Novel poly(aryl ether nitrile ketone) foams and the influence of copolymer structure on the foaming result

Novel poly(aryl ether nitrile ketone) foams were prepared through the batch foaming method with supercritical CO₂ as the blowing agent. Both temperature‐induced and pressure‐induced foaming methods were conducted to examine the influence of nitrile groups on the foaming result. The results indicated that nitrile groups influenced the foaming result by affecting both the viscoelasticity and CO₂ absorption of the polymers. In addition, the CO₂ solubility of the polymers increased with increasing CN content presumably because of the Lewis acid–base nature of the interaction between the CO₂ molecules and the nitrile groups. The cell growth process was assessed by analyzing the influence of foaming temperature and foaming time on the cell morphology. Nanocellular foams with a minimum size of 30–50 nm were achieved by the temperature‐induced foaming method. Moreover, highly expanded foams with a maximum expansion ratio of 23.6 were obtained by the pressure‐induced foaming method. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry

Elevated temperature impact on performance of Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic dielectrics

The need for electronics to operate at temperatures of 200°C and above continues to grow. These applications include avionics, aerospace, automotive, downhole drilling, mining, and many others. To satisfy this demand, a significant amount of research and development has been conducted. Despite the efforts, the number of new electronic components designed specifically for high-temperature operation is still relatively limited. In Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) packages, LTCC materials are generally used as the host media for a number of pre-fabricated semiconductor components. As a result, reliability of the entire LTCC package largely depends on the performance of the least robust component. Ferro A6M-E and Ferro L8 are the two well-established and recognized LTCC dielectrics widely used for mid and high frequency LTCC applications, including several high reliability aerospace and defense applications that require demanding Mil-Spec qualifications. This study is our first attempt to characterize and understand basic high-temperature dielectric properties of these two commercial LTCC materials. The secondary objective is to initiate a dialogue in attempt to establish reliability requirements for LTCC packages dedicated for high-temperature operation.

Transformation of metallic polymer precursor into nanosized HfTaC2 ceramics

Polymeric precursor for HfTaC₂ ceramic was prepared by coordination reaction between metal alkoxides and acetylacetone, subsequent hydrolysis, and blend with oligomeric novolac carbon sources. The phase analysis and microstructure study were conducted using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It showed that after pyrolyzed at 1450 °C for 90 min, HfTaC₂ was obtained with particle size ~50 nm and uniform elemental distribution. Phase transition from precursor to ceramic was studied by in situ XRD measurements at temperatures from 800 to 1200 °C. In the early stage, oxide solid solution Hf₆Ta₂O₁₇ was firstly detected at ~950 °C, followed by Ta₂O₅ and TaO. As temperature was raised, signals for TaO and Hf₆Ta₂O₁₇ gradually weakened and disappeared, while those for other phases strongly strengthened. Furthermore, formation of Hf_xTa_yC_z solid solution was monitored and confirmed by peak migration during 1300 °C isothermal treatment. When the sample was pyrolyzed at 1450 °C, solid solution Hf_xTa_yC_z was detected at different holding time. Phase structure at 90 min was the closest to standard HfTaC₂ with particle size D_v (90) ~ 200 nm.     

Effects of Ti,Y, and Hf additions on the thermal properties of ZrB2

Reactive hot pressing was utilized to synthesize and densify four ZrB₂ ceramics with impurity contents low enough to avoid obscuring the effects of dopants on thermal properties. Nominally pure ZrB₂ had a thermal conductivity of 141 ± 3 W/m K at 25 °C. Additions of 3 at% of Ti, Y, or Hf decreased the thermal conductivity by 20 %, 30 %, and 40 %, respectively. The thermal conductivity of (Zr,Hf)B₂ was similar to ZrB₂ synthesized from commercial powders containing the natural abundance of Hf as an impurity. This is the first study to demonstrate that Ti and Y additions decrease the thermal conductivity of ZrB₂ ceramics and report intrinsic values for thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity of ZrB₂ containing transition metal additions. Previous studies were unable to detect these effects because the natural abundance of Hf present masked the effects of these additions.

高应力下花岗岩抗剪强度参数特征试验研究

为促进深部矿产资源的安全高效开采,基于取自程潮铁矿西区-395m水平的主要围岩花岗岩的试件,通过伺服试验系统开展高应力下的常规三轴压缩强度试验,研究花岗岩的破坏、强度和参数特征。研究结果表明:1)随着围压的增加,花岗岩的破坏形式由剪切破坏逐渐向剪切劈裂复合型破坏转变,破坏形态由单一破坏断面逐渐转变为多破坏断面,破坏断裂角逐渐减小。2)花岗岩的三轴强度和抗剪强度与围压的关系在低围压下基本均呈线性,在高围压下则均呈上凸的非线性。3)花岗岩抗剪强度参数具有明显的围压效应特征,具体表现为凝聚力和内摩擦角随着围压的增加分别呈逐渐增大和减小的趋势。结合Hoek-Brown准则对瞬态抗剪强度参数的确定进行了初探,结果表明参数推导值的变化趋势符合参数试验规律,但推导值与试验值存在一定的差异,说明Hoek-Brown准则在表征高应力下岩石三轴强度的非线性上仍存在局限,有待进一步研究。     

Liquid‐Filling Polydimethylsiloxane Composites with Enhanced Triboelectric Performance for Flexible Nanogenerators

Material functionalization of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) plays an important role in TENG's electric performance for sustainable energy harvesting. In this work, a method for improving polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composites triboelectric performance has been proposed, via filling high dielectric constant liquid (instead of solids) into PDMS matrix. The improvement is attributed to the high dielectric constant liquid in PDMS matrix that reduced the effective thickness of PDMS and increased the dielectric constant of PDMS composite synchronously. At 50% filling ratio (PDMS‐HD50), the triboelectric performance exhibits an enhancement of 4.5‐fold in output voltage and 3.9‐fold in output current as compared to pure PDMS. The results, besides higher transparency, are superior to the results from traditional solid dielectric constant doping materials like BaTiO₃ nanoparticle in PDMS. This work has proved potentials of dielectric liquid filling materials in fabricating TENGs and could be a guidance for exploring new liquid filling materials.     

Tertiary‐amine‐free,non‐planar,sulfone‐containing,tetrafunctional epoxy and its application as a high temperature matrix

Non‐amine‐derived tetrafunctional epoxies have several advantages over the amine‐derived N,N,N′,N′‐tetraglycidyl‐4,4′‐diaminodiphenyl methane (TGDDM) in high temperature applications. Although two non‐amine‐derived tetrafunctional epoxies were developed in our laboratory, further improvements in toughness using less loading amount is still desirable. Thus, a tertiary‐amine‐free, non‐planar and triphenylmethane‐containing tetrafunctional epoxy (STFE) with a sulfone spacer was synthesized. When it was mixed with diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and cured with 4,4′‐diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS), both thermal and mechanical performances outperformed TGDDM. Moreover, STFE modified system shows the highest toughness (35.7 kJ m^–2) among three amine‐free and triphenylmethane‐containing epoxies at merely 5 wt% loading. Molecular simulation and thermomechanical analysis results suggest that the improved mechanical properties could be related to the geometry of the molecule and larger free volume. Despite a marginal drop in T_g, the thermal degradation temperature is better than that of TGDDM/DDS. In addition, the moisture resistance of STFE/DGEBA/DDS is much better than that of TGDDM/DDS. Thus, STFE modified DGEBA could be a potential replacement for TGDDM in some high temperature applications. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry
