Resins containing plant oil‐based cross‐linkers were studied with two reactive diluents: a styrene and an acrylated fatty acid methyl ester‐based (AFAME) monomer. Acrylated epoxidized soybean oil and maleinated castor oil monoglyceride were bio‐based cross‐linkers used. The viscosity and mechanical properties of the resulting polymers were measured and analyzed. Both bio‐based cross‐linkers prepared using the modified AFAME as diluent had a fairly high viscosity, so blends of AFAME and styrene were needed to meet the viscosity requirements established by the composite industry (<1000 cP at room temperature). In addition, the glass transition temperature (Tg) and stiffness of bio‐based cross‐linker/AFAME polymers were significantly lower than the resin/styrene polymers. Ternary blends of maleinated castor oil monoglyceride with AFAME and styrene improved the mechanical properties to acceptable comparable values (storage modulus at 30°C ~ 1200 MPa and Tg ~ 100°C). The addition of 5 wt% of chemically modified lignin led to an improvement in the mechanical properties of the polymeric matrix but caused an increase in the viscosity. POLYM. ENG.

Bio‐based elastomers used in industry have attracted much attention. We prepared bio‐based engineering polyester elastomer (BEE) nanocomposites by mixing bio‐based engineering polyester elastomers with carbon (CB). The CB/BEE nanocomposites were exposed to an artificial weathering environment for different time periods. Both its aging behavior changes and aging mechanism were investigated in this article. The tensile strength retention rates were each above 90% after aging at 100°C and 125°C for 72 h. CB/BEE nanocomposites exhibited good anti‐aging properties. Furthermore, the chemical changes were detected by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The crosslink density changes during aging of BEE were determined as well. A plausible aging mechanism of BEE was proposed. It can be concluded that the thermal oxidation process gives priority to further crosslinking in the initial period of aging. As the aging time increases, chain scission becomes the dominant element in the subsequent thermal oxidation process. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 40862. 相似文献

Tensile properties and dynamic mechanical thermal properties for polyurethane elastomers extended with N,N′‐ethyleneurea (EU) and 1,4‐butanediol (1,4‐BD) were investigated. Also gel permeation chromatography and extraction experiments for selected elastomers were performed. EU residues were introduced into polyurethane during prepolymer synthesis at 140°C. Such prepolymers with built‐in EU residues were extended with 1,4‐BD for different [NCO]/[OH] molar ratios. The use of EU chain extender produces in general polymers with inferior mechanical properties compared to the typical 1,4‐BD based polyurethanes, although some of the EU‐based polymers show improved strain‐stress parameters. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Miscibility and properties of two atactic poly(methyl methacrylate)‐based blends [containing 10 and 20% of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate)] have been investigated as a function of thermal treatments. Differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis of blends quenched in liquid nitrogen or ice/water, after annealing at T > 190 °C, showed a single glass transition temperature, indicating miscibility of the components for the time‐temperature history. Two glass transition temperatures, equal to those of the pure components, are instead found for blends after annealing at T < 190 °C. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed the homogeneity for the former quenched blends and phase separation for the latter. These results indicate the presence of an upper critical solution temperature (UCST). Tensile experiments, performed on two series of samples annealed at temperatures above and below the UCST, showed that the copolyester induces a decrease of Young's modulus and stresses at yielding and break points, and a marked increase of elongation at break. Differences in tensile properties between the two series of annealed blends are accounted for by the physical state of the components at room temperature after annealing above or below the UCST.

Preparation and properties of hyperbranched poly(amine‐ester) films using acetal cross‐linking units
Novel films based on cross‐linked hyperbranched poly(amine‐ester) (HPAE) were prepared by cross‐linking the terminal hydroxyl groups of HPAE using glutaraldehyde (GA). The cross‐linking process was monitored by measuring the intrinsic viscosity of HPAE/GA in N,N‐dimethylacetamide. The surface structures of the cross‐linked HPAE films obtained from different HPAE/GA ratios were imaged using atom force microscopy, and their properties were characterized in terms of hydrophilicity, solvent swelling, mechanics, and protein adsorption. It was found that the static contact angle was <32.9°, tensile strength was >0.35 MPa, elongation at break was >9.2%, swelling degree was >63% in water, and bovine serum albumin adsorption was relatively low. The results indicate that cross‐linked HPAE films have a strong application potential in many areas. Copyright © 2005 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Two series of polyurethane elastomers were synthesized to investigate what effect does the incorporation of various new chain
extenders have on the mechanical and thermal properties of polyurethane elastomers. The polyurethane soft segments were based
on poly(ε-caprolactone) polyol. The hard segment was based on 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate in combination with 2,5-dimethyl-3-hexine-2,5-diol
(DHD), hexaethylene glycol, glycerin, or castor oil. The results showed that the degradation rate and mechanical properties
of the final products can be controlled through the structure of diol chain extenders or/and hard segment cross-linking present
in the polyurethane elastomers. The DHD-based polyurethane displayed a relatively low glass transition temperature of −57 °C
and a tensile strength of 11–14 MPa and elongation at break of 600–700%. These kinds of materials have potential application
in many domains. 相似文献

Rigid polyurethane foams were successfully prepared by blending up to 70 wt% of two different palm oil‐based bio‐polyols with a petrochemical polyether polyol. The bio‐polyols were synthesized by epoxidation–oxirane ring‐opening process using water (PP102) and diethylene glycol (PP147), respectively. Due to the high viscosity of both bio‐polyols the reactive mixture was heated to start the foaming reaction at about 50 °C. Under these conditions, the gelling reactions speed up as the amount of PP147 increases but slow down to a great extent when PP102 is used. The thermal conductivity of modified foams is higher and the closed cell content lower compared to reference ones, even when the bio‐foams present a lower apparent density. However, all foams exhibit reduced water absorption, excellent dimensional stability and better thermal stability at temperatures up to 400 °C than the control foam. Conversely, their mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties become poorer as the PP147 concentration increases and even more so if PP102 is used instead. PP147 foams containing up to 50% bio‐polyol could be used as a green replacement of petroleum‐based ones in applications where excellent behaviour in compression (the most affected properties) is not fundamental, with the additional advantages of reduced density and increased content of bio‐derived components. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

The polytriazole polyether elastomers were prepared by the propargyl‐terminated ethylene oxide‐tetrahydrofuran [PTP(E‐co ‐T)] prepolymer and the multi‐azide group glycidyl ether with different curing parameter R . The relationship between the network structure, mechanical properties, and crystallization behaviors of the elastomers were investigated by swelling testing, tensile testing machine, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), and in situ wide‐angle X‐ray scattering at 60, 20, and ?40 °C, respectively. The mechanical properties of the polytriazole elastomers exhibited obviously different dependences on R values at different testing temperatures. At 60 and 20 °C, with the increase of R , the tensile stress at breaking gives a parabola going downwards with a maximum at R = 1.1. However, at ?40 °C, the stress exhibited an analogous parabola going upward with a minimum at R = 1.1. The DSC and WAXD results indicated that at 60 and 20 °C, the polytriazole elastomers was amorphous, but at ?40 °C, the polytriazole elastomers were crystallizable and the crystallization capability of the polytriazole elastomers are also observed. Therefore, it can be inferred that at 60 and 20 °C, the mechanical properties of the polyether polytriazole elastomer depend on completeness of the network structures, while the crystallization behavior of the polytriazole elastomers induces its different mechanical properties at ?40 °C. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Novel citric acid‐based polyesters were synthesized by condensation of citric acid, 1,8‐octanediol, and unsaturated monomers such as glycerol 1,3‐diglycerolate diacrylate and bis(hydroxypropylfumarate). Under the synthesis conditions used, the crosslinked elastomeric network exhibited a wide range of mechanical properties. The mechanical properties of acrylated elastomers ranged from 7.4 to 75.9 MPa for Young's modulus, 2.8 to 15.7 MPa for ultimate tensile stress, and 86 to 133% for elongation at break. The mechanical properties of fumarate‐containing elastomers ranged from 16.4 to 38.3 MPa for Young's modulus, 5.5 to 10.2 MPa for ultimate tensile stress, and 218 to 260% for elongation at break, which depended on the content of 1‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidinone. Addition of a secondary crosslink network is a viable method to increase the range of mechanical properties of citric acid‐based biodegradable elastomers. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the elastomers is between ?12.7 and ?1.6°C, confirming that all the elastomers are in a rubbery state at room temperature. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Reactive high vinyl silicone oil (HVSO) was selected to prepare the ceramic silicone rubber composites. The effects of HVSO on the mechanical properties and thermal stabilities of ceramic silicone rubber composites were investigated. The structures of the cross‐linked network of silicone rubber with or without HVSO were studied. The intermolecular space of silicone rubber was enlarged, and the cross‐linked point was concentrated by addition of HVSO, which was demonstrated by cross‐linking densities, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The cross‐linked network model was formed with the slipping of the cross‐linked points along with the silicone rubber chain. Mechanical properties of composites were enhanced by the formation of this cross‐linked network. The tear strength, tensile strength, and elongation at break of the composites were increased by 18.5%, 13.2%, and 37.4% by the adding of 2 phr HVSO, respectively. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.

The processing of cross‐linked polyarylene ether nitrile (PEN), which has a triazine rings structure, has been investigated under different reaction times and temperatures. In this study, the PEN films prepared by the tape‐casting formed the thermally stable triazine rings by catalytic cross‐linking reaction gradually, which was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The chemical cross‐linking reaction occurred as the CN group absorption of PEN at 2221 cm−1 decreased and a new absorption peak, at 1682 cm−1, was observed, and the absorption peak intensity would be progressively larger, with the extension of the processing time. After the formation of cross‐linking networks, the cross‐linking degree and thermal and mechanical properties of the processed films were improved substantially, compared with the untreated films. The film with added ZnCl2 as the catalyst was more rapidly cross‐linked, and its properties were better than that without catalyst at the same treatment conditions. The glass‐transition temperature (Tg) of PEN films processed at 350°C for 4 h (213.65°C) was higher than that of PEN films before the treatment (161°C), and the tensile strength was also improved significantly. The PEN was processed at 350°C for 2 h, whose initial decomposition temperature increases by about 10°C, compared with that of untreated film, at one time. The rheology behavior of the cross‐linked films was processed on dynamic rheometer to monitor and track the process of polymer cross‐linking reaction. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Despite recent significant progress in fabricating tough hydrogels, it is still a challenge to realize high strength, large stretchability, high toughness, rapid recoverability, and good self‐healing simultaneously in a single hydrogel. Herein, Laponite reinforced self‐cross‐linking poly(N‐hydroxyethyl acrylamide) (PHEAA) hydrogels (i.e., PHEAA/Laponite nanocomposite [NC] gels) with dual physically cross‐linked network structures, where PHEAA chains can be self‐cross‐linked by themselves and also cross‐linked by Laponite nanoplatelets, demonstrate integrated high performances. At optimal conditions, PHEAA/Laponite NC gels exhibit high tensile strength of 1.31 MPa, ultrahigh tensile strain of 52.23 mm mm?1, high toughness of 2238 J m?2, rapid self‐recoverability (toughness recovery of 79% and stiffness recovery of 74% at room temperature for 2 min recovery without any external stimuli), and good self‐healing properties (strain healing efficiency of 42%). The work provides a promising and simple strategy for the fabrication of dual physically cross‐linked NC gels with integrated high performances, and helps to expand the fundamentals and applications of NC gels. 相似文献

We report the synthesis of a linear bio‐based polyurethane (bio‐PU) containing furan ring by using renewable polylactide copolymer diol and 2,5‐furandimethanol as a soft segment and chain extender, respectively, in which the reversible crosslinked covalent bonds between hard segments were incorporated via Diels–Alder (D‐A) reaction between the furan ring of the chain extender and bismaleimide (BM) crosslinker. By simply controlling the amount of BM, mechanical properties of the obtained crosslinked bio‐PUs (CBPUs) were varied widely. In particular, the CBPU100 sample shows the highest tensile strength of 10.8 MPa, Young's modulus of 193 MPa, and an elongation of 155%. The differential scanning calorimetry experiments verify the recycle property of the CBPUs by the D‐A/retro‐D‐A reaction at the proper temperature. The thermal recyclability and remolding ability of these materials are demonstrated by two kinds of polymer processing methods, i.e., solution casting and hot‐compression molding. The recycled CBPUs display almost identical elongation and slightly decreased tensile strength compared to the as‐synthesized samples. Furthermore, the CBPUs also exhibit excellent self‐healing ability. Therefore, the resulting CBPUs possess tunable mechanical properties, good thermal recyclability, re‐mending, and self‐healing ability, which makes the bio‐based materials more eco‐friendly. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this article, semi‐interpenetrating polymer network (Semi‐IPNs) based on nitrile rubber (NBR) and poly(methyl methacrylate‐co‐butyl acrylate) (P(MMA‐BA)) were synthesized. The structure and damping properties of the prepared Semi‐IPNs blends were characterized and by fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTG), and tensile mechanical properties. The results showed that interpenetrating network based on P(MMA‐BA) and NBR was successfully obtained, which showed the improved thermal stability compared to NBR/P(MMA‐BA)‐based two‐roll mill blends. Furthermore, Semi‐IPNs showed significantly better the dynamic mechanical properties than that of the two‐roll mill system. With the increasing feed ratio of BA and MMA during the preparation of Semi‐IPNs, the loss peak position for P(MMA‐BA) in NBR/PMMA IPNs shifted to a lower temperature from 20°C to ?17°C, and when NBR in Semi‐IPNs was accounted for 40 wt %, the dynamic mechanical thermal analysis showed that much more advanced damping material with wider temperature range (?30°C < T < 80°C) as tan δ > 0.45 can be achieved. Therefore, it was expected as a promising way to obtain the excellent damping materials with good oil‐resisted properties according the Semi‐IPNs system. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Lignin based thermal‐responsive elastomers were produced by a melt polycondensation reaction with a long alkyl chain hyperbranched poly(ester‐amine‐amide) (B3‐A2‐CB31). The effect of lignin content on elastomers properties was investigated. The thermal and mechanical properties of the copolymers were characterized by DMA, DSC, and TGA. The morphology of the copolymer was examined by SEM. Tensile properties were dominated by HBP <25% lignin content while lignin dominated >25% content. The copolymers glass transition temperature (Tg) increased with lignin content. The elastomer with 30% lignin content demonstrated optimal mechanical properties (tensile strength 5.3 MPa, Young's modulus 8.9 MPa, strain at break 301%, and toughness 1.03 GPa). Thermally stimulated dual shape memory effects (SME) of the copolymers were quantified by cyclic thermomechanical tests. The transition temperature (Ttrans) of the polymer was able to be controlled (room to body temperature) by varying the amount of lignin added which broadens the range to medical applications. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

GAP‐modified nitrocellulose powders were prepared by an internal solution method and applied in cross‐linked modified double base (XLDB) propellants. It was found that GAP‐modified nitrocellulose powders exhibit high round, no bonding between the particles and excellent fluidity. When the amount of GAP increased from 10.0 % to 30.0 %, the median diameter (d50) of powders decreased from 134.53 μm to 94.54 μm. The thermal decomposition process of GAP appeared also in the GAP‐modified nitrocellulose powders, but the thermal decomposition peak temperatures of N3 and the GAP main chain were found to be lower for the 10.0 % and 20.0 % GAP‐modified samples than the corresponding peak temperatures for pure GAP, respectively. The plasticizing properties of GAP‐modified nitrocellulose powders are better than that of pure nitrocellulose powders, and the drop weight impact sensitivity of the modified powders is reduced as the mass ratio of GAP increases. It was experimentally shown that GAP‐modified nitrocellulose powders can improve the mechanical characteristics of the propellant with a maximum tensile strength (σm) between 0.36 MPa<σm< 1.10 MPa and an elongation at maximum tensile strength (εm) between 28.8 %<εm<51.8 % at temperatures of −40, +20 and +50 °C. 相似文献

In this article, flexible nylon 6,6 was reinforced with rigid‐chain aromatic polyamides based on poly(4,4′‐diphenylsulfone terephthalamide) (PSA), poly(p‐diphenyl oxide terephthalamide) (POA), poly(p‐diphenylmethane terephthalamide) (PMA), and isophthaloyl chloride (IPC). Various high molecular weight block copolyamides were synthesized by solution polymerization using p‐aminophenylacetic acid (p‐APA) as a coupling agent. Their thermal properties show that the block copolyamides exhibit higher values of Tg and Tm and better thermal stability than those of nylon 6,6, especially the IPC‐modified nylon 6,6. The order of increased thermal properties of copolyamides is IPC > POA > PMA > PSA. From wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction patterns, it was found that nylon 6,6 has two diffraction peaks, that is, 2θ = 20.5° and 23°, while the multiblock copolymers showed only one at 2θ = 20°, indicating a different crystal structure. It was found that the mechanical properties of the IPC‐modified nylon 6,6 were improved more than those of the semirigid copolyamides. The order of tensile strength was IPC > PSA > PMA > POA, but for elongation, it was POA > PMA > PSA > IPC. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 80: 2167–2175, 2001 相似文献

Triblock copolymer (TCP)‐based thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) were designed via reversible addition–fragmentation chain‐transfer emulsion polymerization. Short isobornyl methacrylate (IM) building blocks in the two ends of molecular chain were incorporated to guarantee the mechanical properties of the TPEs at high temperature (i.e., heat resistance) because of the high glass‐transition temperature (Tg) of poly(isobornyl methacrylate) (PIM; ~180 °C). The microphase separation, tensile properties at different temperatures, dynamic mechanical properties, oil resistance, and thermal stability of the TPEs were extensively characterized. The TPEs had distinct microphase separation with a wide inter‐Tg interval (150–185 °C). The tensile strength and elongation at break of the TPEs decreased with increasing temperature from 25 to 100 °C because of the reduced interactions in the phase domain. Even so, the TPEs had a high elongation at break beyond 200% and little change in the tensile strength even at 100 °C together with a wide quasi‐platform stage between the Tg values in dynamic mechanical analysis; this indicated good heat resistance. Meanwhile, the TPEs had an enhanced oil resistance and a thermal stability higher than 300 °C. These TCP‐based TPEs with heat and oil resistance broaden the application potential in practical fields. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2017 , 134, 45379. 相似文献

In this study, bio‐based hyperbranched ester was synthesized from castor oil. The chemical structure of the bio‐based hyperbranched ester obtained was characterized with Fourier transform infrared and 1H NMR spectra. Soft polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials were prepared via thermoplastic blending at 160 °C using bio‐based hyperbranched ester as plasticizer. The performances including the thermal stability, glass transition temperature (Tg), crystallinity, tensile properties, solvent extraction resistance and volatility resistance of soft PVC materials incorporating bio‐based hyperbranched ester were investigated and compared with the traditional plasticizer dioctyl phthalate (DOP). The results showed that bio‐based hyperbranched ester enhanced the thermal stability of the PVC materials. The Tg of PVC incorporating bio‐based hyperbranched ester was 23 °C, lower than that of PVC/DOP materials at 28 °C. Bio‐based hyperbranched ester showed a better plasticizing effect, solvent extraction resistance and volatility resistance than DOP. The plasticizing mechanism is also discussed. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

The mechanical properties and aging characteristics of blends of ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) were investigated with special reference to the effect of blend ratio and cross‐linking systems. Among the blends, the one with 80/20 EPDM/SBR has been found to exhibit the highest tensile, tear, and abrasion properties at ambient temperature. The observed changes in the mechanical properties of the blends have been correlated with the phase morphology, as attested by scanning electron micrographs (SEMs). The effects of three different cure systems, namely, sulfur (S), dicumyl peroxide (DCP), and a mixed system consisting of sulfur and peroxide (mixed) on the blend properties also were studied. The stress‐strain behavior, tensile strength, elongation at break, and tear strength of the blends were found to be better for the mixed system. The influence of fillers such as high‐abrasion furnace (HAF) black, general‐purpose furnace (GPF) black, silica, and clay on the mechanical properties of 90/10 EPDM/SBR blend was examined. The ozone and water aging studies also were conducted on the sulfur cured blends, to supplement the results from the mechanical properties investigation. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
