Abstract: | The filming process of polystyrene nanolatex (NPS) particles was studied by a combination of various methods. For a constant annealing time of 1 h, the AFM images showed that the deformation and interdiffusion temperatures of NPS particles were ca. 90 and 100-110 degrees C, respectively. In spin-lattice relaxation measurements of solid state NMR, it is found that T1L, T1S, and PL increased significantly after annealing at 90 and 100 degrees C for 1 h. DSC results showed that there was a exothermic peak near Tg after annealing for 1 h at the elected temperatures below 95 degrees C; otherwise, the exothermic peak disappeared after annealing at 100 degrees C or above. The apparent density of NPS increased suddenly in the temperature range of 90-110 degrees C. The results indicated that the macromolecules are highly constrained in NPS particles, leading to higher conformational energy, with more free volume and segments less restricted, which are the driving forces for the particles sintering at a lower temperature compared to the micro-PS particles with larger diameter. |
