Poly(ethylene oxide) blends with crosslinking polyester resin

The miscibility of polyethylene oxide (PEO) with oligoester and polyester resin, the morphology of the blends and the kinetics of PEO crystallization in the blends were studied by optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The blends were found to be miscible with uncured resin at 60°C. After isothermal crystallization of PEO from liquid oligoester or UV cured polyester about 20% of the PEO material is still dissolved in the resin and it is incorporated between lamellae or in the interspherulitic regions. It was observed that the growth rate of PEO spherulites and the degree of crystallinity of PEO in the blends decreases very fast together with a decrease of the PEO content and the progress of the resin crosslinking.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Mixed-Ligand Ni(II) Complex of N-(1-Phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzylidene-5-pyrazolone) p-Nitrobezoylhydrazide and Pyridine

A novel mixed-ligand nickel complex, [Ni(PMBP—PNH) (Py)₃], [PMBP—PNH=N-(1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzylidene-5-pyrazolone) p-nitrobezoylhydrazide; Py = pyridine], has been synthesized by the hydrothermal method and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, thermal analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray diffraction reveals that the nickel (II) ion in the title complex is in a slightly distorted octahedral arrangement of the ONO donor atoms of primary ligand PMBP-PNH and three N-donor atoms in the secondary ligand pyridine.     

Influence of transcrystallinity on DSC analysis of polymers

Intense parasitic nucleation has been observed at the surface of differential scanning calorimetry samples for various polymers, whereas their crystallization traces exhibit complex shapes. Revisited overall kinetics theories and computer simulation, taking into account small thickness of samples and transcrystallinity effects, allow to explain and reproduce experimental ‘double peaks’, currently observed with polyamide 6-6. The beginning of the transformation and the main peak are attributed to surface and bulk nucleations, respectively. As a consequence, any DSC experiment should be followed by a microscopic observation and more accurate models including thermal gradients and resistances should be developed for their interpretation.

自增强高性能聚合物的成型工艺同力学性能间相关性研究——1.超高分子量聚乙烯的应力诱导结晶理论和其自增强作用

本文发展了一种高分子量聚合物熔融体的应力诱导结晶结构形态模型,它是由微晶聚集体(以下简称微区)-高分子链组网和缠结网的网络结构组成。基于上述模型,把二种网中的单个链组作为独立的统计单元和形变单元,计算了二种网中单个链组的末端距分布函数,进一步计算了二种网和总网的形变自由能。在此基础上,讨论了诱导结晶结晶机理和自增强聚合物网络自由能的依赖性,并着重地研究了超拉伸高聚物的起始熔点拉伸比间的关系。用超高分子量聚乙烯膜和超取向高密度聚乙烯纤维的起始熔点和拉伸比的实验数据进行处理,得到理论予期的近似直线关系,初步验证了聚合物网应力诱导结晶理论。     

聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯非晶态膜片单轴热——拉伸中的结晶与松弛

用动态力学损耗温度谱作为测试手段,研究了非晶态PET膜片在78—112℃温度范围内的单轴拉伸。实验结果说明,在较低温度下所得结晶的拉伸试样,完全由于应变诱发结晶,发生在应力-应变曲线的屈服后应力开始上升的阶段。在较高温度下(90℃或更高)拉伸可得非晶态而且光学各向同性的试样,是由于分子链的小尺度取向在拉伸过程中已完全热松弛所致,而分子链的大尺度取向要通过高弹态流动而松弛,其速率较慢,用拉伸后试样两端固定时的应力松弛进行了观察。在较低温度下应力松弛后仍为非晶态,在较高温度下应力松弛到起始应力的1O％下才开始结晶。FTIR研究表明在这种状态下的结晶有一结晶诱导期,其时间尺度与应力松弛阶段相当。     

Plasticization and Crystallization of Poly(ethylene Terephthalate) Induced by Water

Commercial poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was treated at R. H.>80% and room temperature for a set time. The glass transition temperature (Tg) decreases with the time of exposure to high humidity. The decrease in Tg is a result of plasticization. Our data indicate that the Tg of dry PET of 76-78°C may decrease to as low a temperature as 65-67°C when it is wet. Induced crystallization of PET in the presence of water reduces the cold crystallization temperature (Tc). The structure of water-induced crystals is imperfect and can be improved in perfection by annealing. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
