Polymorphism in poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)/clay nanocomposites was studied. Poly(vinylidene fluoride)/clay nanocomposites were prepared with melt intercalation. The samples were characterized with X‐ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The nanocomposite exhibited the β form. Thermal annealing performed at 125 and 185°C showed that the β form of PVDF was stable. The stability of the β form of PVDF was ascertained from these studies. The β form of PVDF in the nanocomposites could be due to crystallization in the constrained phase. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 89: 2036–2040, 2003  相似文献

The effects of melt‐spinning and cold‐drawing parameters on the formation of β‐phase crystallinity in poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) fibers and ways of increasing such crystallinity were studied. Fibers were melt‐spun with four different melt draw ratios (MDRs) and were subsequently cold‐drawn at different draw ratios (λ). The maximum λ value in cold drawing was dependent on the MDR used in melt spinning. The crystalline structure of the fibers was studied mainly with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that the degree of crystallinity in the fibers was determined by the MDR and that before cold drawing the crystalline structure of the fibers was predominantly in the α form. By cold drawing, α‐phase crystallites could be transformed into the β phase. It was established that, under certain conditions of melt spinning and cold drawing, PVDF fibers of up to 80% crystallinity, mainly in the β form, could be prepared. It was further proposed that fibers spun at a sufficiently high MDR consist to a large extent of extended‐chain crystals, and this greatly affects the melting point of PVDF. Thus, DSC melting‐point data were shown to be insufficient for determining the crystalline phase of PVDF. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010  相似文献

Two novel structures of adamantane‐modified benzoxazines were synthesized from 4‐(1‐adamantyl)‐phenol through the incorporation of adamantane as a pendant group into the polybenzoxazine backbone. Both 1H‐NMR and Fourier transform infrared spectra were used to characterize these structures. The rigid structure of the adamantane tended to hinder the chain mobility (boat anchor effect) and substantially enhanced the thermal properties, including the glass‐transition temperature and decomposition temperature, especially for poly(6‐adamantyl‐3‐methyl‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐1,3‐benzoxazine). In the poly(6‐adamantyl‐3‐phenyl‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐1,3‐benzoxazine) system, however, the opposite result for the glass‐transition temperature was observed and it was interpreted as lower crosslinking density. The phenyl group was bulkier than the methyl group, and the movement of the molecular chain was hindered between bridging points during the curing process; this resulted in a lower crosslinking density and a lower glass‐transition temperature than those of poly(6‐adamantyl‐3‐methyl‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐1,3‐benzoxazine). © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This article reports on the morphology, melting and crystallization behavior, thermal stability, tensile properties, and thermal conductivity of phase‐change materials (PCM) for thermal energy storage. These materials were based on a soft Fischer‐Tropsch paraffin wax (PCM) blended with low‐density polyethylene, linear low‐density polyethylene, and high‐density polyethylene. These immiscible blends were melt‐mixed with copper (Cu) microparticles (up to 15 vol %) to improve the thermal conductivity in the matrix material. The presence of the Cu microparticles in the PCMs did not significantly change the crystallization behavior, thermal stability, or tensile properties of the blend composites in comparison with the corresponding polyethylene/wax blends and polyethylene/Cu composites. The observed differences were related to the fact that the wax seemed to have a higher affinity for the Cu particles than any of the polyethylenes, and so it crystallized as a layer around the Cu particles. The thermal conductivity of the samples increased almost linearly with increasing Cu content, but the samples had slightly lower values than the corresponding polyethylene/Cu composites, probably because of the lower thermal conductivity of the wax. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) nanocomposite based on polypropylene (PP), acrylonitrile–butadiene rubber (NBR), and a nanoclay (NC) was prepared in a laboratory mixer with a 54/40/6 weight ratio. The effects of NC on the thermal properties, crystalline structure, and phase morphology of the TPE nanocomposite were studied in this work. The results obtained from the nonisothermal crystallization of PP, PP/NBR, and PP/NBR/NC, which was carried out with differential scanning calorimetry, revealed that the overall rate of crystallization of PP decreased with the addition of NBR to PP and increased when NC was incorporated into the nanocomposite. In addition, the crystallite size distribution was more uniform for the PP phase crystallized in the nanocomposite versus the PP itself. Also, although the PP in the reference blend (PP/NBR) crystallized only in the α form, the crystalline structure of the PP incorporated into the nanocomposite was a mixture of α‐ and γ‐crystalline forms. The effects of NC on the phase morphology of PP/NBR blends prepared with three different cooling methods (quenching in liquid nitrogen, cooling between two metal plates at room temperature, and molding at a high temperature in a hot press) were studied. For the samples quenched in liquid nitrogen or cooled between metal plates, a particulate–cocontinuous morphology formed. However, for the samples prepared under a hot press, a laminar‐like morphology was observed. In all three cases, a similar particulate–cocontinuous morphology formed for the reference blend, but the rubber inclusions were always smaller than those of the TPE nanocomposite. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The melting behavior of polyglycolide (PGA) with eight other biodegradable polymers was investigated to determine whether forming a blend could be used as a method of lowering the melting point of PGA. Blends were prepared by melt processing in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) pans and were then analyzed by DSC. In every case, a comparison of the blend DSC plot with those of the two individual components showed that the melting behavior of PGA remained unchanged by blending. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Miscibility and morphology of poly(ethylene 2,6‐naphthalate)/poly(pentamethylene terephthalate)/poly(ether imide) (PEN/PPT/PEI) blends were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), optical microscopy (OM), proton nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (1H‐NMR), and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD). OM and DSC results from ternary blends revealed the immiscibility of PEN/PPT/PEI blends, but ternary blends of all compositions were phase‐homogeneous following heat treatment at 300°C for over 60 min. Annealing samples at 300°C yielded an amorphous blend with a clear and single Tg at the final state. Experimental data from 1H‐NMR revealed that PEN/PPT copolymers (ENPT) were formed by the so‐called transesterification. The effect of transesterification on glass transition and crystallization was discussed in detail. The sequence structures of the copolyester were identified by triad analysis, which showed that the mean sequence lengths became shorter and the randomness increased with heating time. The results reveal that a random copolymer improved the miscibility of the ternary blends, in which, the length of the homo segments in the polymer chain decreased and the crystal formation was disturbed because of the irregularity of the structure, as the exchange reaction proceeded. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The crystallization kinetics and spherulitic morphology of six‐armed poly(L‐lactic acid) (6a‐PLLA)/poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co?3‐hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) crystalline/crystalline partially miscible blends were investigated with differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy in this study. Avrami analysis was used to describe the isothermal crystallization process of the neat polymers and their blends. The results suggest that blending had a complex influence on the crystallization rate of the two components during the isothermal crystallization process. Also, the crystallization mechanism of these blends was different from that of the neat polymers. The melting behavior of these blends was also studied after crystallization at various crystallization temperatures. The crystallization of PHBV at 125°C was difficult, so no melting peaks were found. However, it was interesting to find a weak melting peak, which arose from the PHBV component for the 20/80 6a‐PLLA/PHBV blend after crystallization at 125°C, and it is discussed in detail. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The compounding of rPAN/PET [polyacrylonitrile/poly(ethylene terephthalate]; 30/70, 50/50, and 70/30 wt %) using a melt‐blending technique was the main focus of this investigation. An X‐ray diffraction study indicated the possibility of interphase boundary interactions between the polymer matrices in the blends. The differential scanning calorimetry results showed that varying the ratios of rPAN in the blends marginally improved the processing temperature of PET. The thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the addition of PET up to 70% increased the thermal stability of the blend, and adding more than 70% of PET resulted in poor adhesion between the matrix and phase. On the basis of the results obtained, we propose a general understanding of how the morphology and the mechanical and thermal properties of the blend could assist in the development of rPAN blends with PET, rather than disposing of the viable materials as wastes. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A study of the thermal behavior of cured elastomeric blends of natural rubber (NR) and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) prepared by solution blending in toluene is presented. Binary blends with different compositions of NR/SBR were produced using a conventional cure system based on sulfur and TBBS (n-t-butyl-2-benzothiazole sulfonamide as accelerator. The compounds were vulcanized at 433 K up to an optimum time of cure determined by rheometric tests. From swelling tests, the crosslink densities of the compounds were obtained and compared with those obtained in similar blends prepared by mechanical mixing. The results were analyzed in terms of the disentangling of the chain structures of the SBR and NR phases and the achieved cure state of the blend. Using differential scanning calorimetry, the glass transition temperature Tg of each blend was measured. In most compounds, the value of Tg corresponding to each phase of the blend was determined, but in some blends a single value of Tg was obtained. The variation of Tg with the composition and cure level in each phase was analyzed. On the other hand, a physical mixture of two equal parts of NR and SBR vulcanized was measured and the results were compared to those of the NR50/SBR50 cured blend. Besides, to analyze the influence of the network structure, pure NR and SBR unvulcanized samples were measured. On the basis of all the obtained results, the influence of the interphase formed in the blend between SBR and NR phases is discussed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012  相似文献

In this study, the degradability of linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE) and poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) blend films under controlled composting conditions was investigated according to modified ASTM D 5338 (2003). Differential scanning calorimetry, X‐ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to determine the thermal and morphological properties of the plastic films. LLDPE 80 (80 wt % LLDPE and 20 wt % PLLA) degraded faster than grafted low‐density polyethylene–maleic anhydride (M‐g‐L) 80/4 (80 wt % LLDPE, 20 wt % PLLA, and 4 phr compatibilizer) and pure LLDPE (LLDPE 100). The mechanical properties and weight changes were determined after composting. The tensile strength of LLDPE 100, LLDPE 80, and M‐g‐L 80/4 decreased by 20, 54, and 35%, respectively. The films, as a result of degradation, exhibited a decrease in their mass. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012  相似文献

In this article, we present an investigation of the structural development of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) during uniaxial stretching above the glass‐transition temperature; this followed a statistical design of experiment approach to determine the influence of the stretching variables on the structural development. Amorphous PET was submitted to a stretching program with variations in the stretching temperature (Tst), stretching rate ( $dot {varepsilon}_{st}$ ), and stretching ratio (λst). Stretched samples were rapidly quenched and characterized by wide‐angle X‐ray scattering, optical birefringence, and differential scanning calorimetry. The relevance and influence of the stretching variables on the obtained parameters (phase fraction, phase orientation, and thermal parameters) were analyzed. The strain‐induced crystallinity was controlled by Tst, λst, and the interactions between them. Mesophase development was not dependant on Tst but on the interactions between $dot {varepsilon}_{st}$ and λst. The molecular orientation was proportionally dependent on Tst, λst, and their interactions. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011  相似文献

A polyurethane (PU) was developed from poly(dimethylamine‐co‐epichlorohydrin‐co‐ethylenediamine) (PDMAE) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as soft segment and 2,4‐toluene diisocyanate (TDI) incorporating as hard segment. Later PU was blended with poly(ethylene‐co‐ethyl acrylate) (PEEA). Poly(vinyl alcohol)‐functionalized carbon black (CB‐PVA) nanoparticles was used as filler. The structure, morphology, mechanical, crystallization, and shape memory behavior (heat and voltage) were investigated methodically. Due to physical interaction of the blend components, unique self‐assembled network morphology was observed. The interpenetrating network was responsible for 83% rise in tensile modulus and 46% increase in Young's modulus of PU/PEEA/CB‐PVA 1 hybrid compared with neat PU/PEEA bend. Electrical conductivity was increased to 0.2 Scm?1 with 1 wt % CB‐PVA nanofiller. The original shape of sample was almost 94% recovered using heat induced shape memory effect while 97% recovery was observed in an electric field of 40 V. Electroactive shape memory results were found better than heat stimulation effect. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016 , 133, 43481.  相似文献

A series of binary blends of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), poly(propylene oxide) (PPO), and polytetrahydrofuran (PTHF), characterized by similar average molecular weights, with selected fatty acids (capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid) were prepared by melt mixing. Differential scanning calorimetry was applied to characterize the phase transitions of melting and crystallization, and a synergistic effect was found to occur for PEO/fatty acid blends, as evidenced by the values of the enthalpy of the phase transition. This effect was probably due to hydrogen bonding between PEO and the fatty (carboxylic) acids, which facilitated the formation of crystalline structures; an analysis of IR spectroscopy data showed a shift in the absorption bands of OH groups. The morphology development of the PEO/carboxylic acid blends, as observed with polarizing light microscopy, could be described as spherulitic growth with spontaneous selection of the lamellar thickness. The textures of the individual fibrils, consisting of stacks of several tens of lamellae corresponding to PPO and PTHF, were less regular than the texture of PEO and showed large macroscopic heterogeneity. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Microwave‐assisted thermal sterilization (MATS) is an advanced thermal process that utilizes microwave (MW) energy for in‐package food sterilization. Benefits include much shorter processing times than conventional retort sterilization. This research explores how MATS affects the performance of high‐barrier multilayer polymeric films compared with conventional retort sterilization. The gas barrier, morphological, and free volume packaging properties of these films may influence the shelf‐life of shelf‐stable foods. In this study, we applied X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy in order to investigate film morphology and free volume characteristics, respectively. Results show that the conventional retort process affected gas barrier properties more than MATS processing did which could be explained by the morphological and free volume changes in the polymeric films. XRD revealed improved crystalline morphology of MW‐treated films in terms of overall crystallinity as compared with retort sterilization. On the other hand, higher free volume increase in MW‐treated films could be explained by the different heating mechanisms involved in MATS and retort sterilization. Overall, the oxygen transmission rate for both films remained below 2 cc/m2‐day after MATS and retort sterilization required for packaging applications for shelf‐stable foods. This work provides the basis for understanding the gas‐barrier changes of multilayer polymeric films after MATS application using Materials Science techniques. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Ionomers have been studied in detail and have gained widespread commercial use. Interested in altering the ratio of CO2/O2 permeability (i.e., permselectivity) of films for use in packaging respiring produce, we pressed sodium‐neutralized poly(ethylene methacrylic acid) ionomers into films at 120–160°C and investigated their thermal, morphological, and permeability properties. The heat treatment of the ionomers at 160°C increased the gas permeability for O2 more than for CO2 and reduced the CO2/O2 permselectivity ratio from 4.1 to 1.6. The reasons for these changes in the permeability characteristics of the ionomers are not understood but could be related to a reduction in the polyethylene (PE) crystallinity and the destruction of the aggregates into smaller, dispersed clusters. These results were supported by differential scanning calorimetry data and scanning electron micrographs. This suggests that the heat treatment of ethylene–methacyrlic ionomers may improve their potential for applications as selective barriers for modified‐atmosphere packaging of respiring produce. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A series of 1,3,5‐trialkyl‐benzenetricarboxylamides (BTA‐Rs) with different side‐chain lengths of n‐alkyl are synthesized to use as nucleating agents of poly (lactic acid) (PLA). Crystallization rate of PLA is detailed discussed in nonisothermal melt‐crystallization with addition of the synthesized nucleating agents. Among these BTA‐Rs, BTA‐n‐butyl (BTA‐nBu) shows the most excellent nucleation ability for PLA. The influences of BTA‐nBu on the nonisothermal melt‐crystallization and cold‐crystallization from the glassy state, isothermal crystallization, crystalline structure, and spherulite morphology of PLA are investigated. It is found that 0.8 wt % is the optimal weight fraction of BTA‐nBu to improve the crystallization of PLA. In the case of isothermal melt‐crystallization from melt, the addition of BTA‐nBu shortens the crystallization half‐time and speeds up the crystallization rate of PLA with no discernible effect on the crystalline structure. Besides, BTA‐nBu nucleated PLA exhibits smaller spherulites size and larger nucleation density than that of pure PLA. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Two types of graphene oxide (GO) powders were prepared by freeze‐drying or spray‐drying method, and their composites with poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) were prepared by melt blending. The influence of GO powders' type and content on crystallization behavior of PTT was investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). DSC results indicated that the overall crystallization rate of PTT was accelerated by well‐dispersed GO material which acts as a heterogeneous nucleation agent, since the Avrami parameter obtained is near 3. On the contrary, large GO aggregates which is in the minority will hinder the nucleation. Interestingly, large and well‐defined PTT spherulites instead of tremendous stunted spherulites were observed from POM, which means only a small portion of GO powders was acted as nucleation agent. Meanwhile, GO powders had no effect on PTT spherulites growth rate. In addition, the band spacing of PTT spherulites became weaker and wider with increasing GO content. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Blends of an ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) and polyisobutylene of various compositions were prepared by mechanical mixing at a temperature above the melting point of EVA (TmEVA) but below the upper critical solution temperature of 170°C for given blends. The rheological properties of the components and blends were studied in the region of small‐amplitude oscillating deformation at temperatures above and below TmEVA in the frequency range of 0.01–100 rad/s. At temperatures lower than TmEVA, the rheological properties were determined by the existence of the yield stress. With diminishing frequency, the viscosity increased, and the plateau in the relaxation spectrum at low frequencies broadened. The morphology of the blends depended on the conditions of sample heating. The introduction of a finely dispersed filler into the blends led to an anomalous drop in the viscosity. The morphology of the systems that arose by mechanical blending of the molten components was the important factor in the rheological behavior. The observed effects were examined in the framework of the concept of structural networks formed in melts by nonmelted crystallites of EVA. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In the last few decades, polymer blends with good miscibility and conductivity have been the focus of study for material scientists. Here, polymer blends of Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and Cellulose acetate (CA) of varying blend compositions have been prepared by solution casting method and their miscibility, water uptake, ion exchange capacity (IEC) proton conductivity, and dielectric properties have been studied. Dimethyl formamide (DMF) was used as solvent. Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements have been used to analyze the miscibility of the blends. Up to 50/50 PMMA/CA, water uptake showed an increasing trend and for other compositions the value decreased. Ion exchange capacity and conductivity of the blends decreased with increase in PMMA content of the blends. The variations in the blend properties have been attributed to the presence of specific interactions and exchangeable groups in the blend system. The proton conductivity of the blends is in the order of 10?3 S cm?1. Impedance analysis of the blends indicated the absence of any relaxation phenomenon in the blend system. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 130: 3074–3081, 2013  相似文献
