超快扫描量热技术表征高分子结晶动力学

高分子结晶行为是高分子材料加工过程研究的热点,因为高分子组分和加工工艺控制着高分子结晶及其产物性能。差示扫描量热仪(DSC)是研究高分子结晶动力学常规手段。但是,普通DSC所能达到的最快降温速率一般无法抑制较快的样品结晶,结晶行为将在等温结晶动力学测试之前发生,因此可进行等温结晶的研究温度范围局限于较低结晶过冷度的高温区域。近年来,具有超快速升降温扫描速率和精准控温的快速扫描芯片量热仪(FSC,其商业化版本Flash DSC 1)得到了广泛应用。FSC可以抑制高分子样品在升降温过程中的结晶成核,避免对之后的结晶动力学测试产生影响。因此FSC技术将高分子结晶动力学的研究温度区间延伸至具有较大过冷度的低温区,加深了我们对高分子结晶成核机理以及高分子工业加工过程的理解。本文首先介绍了由初级成核方程描述的高分子结晶动力学原理,初级成核自由能位垒(?G~*)和扩散活化能位垒(?U)分别控制了高低温区的结晶动力学。我们还总结了FSC技术的发展,包括氮化硅薄膜芯片技术、快速扫描量热仪、商业化Flash DSC 1在不同高分子结晶熔融行为研究中的应用。然后介绍表征高分子等温结晶动力学的方法,其中包括样品制备、质量估算、消除热历史、临界扫描速率的确定等,并举例介绍FSC在高分子结晶动力学研究中的应用,涵盖高分子总结晶动力学、结晶成核动力学、高分子焓松弛对结晶成核的影响、FSC联用技术等方面。应用举例中对应形貌和结晶信息,分析了通过FSC测试得到的结晶成核动力学特点。另外通过比较不同结构特点的高分子,总结了我们对结晶动力学行为的基本理解。总之,FSC技术是一种能够提供相转变动力学和热力学信息的高效工具,特别是应用于分析只能在快速扫描中得到的样品结构变化信息。同时我们希望本文能够帮助读者考虑超快扫描量热技术在其他材料研究上的应用,包括合金、药物、生物大分子等。     

快速扫描量热法研究聚对苯二甲酸-1,4-环己烷二甲醇酯的结晶和熔融行为

采用快速扫描量热法(FSC)结合传统的差示扫描量热仪(DSC)考察了聚对苯二甲酸-1,4-环己烷二甲醇酯(PCT)聚酯在接近玻璃化转变(T_g)和熔融温度(T_m)范围(100~270 ℃)的结晶和熔融行为。 较大过冷度时PCT聚酯结晶较快,FSC有效地抑制降温过程结晶的发生,而较低过冷度下传统DSC可以避免样品降解对实验结果的影响,二者的结合能很好地对PCT聚酯结晶动力学进行测量,实验结果表明在175 ℃时结晶速率最快。 并且利用Flash DSC对等温结晶温度下形成的片晶熔点进行加热速率的相关测量,在熔融动力学建模的基础上进行校准,以确定零加热速率下片晶的熔点。 Hoffman-Weeks方程中T_m与结晶温度(T_c)的线性关系与T_c=T_m的交点给出了PCT晶体的平衡熔融温度$T_m^o$为315 ℃。     

含氟聚合物共混对聚醚醚酮结晶行为的影响

通过示差扫描量热仪(DSC)对含氟聚合物与聚醚醚酮(PEEK)共混物的非等温结晶熔融行为和等温结晶熔融行为进行了研究.研究表明:不同的含氟聚合物以及具有不同端基的同种含氟聚合物对PEEK的结晶行为有不同的影响.端基为酰氟(COF)的乙烯-四氟乙烯共聚物(ETFE)能促进PEEK结晶时的成核,加快PEEK的等温结晶速率,而聚四氟乙烯(PTFE)则会减慢PEEK的等温结晶速率.     

四臂聚乳酸/线性聚乳酸共混物的结晶行为及机理研究

CoFe2O4自形成磁性液体场致结构化对磁化的影响

The Langevin paramagnetic theory can’t describe the relation between magnetization of ferrofluids and applied magnetic field. The structuralization of ferrofluids, which is considered the main influence factor of the magnetization, is regarded. The part of magnetization works is deposited when the structure is forming. This action influences the magnetization of ferrofluids directly or indirectly. On the base of the “compressing” model, the Langevin function that usually describes the magnetization of ferrofluid is modified, and a well-fitted curve is obtained. An equation of the relation between the equivalent volume fraction after being “compressed” and the intensity of magnetic field is discovered, which approximately describes the process of magnetization. The relation between the approximate initial susceptibility and the volume fraction can be obtained from modified formula.

Sulfur-directed metal-free and regiospecific methyl C(sp3)–H imidation of thioanisoles

Regiospecific and direct imidation of the methyl C(sp³)–H bond of thioanisoles is realized under mild and metal-free conditions with N-fluorobis(benzenesulfonyl)imide as an oxidant and nitrogen source. Proposed mechanism suggests that thionium ion intermediates and a Pummerer-type reaction are involved. The imidation has advantages such as high step-economy, excellent functionality tolerance, and regiospecificity, giving structurally diverse imidation products.     

Selective syntheses of 2H-1,3-oxazines and 1H-pyrrol-3(2H)-ones via temperature-dependent Rh(II)-carbenoid-mediated 2H-azirine-ring expansion

The Rh(II)-catalyzed reaction of 2-carbonyl-substituted 2H-azirines with ethyl 2-cyano-2-diazoacetate or 2-diazo-3,3,3-trifluoropropionate provides an easy access to 2H-1,3-oxazines and 1H-pyrrol-3(2H)-ones. These compounds can be selectively prepared from the same starting material using temperature as the only varied parameter. The 2-azabuta-1,3-diene intermediate, a common precursor for both heterocyclic products, isomerizes into 2H-1,3-oxazine under kinetic control, while 1H-pyrrol-3(2H)-one is the sole product of the reaction at elevated temperatures. According to DFT-calculations a one-atom oxazine ring contraction involving ring-opening to a 2-azabuta-1,3-diene intermediate, followed by a 1,5- and 1,2-prototropic shift leads to the consecutive formation of imidoylketene and azomethine ylide, which then further undergo cyclization to the pyrrole derivative.
