The γ-radiation-induced crosslinking of polystyrene was studied at 30–100°C in vacuo with a dose rate of 6.35 × 105 rad/hr. The amount of hydrogen formation increased with increasing irradiation time, and the rate of the formation decreased with the time. The results were well described by the zero-order formation kinetics with respect to the hydrogen concentration combined with the first-order disappearance. The apparent rate constant for the formation of hydrogen increased somewhat with rising irradiation temperature, and the one for the disappearance was little affected by the temperature. The gel fraction increased with the time by the irradiation beyond the critical time for incipient gel formation, and the rate of gel formation decreased with the time. The gel formation was retarded by rising irradiation temperature, and only a little gel fraction was observed at 100°C. The G values for the crosslinking and main-chain scission were obtained from the gel data by using the Charlesby–Pinner equation. On the basis of these results, the mechanism of the γ-radiation-induced crosslinking of polystyrene was discussed. 相似文献

The radiation-induced emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization of tetrafluoroethylene was carried out at an initial pressure of 2–25 kg/cm2, temperature of 30–110°C, and under a dose rate of 0.57 × 104?3.0 × 104 rad/hr. The rate of polymerization was shown to be proportional to 1.0 and 1.3 powers of the dose rate and initial pressure, respectively, and is maximal at about 70°C. The molecular weight of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) lies in the range of 105?106, increases with reaction time in the early stage of polymerization, and is maximal at 70°C but is almost independent of the dose rate. An interesting discovery is that PTFE, a hydrophobic polymer, forms as a stable latex in the absence of emulsifier. When PTFE latex coagulates during polymerization under certain conditions, the polymerization rate decreases, probably because polymerization proceeds mainly on the polymer particle surface. The observed rate acceleration and successive increase in polymer molecular weight may be due to slow termination of propagating radicals in the rigid PTFE particles. 相似文献

The effects of acetylene on the γ-radiation-induced polymerization of ethylene were studied from the viewpoint of kinetics. The experiments were carried out under a pressure of 150–400 kg/cm2; the temperature was 30°C; the dose rates were 2.7 × 104 and 1.1 × 105 rad/hr; the acetylene content was 0–2.21%. Both the polymer yield and the molecular weight increased acceleratively with the reaction pressure in the polymerization containing 0.18% acetylene. The yield increased almost proportionally with the dose rate, and the molecular weight was found to be almost independent of the dose rate in the polymerization containing 2.21% acetylene. The polymerization rate and the molecular weight increased with reaction time, but the increment decreased with increasing acetylene content. The degree of increase in the molecular weight also decreased with increasing time. These results were analyzed by using a graphical evaluation method for kinetics, and the effects of acetylene on each elementary step in the polymerization discussed. 相似文献

In this second paper of the series we present additional evidence that the γ-radiation-induced polymerization of very pure, ultradry styrene exhibits kinetics that can best be explained as due to one or more ionic processes, depending on the dryness of the sample. We have shown the effect of the various steps in the drying procedure on the observed kinetics, and we have described a preparative procedure which yields good reproducibility among independently prepared samples. Under these conditions, the rate of polymerization is proportional to the 0.70 power of the dose rate at 0°C.; there appears to be no wall effect; and the temperature coefficient for the process appears to be a complicated function, most probably a small negative value over the range of temperature (0–50°C.) and dose rates (~103–105 rad/hr.) covered in this study. The maximum G value for disappearance of monomer which we have observed is of the order of 6 × 105 molecules of monomer/100 e.v. at 0°C. and a dose rate of 2 × 103 rad/hr. 相似文献

Samples of two high-density polyethylenes having different crystallinity levels were gamma irradiated under vacuum at doses ranging from 20 to 300 kGy. Subsequently, the vials containing the irradiated samples were exposed to different post-irradiation treatments. Parts of the specimens were annealed while still under vacuum. The annealing time was 4 h and the annealing temperatures 110 °C or 150 °C. Others were exposed directly to air opening the vials without any thermal treatment. It was verified that in all cases the dosage to produce an incipient gel increases with the crystallinity of the initial sample. The amount of gel produced after exposing specimens of the same polymer to a given dose increases with the annealing temperature. The largest increment in the amount of gel produced at the completion of the post-irradiation treatment was found on the samples with the highest initial crystallinity level.Evidence of oxidation was found in all irradiated samples. The extent of oxidation depends on the initial crystallinity of the sample, the irradiation dose and the type of post-irradiation treatment. The heat of fusion measured in the annealed samples decreases with the gel content while the fusion temperature was slightly affected. Ductile or brittle behaviors were observed after testing specimens under tensile stress. The yield stress increases proportionally to the crystallinity level that, in turn, depends on the total dosage applied to the samples. The extensibility of ductile samples is determined by the amount of gel produced regardless of the degree of initial crystallinity and the type of annealing process applied to each sample. 相似文献

The kinetics of the γ-radiation-induced polymerization of styrene was studied at radiation intensities of 8 × 104, 2.4 × 105, 3.1 × 105, and 8.3 × 105 rad/hr over a temperature range of ?10°C to 30°C. The water content of the irradiated samples varied from 1.0 × 10?3 to 7.5 × 10?3 mole/l. The power dependence of the rate of polymerization on the dose rate at ?10°C varied from 0.53 to 0.71 as the water content of the sample varied from 7.5 × 10?3 to 1.0 × 10?3 mole/l. A value of 3.1 kcal/mole was determined for the overall activation energy. Molecular weight distribution studies by gel-permeation chromatography indicated the presence of two distinct peaks. The contribution of each peak was dependent on specific experimental parameters. Kinetic data and molecular weight distribution data indicate the coexistence of two propagating species. Analysis of the data strongly suggests that a free-radical mechanism and a cationic mechanism are involved. 相似文献

The molecular-topological structure of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has been studied in the range of ?100 to +450°C by thermomechanical spectrometry. Revealed in this temperature range is a fourblock topological structure composed of one amorphous (T g = 16°C) and three crystalline (low-melting (T m = 315°C), intermediate (T m 1 = 355°C), and high-melting (T m 2 = 388°C)) polymorphs. At a dose of 1 kGy, the long-range orientation of chains in the intermediate and high-melting crystalline blocks of PTFE is replaced by short-range orientation of the cluster association structure. At doses of 100?C500 kGy, the latter structure transitions to the amorphous state and the irradiated samples acquire a semicrystalline structure of the two-block type. The molecular-mass distribution function of interjunction chains of the pseudo-network of the amorphous block is bimodal in character and its maxima are noticeable shifted toward lower masses with an increase in the radiation dose. As the dose increases, the crystallinity decreases and the molecular mobility of amorphized chains is enhanced. As a result, both the glass transition and the molecular flow onset temperatures of the polymer are reduced. 相似文献

The surface structure of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) upon α‐particle irradiation has been investigated at doses in the range of 1 × 107 to 1 × 1011 Rad and compared with the surface structure of the unirradiated polymer. Both neat and 25% fiberglass content PTFE were studied. The samples, maintained at nominal room temperature, were irradiated in vacuum by 5.5 MeV 4He2+ ions generated in a tandem accelerator beam line. Static time‐of‐flight SIMS (ToF‐SIMS) was employed to probe chemical changes at the surface as a function of the irradiation level. In general, the data are indicative of increased cross‐linking at α‐doses less than 1 × 109 Rad, followed by increased fragmentation and unsaturation at α‐doses greater than 1 × 109 Rad. Throughout the irradiation regime, scission is a constant factor promoting cross‐linking, branching, and unsaturation. However, at α‐doses greater than 1 × 1010 Rad, extreme structural degradation of the polymer becomes evident and is accompanied by conversion to oxygen‐functionalized and aliphatic compounds. Thus, for PTFE in an α‐particle field, an upper exposure limit of ~1010 Rad is essential for nominal retention of molecular structure. Finally, a quantitative relationship between α‐dose and characteristic fragment ion intensity is developed. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The thermal expansion coefficient of gamma-irradiated Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has been measured in the temperature range 80–340 K by using a three-terminal capacitance technique. The samples are irradiated in air at room temperature with gamma rays from a Co60 source at a dose rate of 0.26 Mrad/h. The change in crystallinity is measured by an x-ray technique. The expansion coefficient is found to increase with radiation dose below 140 K owing to the predominant effect of degradation. Above 140 K, the expansion coefficient is found to decrease with radiation dose because of the enhanced crystallinity. The temperatures of the two first-order phase transitions are also found to shift to lower temperatures owing to degradation of PTFE. 相似文献

Temperature effects on γ-initiated polymerization of styrene. III. Conversion in the range 150–200°C
M. Taherzadeh J. W. Hodgins 《Journal of polymer science. Part A, Polymer chemistry》1975,13(2):425-435
Experimental data are presented for the polymerization of commercial styrene in a γ-radiation flux of 20–51 rad/sec in the temperature range of 150–200°C. At radiation intensities above 20 rad/second, conversion rate is independent of dose rate over the range. Above 165°C, radiation does not enhance the conversion rate but does produce more rapid elimination of residual monomer. Molecular weights of polymer product in this temperature range are too low to be of commercial interest. An optimal temperature range of 110–120°C is suggested for the process. 相似文献

The graft copolymerizations onto the preirradiated polypropylene fibers of gaseous vinyl chloride and also of gaseous vinylidene chloride were carried out. The fibers were preirradiated with γ-rays from a 60Co source at ?78°C. in air to a total dose of 8 X 105 rad, and were thus presumed to contain peroxide radicals which were active in grafting at ordinary temperature. The volume decrease of monomers at constant pressures due to the sorption and the grafting reaction was followed automatically at temperatures ranging from ?10 to 80°C. The net monomer consumption through the grafting process was estimated by subtracting the volume change due to the sorption from the total volume change of monomers. In general, the extent of grafting was lower at the higher grafting temperature and the decrease of the grafting activity of fibers was also accelerated. The grafting was found to increase almost linearly with the logarithm of the reaction time and the logarithm of the radiation of the radiation dose to the fibers. The extent of grafting was also proportional to the vapor pressure of monomer at a given reaction temperature and was supposed to be controlled by the amount of the monomer adsorbed. Raising the irradiation temperature higher than 0°C. brought about a marked decrease in the activity of preirradiated polypropylene. The grafting activity was successfully retained by the polymer for at least a fortnight at ?78°C. 相似文献

γ Radiolysis of polyethylene grafted with styrene of 0–76 wt % was carried out at 30–100°C in vacuo with a dose rate of 6.35 × 105 rad/hr. The formation of hydrogen and trans-vinylene unsaturation decreased as the content of styrene unit in polymer increased and the rate of formation was described by zero-order formation kinetics with respect to each concentration combined with first-order disappearance. The gel fraction changed with the content of styrene unit according to irradiation time and temperature. The gel data were evaluated by using the Charlesby–Pinner equation. Kinetic analysis showed that in γ radiolysis of polyethylene grafted with styrene the formation of hydrogen is somewhat retarded, the crosslinking and main chain scission are accelerated, and the disappearance of hydrogen and formation and disappearance of trans-vinylene unsaturation are almost entirely unaffected. On the basis of these results the reactions induced by γ rays in graft polymer were discussed in connection with the reaction mechanisms of the γ radiolyses of polyethylene and polystyrene. 相似文献

Two types of liquid-core optical waveguide (OWG) dosimeters are commercially available for dosimetry in the irradiation of foods and other products. “Opti-chromic” type FWT-70-40M has a useful range of about 10-104 Gy and type FWT-70–83M about 102−104 Gy. 5 Within the limits of random uncertainty of the reading of the absorbed dose (±5%, 1σ), the response to γ-radiation is independent of dose rate over the range 10-1−104 Gy/h, when measured at the peak of the spectrum [absorption band maximum (600 nm wavelength)]. The response curve is linear with dose up to ≈103 Gy, but is non-linear at higher doses, where the readings are made away from the absorption peak (656nm). Both dosimeter types when measured at 600 nm are temperature dependent over the temperatures ranges of -40 to 60°C during irradiation. The dosimeters cannot be used when exposed to temperatures > 60°C because of bubble formation and loss of light propagation. At doses < 103 Gy (at600 nm), the dosimeters are stable (in terms of dose readings) for several months following irradiation, but at doses ≈ 104 kGy (at 656 nm), they show a gradual absorbance increase (error in dose interpretation), over post-irradiation storage periods longer than 1 month. A special, sensitive OWG dosimeter (50-cm coil), designed for doses down to 10-1 Gy, shows a linear response up to at least 15 Gy, a temperature dependence of response only at temperatures below ≈ 20°C, and no dose-rate dependence. 相似文献

Measurements of the thermal expansion coefficients (TECs) of cellulose crystals in the lateral direction are reported. Oriented films of highly crystalline cellulose Iβ and IIII were prepared and then investigated with X‐ray diffraction at specific temperatures from room temperature to 250 °C during the heating process. Cellulose Iβ underwent a transition into the high‐temperature phase with the temperature increasing above 220–230 °C; cellulose IIII was transformed into cellulose Iβ when the sample was heated above 200 °C. Therefore, the TECs of Iβ and IIII below 200 °C were measured. For cellulose Iβ, the TEC of the a axis increased linearly from room temperature at αa = 4.3 × 10?5 °C?1 to 200 °C at αa = 17.0 × 10?5 °C?1, but the TEC of the b axis was constant at αb = 0.5 × 10?5 °C?1. Like cellulose Iβ, cellulose IIII also showed an anisotropic thermal expansion in the lateral direction. The TECs of the a and b axes were αa = 7.6 × 10?5 °C?1 and αb = 0.8 × 10?5 °C?1. The anisotropic thermal expansion behaviors in the lateral direction for Iβ and IIII were closely related to the intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding systems. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermally stimulated currents (TSC) of γ-irradiated poly(methyl methacrylate) thermoelectrets have been investigated in the high-temperature range. The two main peaks of the TSC spectrum, appearing, respectively, at about 100 (α) and 120°C (ρ), show marked differences in stability under irradiation: while the α peak is little affected by doses up to 107 rad, the ρ peak vanishes following doses of 105 to 106 rad. On the other hand, a study of the rate of decrease of the ρ peak as a function of irradiation conditions reveals the important role of the surrounding atmosphere and the existence of a flux effect, probably related to irradiation-accelerated diffusion of gas into the polymer. All these facts confirm the respective attributions of α and ρ peaks to a dipolar volume polarization and to an ionic space charge polarization, showing that the TSC study of irradiated thermoelectrets can be a useful method for identification of polarization processes in polymers. 相似文献

The effects of oxygen on the γ-radiation-induced polymerization of ethylene were studied at a temperature of 30°C.; the pressure was 400 kg./cm.2, the dose rate was 1.9 × 105 rad/hr.; and oxygen content was from 1–2000 ppm. The main product was solid polymer, and no liquid product was found. The gaseous products were hydrogen, acetylene, higher hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide, aldehydes, and acids. Several kinds of carbonyls similar to those formed in γ-ray oxidized polyethylene were observed in the polymer. The polymer yield and the degree of polymerization decreased markedly with increasing oxygen content, while the amount of carbonyls in the polymer increased. The number of moles of polymer chain and the amounts of hydrogen and acetylene were found to be almost independent of the oxygen content. The polymerization of pure ethylene was not affected by carbon dioxide and formic acid. On addition of acetaldehyde, the polymer yield and the degree of polymerization decreased markedly, while the number of moles of polymer chain increased. In the polymerization of ethylene containing oxygen, both the rate of oxygen consumption and the carbonyl content of the polymer increased, while the inhibition period decreased by the addition of acetaldehyde. It was found that the degree of polymerization after the inhibition period is almost independent of the reaction time in the presence of acetaldehyde, while it increases with the time in the absence of acetaldehyde. 相似文献

The polymerizability of styrene derivatives having alkylamino substituents, such as 1-(2-isopropylaminoethyl)-4-vinylbenzene (IPVB), 1-(2-diethylaminoethyl)-4-vinylbenzene (DEVB) and 1-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-4-vinylbenzene (DMVB), was investigated in the range −96 to +25° with gamma-rays from a 60Co source. The glass transition temperatures were found to be −94° for IPVB, −102° for DEVB and −114° for DMVB. The polymer yield of these monomers prepared by 4 × 106 rad irradiation at −55° was 39.9, 10.4 and 4.9% respectively. On the other hand, the polymer yield of IPVB as a function of irradiation temperature (irradiation dose: 4 × 106 rad) was 2.4% at −96°, 27.4% at −78°, 39.9% at −55°, 35.7% at −37°, 36.4% at −24°, 54.8% at 0° and 71.3% at +25°. Such a trend of temperature-dependent polymer yield also decreased markedly in the order IPVB, DEVB and DMVB. The polymers prepared were soft and gummy, although polymers prepared by irradiating at the doses of 1 × 107 or above were hard and transparent. 相似文献

Bulk polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether was studied at 25°C in a wide dose rate range, 8.2-277 rad/sec by γ rays and 8.8 × 103-2.2 × 105 rad/sec by electron beams. At low dose rate, 8.2-277 rad/sec, only the radical polymerization took place. At high dose rate exceeding 8.8 × 103 rad/sec, cationic polymerization was found to occur in addition to the radical polymerization. DP n of the product at high dose rate was 9-10. Further drying of the monomer increased Rp, and molecular weight of the product formed by cationic mechanism also increased. 相似文献

The coefficient of thermal expansion of γ-irradiated polyethylene has been measured from 10 to 340 K by using the three-terminal capacitance technique. The samples are irradiated to 500 Mrad in steps of 100 Mrad in air at room temperature with γ-rays from a Co60 source at a dose rate of 0.3 Mrad/h. The crystallinity of the sample is measured by x-ray diffraction. The crystallinity is found to decrease with radiation dose. The thermal expansion coefficient is found to be constant with radiation doses from 10 to 110 K and decreases with doses from 110 to 340 K. © Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Y2O3:Bi3+ phosphor thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition in the presence of oxygen (O2) gas. The microstructure and photoluminescence (PL) of these films were found to be highly dependent on the substrate temperature. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the Y2O3:Bi3+ films transformed from amorphous to cubic and monoclinic phases when the substrate temperature was increased up to 600 °C. At the higher substrate temperature of 600 °C, the cubic phase became dominant. The crystallinity of the thin films, therefore, increased with increasing substrate temperatures. Surface morphology results obtained by atomic force microscopy showed a decrease in the surface roughness with an increase in substrate temperature. The increase in the PL intensities was attributed to the crystallinity improvement and surface roughness decrease. The main PL emission peak position of the thin films prepared at substrate temperatures of 450 °C and 600 °C showed a shift to shorter wavelengths of 460 and 480 nm respectively, if compared to the main PL peak position of the powder at 495 nm. The shift was attributed to a different Bi3+ ion environment in the monoclinic and cubic phases. 相似文献
