Chains in Critical Fluids and Nanopores

Summary: The conformational behavior of a polymer in a critical binary solvent confined in a porous medium is studied. The size of the polymer in bulk, which is mainly governed by the correlation length of the solvent density fluctuations, depends on the proximity to the critical point of the binary mixture. We find that in contrast to the bulk behavior, the conformational properties of the polymer in a porous medium depends strongly on the pore size. The latter controls the correlation length of the solvent density fluctuations and thus determines the polymer size.

Synthesis and Electrorheological Properties of LTNO-PS Composites

Core-shell structural Li and Ti co-doped NiO/polystyrene samples (LTNO/PS) were synthesized by a sol-gel method and studied by TEM, X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and LCR meter. It was found that the core-shell LTNO/PS particles are nearly smooth spheres with an average size of around 4.0 mm, while the LTNO particles alone have a size of around 3.5 mm. The electrorheological activity of LTNO particles with PS coating is larger than that of the bare ones with the same components. This research reveals that the high dielectric constant and corresponding dielectric loss of the LTNO is related to the Li and Ti contents. The increase of electrorheological activity of LTNO particles with PS coating is caused by the increase of dielectric permittivity, the surface structural change, and the reduction of leakage current of PS-coated samples due to the high resistivity and soft contacting of PS shell. By the preparation of core/shell structural materials and taking the advantage of the shell to reduce the leakage current between the particles, the electrorheological effect can be effectively increased.     

Electrorheological behavior of copper phthalocyanine-doped MCM-41 suspensions

A type of anhydrous electrorheological (ER) material of copper phthalocyanine (CuPC)-doped MCM-41 was synthesized by in situ micelle-assisted incorporation of CuPC during MCM-41 synthesis. The ER behavior of the suspensions of CuPC-doped MCM-41 particles in paraffin liquid with a 30 wt.% was investigated under an applied electric field. It is found that the ER effect increased with increasing the CuPC-doping ratio. The dopants of CuPC molecules within the mesochannel of MCM-41 mesoporous sieve improved the conductivity of the particles, and produced a proper conductivity of 10⁻⁷ S m⁻¹. Dielectric spectra of the fluids were also measured to examine their possible correlation with the ER behavior, and the results were explained based on Ikazaki's criterion that the relaxation frequency must be in the range 100–10⁵ Hz and the difference in the dielectric constant must be large below and above the relaxation frequency for an appreciable ER effect.     

Electrorheological properties of perchloric acid-doped polythiophene suspensions

Poly(3-thiopheneacetic acid), PTAA, was synthesized via an oxidative polymerization and doped with perchloric acid to control its conductivity. The rheological properties of the HClO₄-doped PTAA/silicone oil suspensions were measured in oscillatory shear to investigate the effects of electric field strength, particle concentration, and particle conductivity on electrorheological (ER) characteristics. The PTAA-based ER fluids exhibit viscoelastic behavior under an applied electric field and the ER response is amplified with increase of electric field strength. The dynamic moduli, G and G, increase dramatically by ten orders of magnitude when the field strength is increased to 2 kV/mm. The suspensions exhibit a transition from fluid-like to solid-like behavior as the field strength increases, and reach a saturated ER response at a field strength of 1 kV/mm. Increase of particle concentration and particle conductivity result in a lower transition field strength. Scaling arguments are presented which successfully superpose the scaled moduli at various electric field strengths onto a single master function of the dimensionless frequency.
