Thermal-oxidative aging of DGEBA/EPN/LMPA epoxy system: Chemical structure and thermal-mechanical properties

The evolvement of chemical structure and thermal-mechanical properties of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A and novolac epoxy resin blends cured with low molecular polyamide (DGEBA/EPN/LMPA system) during thermal-oxidative aging were investigated by Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometry (ATR-FTIR) and Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis (DMTA). The results revealed that the chemical reactions during thermal-oxidative aging contained oxidation and chain scission. Some possible chemical reaction processes were given. There was a new compound formed during aging processes and the change of its glass transition temperature (T_g) with aging time followed an exponential law. In addition, the changes of dynamic mechanical behavior of this epoxy system aged at four different temperatures (110 °C, 130 °C, 150 °C, 170 °C) were compared. An empirical formula was obtained through kinetic analysis and this formula can be used to predict the oxidative degree of the surface at different aging temperature.     

High‐performance aromatic thermosetting resins with hydroxyl and ethynyl groups

A novel hydroxyl‐ethynyl‐arene (HEA) resin was synthesized via Aldol condensation and Sonogashira reaction. The structure of the obtained resin was confirmed by the techniques of mass spectroscopy (MS), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H‐NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, (FT‐IR) and elemental analysis (EA). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed an exotherm at the temperature range of 187°C–245°C, attributable to crosslinking reaction of the acetylene groups. After thermal cure, the obtained cured resin possessed excellent thermal stability. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) in nitrogen showed the Td₅ (temperature of 5% weight loss) was about 400°C, and the char yield in nitrogen was about 78% at 900°C. The laminate composite of HEA resin was prepared and its mechanical and thermal properties were determined. The usefulness of the HEA resin as matrix for ablative composite was evaluated.

Lithium-ion battery electrode prepared by confining carbon nanotubes/V2O5 nanoribbons suspension in model air–liquid foams

Well-defined macroporous V₂O₅–CNTs hybrid solid foams are synthesized in the form of monolith by a controlled bubbling process. For the first time, the solid phase results from the co-assembly of two different anisotropic nano-building blocks in the continuous phase of model foams whose bubble size and liquid fraction could be tuned. Their electrochemical properties were examined in view of their application as cathode for Li-ion battery. This first investigation revealed that capacity up to 250 mAh g⁻¹ (i.e. 2 Li per V₂O₅) can be attain with a good retention under cycles when CNTs are present making these new cellular materials interesting candidate for systems which require the penetration of viscous ionic-liquid/polymer electrolytes.

<正>Oligo(methylsilylene)-ethynylene polymer with crosslinkable ethynyl unit in the main chain was synthesized by condensation ofα,ω-dicholorooligo(methylsilane) with dilithioacetylene.The as-synthesized polymer was characterized by GPC,FT-IR and NMR.The results showed ethynyl group was successfully introduced to the polymer main chain.The ceramic yield was dramatically increased by the cross-polymerization of ethynyl group,and the excess silicon of PMS was compensated.Nearstoichiometric (C/Si=1.17) and partial crystallizationβ-SiC monoliths were obtained by pressureless pyrolysing PSPA at 1200℃in a high yield(73.6 wt%).

The development of stress during NaKion exchange of polycrystalline β, β″-Al2O3 and its influence on the ion-exchange process

Na⁺K⁺ ion-echange at 810°C and 1200°C between high density β, β″-Al₂O₃ multiphase specimens and KClNaCl melts has been investigated. It was found that the equilibrium conditions are affected significantly by the developed stresses. Microstresses are caused by the thermal expansion anisotropy of both phases and by the difference of alkali ion diffusion rates in the two phases. Macrostresses are introduced by compositional differences between the surface and interior of the specimens. The critical condition for the appearance of microfractures has been estimated using a simplified model. Based on the determination of the distribution gradient of the two kinds of ions, the residual macrostresses have also been calculated. Analysis of these two kinds of stress suggests failure of the material when conditions are such that they act concurrently.
