Preparation and Properties of Aramid-Silica Hybrids with Inter-Phase Bonding Through (3-glycidoxypropyl)-trimethoxysilane

Nano-composites from aramid-silica system have been prepared via sol-gel process. Poly (phenyleneterephthalamide) copolymer chains were prepared by reacting a mixture of p- and m-phenylenediamines with terephthaloyl chloride in dimethylacetamide used as solvent. The sol-gel process in the polymer matrix was carried out through hydrolysis and condensation of a mixture of tetraethoxysilane and (3-glycidoxypropyl) trimethoxysilane. The latter was used to develop linkage, on one hand with silica network structure using alkoxy groups and on the other hand with aramid chains at its secondary amine groups through glycidal groups of silane. Mutual interaction between the two disparate phases aramid and silica network was thus created. Thin films of the composites containing different proportions of silica ranging from 5.0 to 25.0-wt% were cast by the solvent elution technique. The α-relaxation temperature associated with the glass transition was measured by the dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. The results showed an increase in the glass transition temperature from 328°C for the pure aramid to 352°C for the hybrid materials containing 25-wt% silica, an indicative of the increased interfacial interaction between the two phases. Films having relatively low silica content were flexible and transparent, but those with high silica content were opaque and brittle. These films were tested for their tensile strength, modulus and toughness. The mechanical strength of the composites as compared to the pure aramid increased initially but with further addition of silica the strength decreased. The initial increase can be explained due to increased interfacial interaction between the two phases, however agglomeration of silica particles was responsible for decreasing strength at higher silica contents.     

The effect of humidity on thermal process of zinc acetate

The thermal decomposition of zinc acetate dihydrate Zn(CH₃CO₂)₂·2H₂O in some humidity-controlled atmospheres has been successfully investigated by novel thermal analyses, which are sample-controlled thermogravimetry (SCTG), thermogravimety combined with evolved gas analysis using mass spectrometry (TG–MS) and simultaneous measurement of differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffractometry (XRD–DSC). The thermal processes of anhydrous zinc acetate in dry gas atmosphere by conventional linear heating experiment initiated with the sublimation around 180 °C, followed by the fusion and the decomposition over 250 °C. SCTG was useful to interpret clearly the successive reaction because the high-temperature parallel decompositions were effectively inhibited. The thermal behavior changed dramatically by introducing water vapor in the atmosphere and the thermal process was quite different from that in dry gas atmosphere. Zinc oxide (ZnO) was formed only in a humidity-controlled atmosphere, and could be easily synthesized at temperatures below 300 °C. XRD–DSC equipped with a humidity generator revealed directly the crystalline change from Zn(CH₃CO₂)₂ to ZnO. A detailed thermal process of Zn(CH₃CO₂)₂·2H₂O and the effect of water vapor are discussed.

Reversible dynamics and the macroscopic rate law for a solvable Kolmogorov system: The three bakers' reaction

We investigate a piecewise linear (area-preserving) mapT describing two coupled baker transformations on two squares, with coupling parameter 0c1. The resulting dynamical system is Kolmogorov for anyc0. For rational values ofc, we construct a generating partition on whichT induces a Markov chain. This Markov structure is used to discuss the decay of correlation functions: exponential decay is found for a class of functions related to the partition. Explicit results are given forc=2^–n. The macroscopic analog of our model is a leaking process between two (badly) stirred containers: according to the Markov analysis, the corresponding progress variable decays exponentially, but the rate coefficients characterizing this decay are not those determined from the one-way flux across the cell boundary. The validity of the macroscopic rate law is discussed.

热导式热量计特征热谱方程的建立

Based on the interfacial model of a conduction calorimeter, a characteristic thermogram equation is suggested in this paper. Measurements of only two quantities such as the maximum peak height △m and its time tm, enables us to calculate the peak height at any interval by using this model. Thermograms of alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl propionate and ethyl acetate have been measured at 25℃, respectively. The themographic data calculated by using the characteristic thermogram equation are in reasonable agreement with those read from the thermograms.     

The drawing behavior of Y-Ba-Cu-O sol from non-aqueous solution by a complexing process

A complexing process is developed to prepare Y-Ba-Cu-O superconducting fibers. The process is not identical to typical sol-gel processes; here the resulting gel network is built up by hydrogen bonding linkage among complexing species in non-aqueous solution. Cu acetate, [Cu(OAC)₂], Ba methoxyethoxide [Ba(ORE)₂] and Y acetate [Y(OAC)₃] are used as precursors for preparing homogeneous gels while -methacrylic acid (HOAA) and diethylenetriamine (DETA) as complexing agents, and methoxyethanol (REOH) as solvent. Fibers drawn from a sol obtained through reduced pressure present no or little deformation at 80°MoC via adjusting the amount of DETA and HOAA. Cu(OAC)₂, Ba(ORE)₂ and Y(OAC)₃ in the complexing process have been demonstrated to form gels without hydrolysis and condensation at ambient atmosphere. The relationships between the drawing behavior of sols and gel structure with different amounts of DETA and HOAA are suggested. The concentration region of drawing the gel fibers with no or little deformation heated at 80°MoC is also found.     

Effect of evaporation temperature on the formation of particulate membranes from crystalline polymers by dry-cast process

The membrane formation of crystalline poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVAL), poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), and polyamide (Nylon-66) membranes prepared by dry-cast process was studied. Membrane morphologies from crystalline polymers were found to be strongly dependent on the evaporation temperature. At low temperatures, all the casting solution evaporated into a particulate morphology that was governed by the polymer crystallization mechanism. The rise in the evaporation temperature changed EVAL membrane structure from a particulate to a dense morphology. However, as the temperature increased PVDF and Nylon-66 membranes still exhibited particulate morphologies. The membrane structures obtained were discussed in terms of the characteristics of polymer crystallization in the casting solution theoretically. At elevated temperatures the crystallization was restricted for the EVAL membrane because the increase rate in the polymer concentration was fast relative to the time necessary for growth of nuclei. Nonetheless, the time available for PVDF and Nylon-66 with stronger crystalline properties was large enough to form the crystallization-controlled particulate structure that differed in particle size only. In addition, particles in the PVDF membrane were driven together to disappear the boundary, but those in the Nylon-66 membrane exhibited features of linear grain boundary. The difference in particle morphology was attributed to the Nylon-66 with the most strongly crystalline property. Therefore, the kinetic difference in the crystallization rate of the polymer solution play an important role in dominating the membrane structure by dry-cast process.
