Specific interactions in blends of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(styrene-co-acry-lonitrile) (SAN) were studied as a function of copolymer composition and blend ratio by using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). It was shown that miscibility occurred within a certain range of copolymer compositions because the presence of PCL reduced the thermodynamically unfavorable repulsion between styrene and acrylonitrile segments in the random copolymer. This effect was observed in terms of a shift to higher frequencies in the 700 cm-1 γ-CH out-of-plane deformation vibration absorption of styrene and in the approximately 2236 cm?1 C?N stretching frequency band in acrylonitrile segments. Specific intermolecular interactions between SAN and PCL were not observed in this study. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Isothermal crystallization of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) blended with oligomeric poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) is investigated by polarized optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry at various temperatures (Tc). The growth rate of PBT spherulites is found to depend on time (t), as the spherulite radius (r) linearly increases with t at the early stages of crystallization (r ∝ t), then, with the progress of phase transition, the spherulite radius becomes dependent on the square root of the time (r ∝ t1/2) until termination of crystal growth. The nonlinear advance of the crystal growth front is caused by a varied composition of the melt phase in contact with the growing crystals, due to diffusion of mobile PCL chains away from the spherulite surface. The melt phase becomes spatially inhomogeneous, causing self‐deceleration of PBT crystallization until a limit composition that prevents further crystallization is reached in the melt. The maximum crystallinity achievable during isothermal crystallization decreases with Tc. The lowering of the temperature after termination of the isothermal crystallization allows to complete the crystal growth, but the final developed crystallinity still depends on Tc, being lower at higher Tcs. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Sulfonation of poly(oxy-1,4-phenyleneoxy-1,4-phenylenecarbonyl-1,4-phenylene), PEEK, improves its miscibility with poly(ϵ-caprolactam), Nylon-6 (N6). This article describes the thermal transitions and the specific interactions that occur for blends of the free acid derivative (H-SPEEK) and the lithium (Li-SPEEK) and zinc salts (Zn-SPEEK) of sulfonated PEEK (19.2 mol % sulfonation) with N6. The interactions responsible for miscibility were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. For blends of H-SPEEK and N6, miscibility is due to hydrogen bonding between the sulfonic acid and the amide group. For blends of N6 with the salts of SPEEK the specific interaction involves an ion-dipole complex of Li+ with the amide carbonyl or Zn2+ with the amide nitrogen. The relative strengths of the intermolecular interactions for the three types of blends increased as the cation was varied in the order: H+ < Li+ < Zn2+, and the Tgs of the mixtures increased in the same order. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Over the last 10 years, research into co‐continuous polymer blends has been intense. Despite these efforts, there are very few detailed studies on the stability of this complex morphology. In this work, blends of poly(ε‐caprolactone) and polystyrene were melt‐mixed in an internal mixer for time intervals of 0.5–120 min at set temperatures of 140 and 170 °C, and the effect of the mixing time on the co‐continuous morphology was studied. This blend system was chosen because each component could be selectively dissolved and this allowed for a complete study of the co‐continuous region. The phase continuity was measured with a solvent‐extraction gravimetric technique, and the concentration range for co‐continuity was determined. The phase size and phase size distribution were obtained with the mercury intrusion porosimetry technique. The results indicate that the co‐continuous morphology forms very early in the mixing process and achieves a stable morphology within the first 5 min of mixing for virtually all the co‐continuous compositions. For all cases studied, the co‐continuous morphology remains unchanged over mixing times as long as 1–2 h. These results support the notion of a stable steady‐state formation of co‐continuous morphologies during melt mixing similar to that observed for matrix/dispersed phase type blends. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ionic aggregates in a series of Zn‐neutralized poly(styrene‐co‐styrene sulfonate) (SPS) random ionomers have been imaged using scanning transmission electron microscopy. The Zn‐rich aggregates were found to have two shapes: solid spheres (Type I) and shells or vesicles (Type II). Type I aggregates range in a maximum diameter from 4 to 10 nm, whereas Type II aggregates range in a maximum diameter from 9 to 55 nm with a vesicle wall thickness of ∼ 3 nm. Lightly neutralized ionomers exhibited only Type I aggregates, whereas higher neutralization levels exhibited both Type I and II aggregates. Lightly neutralized ionomers also showed evidence of macrophase separation at the micron size scale. These direct observations of ionic aggregates contradict previous interpretations of small‐angle X‐ray scattering data with respect to size, size dispersity, shape, and spatial distribution. In addition, the aggregates observed in SPS differ markedly from the nearly monodisperse ∼ 2‐nm spherical aggregates observed in Zn‐neutralized poly(ethylene‐co‐methacrylic acid). The presence of vesicular aggregates encourages a re‐examination of the morphologies and properties of styrenic ionomers. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

In this article, the miscibility of poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) with poly(styrene‐co‐acrylonitrile) (SAN) containing 25 wt % of acrylonitrile is studied from both a qualitative and a quantitative point of view. The evidences coming from thermal analysis (differential scanning calorimetry) demonstrate that PCL and SAN are miscible in the whole range of composition. The Flory interaction parameter χ1,2 was calculated by the Patterson approximation and the melting point depression of the crystalline phase in the blends; in both cases, negative values of χ1,2 were found, confirming that the system is miscible. The interaction parameter evaluated within the framework of the mean field theory demonstrates that the miscibility of PCL/SAN blends is due to the repulsive interaction between the styrene and acrylonitrile segments in SAN. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An analysis by differential scanning calorimetry, modulated differential scanning calorimetry, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicates that blends of poly(vinyl phenyl ketone) (PVPhK) and poly(4‐vinyl phenol) (P4VPh) are miscible at ambient temperature. Miscibility, ascertained, is supported by the existence of a single glass transition for each composition of the PVPhK/P4VPh blends. The FTIR spectroscopy analysis demonstrates the formation of hydrogen bonds between carbonyl groups of PVPhK and hydroxyl groups of P4VPh. This specific interaction has a crucial role on the miscibility behavior of PVPhK/P4VPh blends. The evolution of the glass transition of the PVPhK, P4VPh, and its blends as a function of mixture composition shows negative deviations with to respect to the ideal mixing rule, and both Fox and Gordon–Taylor equations predict this behavior successfully. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We previously reported self‐association and interassociation equilibrium constant values describing hydrogen bonding in solutions of a hyperbranched polyester. These allow us to estimate the extent of intramolecular screening and the fraction of same‐chain contacts in this system as a function of generation number. In this article, we use a similar method to evaluate the degree of intramolecular screening in polymer blends. The calculated values reported here are consistent with those previously reported in our solution study, confirming the validity of the calculation procedures we used to evaluate the accessibility of functional groups in these highly branched systems. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyhexanoate) (PHB‐HHx) and methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG) blends were prepared using melt blending. The single glass transition temperature, Tg, between the Tgs of the two components and the negative χ value indicated that PHB‐HHx and MPEG formed miscible blends over the range of compositions studied. The Gordon–Taylor equation proved that there was an interaction between PHB‐HHx and MPEG in their blends. FTIR supported the presence of hydrogen bonding between the hydroxyl group of MPEG and the carbonyl group of PHB‐HHx. The spherulitic morphology and isothermal crystallization behavior of the miscible PHB‐HHx/MPEG blends were investigated at two crystallization temperatures (70 and 40 °C). At 70 °C, melting MPEG acted as a noncrystalline diluent that reduced the crystallization rate of the blends, while insoluble MPEG particles acted as a nucleating agent at 40 °C, enhancing the crystallization rate of the blends. However, no interspherulitic phase separation was observed at the two crystallization temperatures. The constant value of the Avrami exponent demonstrated that MPEG did not affect the three‐dimensional spherulitic growth mechanism of PHB‐HHx crystals in the blends, although the MPEG phase, such as the melting state or insoluble state, influenced the crystallization rate of the blends. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Massive quantities of marine seaweed, Ulva armoricana are washed onto shores of many European countries and accumulates as waste. Attempts were made to utilize this renewable resource in hybrid composites by blending the algal biomass with biodegradable polymers such as poly(hydroxy‐butyrate) and poly‐(ε‐caprolactone). Compression‐molded films were developed and examined for their morphological, thermal and mechanical property. The Ulva fibers were well dispersed throughout the continous matrix exhibiting considerable cohesion with both polymers. Occasionally, regions with exposed fibres or aggregates were visible. About 50% algal content seemed to be an ideal concentration, thereafter, thermal stability was impacted. A progressive decrease in melting heat (ΔHm) was observed with increased algal content as well as a decrease in the crystallinity of the polymer matrix due to the presence of the organic filler. The addition of algal fibres improved the Young modulus of the blends, creating a concomitant loss in percent elongation (El) and ultimate tensile strength. Fiber content above 40% impacted tensile property negatively and composites with over 70% fiber contents composites were too fragile. Data suggest that macro algae are compatible with both polymers and processable as fillers in hybrid blends. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2010 相似文献

Poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL), cellulose acetate (CA) and their blends were characterized by their tensile strength, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and optical microscopy (OM). The compatibility of the blends was investigated and the OM results showed that CA tended to disperse as discrete particles in PCL. Thermal analysis showed the characteristic melting temperature peaks for PCL and CA in all blends, indicating that the compounds were immiscible. The addition of CA to PCL increased slightly the crystallinity of PCL, decreased the elongation at yield and the tensile strength up to 40/60 PCL/CA (w/w), which suggested incompatibility between the polymers. Together, these results indicate the absence of a strong chemical interaction between the two polymers. In agreement with this, the addition of CA to blends with PCL increased Young's modulus.

Blends of poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) with zein (PCL/zein) in different proportions (100/0, 75/25, 50/50, 25/75 and 0/100 wt% containing 5 wt% glycerol) were compared based on their mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation at break, and Young's modulus), and on their thermal properties, the latter determined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). The morphology of the materials was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Blends of PCL/zein showed reduced tensile strength and elongation at break, but increased Young's modulus compared to the pure polymers, in agreement with the DMTA and SEM results. These findings indicated that PCL and zein were incompatible. TGA showed that the thermal stability was enhanced by the addition of zein to PCL, whereas SEM showed a poor interfacial interaction between the polymers.

Blends of polyamide-6 with lithium ionomers of 9.8 and 5.4 mole percent sulfonated polystyrene, formed by combining solutions of these polymers, are miscible over a wide compositional range, but those with the equivalent sodium ionomers are not. The molecular origin of this difference is addressed by studying the far infared and infrared spectra of the blends and pure materials to follow changes in the interactions between the cations and their surroundings, and changes in the interactions between functional groups. Based on analysis of these spectra, a molecular level interpretation of the blending is proposed. The initial step involves both the interaction of one amide carbonyl with an Li+ ion and simultaneous hydrogen bonding between an amide N? H and a sulfonate group. This eventually leads to formation of an Li(>CO)+n(n ~ 4) entity while the sulfonates are converted to the acid form through hydrogen bonding to the amide N? H groups. The Na+ ion does not interact strongly enough with the amide groups to leave its sulfonate environment to a significant extent. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Nonisothermal and isothermal crystallization behaviors of the hyperbranched poly(ε‐caprolactone) (HPCL)/poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and linear poly(ε‐caprolactone) (LPCL)/(PVC) blends were characterized with various blend composition such as 100/0, 95/5, 90/10, and 80/20, respectively. HPCL was synthesized through polycondensation of AB2 macromonomer while LPCL and PVC were commercially purchased. The architectural characterization performed on 1H NMR spectra revealed that HPCL consisted of about 3 AB2 units and the linear segments consisted of 25 ε‐CL units. Through the nonisothermal crystallization analyses by modified Avrami approach with DSC crystallization exotherms, it was found that the crystallization rate was retarded by the increase in the noncrystallizable component (PVC) in the blends. This is in good agreement with the results of the isothermal crystallization analyses where time resolved small angle light scattering (SALS) and polarized optical microscopy (POM) were used. The effect of molecular architectural difference between HPCL and LPCL on the crystallization of their binary blends with PVC was elucidated by comparing the crystallization kinetic parameters. Both the nonisothermal and isothermal crystallization analyses showed that the crystallization rates of HPCL/PVC blends was faster than LPCL/PVC blends at given blend compositions. The faster crystallization of the HPCL/PVC blends is ascribed to the two specific architectural characteristics of HPCL; the branched structure and the incorporated long linear segments. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Blends of poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC) with copolymer poly(styrene‐co‐4‐vinyl phenol) (STVPh) have been studied by electron spin resonance (ESR) spin probe method and Raman spectroscopy. The ESR results indicated that the nitroxide radical existed in a PPC‐rich and an STVPh‐rich micro domain in the blends, corresponding to the fast‐motion and slow‐motion component in the ESR spectra, respectively. And in the temperature dependence composite spectra, the fast‐motion fraction increased with increasing the hydroxyl group content in copolymer STVPh. Moreover, the ESR parameter T5mT, rotational correlation times (τc) and activation energies (Ea) showed similar dependence on the hydroxyl group content as the fast‐motion fraction. It resulted from the enhancement of the hydrogen‐bonding interaction between the hydroxyl groups in STVPh and the carboxyl groups and ether oxygen in PPC. However, the distinct band shift and intensity change among the Raman spectra of pure polymer components and those of the blends were observed. In the carboxyl‐stretching region, the band shifted to lower frequency with increasing the hydroxyl groups. Furthermore, the phase morphologies of the blends were obtained by optical microscopy. All could be concluded that the hydrogen‐bonding interaction between the two components was progressively favorable to the mixing process and was the driving force for the miscibility enhancement in the blends.

For the first time, poly(ε‐caprolactone) and poly(ε‐caprolactone‐co‐ε‐caprolactam) nanoparticles were successfully obtained by anionic polymerization of ε‐caprolactone and anionic copolymerization of ε‐caprolactone with ε‐caprolactam, respectively, in heterophase by the miniemulsion technique. After polymerization the resulting dispersions are stable for hours in case of the pure polyester and days for the copolymer. The syntheses were carried out with different continuous phases, amounts of surfactant, initiator, and monomers. The influence of the reaction parameters on the molecular weight of the polymers and on colloidal characteristics like size and morphology of the nanoparticles were studied by dynamic light scattering, gel permeation chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, nuclear magnetic resonance, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The miscibility of poly(4-hydroxystyrene-co-methoxystyrene) (HSMS) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). HSMS/PCL blends were found to be miscible in the whole composition range by detecting only a glass transition temperature (Tg), for each composition, which could be closely described by the Fox rule. The crystallinity of PCL in the blends was dependent on the Tg of the amorphous phase. The greater the HSMS content in the blends, the lower the crystallinity. The polymer–polymer interaction parameter, χ32, was calculated from melting point depression of PCL using the Nishi-Wang equation. The negative value of χ32 obtained for HSMS/PCL blends has been compared with the value of χ32 for poly(4-hydroxystyrene) (P4HS)/PCL blends. The specific nature, quantitative analysis, and average strength of the intermolecular interactions in HSMS/PCL and P4HS/PCL blends have been determined at room temperature and in the molten state by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurements. The FTIR results have been in good correlation with the thermal behavior of the blends. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36 : 95–104, 1998 相似文献

The effects of the copolymer microstructure on the morphology evolution in polyethylene/poly(ethylene‐co‐α‐olefin) blends were investigated. Microscopy revealed that the melt‐phase morphology, inferred from the solid‐state morphologies of annealed and quenched samples, was strongly affected by the copolymer structure, that is, the branch content and branch length. Higher molecular weight α‐olefin comonomer residues and residue contents in the copolymers led to faster coarsening of the morphology. The molecular weight of the polyethylene and the copolymers affected the coarsening rates of the morphology, principally through its influence on the melt viscosity. The effects of the molecular weight were largely explained by the normalization of the coarsening rate data with respect to the thermal energy and zero‐shear‐rate viscosity. Thus, the effect of the molecular weight on the compatibility of the blends was much smaller than the effects of the branch length and branch number. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The miscibility behavior of poly(2‐ethyl‐2‐oxazoline) (PEOx)/poly(vinyl phenyl ketone hydrogenated) (PVPhKH) blends was studied for the entire range of compositions. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermomechanical analysis measurements showed that all the PEOx/PVPhKH blends studied had a single glass‐transition temperature (Tg). The natural tendency of PVPhKH to self‐associate through hydrogen bonding was modified by the presence of PEOx. Partial IR spectra of these blends suggested that amide groups in PEOx and hydroxyl groups in PVPhKH interacted through hydrogen bonding. This physical interaction had a positive influence on the phase behavior of PEOx/PVPhKH blends. The Kwei equation for Tg as a function of the blend composition was satisfactorily used to describe the experimental data. Pure‐component pressure–volume–temperature data were also reported for both PEOx and PVPhKH. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 42: 636–645, 2004 相似文献

Broadband dielectric spectroscopy was used to study the segmental (α) and secondary (β) relaxations in hydrogen‐bonded poly(4‐vinylphenol)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PVPh/PMMA) blends with PVPh concentrations of 20–80% and at temperatures from ?30 to approximately glass‐transition temperature (Tg) + 80 °C. Miscible blends were obtained by solution casting from methyl ethyl ketone solution, as confirmed by single differential scanning calorimetry Tg and single segmental relaxation process for each blend. The β relaxation of PMMA maintains similar characteristics in blends with PVPh, compared with neat PMMA. Its relaxation time and activation energy are nearly the same in all blends. Furthermore, the dielectric relaxation strength of PMMA β process in the blends is proportional to the concentration of PMMA, suggesting that blending and intermolecular hydrogen bonding do not modify the local intramolecular motion. The α process, however, represents the segmental motions of both components and becomes slower with increasing PVPh concentration because of the higher Tg. This leads to well‐defined α and β relaxations in the blends above the corresponding Tg, which cannot be reliably resolved in neat PMMA without ambiguous curve deconvolution. The PMMA β process still follows an Arrhenius temperature dependence above Tg, but with an activation energy larger than that observed below Tg because of increased relaxation amplitude. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
