Maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene as a coupling agent for polypropylene composites filled with ink‐eliminated waste paper sludge flour

Ink‐eliminated sludge flour (IESF), a waste residue from the recycling treatment of waste paper, is a promising new kind of filler for thermoplastic polymers with a good price/performance ratio and advantages for environmental protection. In this study, high‐impact polypropylene (PP) and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) were chosen as a polymer matrix and a coupling agent, respectively, for the preparation of IESF/PP composites, and the structures and properties of the obtained composites were also investigated. The experimental results revealed that IESF not only induced the crystallization orientation of PP along the b axis but also had a restraining effect on the formation of the β phase during the recrystallization of PP from the melt; the addition of MAPP further strengthened this effect to some extent. In addition, the proper addition of MAPP was helpful for improving the thermal stability of the IESF/PP composites. With the strengthening of the interfacial interaction between the IESF and PP matrix by MAPP, the resultant efficient stress transfer from the PP matrix to the IESF particles led to increased tensile and flexural strength. However, the original greater rigidity of MAPP, with respect to PP, reduced the toughness of the composites and caused some negative effects on the impact strength and the elongation at break. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Influence of PS‐b‐PEO diblock copolymers on the compatibility of syndiotactic polystyrene modified epoxy blends

Homogeneous solutions of syndiotactic polystyrene (sPS) in diglycidylether of bisphenol A (DGEBA), containing 2.5, 5 and 7.5 wt % of thermoplastic with or without 0.5 and 1 wt % of poly(styrene‐b‐ethylene oxide) (PS‐b‐PEO) block copolymer, were polymerized using a stoichiometric amount of an aromatic amine hardener, 4,4′‐methylene bis (3‐chloro‐2,6‐diethylaniline) (MCDEA). The dynamic‐mechanical properties and morphological changes of sPS‐(DGEBA/MCDEA) compatibilized with different amount of PS‐b‐PEO have been investigated in this paper. The addition of the block copolymer produced significant changes in the morphologies generated. The size of the dispersed spherical sPS spherulites does not change significantly, but less spherulites of sPS appeared upon network formation in the systems with compatibilizer, what means that addition of compatibilizer in this system delayed crystallization of sPS in sPS‐(DGEBA/MCDEA) systems and change phase separation mechanism from crystallization‐induced phase separation (CIPS) and reaction‐induced phase separation (RIPS) almost only to RIPS. Moreover, PS‐b‐PEO with higher molecular weight of PS block seems to be a more effective compatibilizer than one with lower molecular weight of PS block. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Fundamental characterization of SBS‐modified asphalt mixed with sulfur

The purpose of this study was to characterize the mechanical behavior of asphalt modified by styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS) and sulfur. Viscosity, microscopy, and rheological tests were conducted to understand the engineering properties of the polymer‐modified asphalt (PMA). Without the addition of sulfur, the polymer‐modified asphalt was microheterogeneous and was made up of two distinct finely interlocked phases, especially at high SBS concentrations. After the addition of sulfur, the PMA was observed to have smaller asphalt domains and a fairly homogeneous dispersion of the asphalt in the SBS matrix. The compatibility between polymer and asphalt produced an elastic network into the asphalt. The addition of sulfur resulted in an excellent elastic system and substantially increased the rheological properties of the PMA. Because of the colloidal nature of asphalt cements, their engineering properties were greatly improved because of the reinforcement of the SBS polymer and the physical‐chemical interaction between SBS and asphalt. The difference in the softening point between the top and bottom layers decreased significantly, and elastic recovery increased when was sulfur was present. A viscoelastic model was examined and shown to be appropriate for predicting the rheological properties ofthe asphalt–SBS blend mixed with sulfur. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Rheological properties and compatibility of NR/EPDM and NR/brominated EPDM blends

Ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymer (EPDM) was modified by bromination reaction. Blending the resulting brominated EPDM with natural rubber (STR5L) and blending the unmodified EPDM with STR5L at various compositions were carried out. The rheological properties of the blends were investigated using a capillary extrusion. Shear flow curves of the pure rubbers and their blends illustrated the pseudoplastic property as shear thinning behavior with a power law index n < 1. True shear viscosity of all blends showed the negative deviation in relation to their additive values. Rheological behavior and two T_g's found from the DSC thermograms at all blend compositions indicated blend incompatibility for both sets of blends. The incompatibility of the vulcanized blends was also found by measuring the spin–spin relaxation time T₂ by pulsed NMR. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 89: 837–847, 2003
