The effect of molecular structure of styrene–butadiene block (SB) copolymers on the morphology, tensile properties, impact strength, and microhardness of polypropylene/polystyrene (PP/PS) (80/20) blends was studied. The addition of SB copolymers substantially reduces the size of dispersed PS particles formed at mixing. The distribution of SB copolymers between the interface and bulk phases is controlled by the length of styrene blocks in SB, but a decrease in the size of PS particles at mixing correlates with total molecular weight of SB copolymers. For a substantial part of compatibilized blends, PS particles aggregate rapidly during compression molding and form honeycomb‐like particles split by SB partitions, which persist at further annealing. Aggregation of PS particles continues slowly at further annealing. Blends containing PS particles with well‐developed honeycomb structure show lower yield stress, higher plasticity, and lower tensile impact strength than the blends having PS particles with simple or undeveloped honeycomb structure. Microhardness of PP/PS blends is additive and of PP/PS/SB blends is lower than the additive due to the effect of SB copolymers on crystalline structure of PP matrix. POLYM. ENG.

The effect of the molecular structure of styrene–butadiene (SB) block copolymers and ethene–propene (EPM) random copolymers on the morphology and tensile impact strength of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE)/polystyrene (PS) (75/25) blends has been studied. The molecular characteristics of SB block copolymers markedly influence their distribution in LDPE/PS blends. In all cases, an SB copolymer is present not only at the interface but also in the bulk phases; this depends on its molecular structure. In blends compatibilized with diblock copolymers, compartmentalized PS particles can also be observed. The highest toughness values have been achieved for blends compatibilized with triblock SB copolymers. A study of the compatibilization efficiency of SB copolymers with the same number of blocks has shown that copolymers with shorter PS blocks are more efficient. A comparison of the obtained results with previous results indicates that the compatibilization efficiency of a copolymer strongly depends both on the blend composition and on the properties of the components. The compatibilization efficiency of an EPM/SB mixture is markedly affected by the rheological properties of the copolymers. The addition of an EPM/SB mixture containing EPM with a higher viscosity leads to a higher improvement or at least the same improvement in the tensile impact strength of a compatibilized blend as the same amount of neat SB. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The compatibilization efficiency of two styrene‐butadiene‐styrene triblock copolymers with short (SB1) and long (SB2) styrene blocks was studied in polystyrene (PS)–polypropylene (PP) blends of composition 20, 50, and 80 wt % PS. The supramolecular structure of the blends was determined by small‐angle X‐ray scattering, and the morphology was studied with transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Structural changes in both the uncompatibilized and compatibilized blends were correlated with the values of tensile impact strength of these blends. Even though the compatibilization mechanisms were different in blends with SB1 and SB2, the addition of the block copolymers to the PS–PP 4/1 and PS–PP 1/4 blends led to similar structures and improved the mechanical properties in the same way. These block copolymers had a very slight effect on the impact strength in PS–PP 1/1 blends, exhibiting a nearly cocontinuous phase morphology. The strong migration of SB2 copolymers to the interface and of SB1 copolymers away from the interface were detected during the annealing of compatibilized PS–PP 4/1 blends. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effect of molecular structure of six model styrene–butadiene (SB) block copolymers with various number of blocks and two lengths of styrene blocks on morphology, rheological properties, and impact strength of polystyrene (PS)/high‐density polyethylene (PE) blends was studied. It was found that location of SB copolymers in the blends is determined by the length of styrene blocks. The length of styrene blocks has similar effects on impact strength and linear viscoelastic properties of the blends. On the other hand, the correlation was not found between the effects of a number of blocks on impact strength and linear viscoelastic properties of the blends. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A tetra‐component blend, consisting of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene (PS), was studied as a model system of commingled plastic wastes (LDPE/PVC/PP/PS, mass ratio: 70/10/10/10). Effects of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), ethylene–propylene–diene monomer (EPDM), styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS), and their mixture (CPE/EPDM/SBS, mass ratio: 2/2/2) on the mechanical properties and morphology of the system were investigated. With addition of several elastomers and their mixture, the tensile strength of the blends decreased slightly, although both the elongation at break and the impact strength increased. Among these elastomers, EPDM exhibited the most significant impact modification effect for the tetra‐component blends. SBS and the mixture have a good phase‐dispersion effect for the tetra‐component blend. By adding a crosslinking agent [dicumyl peroxide (DCP)], the mechanical properties of the tetra‐component blends also increased. When either SBS or the mixture was added to the blend together with DCP, the probability that the crosslinking agent (DCP) would be at the interface improved because of the phase‐dispersion effect of SBS. Therefore, more co‐crosslinked products will form between LDPE and other components. Accordingly, remarkable improvement of the interfacial adhesion and hence the mechanical properties of the tetra‐component blends occurred. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The mid‐IR molar absorptivity for polystyrene (PS) and polybutadiene (PB) blocks were obtained for five styrene‐butadiene‐styrene (SBS) and SB copolymers, including linear, branched, and star copolymers, and their blends with bitumen. The average absorptivity for PS and PB blocks was 277 and 69 L mol−1 cm−1 and it was little affected by the S/B ratio or the copolymer architecture. In the presence of bitumen, Beer's law was obeyed but the respective PS and PB absorptivity was 242 and 68 L mol−1 cm−1, possibly because of weak interactions between the copolymer and bitumen. The absorptivity values were used to calculate the concentration of SB‐type copolymers in blends with bitumen with an accuracy of 10% or better. The method can be used to probe the stability of bitumen–copolymer blends in storage at 165°C, to determine the copolymer concentration in commercial polymer modified bitumen (PMB), and to assess the resistance of PMB to weathering. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The effect of a N,N′‐disubstituted 1,4‐phenylenediamine stabilizer and styrene‐butadiene block copolymer (SB)/ethylene‐propylene elastomer (EPDM) compatibilizer on mechanical properties and phase structure of pre‐aged low‐density polyethylene (LDPE; a model of aged recyclate)/high‐impact polystyrene (HIPS) blends was studied. A strong cooperative effect between the stabilizer and compatibilizer on the impact strength and fineness of the phase structure of LDPE/HIPS blends was found. Analysis of chemical reactions assumed to proceed in the system during processing led to the conclusion that improvement in the impact strength and phase structure was accounted for by reactive formation of a LDPE‐SB graft copolymer in a process supported by the presence of the bifunctional amine‐based stabilizer. The mixture of the amine stabilizer with SB/EPDM is a very promising upgrading system for post‐consumer plastic waste containing pre‐oxidized LDPE. J. VINYL. ADDIT.

Core–shell polybutadiene‐graft‐polystyrene (PB‐g‐PS) rubber particles with different ratios of polybutadiene to polystyrene were prepared by emulsion polymerization through grafting styrene onto polybutadiene latex. The weight ratio of polybutadiene to polystyrene ranged from 50/50 to 90/10. These core‐shell rubber particles were then blended with polystyrene to prepare PS/PB‐g‐PS blends with a constant rubber content of 20 wt%. PB‐g‐PS particles with a lower PB/PS ratio (≤70/30) form a homogeneous dispersion in the polystyrene matrix, and the Izod notched impact strength of these blends is higher than that of commercial high‐impact polystyrene (HIPS). It is generally accepted that polystyrene can only be toughened effectively by 1–3 µm rubber particles through a toughening mechanism of multiple crazings. However, the experimental results show that polystyrene can actually be toughened by monodisperse sub‐micrometer rubber particles. Scanning electron micrographs of the fracture surface and stress‐whitening zone of blends with a PB/PS ratio of 70/30 in PB‐g‐PS copolymer reveal a novel toughening mechanism of modified polystyrene, which may be shear yielding of the matrix, promoted by cavitation. Subsequently, a compression‐induced activation method was explored to compare the PS/PB‐g‐PS blends with commercial HIPS, and the result show that the toughening mechanisms of the two samples are different.

The mechanical, thermal, rheological, and morphological properties of polypropylene (PP)/polystyrene (PS) blends compatibilized with styrene–isoprene–styrene (SIS), styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS), and styrene–butadiene–rubber (SBR) were studied. The incompatible PP and PS phases were effectively dispersed by the addition of SIS, SBS, and SBR as compatibilizers. The PP/PS blends were mechanically evaluated in terms of the impact strength, ductility, and tensile yield stress to determine the influence of the compatibilizers on the performance properties of these materials. SIS‐ and SBS‐compatibilized blends showed significantly improved impact strength and ductility in comparison with SBR‐compatibilized blends over the entire range of compatibilizer concentrations. Differential scanning calorimetry indicated compatibility between the components upon the addition of SIS, SBS, and SBR by the appearance of shifts in the melt peak of PP toward the melting range of PS. The melt viscosity and storage modulus of the blends depended on the composition, type, and amount of compatibilizer. Scanning electron microscopy images confirmed the compatibility between the PP and PS components in the presence of SIS, SBS, and SBR by showing finer phase domains. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this study, a blend of polystyrene (PS)/ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) (PS/EVA, 90 : 10 wt %) was compatibilized with three different block copolymers, in which their end blocks were compatible with either styrene or EVA. The compatibilized blends with different compositions were prepared using a twin‐screw extruder and injection molded into the required test specimens. Mechanical properties of the blends, such as tensile properties and Charpy impact strength, morphology of tensile fractured surfaces, rheological properties, and thermal properties, were investigated. The results show that the interaction between the dispersed and continuous phase can be improved by the addition of a compatibilizer. Appreciable improvement in the impact strength of the blend with 15 wt % of compatibilizer C (polystyrene‐block‐polybutadiene) was observed. Its mechanical properties are comparable to those of the commercial high‐impact polystyrene, STYRON 470. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 94: 2071–2082, 2004  相似文献

The modification of asphalt with styrene‐ butadiene block copolymers and sulfur was studied to elucidate the effect of the molecular characteristics of the polymer, polymer content, and sulfur/polymer ratio on the physical properties of modified asphalts. Two types of styrene‐butadiene copolymers were used (SB and SBS), which differed considerably in terms of their chain architecture, average molecular weights, and size and distribution of their polybutadiene and polystyrene blocks, as shown by gel permeation chromatography, infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and differential scanning calorimetry. Sulfur/polymer/asphalt blends were prepared by a hot mixing process and characterized by conventional tests, fluorescence microscopy, and rheology. The results revealed that the morphology of the blends is strongly dependent on polymer concentration and sulfur/polymer ratio. In‐depth rheological characterization showed that the thermomechanical properties changed considerably upon addition of small amounts of sulfur. Collectively, these results suggest that sulfur increases the compatibility between polymer and asphalt by crosslinking polymer chains. Interestingly, the rheological behavior of blends prepared with a combination of SB and sulfur was similar to that exhibited by blends prepared with SBS either in the presence or absence of sulfur. This is explained by assuming that the addition of small amounts of sulfur to SB‐modified asphalt facilitates the formation of an elastomeric network that resembles the one found in SBS‐modified asphalt, effectively contributing to asphalt reinforcement. Nonetheless, the exact dosage of sulfur must be carefully controlled to prevent gel formation. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010  相似文献

Diblock and triblock copolymers of poly‐L ‐lactide (PLLA) and polystyrene (PS) were synthesized and the mechanical properties of these copolymers studied. Free radical polymerization of styrene in the presence of 2‐mercaptoethanol as functional chain transfer agent produced mono‐functionalized PS‐blocks which were used as macroinitiators in the subsequent ring opening polymerization (ROP) of L ‐lactide to produce the diblock copolymers. Furthermore a α‐ω‐bishydroxyl functionalized PS‐block was synthesized by RAFT, which was then engaged as bifunctional initiator for the ROP of L ‐lactide to provide the triblock copolymers PLLA‐PS‐PLLA. Through the copolymerisation and high molar masses, it was possible to achieve an improved mechanical property profile, compared with pure PLLA, or the analogous blends of PLLA and PS. A weight fraction of PS of 10–30% was found to be the optimal range for improving the heat deflection temperature (HDT), as well as mechanical properties such as ultimate tensile strength or elongation at break. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This work aims at studying the toughening process of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) through its blends with styrene‐butadiene‐styrene block copolymers (SBS), in the presence of poly(styrene‐ran‐glicydil methacrylate) (PS‐GMA) as reactive compatibilizer. High values of impact strength were attained for PBT/SBS blends without the compatibilizer; however, this improvement is achieved for blends with SBS having similar viscosity compared to PBT, at high SBS content (40 wt %) and for blends prepared under specific processing conditions. The efficiency of the in situ compatibilization of PBT/SBS blends by PS‐GMA was found to be strongly dependent on the SBS and PS‐GMA molecular characteristics. Better compatibilizing results were observed through fine phase morphologies and lower ductile to brittle transition temperatures (DBTT) as the interfacial interaction and stability of the in situ formed compatibilizer are maximized, that is, when the miscibility between SBS and PS‐GMA and reaction degree between PBT and PS‐GMA are maximized. For the PBT/SBS/PS‐GMA blends under study, this was found when it is used the SBS with higher polystyrene content (38 wt %) and with longer PS blocks (Mw = 20,000 g mol?1) and also the PS‐GMA with moderate GMA contents (4 wt %) and with molecular weight similar to the critical one for PS entanglements (Mc = 35,000 g mol?1). © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of block number in linear styrene‐butadiene (SB) block copolymers (BCs) on their compatibilization efficiency in blending polystyrene (PS) with polybutadiene (PB) was studied. Di‐, tri‐, or pentablocks of SB copolymers as well as their combinations were blended with the mentioned homopolymers; supramolecular structure determined by small angle X‐ray scattering method (SAXS), morphology using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) combined with image analysis (IA), and stress transfer characteristics of the blends were chosen as criteria of compatibilization efficiency of the copolymers used. It was proved that the addition of SB BCs led to remarkably finer phase structure and substantially higher toughness of PS/PB blends. Triblock copolymer showed to be the compatibilizer with higher efficiency than diblock, pentablock, and the di/triblock copolymer mixture. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This work aimed at studying the role of poly(phenylene oxide) (PPO) and polystyrene (PS) in toughening polyamide‐6 (PA6)/styrene‐ethylene‐butadiene‐styrene block copolymer grafted with maleic anhydride (SEBS‐g‐MA) blends. The effects of weight ratio and content of PPO/PS on the morphology and mechanical behaviors of PA6/SEBS‐g‐MA/(PPO/PS) blends were studied by scanning electron microscope and mechanical tests. Driving by the interfacial tension and the spreading coefficient, the “core–shell” particles formed by PPO/PS (core) and SEBS‐g‐MA (shell) played the key role in toughening the PA6 blends. As PS improved the distribution of the “core–shell” particles due to its low viscosity, and PPO guaranteed the entanglement density of the PPO/PS phase, the 3/1 weight ratio of PPO/PS supplied the blends optimal mechanical properties. Within certain range, the increased content of PPO/PS could supply more efficient toughening particles and bring better mechanical properties. Thus, by adjusting the weight ratio and content of PPO and PS, the PA6/SEBS‐g‐MA/(PPO/PS) blends with excellent impact strength, high tensile strength, and good heat deflection temperature were obtained. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Two styrene‐butadiene triblock copolymers differing in the length of their styrene blocks (40S‐60B‐40S and 10S‐60B‐10S) were used as compatibilizers for PS/PB (4/1) and PS/PP (4/1) blends. The supramolecular structure of the copolymers determined by small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS), morphology of the blends using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and their tensile impact strength were chosen as criteria of the compatibilization efficiency of the copolymers used. Different mechanisms of compatibilization for “symmetrical” system (PS/PB/SBS) and “asymmetrical” system (PS/PP/SBS) were proved. While for the PS/PB blend, the 40S‐60B‐40S copolymer proved to be a good compatibilizer, for the PS/PP blend, surprisingly, the 10S‐60B‐10S copolymer is more efficient.  相似文献

Blends of styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS) or styrene–ethylene/1‐butene–styrene (SEBS) triblock copolymers with a commercial mixture of polystyrene (PS) and poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) (PPO) were prepared in the melt at different temperatures according to the chemical kind of the copolymer. Although solution‐cast SBS/PPO and SBS/PS blends were already known in the literature, a general and systematic study of the miscibility of the PS/PPO blend with a styrene‐based triblock copolymer in the melt was still missing. The thermal and mechanical behavior of SBS/(PPO/PS) blends was investigated by means of DSC and dynamic thermomechanical analysis (DMTA). The results were then compared to analogous SEBS/(PPO/PS) blends, for which the presence of a saturated olefinic block allowed processing at higher temperatures (220°C instead of 180°C). All the blends were further characterized by SEM and TGA to tentatively relate the observed properties with the blends' morphology and degradation temperature. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Blends of polystyrene (PS) with polyolefin elastomer (POE) were prepared by a reactive extrusion method. In order to increase the compatibility of the two blending components, a Lewis acid catalyst, aluminium chloride (AlCl3), was adopted to initiate the Friedel–Crafts alkylation reaction. Fourier‐transform infrared (FTIR) spectra of the PS/POE/AlCl3 blends extracted with butanone verified the graft structure between the PS and POE. Because the in situ generated PS‐graft‐POE copolymers acted as compatibilizers, the mechanical properties of PS/POE blends were greatly improved. For example, after compatibilization, the Charpy impact strength of an 80/20 (wt%) PS/POE blend was increased from 6.29 to 8.50 kJ m?2. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the size of the droplets decreased from 9–10 µm to less than 2 µm with the addition of AlCl3. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) showed competition between the grafting reaction and the degradation of blending components in the presence of AlCl3.

In this study, blends of metallocene short‐chain branched polyethylene (SCBPE) with low‐density polyethylene (LDPE), high‐density polyethylene (HDPE), polystyrene (PS), ethylene–propylene–diene monomer (EPDM), and isotactic polypropylene (iPP) were prepared in weight proportions of 80 and 20, respectively. The crystallization behaviors of these blends were studied with polarized light microscopy (PLM) and differential scanning calorimetry. PLM showed that SCBPE/LDPE, SCBPE/HDPE, and SCBPE/EPDM formed band spherulites whose band widths and sizes were both smaller than that of pure SCBPE. No spherulites were observed, but tiny crystallites were observed in the completely immiscible SCBPE/PS, and the crystallites in SCBPE/iPP became smaller; only irregular spherulites were seen. The crystallization kinetics and mechanical properties of SCBPE were greatly affected by the second polyolefin but in different way, depending on the phase behavior and the moduli of the second components. SCBPE may be phase‐miscible in the melt with LDPE, HDPE, and EPDM but phase‐separated during crystallization. A big change in the crystal morphology and crystallization kinetics existed in the SCBPE/iPP blend. The mechanical properties of the blends were also researched with dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). DMA results showed that the tensile modulus of the blends had nothing to do with the phase behavior but only depended on the modulus of the second component. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effect of a styrene–butadiene block copolymer on the phase structure and impact strength of high‐density and low‐density polyethylene/high‐impact polystyrene blends with various compositions was studied. For both the blends, the type of the phase structure was not affected by addition of a styrene–butadiene compatibilizer. The localization and structure of the compatibilizer in the blends were dependent on their composition. Addition of the compatibilizer improved impact strength of the blends in the whole concentration range. The improvement was the largest for blends with a low amount of the minor phase. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 81: 570–580, 2001  相似文献
