelerated PET crystallization. The incorporated PEG end groups also decreased the crystallization temperature of PET dramatically, and copolymers with a high content of PEG (>17.6 wt%) were able to crystallize at room temperature. Rheological analysis demonstrated that the presence of PEG end groups effectively decreased the melt viscosities and facilitated melt processing. XPS and ATR-FTIR revealed that the PEG end groups tended to aggregate on the surface, and the surface of compression molded films containing 34.0 wt% PEG were PEG rich (85 wt% PEG). PEG end-capped PET (34.0 wt% PEG) and PET films were immersed into a fibrinogen solution (0.7 mg/mL BSA) for 72 h to investigate the propensity for protein adhesion. XPS demonstrated that the concentration of nitrogen (1.05%) on the surface of PEG endcapped PET film was statistically lower than PET (7.67%). SEM analysis was consistent with XPS results, and revealed the presence of adsorbed protein on the surface of PET films. 相似文献

After isothermal crystallization, poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) showed double endothermic behavior in the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) heating scan. During the heating scans of semicrystalline PET, a metastable melt which comes from melting thinner lamellar crystal populations formed between the low and the upper endothermic temperatures. The metastable melt can recrystallize immediately just above the low melting temperature and form thicker lamellae than the original ones. The thickness and perfection depends on the crystallization time and crystallization temperature. The crystallization kinetics of this metastable melt can be determined by means of DSC. The kinetics analysis showed that the isothermal crystallization of the metastable PET melt proceeds with an Avrami exponent of n = 1.0 ∼ 1.2, probably reflecting one‐dimensional or irregular line growth of the crystal occurring between the existing main lamellae with heterogeneous nucleation. This is in agreement with the hypothesis that the melting peaks are associated with two distinct crystal populations with different thicknesses. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Polymer-supported lipid bilayer is a key enabling technology for the design and fabrication of novel biomimetic devices. To date, the physical driving force underlying the formation of polymer-supported lipid bilayer remains to be determined. In this study, the interaction between dipalmitoylphosphocholine (DPPC) vesicle and poly(ethylene terephthalate) [PET] surface with or without grafted poly(acrylic acid) [PAA] layer is examined with several biophysical techniques. First, vesicle deformation analysis shows that the geometry of adherent vesicle on either plain PET or PAA-grafted PET surface is best described by a truncated sphere model. At neutral pH, the degree of deformation and adhesion energy are unaltered by the grafted polymerization of acrylic acid on PET surface. Interestingly, the average magnitude of adhesion energy is increased by 185% and −43% on PAA-grated PET and plain PET surface, respectively, towards an increase of pH at room temperature. Our results demonstrate the possibility of tuning the adhesive interaction between vesicle and polymer cushion through the control of polyelectrolyte ionization on the solid support. 相似文献

The conditions of synthesis of statistical poly(ethylene succinate-co-terephthalate) copolymers (2GTS) and high molecular weight poly(ethylene succinate) (PES) with good hydrolytic and optical parameters, designed for the production of biodegradable products and resins, are presented in this article. Copolymers were prepared by melt polycondensation of bis-(β-hydroxyethylene terephthalate) (BHET) and succinic acid (SA) with excess of ethylene glycol (2G) in the presence of a novel titanium/silicate catalyst (C-94) and catalytic grade of germanium dioxide (GeO2) as cocatalyst. The chemical structure and physical properties of those materials were characterized by 1H NMR, FT-IR, dynamical-mechanical thermal analyses (DMTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), solution viscosity and spectroscopic methods. The hydrolytic degradation was performed in a water solution with variable pH, also in garden soil and in compost. The highest hydrolytic degradation rate was observed for pH 4 and for compost. Better hydrolytic degradation values in compost medium were observed for copolyester prepared in the presence of GeO2 as polycondensation cocatalyst. The copolyester with 40 mol% of aliphatic units was chosen for industrial syntheses which were performed in ELANA and subsequently the processing parameters and compatibility with potato starch of this polyester were checked by BIOP Biopolymer Technologies AG. 相似文献

The interaction between poly(ethylene terephthalate) and four vinyl monomers, methacrylic acid, methyl methacrylate, styrene, and vinyl acetate, has been studied using hydrogen peroxide, benzoyl peroxide, azobisisobutyronitrile, and cobalt acetylacetonate as initiators. The ease of addition of the monomer to the polymer follows the solubility of the monomer in the polymer film. No chemical interaction occurs between the PET film and the monomer; rather, the monomer is homopolymerized within the film and forms a semi-interpenetrating network so that the two homopolymers cannot be separated unless the PET matrix is destroyed. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The morphological development and crystallization behavior of a poly(ethylene terephthalate)/poly(hydroxyl ether of bisphenol A) (phenoxy) blend were studied with time‐resolved light scattering, optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS). During annealing at 280 °C, liquid–liquid phase separation via spinodal decomposition proceeded in the melt‐extruded specimen. After the formation of a domain structure, the blend slowly underwent phase homogenization by the interchange reactions between the two polymers. Specimens annealed for various times (ts) at 280 °C were subjected to a temperature drop and the effects of liquid‐phase changes on crystallization were then investigated. The shifts in the position of the cold‐crystallization peaks indicated that the crystallization rate is associated with the composition change of the separated phases as well as the change of the sequence distribution in polymer chains during annealing. The morphological parameters at the lamellar level were determined by a correlation function analysis on the SAXS data. The crystal thickness (lc) increased with ts, whereas the amorphous layer thickness (la) showed little dependence on ts. Observation of a constant la value revealed that a large number of noncrystallizable species formed by the interchange reactions between the two polymers were excluded from the lamellar stacks and resided in the interfibrillar regions, interspherulitic regions, or both. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The action of thermo-mechanical degradation induced by mechanical recycling of poly(ethylene terephthalate) was simulated by successive injection moulding cycles. Degradation reactions provoked chain scissions and a reduction in molar mass mainly driven by the reduction of diethyleneglycol to ethylene glycol units in the flexible domain of the PET backbone, and the formation of -OH terminated species with shorter chain length. The consequent microstructural changes were quantified taking into account a three-fraction model involving crystalline, mobile amorphous (MAF) and rigid amorphous fractions (RAF). A remarkable increase of RAF, to a detriment of MAF was observed, while the percentage of crystalline fraction remained nearly constant. A deeper analysis of the melting behaviour, the segmental dynamics around the glass-rubber relaxation, and the macroscopic mechanical performance, showed the role of each fraction leading to a loss of thermal, viscoelastic and mechanical features, particularly remarkable after the first processing cycle. 相似文献

Poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) was blended with nanoscale fully vulcanized acrylic rubber (FVAR) powders in a twin extruder, and the FVAR powders were dispersed well in PBT from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) investigation. The isothermal crystallization kinetics of PBT/FVAR blends were investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and simulated by Avrami model. Equilibrium melting temperature was estimated by the nonlinear Hoffman-Weeks relation. The active energy (ΔE) and nucleation parameters (Kg) increased with the addition of FVAR, suggesting that FVAR particles hindered the crystallization; however more content FVAR had a lower ΔE and Kg because FVAR powders acted as heterogeneous nuclei in the nucleation of crystallization and facilitated the crystallization of PBT. The crystallization ability followed the order: PBT > PBT/FVAR6 > PBT/FVAR3 > PBT/FVAR1 when undercooling was considered. 相似文献

Changes in poly(ethylene terephthalate) subjected to electron beam irradiation at doses up to 15 MGy and dose rate of 1.65 MGy/h, were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, molecular weight measurement, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Irradiated samples showed a decrease of molecular weight with a minimum at 5 MGy, which is attributed to chain scission of the macromolecules and then an increase at further doses due to branching and some degradation effect. Irradiation in air is not an important factor because the high dose rate of irradiation inhibits oxygen diffusion in the samples. 相似文献
