Use of flow microcalorimetry and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis for probing interphase structure in poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b-styrene)/magnesium hydroxide composites

Interactions between magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)₂ particles (both untreated and treated with 16-methyl heptadecanoic acid (isostearic acid)) and low molar mass poly(styrene) (PS) and poly(butadiene) (PB) have been studied by flow microcalorimetry (FMC) and have been related to the interphase structure in poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b-styrene) (SBS)/Mg(OH)₂ composites using dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). The FMC studies revealed that both polymers adsorbed strongly onto an untreated magnesium hydroxide surface though the PB showed greater irreversible adsorption from the heptane carrier fluid. Diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (DRIFTS) studies on filler samples removed from the FMC cell after the adsorption-desorption cycle confirmed strong polymer filler interaction. Adsorption of the low molar mass samples of PS and PB onto a pre-adsorbed monolayer of isostearic acid on Mg(OH)₂ resulted in a very significant reduction in polymer adsorption activity due to blockage of adsorption sites. DMTA studies revealed that strong adsorption of PS and PB blocks of SBS onto untreated filler in composites containing 60% w/w Mg(OH)₂ gave rise to phase mixing that led to an 18 °C reduction in the T _g of the PS phase relative to that in the unfilled matrix. However, in equivalent composites based on isostearic acid treated filler a smaller reduction (10 °C) was observed, therefore reflecting reduced filler-matrix interaction and reduced phase mixing.     

Preparation of Al(OH)3/Acrylic Copolymer Latex by Emulsion Polymerization

The Al(OH)₃/acrylic copolymer latexes were synthesized through the emulsion polymerization of acrylic monomers, butyl acrylate and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate in the presence of surface-functionalized Al(OH)₃ filler particles. The polymerization was stabilized by polyoxyethylene (50) nonyl phenyl ether (NP-1050, nonionic surfactant) and ammonium (POE) alkyl aryl ether sulfate (EU-S133D, anionic surfactant) to produce stable composite latexes. The improved compatibility of Al(OH)₃ surface with acrylic monomers was achieved by the modification with 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (γ-MPS). Transmission electron microscopy showed that nano-sized Al(OH)₃ particles were slightly agglomerated in the copolymer latex. When pristine Al(OH)₃ was used as a filler or γ-MPS-modified Al(OH)₃ particles were added above 30 wt% with respect to monomers, unstable latexes were obtained, which were partially precipitated out on standing for prolonged time. The flame retardation effect was not apparent with the incorporation of Al(OH)₃ in the latexes by 30 wt% as shown by LOI test.

镍负载硅酸铝催化剂上丙烯齐聚反应 3: 镍离子与丙烯分子的相互作用

为了探明在Ni(II)/SiO2-Al2O3催化剂上丙烯齐聚反应诱导期的成因及活性中心的本质, 考察了反应过程中镍离子与丙烯分子的相互作用, 发现反应诱导期随着催化剂预抽空温度的升高而缩短, 也随着丙烯预处理及反应温度的升高而缩短。用ESR、XPS法跟踪考察发现, 随着丙烯在催化剂上反应的进行, 首先Ni(II)被丙烯还原成Ni(I)离子。之后, 丙烯与Ni(I)配位形成不饱和配位离子, 形成齐聚反应表面活性中间体, 并且在反应过程中, 二、三聚产物也可与Ni(I)离子配位, 形成三、、四聚反应面活性中间体。结果表明在Ni(II)/SiO2-Al2O3催化剂上Ni(I)离子是丙烯齐聚反应的活性中心。

AN EVA/UNMODIFIED NANO-MAGNESIUM HYDROXIDE/SILICONE RUBBER NANOCOMPOSITE WITH SYNERGISTIC FLAME RETARDANCY

A novel EVA/unmodified nano-magnesium hydroxide(NMH)/silicone rubber ternary nanocomposite was prepared by using a special compound flame retardant of NMH and silicone rubber(CFR).The flammability of the ternary composite was studied by cone calorimeter test(CCT).Synergistic effect on flame retardancy was found between silicone rubber and NMH.EVA/CFR ternary nanocomposite showed the lowest peak heat release rate(PHRR)and mass loss rate (MLR)among the samples of virgin EVA,EVA composites.The synergistic flame retardancy of silicone rubber and NMH in EVA system is attributed to the enhanced char layers in the condensed phase that prevents the heat and mass transfer in the fire.
