Carbon nanotube reinforced biobased poly(urethane urea) covalent adaptable network composite

A solvent-free approach was developed to incorporate carbon nanotube (CNT) into castor oil derived poly(urethane urea) (PPU) covalent adaptable network (CAN) based on dynamic piperidine-urea bonds to fabricate CNT reinforced PPU composites. The approach includes two steps i.e., pre-polymerization of castor with isophorone diisocyanate in flask and subsequent chain-extension with 1,3-bis(4-piperidinyl)propane (PIP) in the presence of CNT in an internal mixer. The effect on CNT content of the morphology, mechanical property, stress relaxation, and reprocessability of the PPU/CNT composites was investigated in detail. The results demonstrated that CNT dispersed well in the PPU networks due to the applied strong shear force which facilitated the dispersion of CNT in the PPU matrix before cross-linking. The well-dispersed CNT reinforced the mechanical properties of PPU significantly and the Young's modulus (E) of the composites were enhanced significantly when the content of CNT was ≥6 wt% due to the formation of CNT network in the PPU matrix. When the content of CNT was 10 wt%, the E of PPU-10%CNT was 927.59 ± 149.05 MPa, which was improved by ~60% compared to PPU. The reprocessability of the PPU network was remained although the stress relaxation rate was reduced with incorporation and increasing content of CNT. In addition, the PPU/CNT composites could be degraded chemically to recycle CNT through reaction of the dynamic piperidine-urea bonds with additional PIP.

Dipolar relaxation mechanisms in the vitreous state, in the glass transition region and in the mesophase, of a side chain polysiloxane liquid crystal

The dipolar relaxation mechanisms in a side chain liquid crystalline polysiloxane have been studied by Thermally Stimulated Discharge Currents (t.s.d.c.) and by Dielectric Relaxation Spectroscopy (d.r.s.). The study was carried out in a wide temperature range covering the vitreous phase, the glass transition region and the liquid crystalline phase. Different discharges were observed in the t.s.d.c. spectrum of this polymer which were attributed, in the order of increasing temperature, to local non-cooperative motions probably involving internal rotations in the spacer and in the alkyl group of the mesogenic moiety, to the Brownian motions of the main chain associated with the glass transition and to motions involving reorientations of the components of the dipole moment of the mesogenic side group in the liquid crystalline phase. The dielectric relaxation spectrum, on the other hand, is dominated by two relaxation processes both of which are above the measured glass transition temperature and shows also a much broader and less intense relaxation below the glass transition temperature which is attributable to local motions along the side groups. It is emphasized that the comparison between the d.r.s. and the t.s.d.c. results is not straightforward and that more research work is needed in order to enable a clear attribution of the relaxation processes at the molecular level, and an unambiguous interpretation of the results obtained by the two techniques.

STUDY ON AB-CROSSLINKED POLYMERS Ⅰ. THE SYNTHESIS AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF AB-CROSSLINKED POLYMERS BASED. ON PU/PS

The AB-crosslinked polymers (i.e. ABCP) with polystyrene as chain A and vinyl group blocked prepolymers of polyurethanes (PU) as chain B were synthesized and studied. The results of dynamic mechanical spectrometry (DMS) show that the compatibility between the components A and B can be improved greatly through chemical crosslinking during the formation of ABCPs. This effect is especially pronounced when short chain prepolymers is chosen as one of the components. It is apparent that the degree of crosslinking between the two components plays a major role in determining their compatibility. Copolymerizafion of styrene with maleic anhydride in chain A can improve the compatibility and broaden the damping temperature range. Mechanical properties of the sythesized ABCPs were also studied.     

Dynamic mechanical properties of random ethylene/1-octene copolymers prepared by rapid cooling

The dynamic mechanical properties of a well-characterized series of homogeneous ethylene/1-octene copolymers with different random hexyl branch contents and prepared using different cooling conditions have been examined using dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). It was confirmed that the relaxation behavior of copolymers varied continuously with the branch content: the magnitude of the β relaxation increased with branch content while the intensity of the α relaxation decreased with the branch content; both relaxation temperatures decreasing with increasing branch level in the copolymers. Copolymers prepared at different cooling conditions were further examined and strikingly continuous changes were found for the first time. The β relaxation was shown to correlate to the amorphous region, while the α₁ and α₂ relaxations can be clearly differentiated for some samples and are assumed to be associated with the interlamellar slip and intra-crystalline c-shear processes respectively. With increasing cooling rate, the relative intensity of α₁ relaxation to α₂ relaxation was found to decrease while the β relaxation did not change. The most informative data is determined from deconvolution of tan δ spectra. In higher crystallinity polymers the α₁ and α₂ relaxations are closely related in activation energy but have different temperature locations. For lower crystallinity systems, where the α₁ relaxation cannot be observed, the α₂ and β relaxations are closely linked, with activation energies approaching one another. These results show very clearly that, although the observed relaxation data can be separated through deconvolution into three separate peaks, the behaviors are closely linked. Presumably, this a clear reflection of the role of tie molecules in binding phases together and in influencing dynamic mechanical behavior. A clear change of behavior has also been observed in the β relaxation when a distinct amorphous phase exists outside of the spherulites, confirming the general belief that the crystalline phase influences the amorphous phase when it is confined within a spherulite. Again, this behavior is reflecting the role of tie molecules in binding together the nanocomposite structure of a spherulite.

Dipolar motions and phase transitions in a side‐chain polysiloxane liquid crystal. A study by thermally stimulated depolarization currents

The relaxation mechanisms present in a side‐chain liquid crystalline polymer have been studied by Thermally Stimulated Depolarization Currents (t.s.d.c.), in a wide temperature range covering the glassy state, the glass transition region, and the liquid crystalline phase. The thermal sampling procedure was used to decompose the complex relaxations into its narrowly distributed components. Three relaxation mechanisms were observed in this polymer: a relaxation below the glass transition temperature that is broad and extends from −150°C up to −110°C, the glass transition relaxation whose maximum intensity appears at ∼20°C, and a relaxation above the glass transition temperature, in the liquid crystalline phase. The attribution of these relaxations at the molecular level is discussed. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 37: 227–235, 1999

Dynamic relaxation behavior of copolymers of n-butyl methacrylate with n-butyl acrylate and of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate with ethyl acrylate,n-butyl acrylate,and dodecyl methacrylate

The effect of the α-methyl group on the mobility of the main and side chains of methacrylateacrylate copolymers has been investigated. Poly(ethyl acrylate) shows a small secondary loss maximum (attributed to the rotation of ? COOR side chains) at 145 K, while in the case of poly(n-butyl acrylate) this relaxation process is smeared out or possibly absent. On the contrary, poly(n-butyl methacrylate) and poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) exhibit secondary relaxations at about 278 and 301 K, respectively. From the dynamic mechanical response spectra of methacrylate-acrylate copolymers one can see that the removal of the α-methyl group causes a qualitative change in the molecular mechanism of the secondary relaxation, presumably as a consequence of the different participation of the main chains. The existing data, however, are insufficient to quantify these differences. The low-temperature relaxation attributed to internal motion within the side groups is not distinctly affected by the presence of α-methyl groups. If both components of the copolymer display the low-temperature relaxation (above 77 K), the loss maxima preserve their identity to a large extent. The effect of copolymer composition on the main (glass) transition temperature has been described by means of a one-parameter equation.

STUDY ON CASTOR OIL POLYURETHANE/POLY (METHYL METHACRYLATE) AB CROSSLINKED POLYMERS

Castor oil polyurethane/poly(methyl methacrylate) AB crosslinked polymers (ABCP) were synthesized by free radical copolymerization of MMA and vinyl-terminated castor oil polyurethane which was obtained from isocyanate-terminated castor oil polyurethane and hydroxyethyl methacrylate The mechanical properties, transition and relaxation, as well as compatibility and morphology of the ABCP were investigated by changing the component. The results show that the ABCP is a semicompatible system and the compatibility of the two components decreases with increasing content of the hard segment. The mechanical and damping properties of the ABCP are obviously superior to that of their homopolymers. The damping value is mainly controlled by cross[ink density of the ABCP but the T-g value by component.     

Dynamic electrical thermal analysis on zinc oxide/epoxy resin nanodielectrics

The dielectric response of ZnO/epoxy resin nanocomposites was studied by means of dynamic electrical thermal analysis in the frequency range of 10^?1 to 10⁷ Hz, and over the temperature range of 30–160 °C, varying the content of the reinforcing phase. Scanning electron microscopy pictures were used for assessing the composites morphology and for examining the particles’ dispersion. The thermal properties of nanocomposites were examined by differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range of 0–170 °C. Dielectric data were analyzed via dielectric permittivity and electric modulus formalisms. Recorded relaxation phenomena include contributions from both the polymeric matrix and the presence of the reinforcing phase. Processes related to the polymer matrix are attributed to the glass to rubber transition (α-relaxation) of the epoxy resin and local motions of polar side groups of the main polymer chain (β-relaxation). Finally, the slower process appearing at low frequencies and high temperatures, originates from interfacial phenomena due to the accumulation of unbounded charges at the system’s interface.     

Mechanical relaxations in polypropylene: A new experimental and theoretical approach

Accurate dynamic mechanical measurements have been performed on semicrystalline isotactic polypropylene over wide ranges of temperature and frequency. A mechanical model has been used to analyze experimental results in order to separate the behavior of amorphous and crystalline phases. The two main α and β relaxation processes have been analyzed. The β relaxation, related to the glass-rubber transition of the amorphous fraction, has been studied with the help of a physical model. The behavior is similar to that of a wholly amorphous polymer, with two characteristics: a high rubbery plateau, indicating a crosslinking effect by the crystalline phase, and a strong effect of interfaces in shear strain. Experimental data suggest the α relaxation originates within the crystalline phase and that it can be attributed to diffusion of defects. The amorphous phase plays an important role in this process, because it has to adapt itself by cooperative movements to respect the compatibility of deformations of the two phases. The formalism developed here rationalizes experimental results obtained with samples having different thermal histories.     

PP/PMMA/PP-g-MAH共混物的结晶和相形态研究

采用偏光显微镜和相差显微镜详细研究PP/PMMA不相容聚合物共混物体系和PP/PMMA/PP-g-PMMA增容共混体系的结晶和相形态.偏光显微照片的研究结果表明,增容剂PP-g-MAH中PP结晶需要克服更多的能垒,导致PP结晶形态变得不完善,球晶尺寸变小.比较PP/PMMA和PP/PMMA/PP-g-MAH的相差显微照片可以看出,由于增容剂的加入,PP与PMMA相之间的界面变得模糊,两相的相容性变好.随着PP-g-MAH中MAH接枝率的增加,PMMA分散相的尺寸减小且变得均匀;当增容剂的接枝率为2.41%,添加的质量分数为4.71%,PP/PMMA共混体系中PMMA分散相的相?尺寸可达最小.PP-g-MAH作为反应型增容剂,一方面与PP在界面区域产生共晶;另一方面,MAH极性基团与PMMA的极性基团间产生的强的化学键合作用,使得界面区域的PP-g-MAH分子采取有利于降低构象熵的构象来起到增容作用.PP/PMMA共混物在130℃等温结晶的结果显示,PMMA相对PP的结晶形态的影响较小,PP结晶呈现典型的均相成核特征.PP/PMMA共混体系中加入PP-g-MAH,PP结晶尺寸减少.与非等温结晶相比,等温结晶的PP/PMMA共混物中PMMA相区尺寸明显偏大.
