The modification and characterization of maleic anhydride-styrene-methyl metacrylate terpolymer by poly(ethylene adipate)

In this study, the functionality of maleic anhydride was utilized in the maleic anhydride-styrene-methyl metacrylate (MAStMMA) terpolymer. First, the polyester of poly(ethylene adipate), PEA, polycondensation copolymer was synthesized from ethylene glycol and adipic acid monomers. PEA was then modified on its maleic anhydride units in the MAStMMA terpolymer which has been synthesized previously. This modified copolymer was characterized by FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy). The viscosimetric and thermomechanical characterization of MAStMMA terpolymer and its modified copolymer were also performed and the results were compared. The modified copolymer obtained was found to be more elastic and more soluble, and had lower viscosity and density.     

Polymeric positive-temperature-coefficient materials: dynamic curing effect

The object of this work was to prepare high-density polyethylene (HDPE)/ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymer (EPDM)/conductive carbon black (CB) composites by dynamic curing and to characterize the positive-temperature-coefficient (PTC) performances of the composites.EPDM and dicumyl peroxide were preblended in a research mill. The roll-milled strands were blended with HDPE and CB in a Haake mixer. The sheet resistivity and morphology of the HDPE/EPDM/CB composites with or without the dynamic curing process were investigated. It was concluded that the dynamically cured blends exhibit better PTC performance than the simple blends without dynamic curing. The effects of shear intensity and dicumyl peroxide content during the dynamic curing process were discussed for the PTC characteristics of the HDPE/EPDM/CB composites.     

Poly(acrylate‐b‐styrene‐b‐isobutylene‐b‐styrene‐b‐acrylate) Block Copolymers via Carbocationic and Atom Transfer Radical Polymerizations

A series of polyacrylate‐polystyrene‐polyisobutylene‐polystyrene‐polyacrylate (X‐PS‐PIB‐PS‐X) pentablock terpolymers (X=poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA), poly(butyl acrylate) (PBA), or poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)) was prepared from poly (styrene‐b‐isobutylene‐b‐styrene) (PS‐PIB‐PS) block copolymers (BCPs) using either a Cu(I)Cl/1,1,4,7,7‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) or Cu(I)Cl/tris[2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine (Me₆TREN) catalyst system. The PS‐PIB‐PS BCPs were prepared by quasiliving carbocationic polymerization of isobutylene using a difunctional initiator, followed by the sequential addition of styrene, and were used as macroinitiators for the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl acrylate (MA), n‐butyl acrylate (BA), or methyl methacrylate (MMA). The ATRP of MA and BA proceeded in a controlled fashion using either a Cu(I)Cl/PMDETA or Cu(I)Cl/Me₆TREN catalyst system, as evidenced by a linear increase in molecular weight with conversion and low PDIs. The polymerization of MMA was less controlled. ¹H‐NMR spectroscopy was used to elucidate pentablock copolymer structure and composition. The thermal stabilities of the pentablock copolymers were slightly less than the PS‐PIB‐PS macroinitiators due to the presence of polyacrylate or polymethacrylate outer block segments. DSC analysis of the pentablock copolymers showed a plurality of glass transition temperatures, indicating a phase separated material.     

沉淀法制备EPDM-g-MAH/CaCO_3复合材料及其性能的表征

提供了三元乙丙橡胶(EPDM)交联的一种方法.以二甲苯为溶剂,溶液法制备马来酸酐(MAH)接枝EPDM,然后向溶液中加入适量碳酸钙(CaCO3),与已接枝的马来酸酐(MAH)反应.待反应完全后,滴加丙酮作为沉淀剂,沉淀物真空干燥,制得EPDM-g-MAH/CaCO3弹性体复合材料.溶解、溶胀及拉伸性能测试结果表明,复合材料样品已形成有效的交联,且材料的抗张强度、断裂伸长率和模量均得到较大幅度的提高,当CaCO3含量达到体系总重的20%时,复合材料呈现最佳力学性能.上述实验结果是因为碱性的CaCO3的Ca2+可以与接枝在EPDM上的MAH发生配合反应,进而成为EPDM的交联中心,形成有效交联,从而促进了EPDM机械性能的提高,ATR-FTIR和TGA的测试结果被用于证实上述观点.     

Regular conjugated terpolymers comprising two different acceptors and bithiophene donor in repeating group: Effect of strong and weak acceptors on semiconducting properties

Diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)‐based terpolymers—P(DPP‐TPyT) and P(DPP‐T3MTT)—bearing bithiophene donating groups and weak accepting units such as pyridine (Py) or methyl thiophene‐3‐carboxylate (3MT), in the polymer backbone, were successfully synthesized. Although the two polymers had similar physical and electrochemical properties, grazing incidence X‐ray diffraction patterns of P(DPP‐TPyT) and P(DPP‐T3MTT) showed mixed and edge‐on orientations, respectively, in thermally annealed films. Accordingly, the P(DPP‐T3MTT) showed twice the hole mobility of P(DPP‐TPyT) in a thin‐film transistor, and a blended film of P(DPP‐T3MTT) and [6,6]‐phenyl‐C71‐butyric acid methyl ester (PC₇₁BM) showed better power conversion efficiency in a polymer solar cell. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis of a model cyclic triblock terpolymer of styrene,isoprene, and methyl methacrylate

The synthesis of a model cyclic triblock terpolymer [cyclic(S‐b‐I‐b‐MMA] of styrene (S), isoprene (I), and methyl methacrylate (MMA) was achieved by the end‐to‐end intramolecular amidation reaction of the corresponding linear α,ω‐amino acid precursor [S‐b‐I‐b‐MMA] under high‐dilution conditions. The linear precursor was synthesized by the sequential anionic polymerization of S, I, and MMA with 2,2,5,5‐tetramethyl‐1‐(3‐lithiopropyl)‐1‐aza‐2,5‐disilacyclopentane as an initiator and amine generator and 4‐bromo‐1,1,1‐trimethoxybutane as a terminator and carboxylic acid generator. The separation of the unreacted linear polymer from the cyclic terpolymer was facilitated by the transformation of the unreacted species into high molecular weight polymers by the evaporation of the reaction solvent and the continuation of the reaction under high‐concentration conditions. The intermediate materials and the final cyclic terpolymer, characterized by size exclusion chromatography, vapor pressure osmometry, thin‐layer chromatography, IR and NMR spectroscopy, exhibited high molecular weight and compositional homogeneity. Dilute‐solution viscosity measurements were used as an additional proof of the cyclic structure. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 40: 1476–1483, 2002     

Mechanical,Thermal, and Rheological Properties of EPDM-graft-methyl Methacrylate and Styrene (EPDM-g-MS)/Methyl Methacrylate-Styrene Copolymer (MS Resin) Blends

EPDM-graft-methyl methacrylate and styrene (EPDM-g-MS) were synthesized by solution graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene (St) onto ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM). EPDM-g-MS/MS resin blends (MES) tht were prepared by melt blending EPDM-g-MS and methyl methacrylate-styrene copolymer (MS resin). The mechanical properties, compatibility, thermal stabilities and rheological properties of MES were studied by the pendulum impact tester and the tension tester, differential scanning calorimetric (DSC), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), and the capillary rheometry, respectively. The results showed that EPDM-g-MS had an excellent toughening effect on MS resin; the notched Izod impact strength of MES reached 20.7 kJ/m² when EPDM content in MES was 25 wt%, about 14 times that of MS resin. EPDM-g-MS and MS resin were partially compatible, and the compatibility increased with an increasing MMA/St ratio of EPDM-g-MS. MES had excellent heat-resistance, which increased as the EPDM content in MES and MMA/St ratio of EPDM-g-MS rose. MES melt flow confirmed pseudoplastic flow characteristics. The apparent viscosity (η _a ) of MES decreased with an increasing shearing rate (γ) and temperature, but increased with an increasing EPDM content in MES and MMA/St ratio of EPDM-g-MS. The flow activation energy of MES was lower than that of MS resin.     

A new periodic pattern with five‐neighbored domain packing from ABC triblock terpolymer/B homopolymer blend

Self‐assembled structures from poly(isoprene‐b‐styrene‐b‐2‐vinylpyridine)(ISP)/styrene homopolymer blend were investigated. Five terpolymers whose total molecular weight, M, is in the narrow range of 121k < M < 214k, and volume fractions of the center block polystyrenes, ?_S, are similar at around 0.55, were prepared as parent block terpolymers. Their ?_P/?_I ratios, used as an indicator of asymmetry, are varied in the range 0.32 < ?_P/?_I < 2.46. Three low‐molecular weight styrene homopolymers with molecular weights of 3k, 9k, and 12k, respectively, were mixed with those block terpolymers to produce blends with almost constant styrene content within the range 0.65 < ?_S < 0.68. Both ISP/S(3k) and ISP/S(12k) blend series show a morphological transition from tetragonally packed cylinders (TPC) to double hexagonal structure (DHS) with hexagonally arrayed polyisoprene cylinders, each surrounded by six thin cylinders as satellites. If one focuses on ISP‐III(150k)/S blends whose ?_P/?_I is 0.88, TPC for ISP‐III/S(3k) was transformed to DHS for ISP‐III/S(12k), evidently due to the molecular weight effect of the added homopolymer. Finally a new periodic pattern, having P cylinders surrounded by five I cylinders each, has been discovered from ISP‐III/S(9k) at overall composition of ?_I/?_S/?_P = 0.17/0.68/0.15 and polystyrene block/styrene homopolymer ratio of w_S(b)/w_S(h) = 1.4. This structure was confirmed to possess hexagonal symmetry with larger unit cell than regular patterns ever known by X‐ray diffraction experiment. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.
