Bonding at Compatible and Incompatible Amorphous Interfaces of Polystyrene and Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) Below the Glass Transition Temperature

Abstract

Films of high‐molecular‐weight amorphous polystyrene (PS, M _w = 225 kg/mol, M _w/M _n = 3, T _g‐bulk = 97°C, where T _g‐bulk is the glass transition temperature of the bulk sample) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA, M _w = 87 kg/mol, M _w/M _n = 2, T _g‐bulk = 109°C) were brought into contact in a lap‐shear joint geometry at a constant healing temperature T _h, between 44°C and 114°C, for 1 or 24 hr and submitted to tensile loading on an Instron tester at ambient temperature. The development of the lap‐shear strength σ at an incompatible PS–PMMA interface has been followed in regard to those at compatible PS–PS and PMMA–PMMA interfaces. The values of strength for the incompatible PS–PMMA and compatible PMMA–PMMA interfaces were found to be close, both being smaller by a factor of 2 to 3 than the values of σ for the PS–PS interface developed after healing at the same conditions. This observation suggests that the development of the interfacial structure at the PS–PMMA interface is controlled by the slow component, i.e., PMMA. Bonding at the three interfaces investigated was mechanically detected after healing for 24 hr at T _h = 44°C, i.e., well below T _g‐bulks of PS and PMMA, with the observation of very close values of the lap‐shear strength for the three interfaces considered, 0.11–0.13 MPa. This result indicates that the incompatibility between the chain segments of PS and PMMA plays a negligible negative role in the interfacial bonding well below T _g‐bulk.     

Study of oxygen vacancy ordering in mullite at high temperatures

High temperature X-ray diffraction and quenching experiments of mullite single crystals with Al₂O₃:SiO₂ ratio 2:1 have been performed to investigate the stability of the oxygen vacancy ordering close to the melting point of mullite. The experiments show that the structure of mullite exhibits an extremely stable, temperature-independent incommensurate modulation. Inspection of satellite reflections at different temperatures leads to the conclusion that the ordering scheme of oxygen vacancies after the crystallization of mullite persists to the melting point and does not show any disordering effects. The experimental results are in agreement with former theoretical calculations using a statistical mechanics approach which yield the critical temperature T_c > 3000°C.     

Effect of Temperature on Cononsolvency of Polyvinylpyrrolidone in Water/Methanol Mixture

The behavior of polyvinylpyrrolidone in mixed water/methanol solvents was studied by rheoviscosimetry over a temperature range of 20°C–40°C. For the lower temperatures of this range, the intrinsic viscosity variation of the polymer vs. methanol molar fraction shows structural transitions (coil–globule–coil). This transition, which is usually attributed to the cononsolvency phenomenon, agrees with our previously published results obtained by dynamic light scattering. For higher temperatures, near 40°C, the intrinsic viscosity increase shows an expansion of the polymer over the alcohol molar fraction range 0.2 < X _A < 0.5. This last result can be attributed to the water/alcohol complex destruction under temperature increase. The “excess viscosity” of the polymer-mixed solvents vanishes with increasing temperature and becomes positive at 40°C. So, the polymer chain tends to transit from a globular to an ideal chain in the middle composition range of the mixed solvents.
