Sharkskin mechanism of high‐impact polystyrene (HIPS) and rheological behavior of HIPS/TiO2 composites

The rheological behaviors of high‐impact polystyrene (HIPS) and HIPS/TiO₂ composites were investigated by use of a rheometer in the present article. HIPS exhibited a constant critical stress of the sharkskin in various temperatures, and the analysis indicated that the mechanism of sharkskin of HIPS was wall–slip and its special temperature dependency was determined by weak wall–melt adsorption. The experimental results also showed that the introduction of TiO₂ into HIPS only slightly influenced the apparent viscosity (η_a) of the composites. Moreover, TiO₂ exhibited an unusual effect on the non‐Newtonian index of the composites at high shear rate. Both phenomena indicated the increase of inner free volume induced by TiO₂ in molecularly rigid HIPS. Moreover, it was noteworthy that a featured stress could be used to label the dispersion of TiO₂ in the HIPS matrix, and the numeric affinity of this featured stress and the critical stress of sharkskin revealed that both processes were relevant to the same molecular relaxation. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

保护胶体稳定的丙烯酸酯乳液流变性

分别采用常规乳化剂和羟乙基纤维素为保护胶体制备丙烯酸酯乳液。通过TEM分别观察乳胶粒的形态。利用流变仪测定剪切速率（Ds）-剪切应力（τ）关系、剪切速率（Ds）-黏度（η）关系。结果表明：采用羟乙基纤维素为保护胶体制备的乳液与常规乳液具有不同结构，该结构使其乳液体系流变性能不同。在相同剪切速率下，保护胶体制备的丙烯酸酯乳液的剪切力明显大于常规乳液的剪切力，该乳液在一定剪切速率范围内有剪切稀化现象。     

Physical properties of polycaproamide/cationic dyeable poly(ethylene terephthalate) polyblended fibers

Polycaproamide (PCA) and cationic dyeable poly(ethylene terephthalate) (CDP) polymers were blended mechanically (in ratios of 75/25, 50/50, and 25/75) in a melt twin‐screw extruder to prepare three PCA/CDP polyblended materials. The blends of PCA and CDP were spun into fibers. The molar ratio of dimethyl 5‐sulfoisophthalate sodium salt for CDP was 2%. This study investigated the physical properties of PCA/CDP polyblended fibers with nuclear magnetic resonance, gel permeation chromatography, gas chromatography, potentiometer, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), extension stress–strain measurements, density gradient analysis, and rheometry. The experimental results of DSC proved that PCA and CDP formed an immiscible system. In an SEM image of a 50/50 PCA/CDP blend, the morphological aggregation of a larger size, from 3 to 5 μm in diameter, was observed. The rheological behavior of the PCA/CDP polyblended materials exhibited negative‐deviation blends, and the 50/50 blend of the PCA/CDP polyblended fibers showed a minimum tenacity value. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Rheology of polyflavonoid tannin–formaldehyde reactions before and after gelling. II. Hardener influence and comparison of different tannins

Good correspondence of the gel‐time values obtained by two different methods, G′ = G″ and 1/η₀→0, was observed for different types of natural and modified tannin extracts. The pH presents the predominant effect on both the activation energies and the gel times observed, while the proportion of a paraformaldehyde hardener has a much lesser effect on these parameters. The rate constants of the different phases of the reaction of polycondensation with formaldehyde, both before and after the gel point, were obtained for the six commercial tannin extracts tested. The viscoelastic properties of the different tannins/formaldehyde gels were measured. The gel stiffness S, relaxation coefficient n, and relaxation time λ were determined and their dependence on the proportion of the formaldehyde hardener, on the temperature, and on the type of tannin was determined. The gel stiffness S appears to be influenced considerably by the proportion of the formaldehyde hardener. Its value decreased as the percentage of the hardener increased: This was due to early network immobilization and the resulting lower level of crosslinking resulting from it. The influence on S of the temperature is not very pronounced. The relaxation coefficient n appears to depend mainly on the reactivity of the tannin used: The faster the reactivity, the higher was the value of n. This appears to be valid exclusively in tannin extracts where the colloidal state is still present, while it is not valid in extracts where the colloidal state was eliminated by, for example, solvent extraction. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Margarines: A rheological study

Time-dependent flow properties of both commercial and pilot plant-made margarines were characterized under steady shear. Flow curves were fitted to the kinetic expression τ = τ _i +a e ^−k1t +b e ^−k2t . A first-order kinetic model did not describe the observed destruction process of the margarine structure in an adequate manner. In the proposed model, two structures with different destruction rates are postulated. Each structure contributes to a part of the shear stress necessary to deform the margarine sample. The parameters τ _i a andb are temperature-dependent. Decreasing temperatures produce an exponential increase of τ _i , a linear increase ofb and an increase ofa up to a point beyond which it remains constant. A physical interpretation of the model is proposed. The role of the aqueous phase was also studied. Greater hardness was detected at higher water content. Parameter τ _i increased, at any selected temperature, with increasing aqueous phase content of the sample. Parametera increased with decreasing temperatures and higher water content. On the other hand, parameterb was not affected by the amount of aqueous phase. This kinetic model could be employed to perform studies on the influence of different parameters of margarine formulation on its rheologic behavior.     

Rheological study on O−carboxymethylated chitosan/cellulose polyblends from LiCl/N,N‐dimethylacetamide solution

An O?carboxymethylated chitosan (O? CMCh) water solution (I) and N,N‐dimethylacetamide (DMAc) emulsion (II) were blended with a cellulose LiCl/DMAc solution, and corresponding polyblends (Polyblends I and II) were obtained. The rheology of the three fluids, that is, the cellulose solution and Polyblends I and II, was investigated. The cellulose solution was characterized by a power‐law fluid. When an O‐CMCh water solution or DMAc emulsion was added to the cellulose solution, the power‐law curve was preserved. The power‐law indexes (n) of all three fluids increased along with the temperature. Polyblend I displays an n close to but a little higher than that of the cellulose solution, while Polyblend II shows a much higher power index than those of the other two fluids. The values of the apparent viscosity (η_a) for all the three fluids are close and decrease along with an increase in the temperature. Adding O‐CMCh microparticles into Polyblends I and II results in a decrease in the structural viscosity index (Δη) in comparison to that of the cellulose solution, and this effect is very obvious for Polyblend I. A cellulose solution's Δη declines with the augmentation of temperature, while the Δη's of both Polyblends I and II show minimum values at about 323 K. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Improvement in processability of metallocene polyethylene by ultrasound and binary processing aid

The effect of ultrasonic vibration and binary processing aid in improving the processability of metallocene linear low‐density polyethylene (mLLDPE) was investigated. During extrusion, ultrasonic vibration clearly reduced the die pressure and apparent viscosity of mLLDPE but had only a slight effect on its melt fracture. The effect of diatomite/PEG binary processing aid (BPA) was excellent in reducing the viscosity and eliminating the sharkskin fracture of mLLDPE. The effect of ultrasonic vibration and binary processing aid in improving the processability of mLLDPE was synergetic. With a combination of ultrasonic vibration and a small amount of processing aid, the flowability of mLLDPE was further improved, and the critical shear rate for the onset of sharkskin fracture was increased. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of DAG on milk fat TAG crystallization

The effect of milk fat and standard DAG on the crystallization behavior of milk fat TAG (MF-TAG) was investigated. When milk fat DAG were added to MF-TAG at the 0.1 wt% level, crystallization was delayed. Racemic purity was shown to be an important factor in the ability of DAG to influence TAG crystallization. Only sn-1,2 isomers of blends of MF-TAG with 0.1 wt% of the racemic mixtures of dipalmitin and diolein increased the activation free energy barrier to MF-TAG nucleation (ΔG _c ) and delayed the subsequent crystallization process by increasing the crystallization induction time (τ_SFC) determined from solid fat content-time measurements. Although crystallization kinetics were affected, the properties of the resulting network structures remained unchanged upon addition of milk fat minor components at the 0.1 wt% level
