The ability of polymer to crosslink or exposure to radiation is frequently represented by a G value, the number of crosslinks per 100 eV absorbed. Several methods are available for its determination, the most frequent being the dose Dg required to form an incipient network since (with many systems) this corresponds to one crosslinked unit per weight average molecular (δ = 1). Its determination therefore depends on a knowledge of the molecular weight of the starting polymer. An alternative method, far less frequently used, is to measure the degree of swelling of a crosslinked network. This involves a knowledge of the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter μ and of the initial number average Mn(0). However if the concentration Ve of effective chains (deduced from swelling) is plotted against dose D, the slope gives G(X) directly, independent of Mn(0). This applies only when the system is very largely crosslinked. It may also be used to determine G(X) even when starting from the monomer itself (i.e. combining polymerization and crosslinking). It is shown that, for a series of polymers, irradiated either as liquids or in solution, the theoretical relation between swelling and crosslink density is followed, and the G(X) values derived from swelling compare well with those given in the literature, and based on gel fraction.  相似文献

Different polymers were investigated with respect to the sorption of solvents and gases. Depending on the chemical nature of the polymers this sorption leads to polymer swelling. The degree of swelling D/D0 was measured utilizing Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) as well as Surface plasmon resonance (SPR). From the change in film thickness after swelling in different solvents Hildebrand parameters of the polymers were determined. By crosslinking of the polymer films the degree of swelling can be controlled. In the case of ultra-thin polyimide films a higher degree of crosslinking led to a decreased selectivity of the transport of gases through the membrane. Reptation of macromolecules was also investigated and the influence of polymer swelling in different solvents has a great influence on the selectivity and diffusion coefficient.  相似文献

Rubber blend of acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) and ethylene-propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber (50/50) has been loaded with increasing contents, up to 100 phr, of reinforcing filler, namely, high abrasion furnace (HAF) carbon black. Prepared composites have been subjected to gamma radiation doses up to 250 kGy to induce radiation vulcanization under atmospheric conditions. Mechanical properties, namely, tensile strength (TS), tensile modulus at 100% elongation (M100), and hardness have been followed up as a function of irradiation dose and degree of loading with filler. On the other hand, variation of the swelling number as a physical property, as a function of same parameters, however, in car oil as well as brake oil has been undertaken. In addition, the electrical properties of prepared composites, namely, their electrical conductivity, were also evaluated. The thermal behavior of the prepared composites was also investigated. The results obtained indicate that improvement has been attained in different properties of loaded NBR/EPDM composites with respect to unloaded ones.  相似文献

Polybutadiene latex (PBL) vulcanization induced by 60Co radiation and the influence of dose on crosslinking were investigated. Morphology and particle size distribution were examined by AFM and a particle size analyzer. The casting films were characterized for their swelling and mechanical properties as a function of dose. The particle size, swelling and tensile properties decreased with dose, while gel fraction and storage modulus increased. The PBL fits well with the Charlesby–Pinner equation in the radiation dose, up to 200 kGy.  相似文献

Blends of styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) with varying loading degree from 60 wt% to 100 wt% of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) have been prepared. Gamma radiation vulcanization of prepared blends was carried out with doses varying between 50 kGy and 250 kGy. Mechanical properties, namely, tensile strength (Ts), elongation at break (Eb) and hardness were followed up as a function of loading degree of CMC and gamma irradiation dose. Moreover, physical properties, specifically swelling number (SN) and gel fraction % (GF%) were undertaken. Results obtained showed an improvement in mechanical as well as in physical properties with increasing either CMC content or dose of irradiation. Thermal properties namely thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) was carried out.  相似文献

Incorporation of plasticizers or other inert, liquid diluents causes a profound weakening of rubbers. The modulus of elasticity and tensile strength decrease approximately with the square of the gel fraction v0 of rubber which was present at the time of formation of the three-dimensional network. Equlibrium swelling of plasticized rubbers is well represented by v2m = kv0, where v2m is the volume fraction of rubber network in the swollen state, at equlibrium, and k a constant equal to v2m for the unplasticized rubber. This swelling law is independent of the way in which v0 is obtained; inert liquid diluents, comprising molecularly dispersed compounds, as well as suspensions of insoluble liquids, gases, and chemically inert, solid fillers yield the same relation. Further, it is independent of the chemical nature of solvent and rubber. It appears that also the mechanical properties of foams, liquid-filled foams, and plasticized elastomers containing the same volume fraction of network rubber are very similar.  相似文献

Abstract

Using different types and concentrations of crosslinkers, acrylamide (AAm) hydrogels have been prepared with chemical initiation and gamma irradiation techniques. The effects of the preparation method, crosslinkers type and concentration on swelling behavior of AAm hydrogels were investigated. Swelling was performed in distilled water and followed gravimetrically. Swelling parameters such as equilibrium swelling degree, equilibrium water content (EWC), maximum swelling, initial swelling rate, diffusion exponent and coefficient, and network parameters such as molecular mass between crosslinks, crosslink density, mesh size, and porosity were calculated and evaluated. The range of equilibrium swelling degree of AAm hydrogels was varied from 255% to 1450% depending upon the preparation method, crosslinker type, and crosslinker concentration. The diffusion of water into AAm hydrogels was found to be nonFickian.  相似文献

The swelling equilibrium and diffusion kinetics in various solvents of the maleimide-terminated polyurethanes (UBMIs) and of the triol and tetraol-crosslinked polyurethanes (PU) were studied. The polymer volume fraction of the UBMIs at swelling equilibrium is much higher than that of the tetraol-crosslinked PU networks for the same type of polyol used in the PU. It was explained by the high functionality of the UBMIs produced in the network structure. Furthermore, the molecular weight between crosslinks (Mc) has been calculated from the swelling model and the results exhibit good agreement with the proposed network structure. The early time sorption kinetic data were obtained to investigate the diffusion mechanism of the solvent in the networks. The solubility, diffusion coefficients, and permeability of the solvent in UBMI networks were found to be lower than in the multiol-crosslinked PU networks. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Hydrogels with various ionic group contents were prepared from acrylamide and crotonic acid (CrA) monomers with 0–12.9 mol % CrA in aqueous solutions by radiation‐induced polymerization and gelation with γ rays from a 60Co source. The volume swelling ratio of the poly(acrylamide/crotonic acid) hydrogels was investigated as a function of the pH and ionic strength of the swelling medium and the type of counterion in the swelling medium. The volume swelling ratio increased with an increase in pH and a decrease in the ionic strength. The volume swelling ratio of these hydrogels was evaluated with an equation, based on the Flory–Huggins thermodynamic theory, the James–Guth phantom network theory, and the Donnan theory of swelling of weakly charged ionic gels, that was modified here for the determination of the molecular weight between crosslinks (Mc) and the polymer–solvent interaction parameter (χ). The modified equation described very well the swelling behavior of the charged polymeric network. The same equation also provided the simultaneous measurement of these parameters for the systems investigated. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

One of the most popular cured rubbers used in industrial applications is styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) and frequently its network structure is studied by means of swelling techniques in solvent. Normally, toluene is used as solvent in this test. In order to estimate the crosslink density from the equilibrium volume fraction of rubber in the swollen state, the correct evaluation of the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter χ is necessary. This work covers the swelling behavior of cured SBR in toluene. The rubber was vulcanized with different amounts sulfur and accelerator at 433 K in order to obtain several network structures and crosslink densities. Network characterisations of the compounds were made by swelling measurements in the frame of the Flory-Rehner relationship using the molecular weight of the network chain between chemical crosslinks obtained previously by mechanical tests. A relationship between χ and vr, the polymer volume fraction at equilibrium (maximum) degree of swelling, was established for the cured SBR/toluene system. It was found that χ is not a constant but depends on the crosslink density in the sample. The types of crosslinks in these samples where estimated applying this function to the swelling behavior of the compounds previously treated with the thiol probe method.  相似文献

Copolymerization of acrylic acid and p‐chloromethylstyrene (p‐CMS) in dioxane initiated with α,α′‐azobisisobutyronitrile was carried out to produce macroinitiator P(AA‐co‐CMS) containing PhCH2Cl group at 65°C. Then methyl methacrylate was grafted onto P(AA‐co‐CMS) backbone using PhCH2Cl group as an initiation site and FeCl2/triphenyl phosphine complex as a catalyst. The resulted copolymer (AA‐co‐CMS)‐g‐PMMA with a comb‐like branched structure has a hydrophilic backbone (PAA) and hydrophobic side chains (PMMA). Compositions and structures of macroinitiator and the grafted product of P(AA‐co‐CMS)‐g‐PMMA were determined by 1H‐NMR, infrared (IR), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The average graft number, the average length of branch chains, the graft ratio, and the graft efficiency were investigated. The swelling behavior of the comb‐like branched polymer was also investigated. The gradual increase of swelling ratios was accompanied by an increase of pH and temperature. The kinetic exponents indicated that the swelling transport mechanisms transformed from Fickian diffusion to non‐Fickian transport as the decreasing pH.

The structure effects of polymers on the relationship between sol fraction and radiation dose arediscussed in detail. In consideration of the deviation of experimental results from Charlesby-Pin-ner's and Chen-Liu-Tang's expressions relating sol fraction to radiation dose, we introduced an ex-ponent βconcerned with the structure and property parameters of a polymer (glass transition tem-perature T_g and molecular internal rotating steric factor δ) and assumed that the fracture density isproportional to R~β(R is radiation dose). Thus, a general expression, formula (9), relating solfraction to radiation dose is derived. When β=1 andβ=0.5, this expression is reduced to the above-said two expressions. Us-ing this general expression, the experimental data of a number of polymers are treated. It is shownthat the expression is in good agreement with the experimental results, βvalue is in the range of 0. 5 to1.0.  相似文献

The purpose of this investigation was to report the synthesis of a novel pH‐sensitive acrylate‐based hydrogel by polymerizing the comonomers 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate, HEMA, acrylic acid, AA, and sodium acrylate, NaAc. The NaAc component was obtained by neutralization of AA with sodium hydroxide. Hydrogels were obtained by free radical copolymerization in aqueous solution in the presence of redox initiators, Na2S2O8/Na2S2O5, and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, EGDMA, crosslinker. The copolymers were synthesized by varying neutralization percent of AA in the range of 10–100. The swelling behavior of the copolymeric gels were investigated as a function of pH, temperature, ionic strength, and AA neutralization percent. The polymer mesh size, ξ, molecular weight between crosslinks, Mc , and crosslinking density, q, were determined by using the Flory‐Rehner equation in the pH range of 2–8 as 8.78–48.8 Å, 209–2667 g/mol, and 0.046–0.59, respectively. The diffusional exponent value, n, of the synthesized hydrogel was found to be 0.59, indicating a non‐Fickian diffusion mechanism. It can be concluded that the hydrogel demonstrated a sharp change in its water absorbency, mesh size and molecular weight between crosslinks of the network with a change in pH of the swelling media. The latter properties suggest strong consideration of these hydrogels for use as oral drug delivery systems and ion‐exchangers for removal of metal ions from aqueous media, owing to the carboxylate groups within the polymeric network.  相似文献

Temperature-sensitive hydrogel beads were prepared by radiation crosslinking of poly(vinyl methyl ether) PVME spheres wrapped in Ca-alginate. The obtained gel beads have diameters in the sub-millimeter or millimeter range (depending on the PVME concentration). They were characterized by sol-gel analysis, swelling measurements, and differential scanning calorimetry. The gel content g increases with increasing radiation dose D. The swelling degree Qv decreases with increasing PVME concentration cp and increasing D. In comparison to PVME bulkgels the phase-transition temperature of the synthesized PVME gel beads is a little decreased.  相似文献

Starch and sodium humate were utilized as raw material for synthesizing starch‐g‐poly(acrylic acid)/sodium humate (St‐g‐PAA/SH) superabsorbent by graft copolymerization reaction of starch (St) and acrylic acid (AA) in the presence of sodium humate (SH) in aqueous solution. The effect of weight ratio of AA to St, initial monomer concentration, neutralization degree of AA, amount of crosslinker, initiator and SH on water absorbency of the superabsorbent were studied. The swelling rate and swelling behavior in NaCl solution as well as reswelling ability of the superabsorbent were systematically investigated. The results showed that the superabsorbent synthesized under optimal conditions with SH content of 7.7 wt% and St content of 11.5 wt% exhibits water absorbency of 1100 g/g in distilled water and 86 g/g in 0.9 wt% NaCl solution, respectively. Introducing SH into the St‐g‐PAA polymeric network can improved the swelling rate and reswelling capability of the superabsorbent. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Summary: A modified poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) hollow fiber membrane with higher flux and flux recovery rate was prepared by γ-radiation induced grafting of acrylic acid (AA). The influence of radiation dose and monomer concentration on the grafting degree was investigated. The results indicated that the grafting degree increased in the lower monomer volume fraction until the monomer volume fraction exceeded 20%. The grafting degree increased with the increase of radiation dose. Structural and morphological of the original and grafted membrane surface were characterized by FT-IR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that acrylic acid was grafted onto PVDF hollow fiber membrane and the grafted membrane was more hydrophilic than original PVDF. There was a slight increase of breaking strength and yield stress with the increase of the grafting degree of AA. The pure water flux increased initially but decreased subsequently with the raise of grafting degree. When the grafting degree was 4.4%, the maximum pure water flux reached 1496.3 L/m2 × h, 1.79 times of original membrane. The pure water flux, flux recovery rate and rejection ratio for bovine serum albumin could improve simultaneously in a low grafting degree (<4.4%).  相似文献

Radiation induced degradation in a commercial, filled silicone composite has been studied by SPME/GC-MS, DMA, DSC, swelling, and multiple quantum NMR. Analysis of volatile and semi-volatile species indicates degradation via decomposition of the peroxide curing catalyst and radiation induced backbiting reactions. DMA, swelling, and spin-echo NMR analysis indicate an increase in crosslink density of near 100% upon exposure to a cumulative dose of 250 kGray. Analysis of the sol fraction via Charlesby-Pinner analysis indicates a ratio of chain scission to crosslinking yields of 0.38, consistent with the dominance of the crosslinking observed by DMA, swelling and spin-echo NMR and the chain scissioning reactions observed by MS analysis. Multiple quantum NMR has revealed a bimodal distribution of residual dipolar couplings near 1 krad/s and 5 krad/s in an approximately 90:10 ratio, consistent with bulk network chains and chains associated with the filler surface. Upon exposure to radiation, the mean 〈Ωd〉 for both domains and the width of both domains increased. The MQ-NMR analysis provided increased insight into the effects of ionizing radiation on the network structure of silicone polymers.  相似文献

The influence of some single salts (NaCl, KCl, Na2HPO4 and K2HPO4) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) on the swelling of aqueous poly(arcylamide)-gels was studied at 25°C in more than 600 experiments. The chlorides and phosphates cause a different behavior at high salt concentrations: The polyacrylamide gels swell in aqueous solutions of sodium and potassium chloride whereas they shrink when chloride ions are substituted by hydrogen phosphate ions. These differences are due to differences in the interactions of chloride and hydrogen phosphate ions with the network groups. In aqueous solutions of poly(ethylene glycol) the gels shrink continuously with increasing polymer concentration. At constant PEG mass fraction in the liquid phase, the swelling of the gel decreases with increasing molecular weight of PEG. The experimental results (degree of swelling, partitioning of solutes to the coexisting phases) are correlated by combining a model for the Gibbs excess energy for aqueous systems of polymers and electrolytes with a modification of the phantom-network theory. The correlation gives a good agreement with the experimental data for the degree of swelling, whereas in most cases, there is only a qualitative agreement for the partitioning of the solutes.  相似文献

A new type macromonomeric azo initiators also named macroinimers, MIMs, based on polypropylene glycol, PPG, with molecular weight 400 and 2000, were synthesized. Self-condensing radical polymerization of the macroinimers gave cross-linked polypropylene glycols. The solubility parameters of the cross-linked polymers determined using swelling experiments in a series of solvents have been reported. Crosss-linked PPG-400 and cross-linked PPG-2000 indicated the same solubility parameter value. But their swelling ratios were different because of the differences of the chain lengths in between of the cross-points (Mc) of the gels. Therefore, while the largest swelling ratio exhibited by a cross-linked PPG-2000 in tetrahydrofurane was being 19.48, this ratio was 6.84 for the cross-linked PPG-400 in the same solvent. The solubility parameters and constant α for these cross-linked polymers were obtained as δcross-linked PPG-400 = 9.56 (cal cm−3)1/2, α = 0.123 cm3 cal−1 and δcross-linked PPG-2000 = 8.95 (cal cm−3)1/2, α = 0.107 cm3 cal−1 by using the least squares regression method.  相似文献
