Characterization of irradiation-induced crosslink of epoxidised natural rubber/ethylene vinyl acetate (ENR-50/EVA) blend

The effect of irradiation on tensile, dynamic mechanical properties, thermal properties and morphology of ENR-50, EVA and ENR-50/EVA blend was investigated. All the samples were irradiated using a 3.0 MeV electron beam (EB) machine with doses ranging from 20 to 100 kGy. Results indicate that the gel fraction of ENR-50, EVA and ENR-50/EVA blend increases with irradiation dose. Concerning tensile properties, it can be seen that EB radiation increases the tensile strength of all the samples, increases the elongation at break of ENR-50 and ENR-50/EVA blend, reduces the elongation at break of EVA, increases M200 (modulus at 200% strain) of ENR-50 and EVA, while decreases M200 of the ENR-50/EVA blend. For dynamic mechanical studies, it was found that EB radiation increases the T_g of all the samples due to the effect of irradiation-induced crosslinking. The compatibility of ENR-50/EVA blend also found to be improving upon irradiation. In the case of thermal properties, it was detected that T_m, T_c and the degree of crystallinity of ENR-50/EVA blend increase with an increase in irradiation dose. This was due to the perfection in the crystal growth occurring upon radiation. Morphology changes play a major role in the changes of the properties of ENR-50/EVA blend. Finally, it can be concluded that ENR-50/EVA blend can be vulcanized by EB radiation.

CT complexes in radiation polymerisation processes including grafting, curing and hydrogel formation

Parameters influencing the grafting of a typical charge transfer (CT) complex, maleic anhydride /triethylene glycol divinyl ether, to representative substrates, cellulose and polypropylene, initiated by UV and ionising radiation have been investigated. The variables studied include effect of solvent, role of donor involving the type of ether and the nature of the acceptor including the use of common monomers like methyl methacrylate.

Characterization of a clear coating cured by UV/EB radiation

The quality and performance of the polymeric materials cured by ultraviolet (UV)/electron beam (EB) radiation depends on the components of coating formulation, as well as the type of radiation used in the curing process. The aim of this study was to establish the correlation between the cure degree of a clear coating irradiated with different radiation doses of UV or EB and the tensile properties of the polymeric films obtained. The cure degree was measured by DSC and FTIR.

Thermally Conductive Study of Polyethylene/Al2O3 Composite Networks Cross-linked by Electron Beam Irradiation

The surface-modified Al₂O₃ particles were introduced into polyethylene(PE) to enhance the thermal conductivity, and PE/Al₂O₃ cross-linked networks with improved thermal and mechanical properties were prepared through electron beam(EB) irradiation technology. The incorporation of reactive irradiation sensitizer was useful in fabricating a high degree of cross-linking(DC) PE networks under a low irradiation dose. In the PE sample containing 2% sensitizer, DC ca.67.1% could be obtained under 60 kGy(1 kGy=1000 J/kg). EB-irradiation greatly improved the tensile stress of PE-based samples, and the tensile stresses of the samples with 0.2%-5% TMPTA(trimethylolpro-pane triacrylate) under 60 kGy were 24.61-27.77 MPa. All the EB-irradiated samples had higher Vicat softening temperatures than the samples without irradiation. After treatment at 120 kGy, the Vicat softening temperatures of PE-Al₂O₃-44/TMPTA-2 increased from 127℃ to 130.4℃. SEM images revealed that PE-Al₂O₃-50 samples with increased amount of Al₂O₃ particles showed a conduction "pathway," and thermal conductivity reached 0.67 W/(m·K). Thus, high-performance pipes were extruded, which could satisfy the static hydraulic blasting test and exhibit improved thermal conduction capability.     

Isothermal oxidation behavior of a thermal barrier coating prepared using EB‐PVD

A novel two‐layer structural thermal barrier coating (TBC) system with a ~150‐µm‐thick CoCrAlY bond coat (BC) and a ~60‐µm‐thick yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) ceramic top coat (TC) was prepared on superalloy K444 matrix using electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB‐PVD). This deposited coating was characterized using isothermal oxidation tests (1000 °C × 200 h). The results indicated that the deposited coating had a dense structure and close bonding between the layers. The thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer (predominantly alumina) that formed at the interface between the TC and the BC as a consequence of the oxidation process was effective in preventing the further oxidation of the BC. In the later stages of the oxidation process, embedded oxides of chromium/cobalt were observed among the TC's columnar grains, and the TGO underwent densification thinning. Through observations of the growth behavior of the TGO, the element diffusion, displacement reaction, and volatilization of the oxides were found to be related to the weight loss in the coating and the densification thinning of the TGO. These coatings displayed superior high‐temperature oxidation resistance properties. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
