A study on the melt viscosity of linear and branched poly(butyleneterephthalate)

Linear and branched PBTP samples were synthesized and characterized in terms of the intrinsic viscosity, the melt-flow-index and, for some, the melt viscosity over a range of shear rates at 250 °C.An exponent of 3.2 in the equation relating to was found for linear samples. Both linear and branched samples exhibited Newtonian behaviour over a wide range of shear rates, but for any given melt-viscosity the branched samples became shear thinning at lower shear rates than the linear ones. Correlation between a branching index,, and melt-visocity ratio (0,b/0,l) was in agreement with a previous theoretical study.

Determination of the rate of rapid lipid transfer induced by poly(ethylene glycol) using the SLM Fourier transform phase and modulation spectrofluorometer

Rate constants were determined for the transfer of the fluorescent lipid probe 1-palmitoyl-2-[[2-[4-(6-phenyl-trans-1,3,5-hexatrienyl)phenyl]ethyl] oxy]carbonyl]-3-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DPHpPC) between large, unilamellar extrusion vesicles composed either of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) or of DPPC mixed with a small amount (0.5 mol%) of lyso phosphatidylcholine (Lyso PC). Transfer of the lipid probe in the presence of varying concentrations of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) was monitored using the SLM 48000-MHF Multi-Harmonic Fourier Transform phase and modulation spectrofluorometer to collect multifrequency phase and modulation fluorescence data sets on a subsecond time scale. The unique ability of this instrument to yield accurate fluorescence lifetime data on this time scale allowed transfer to be detected in terms of a time-dependent change in the fluorescent lifetime distribution associated with the lipid-like DPHpPC probe. This probe demonstrates two short fluoresence decay times (ca. 1.1–1.4 and 4.3–4.8 ns) in a probe-rich environment but a single long lifetime (ca. 7 ns) in a probe-poor environment. A simple two-state model for initial lipid transfer was used to analyze the multifrequency data sets collected over a 4-s time frame to obtain the time rate of change of the concentrations of donor and acceptor probe populations following rapid mixing of vesicles with PEG. The ability to measure fluorescence lifetimes on this time scale has allowed us to show that the of rate of lipid transfer increased dramatically at 35% PEG in both fusing and nonfusing vesicle systems. These results are interpreted in terms of a distinct interbilayer structure associated with intimate bilayer contact induced by high and potentially fusogenic concentrations of PEG.

Microstructure and Thermal and Tensile Properties of Poly(vinyl alcohol) Nanocomposite Films Reinforced by Polyacrylamide Grafted Cellulose Nanocrystals

Abstract

Polyacrylamide grafted cellulose nanocrystals (CNC-g-PAM) were incorporated into poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) by a solution casting method to fabricate nanocomposite films with enhanced thermal and tensile properties. The microstructure and the thermal and tensile properties of the PVA/CNC-g-PAM nanocomposite films were investigated as a function of CNC-g-PAM content. Infrared spectroscopy corroborated the presence of hydrogen bonds between PVA and the PAM on the surface of the CNC. Polarized optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy revealed good dispersion of the CNC-g-PAM in the PVA matrix and good interfacial compatibility. Accordingly, the initial degradation temperature of the nanocomposite films was elevated slightly compared to pristine PVA film. The glass transition temperature, melting temperature, and crystallinity of the PVA also varied slightly after the incorporation of the CNC-g-PAM. At both 0% and 50% RH, the nanocomposite films showed an obvious increase of elastic modulus, no apparent change of breaking strength and a drastic reduction of elongation at break with increasing CNC-g-PAM content.     

Liquid–Liquid Transition and Detrapping of Trapped Carriers of P(MMA/BA) Copolymers by Thermally Stimulated Depolarization Current

Poly (methyl methacrylate/butyl acrylate) [P(MMA/BA)] copolymers (M _η～2×10⁵) with different mass percentages of PMMA (100/0, 90/10, 81/19, and 75/25), were synthesized by the method of solution polymerization. In addition to the normal α and ρ peak, a third τ peak is observed in thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) spectra of the copolymers in the high temperature region. The α peak‐corresponds to the glass transition, the ρ peak originates from the detrapping of trapped carriers in the bulk amorphous structure related with flexible side groups, and the τ peak can be attributed to the charge detrapping related to the liquid–liquid transition of the copolymers. The three peaks all move to lower temperature with an increase of the BA component, indicating that the flexible side groups of butyl acrylate not only have an effect of plasticization on the glass transition and liquid–liquid transition, but also make the trap depth shallower and the detrapping process easier for the ρ and τ peaks. The experimental results confirm that TSDC analysis is very sensitive for investigating the liquid–liquid transition of polymers. The liquid–liquid transition temperature (T _LL) of the copolymers follows a type of the Fox equation. Fitting the results gives a T _LL of 102°C for polybutyl acrylate.     

Toughening of Propylene‐ethylene Copolymer/Calcium Carbonate Composites with High‐Density Polyethylene

Propylene‐ethylene copolymer/calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) composites (weight ratio=50/50) toughened with high density polyethylene (HDPE) were prepared using a twin‐screw extruder; the HDPE content in composites was in the range of 0–4 wt.%. The notched impact strength of propylene‐ethylene copolymer/CaCO₃ composites with 1.5 wt.% HDPE was 46% higher than that of propylene‐ethylene copolymer/CaCO₃ composites. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) experiments showed that good miscibility between propylene‐ethylene copolymer and HDPE enhanced the interpenetration of the macromolecules located in the interface. It was shown that debonding of the small HDPE particles within the propylene‐ethylene copolymer matrix resulted in the formation of small voids; the subsequent plastic deformation of the propylene‐ethylene copolymer matrix next to the voids thinned the ligaments and led to large energy consumption.     

Growth of polymer crystals during annealing

Observations by transmission electron microscopy are reported on the processes involved in polymer crystal growth during annealing. The observations suggest that crystal growth occurs by two processes. One process involves the melting of those regions of the crystals in which the melting point is lower than the annealing temperature. The polymer melt due to the melting process gradually becomes incorporated into the unmolten crystals, resulting in crystal growth. The alternative process is solid-state crystal growth by the migration of the amorphous region between crystallites.
