The tracer diffusion coefficient of unentangled poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO, M=1000 gmol) in a matrix of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA, M=10 000 gmol) has been measured over a temperature range from 125 to 220 degrees C with forced Rayleigh scattering. The dynamic viscosities of blends of two different high molecular weight PEO tracers (M=440 000 and 900 000 gmol) in the same PMMA matrix were also measured at temperatures ranging from 160 to 220 degrees C; failure of time-temperature superposition was observed for these systems. The monomeric friction factors for the PEO tracers were extracted from the diffusion coefficients and the rheological relaxation times using the Rouse model. The friction factors determined by diffusion and rheology were in good agreement, even though the molecular weights of the tracers differed by about three orders of magnitude. The PEO monomeric friction factors were compared with literature data for PEO segmental relaxation times measured directly with NMR. The monomeric friction factors of the PEO tracer in the PMMA matrix were found to be from two to six orders of magnitude greater than anticipated based on direct measurements of segmental dynamics. Additionally, the PEO tracer terminal dynamics are a much stronger function of temperature than the corresponding PEO segmental dynamics. These results indicate that the fastest PEO Rouse mode, inferred from diffusion and rheology, is completely separated from the bond reorientation of PEO detected by NMR. This result is unlike other blend systems in which global and local motions have been compared. 相似文献

Thermal oxidation of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and its blends with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were studied using oxygen uptake measurements. The rates of oxidation and maximum oxygen uptake contents were reduced as the content of PMMA was increased in the blends. The results were indicative of a stabilizing effect by PMMA on the oxidation of PEO. The oxidation reaction at 140°C was stopped at various stages and PMMA was separated from PEO and its molecular weights were measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The decrease in the number-average molecular weight of PMMA was larger as the content of PEO increased in the blends. The visual appearance of the films suggested that phase separation did not occur after thermal oxidation. The activation energy for the rates of oxidation in the blends was slightly increased compared to pure PEO. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Ultradrawn ribbons of solution-cast blends of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) have been prepared by a solid-state coextrusion in a capillary rheometer. An increase of noncrystallizable PMMA in the blends drastically decreased the drawability from a draw ratio of 36 for pure PEO to 5 for a mixture of PEO/PMMA 40/60% by weight. A low crystallinity and depression of melting temperature for PEO were observed with increasing draw. The Flory-Huggins theory for melting temperature depression has been used to derive the binary interaction parameter for these blends. 相似文献

Elastic and quasi elastic neutron scattering investigations, using the small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and neutron spin echo (NSE) techniques, respectively, were performed in order to study the static and dynamic single chain behaviour in a binary blend of low molecular mass deuterated poly(dimethylsiloxane) (d-PDMS) and protonated poly(ethylmethylsiloxane) (p-PEMS) at the critical composition c. Since the single chain observation requires that only a small amount of one of both components is labelled, the d-PDMS/p-PEMS system was modified in such a way that the major part of the protonated PEMS component was replaced by the corresponding deuterated material. Although the de-mixing of the PEMS isotopes occurs far below the de-mixing of the PDMS/PEMS system the resulting chemically binary d-PDMS/d-PEMS/p-PEMS blend with the volume composition 0.5/0.425/0.075 is strictly speaking a ternary system. This complication had to be taken into account, in particular with respect to the correct evaluation of the SANS data.The careful analysis of the SANS curves allows one to determine all three thermodynamic interaction parameters with reasonable reliability and gives evidence that the radii of gyration agree with those, which were determined in corresponding isotopic PDMS and PEMS blends. This is in contrast to the observation on real binary PDMS/PEMS blends at c, where the collective conformational properties exhibit a considerable chain expansion. The NSE data of the ternary system follow completely the predictions of the Rouse model, which describes the dynamics of a dense low molecular mass polymeric system in a single chain approximation. The experimental observations are also in contrast to the results of former NSE measurements on binary PDMS/PEMS blends, where a transition from Rouse behaviour at short times to a much weaker relaxation at longer times became obvious.The results of the static and dynamic single chain behaviour presented here confirm the results of a computer simulation on a low molecular mass binary blend at the critical concentration, where explicitly the pure single chain behaviour was probed and no indications for chain expansion and deviations from the Rouse dynamics were found.Dedicated to Prof. Dr. Erhard W.

Kinetics of the crystallization of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) from the PEO blends with syndiotactic, atactic, or isotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) (s-, a-, and i-PMMA) was investigated. The isothermal spherulitic growth rates were measured with an optical microscope. The influence of the composition of the blends, the tacticity of PMMA, and temperature on the growth rates were studied. Linear growth rates were observed regardless of the tacticity. The growth rates of spherulites are markedly reduced by a-PMMA and s-PMMA. However the growth rates of PEO are hardly influenced by i-PMMA. Such observations are interpreted by assuming that PEO forms miscible blends with a- and s-PMMA in the molten states, whereas it does not from with i-PMMA. 相似文献

We report a neutron-scattering study to characterize the ordering and local dynamics of spherical micelles formed by the triblock copolymer polyethylene oxide (PEO)--polypropylene oxide (PPO)--polyethylene oxide (Pluronic) in aqueous solution. The study focuses on two Pluronic species, F68 and F108, that have the same weight fraction of PEO but that differ in chain length by approximately a factor of 2. At sufficiently high concentration, both species undergo a sequence of phase changes with increasing temperature from dissolved chains to micelles with liquid-like order to a cubic crystal phase and finally back to a micelle liquid phase. A comparison of the phase diagrams constructed from small-angle neutron scattering indicates that crystallization is suppressed for shorter chain micelles due to fluctuation effects. The intermediate scattering function I(Q,t)I(Q,0) determined by neutron spin echo displays a line shape with two distinct relaxations. Comparisons between I(Q,t)I(Q,0) for fully hydrogenated F68 chains in D2O and for F68 with deuterated PEO blocks reveal that the slower relaxation corresponds to Rouse modes of the PPO segments in the concentrated micelle cores. The faster relaxation is identified with longitudinal diffusive modes in the PEO corona characteristic of a polymer brush. 相似文献

The effects of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC CO2) fluids on the morphology and/or conformation of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in PEO/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). According to DSC data for a given blend, the melting enthalpy and, therefore, degree of crystallinity of PEO were increased, whereas the melting temperature of PEO was decreased, with SC CO2 treatment. The enhancement of PEO crystallization with SC CO2 treatment, as demonstrated by DSC data, was supported by WAXD data. According to FTIR quantitative analyses, before SC CO2 treatments, the conformation of PEO was transformed from helix to trans planar zigzag via blending with PMMA. This helix‐to‐trans transformation of PEO increased proportionally with increasing PMMA content, with around 0.7% helix‐to‐trans transformation per 1% PMMA incorporation into the blend. For a given blend upon SC CO2 treatments, the conformation of PEO was transformed from trans to helix. This trans‐to‐helix transformation of PEO decreased with increasing PMMA contents in the blends because of the presence of interactions between the two polymers. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

By using quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) with isotopic labeling we have investigated the component dynamics in a miscible blend of polyethersulfone (PES) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) with 75% content in weight of PES. Due to the large difference in the glass-transition temperatures, T(g)'s, of the two polymers (T(g) (PEO) approximately equal to 220 K, T(g) (PES) approximately equal to 382 K) the dynamic asymmetry in the system dramatically increases when approaching the average T(g) of the blend, . For the fast (PEO) component, this leads to a behavior which hints a crossover from typical glass-forming liquidlike dynamics at high temperatures to confined dynamics close to induced by the freezing of the segmental motions of the slow PES. The features of the confined PEO motion observed by QENS are similar to those of the secondary gamma-relaxation detected for pure (semicrystalline) PEO. A neutron diffraction study of the short-range order of the homopolymers and the blend suggests that this coincidence could be due to similarities in the intermolecular packing of PEO and PES polymers. 相似文献

Infrared spectra in conjunction with calorimetric measurements have been used to follow the crystallization process and microstructural changes of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends. We have given particular attention to compositions containing low PEO concentrations. The crystallization behavior and the resultant microstructures of PEO are strongly perturbed by the presence of PMMA. In addition, we found phase separation and trans sequences of PEO to be present, especially at low PEO concentrations. 相似文献

Results of an investigation on the morphology, structure, isothermal crystallization, thermal behaviour and miscibility of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) based binary blends are reported. In particular poly(vinyl acetate)(PVAc), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) at different tacticity and poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA) were added to PEO. It was found that with the only exception of isotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) (IPMMA), the addition of the above cited components causes a depression in both the spherulite growth rate and the overall kinetic rate constant. The experimental G and Kn were analyzed by means of the latest kinetic theory in order to determine the influence of composition on the process of surface secondary nucleation. The optical microscopy of thin films of the sample revealed that the blends crystallized with volume filling crystals at least up to 50/50 blend composition. The small angle X-ray scattering curves were analyzed using a recently developed methodology. The structural properties of the blends were attributed to the presence of the non crystallizable material in the interlamellar or interfibrillar regions of PEO. From the glass transition temperature it has been deduced that an homogeneous amorphous phase is present for all the blends except for the PEO/IPMMA amorphous system. For the system PEO/atactic poly(methyl methacrylate) (APMMA) the miscibility was also predicted by theoretical approaches. 相似文献

Polymer–silicate nanocomposites based on poly (ethylene oxide), PEO, poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA, and sodium montmorillonite clay were fabricated and characterized to investigate the effect of nanolayered silicates on segmental dynamics of PEO/PMMA blends. X‐ray results indicate the formation of an exfoliated morphology in the nanocomposites. At low silicate contents, an enhancement in segmental dynamics of blend nanocomposites and also PEO, minor component in blend, is observed at temperature region below blend glass transition. This result can be attributed to the improvement of the confinement effect of rigid PMMA matrix on the PEO chains by introducing a low amount of layered silicates. On the other hand, at high silicate contents, an enhancement in segmental dynamics of blend nanocomposites and PEO is observed at temperature region above blend glass transition. This behavior could be interpreted based on the reduction of monomeric friction between two polymer components, which can facilitate segmental motions of blend components in nanocomposite systems. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Pulse field gradient (PFG) NMR measurements have been made to study the diffusion of diethyl ether in blends of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The blends have 10–30 wt % PEO, a composition range within which these materials are amorphous glasses. The diffusion of diethyl ether through the blends is quite rapid, with diffusion constants in the range of 10?7 to 10?8 cm2/s. In PFG NMR experiments, the apparent diffusion constant depends on the timescale over which diffusion is observed. The values decrease to a plateau as the time increases, this being the signature of tortuous diffusion. Tortuous diffusion is usually observed in heterogeneous systems in which there are regions that support fast diffusion and regions that support slow diffusion or act as barriers. In these blends, PEO is known to undergo rapid segmental motion typical of a rubbery state well below the glass transition, whereas the segmental motion of PMMA is slower by many orders of magnitude. Mobile PEO provides a pathway for the diffusion of structurally similar diethyl ether, whereas solid‐like PMMA acts as a barrier. The size of the domains can be estimated either from a lattice model or from equations for tortuous diffusion. Micrometer sizes are indicated that are unexpectedly large, given the size of the polymer chains and the size of the concentration fluctuations, both of which are thought to be in the tens of nanometers. The lattice model and the equations for tortuous diffusion assume a random dispersion of impenetrable or less penetrable objects. This may not be the appropriate morphology for the diffusion pathway. Recently, large sizes have been indicated by PFG NMR experiments, in which a penetrant is thought to diffuse in a curvilinear fashion. In these blends, the pathway for diethyl ether is along the PEO backbone. A plot of the logarithm of the mean‐square displacement versus the logarithm of time has a slope of about 0.6, close to the value of 0.5 for pure curvilinear diffusion. Exponents with values in this range can also be associated with diffusion in a fractal space, which, in this situation, still consists of mobile PEO. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Local segmental relaxation properties of poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) of varying molecular weight are measured by dielectric spectroscopy and analyzed in combination with the equation of state obtained from PVT measurements. Significant variations of glass transition temperature and fragility with molecular weight are observed. In accord with the general properties of glass-forming materials, single molecular weight dependent scaling exponent gamma is sufficient to define the mean segmental relaxation time taualpha and its distribution. This exponent can be connected to the Gruneisen parameter and related thermodynamic quantities, thus demonstrating the interrelationship between dynamics and thermodynamics in PMMA. Changes in the relaxation properties ("dynamic crossover") are observed as a function of both temperature and pressure, with taualpha serving as the control parameter for the crossover. At longer taualpha another change in the dynamics is apparent, associated with a decoupling of the local segmental process from ionic conductivity. 相似文献

The crystallization process of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)and PEO/poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) blends has been characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared(FTIR) spectra in conjunction with Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) measurements. Thecrystallinity of PEO varies consistently with PEO content in PEO/PVAc blends and the PEO/PMMAblends containing 50 wt% or less PMMA. For the PEO/PMMA blends containing 60 wt% ormore PMMA, the crystallinity of PEO decreases more than PEO content but develops with crystal-lization time. These results can be explained in terms of difference between the crystallization tem-perature (T_c) and glass transition temperature (T_g) of the blends as a function of content of amorphouscomponent. 相似文献

The synthesis of well‐defined poly(methyl methacrylate)‐block‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PMMA‐b‐PEO) dibock copolymer through anionic polymerization using monohydroxy telechelic PMMA as macroinitiator is described. Living anionic polymerization of methyl methacrylate was performed using initiators derived from the adduct of diphenylethylene and a suitable alkyllithium, either of which contains a hydroxyl group protected with tert‐butyldimethylsilyl moiety in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at ?78 °C in the presence of LiClO4. The synthesized telechelic PMMAs had good control of molecular weight with narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD). The 1H NMR and MALDI‐TOF MS analysis confirmed quantitative functionalization of chain‐ends. Block copolymerization of ethylene oxide was carried out using the terminal hydroxyl group of PMMA as initiator in the presence of potassium counter ion in THF at 35 °C. The PMMA‐b‐PEO diblock copolymers had moderate control of molecular weight with narrow MWD. The 1H NMR results confirm the absence of trans‐esterification reaction of propagating PEO anions onto the ester pendants of PMMA. The micellation behavior of PMMA‐b‐PEO diblock copolymer was examined in water using 1H NMR and dynamic light scattering. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were prepared by simultaneous network formation. The PEO network was produced by acid-catlayzed self-condensation of α,ω-bis(triethoxysilane)-terminated PEO in the presence of small amounts of water. The PMMA network was formed by free radical polymerization of MAA in the presence of divinylbenzene as crosslinker. The reaction conditions were adjusted to obtain similar crosslinking kinetics for both reactions. An attempt was made to construct a phase diagram of the IPNs by measuring the composition of the IPNs at the moment of the appearance of the phase separation, as indicated by the onset of turbidity. This composition could be determined because the siloxane crosslinks of the PEO network could be hydrolyzed in aqueous NaOH with the formation of linear, soluble PEO chains. The phase diagram was compared with phase diagrams of blends of linear polymers and of semi-IPNs (crosslinked PMMA and linear PEO), obtained under similar conditions, i.e. polymerization of MMA in the presence of varying amounts of PEO. It was observed that the form of the phase diagrams of the linear polymers is similar to that of the IPNs, but is quite different from that of the semi-IPNs. Thus, homogeneous transparent materials containing up to 60% of PEO could be prepared in the blends and the IPNs, but in the semi-IPNs, phase separation occurred with PEO contents as low as 10%. 相似文献

The combination of IR, Raman and NMR spectroscopy was used in the study of the blends of semicrystalline and amorphous polymers with considerably different strength of intermolecular interactions: poly(ϵ-caprolactam)/polystyrene (PCL/PS), poly(ethylene oxide)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PEO/PMMA) and poly(N-methyllaurolactam)/poly(4-vinylphenol) (PNMLL/PVPh). In the vibrational and NMR spectra of the blends composed of non-interacting polymers (PCL/PS) and weakly interacting polymers (PEO/PMMA), no band changes were observed which would indicate changes of the conformational structures. 1H NMR relaxation of the PCL and PS components in the blends is the same as in the respective homopolymers similarly treated. In the blends of weakly interacting polymers (PEO/PMMA), the crystallinity of PEO is influenced by the presence of PMMA and is negligible in the blends with less than 30 wt.-% of PEO. The rotating-frame spin-lattice relaxation time for protons TH1p of PMMA indicates close contact of the PMMA and PEO chains. In the blends PNMLL/PVPh with strong hydrogen-bonding interactions, both components are intimately mixed on a scale of 3–4 nm and significant shifts of some bands both in vibrational and in NMR spectra reveal changes of structure. 相似文献

The compatibility of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PEO-PMMA) blends were examined covering the complete composition range. Up to 20% of PEO content films were transparent and glass transition temperatures were determined by DSC and by refractive index vs. temperature measurements. Only one Tg was obtained for these samples and the relationship between Tg and composition has been evaluated. At higher PEO content crystallization took place and the films were opaque. Melting temperatuures of PEO in blends were determined by DSC. Melting point depression was observed for increasing proportion of PMMA and the binary interaction parameter has been calculated. 相似文献

COMPATIBILITY IN POLYMER BLENDS OF POLY (VINYL ACETATE) AND POLY (METHYL METHACRYLATE)STUDIED BY NMR
Compatibility of poly (vinyl acetate) (PVAc) with poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) mixtures has been studied by using nuclear magnetic relaxation, differential scanning calorimeter and small-angle X-ray scattering techniques. The nuclear magnetic relaxation time T_1's were measured as a function of composition in blends of PMMA and PVAc prepared from chloroform solution. The results show that the system is miscible for casting from chloroform solution. 相似文献

The grafting of the potassium alkoxide derivative of poly(ethylene oxide) on poly(methyl methacrylate) in homogeneous solution in toluene was studied. The alkoxide was prepared by reaction with potassium metal with methanolic potassium methoxide, or with potassium naphthalene. The last was the most suitable for the systematic investigation of the grafting process. Soluble graft polymers were formed, and essentially the initial poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) participated in the production of graft polymer. The composition of the graft polymers and the frequency of grafting of the side chains were determined by NMR. The solubility of the graft polymers in methanol and water increased with increasing PEO contents, while the melting ranges decreased. Fractionation of the crude graft polymers showed that the grafting reaction was random, and graft polymers containing one PEO side chain per about 10–170 MMA units were obtained. 相似文献
