Atactic poly(methylmethacrylate), aPMMA, was blended with poly(3‐D(−)hydroxybutyrate), PHB, up to a maximum composition of 25% of polyester, at 190°C in a Brabender‐like apparatus. The resulting blends quenched from the melt to room temperature were completely amorphous, and exhibited a single glass transition using DSC and DMTA, indicating miscibility of the components for this time–temperature history. Tensile experiments showed that at room temperature the 10/90 and 20/80 PHB/aPMMA blends exhibited higher values of strain at break, and slight decreases of the modulus and stress at break compared to neat aPMMA. The tensile energy at break was almost twice that of neat aPMMA. Tensile tests were also performed at 80°C, at which point the 25/75 and 20/80 PHB/aPMMA blends are above Tg, while the 10/90 and neat aPMMA are below Tg. The stress–strain curves obtained were functions of the physical state of the amorphous phase, and also depended on the difference between the test temperatures and Tg. In particular, comparing the neat aPMMA and the blends, decreases of the modulus and stress at break and a respectable increase in the strain at break were observed in the latter. Finally, the results were commented considering the thermal degradation of PHB in the melt during the blend preparation. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 75: 746–753, 2000  相似文献

CO2 sorption and diffusion in poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) and three poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) copolymers were investigated gravimetrically at temperatures from 25° to 50°C and pressures up to 1 atm. The sorption behavior proved to be linear for all the copolymers studied. An additional set of measurements performed in a pressure decay apparatus at 35°C showed that the linearity could be extrapolated to pressures up to 25 atm. The sorption results obtained from both techniques were in good agreement. The poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) sorption kinetics were increasingly non‐Fickian at the higher temperatures, thus preventing the calculation of diffusion coefficients above 35°C. Interestingly, this was not the case for poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate), and diffusion coefficients and permeabilities could be calculated at all of the investigated temperatures. The 35°C permeabilities were fairly low, which is attributed to the high degree of crystallinity of this polyester family. Finally, the poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) barrier properties against CO2 are successfully compared with those of some selected common thermoplastics. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The miscibility and crystallization kinetics of the blends of random poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) [P(HB‐co‐HV)] copolymer and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). It was found that P(HB‐co‐HV)/PMMA blends were miscible in the melt. Thus the single glass‐transition temperature (Tg) of the blends within the whole composition range suggests that P(HB‐co‐HV) and PMMA were totally miscible for the miscible blends. The equilibrium melting point (T°m) of P(HB‐co‐HV) in the P(HB‐co‐HV)/PMMA blends decreased with increasing PMMA. The T°m depression supports the miscibility of the blends. With respect to the results of crystallization kinetics, it was found that both the spherulitic growth rate and the overall crystallization rate decreased with the addition of PMMA. The kinetics retardation was attributed to the decrease in P(HB‐co‐HV) molecular mobility and dilution of P(HB‐co‐HV) concentration resulting from the addition of PMMA, which has a higher Tg. According to secondary nucleation theory, the kinetics of spherulitic crystallization of P(HB‐co‐HV) in the blends was analyzed in the studied temperature range. The crystallizations of P(HB‐co‐HV) in P(HB‐co‐HV)/PMMA blends were assigned to n = 4, regime III growth process. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 91: 3595–3603, 2004  相似文献

The miscibility of poly(3‐hydroxyvalerate) (PHV)/poly(p‐vinyl phenol) (PVPh) blends has been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The blends are miscible as shown by the existence of a single glass transition temperature (Tg) and a depression of the equilibrium melting temperature of PHV in each blend. The interaction parameter was found to be −1.2 based on the analysis of melting point depression data using the Nishi–Wang equation. Hydrogen‐bonding interactions exist between the carbonyl groups of PHV and the hydroxyl groups of PVPh as evidenced by FTIR spectra. The crystallization of PHV is significantly hindered by the addition of PVPh. The addition of 50 wt % PVPh can totally prevent PHV from cold crystallization. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The confined crystallization of poly(?‐caprolactone) (PCL) block in poly(?‐caprolactone)–poly(l ‐lactide) (PCL‐PLLA) copolymers was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy and atomic force microscopy. To study the effect of crystallization and molecular chain motion state of PLLA blocks in PCL‐PLLA copolymers on PCL crystallization morphology, high‐temperature annealing (180 °C) and low‐temperature annealing (80 °C) were applied to treat the samples. It was found that the crystallization morphology of PCL block in PCL‐PLLA copolymers is not only related to the ratio of block components, but also related to the thermal history. After annealing PCL‐PLLA copolymers at 180 °C, the molten PCL blocks are rejected from the front of PLLA crystal growth into the amorphous regions, which will lead to PCL and PLLA blocks exhibiting obvious fractionated crystallization and forming various morphologies depending on the length of PLLA segment. On the contrary, PCL blocks more easily form banded spherulites after PCL‐PLLA copolymers are annealed at 80 °C because the preexisting PLLA crystal template and the dangling amorphous PLLA chains on PCL segments more easily cause unequal stresses at opposite fold surfaces of PCL lamellae during the growth process. Also, it was found that the growth rate of banded spherulites is less than that of classical spherulites and the growth rate of banded spherulites decreases with decreasing band spacing. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

The thermal degradation of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) [P(HB‐HV)] was studied using thermogravimetry (TG). In the thermal degradation of PHB, the temperature at the onset of weight loss (To) was derived by To = 0.97B + 259, where B represents the heating rate (°C/min). The temperature at which the weight loss rate was maximum (Tp) was Tp = 1.07B + 273, and the final temperature (Tf) at which degradation was completed was Tf = 1.10B + 280. The percentage of the weight loss at temperature Tp (Cp) was 69 ± 1% whereas the percentage of the weight loss at temperature Tf (Cf) was 96 ± 1%. In the thermal degradation of P(HB‐HV) (7:3), To = 0.98B + 262, Tp = 1.00B + 278, and Tf = 1.12B + 285. The values of Cp and Cf were 62 ± 7 and 93 ± 1%, respectively. The derivative thermogravimetric (DTG) curves of PHB confirmed only one weight loss step change because the polymer mainly consisted of the HB monomer only. The DTG curves of P(HB‐HV), however, suggested multiple weight loss step changes; this was probably due to the different evaporation rates of the two monomers. The incorporation of 10 and 30 mol % of the HV component into the polyester increased the various thermal temperatures (To, Tp, andTf) by 7–12°C (measured at B = 20°C/min). © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The miscibility and crystallization behavior of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) (P(HB‐co‐HV))/poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) blends have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). It was found that P(HB‐co‐HV)/PVAc blends were miscible in the melt over the whole compositions. Thus the blend exhibited a single glass transition temperature (Tg), which increased with increasing PVAc composition. The spherulitic morphologies of P(HB‐co‐HV)/PVAc blends indicated that the PVAc was predominantly segregated into P(HB‐co‐HV) interlamellar or interfibrillar regions during P(HB‐co‐HV) crystallization because of the volume‐filled spherulites. As to the crystallization kinetics study, it was found that the overall crystallization and crystal growth rates decreased with the addition of PVAc. The kinetics retardation was primarily attributed to the reduction of chain mobility and dilution of P(HB‐co‐HV) upon mixing with higher Tg PVAc. The overall crystallization rate was predominantly governed by the spherulitic growth rate and promoted by the samples treated with the quenched state because of the higher nucleation density. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An important strategy used in the polymer industry in recent years is blending two bio‐based polymers to attain desirable properties similar to traditional thermoplastics, thus increasing the application potential for bio‐based and bio‐degradable polymers. Miscibility of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) with poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLA) were characterized using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Three different grades of commercially available PLAs and one type of PHBV were blended in different ratios of 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, and 80/20 (PHBV/PLA) using a micro‐compounder at 175°C. The DSC and TGA analysis showed the blends were immiscible due to different stereo configuration of PLA polymer and two distinct melting temperatures. However, some compatibility between PHBV and PLA polymers was observed due to decreases in PLA's glass transition temperatures. Additionally, the blends do not show clear separation by SEM analysis, as observed in the thermal analysis. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012  相似文献

The miscibility, melting and crystallization behaviour of poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate], PHB, and oligo[(R,S)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate]‐diol, oligo‐HB, blends have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry: thermograms of blends containing up to 60 wt% oligo‐HB showed behaviour characteristic of single‐phase amorphous glasses with a composition dependent glass transition, Tg, and a depression in the equilibrium melting temperature of PHB. The negative value of the interaction parameter, determined from the equilibrium melting depression, confirms miscibility between blend components. In parallel studies, glass transition relaxations of different melt‐crystallized polymer blends containing 0–20 wt% oligo‐HB were dielectrically investigated between ?70 °C and 120 °C in the 100 Hz to 50 kHz range. The results revealed the existence of a single α‐relaxation process for blends, indicating the miscibility between amorphous fractions of PHB and oligo‐HB. © 2002 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

A ternary blend system comprising poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate) (PCHMA), poly(α‐methyl styrene) (PαMS) and poly(4‐methyl styrene) (P4MS) was investigated by thermal analysis, optical and scanning electron microscopy. Ternary phase behaviour was compared with the behaviour for the three constituent binary pairs. This study showed that the ternary blends of PCHMA/PαMS/P4MS in most compositions were miscible, with an apparent glass transition temperature (Tg) and distinct cloud‐point transitions, which were located at lower temperatures than their binary counterparts. However, in a closed‐loop range of compositions roughly near the centre of the triangular phase diagram, some ternary blends displayed phase separation with heterogeneity domains of about 1 µm. Therefore, it is properly concluded that ternary PCHMA/PαMS/P4M is partially miscible with a small closed‐loop immisciblity range, even though all the constituent binary pairs are fully miscible. Thermodynamic backgrounds leading to decreased miscibility and greater heterogeneity in a ternary polymer system in comparison with the binary counterparts are discussed. © 2003 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

Dynamic viscoelastic properties for miscible blends of poly(?‐caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(styrene‐co‐acrylonitrile) (SAN) were measured. It was found that the time–temperature superposition principle is applicable over the entire temperature range studied for the blends. The temperature dependency of the shift factors aT can be expressed by the Williams–Landel–Ferry equation: log aT = ?8.86(T ? Ts)/(101.6 + T ? Ts). The compositional dependency of Ts represents the Gordon–Taylor equation. The zero‐shear viscosities are found to increase concavely upward with an increase in weight fraction of SAN at constant temperature, but concavely downward at constant free volume fraction. It is concluded that the relaxation behavior of the PCL/SAN blends is similar to that of a blend consisting of homologous polymers. It is emphasized that the viscoelastic functions of the miscible blends should be compared in the iso‐free volume state. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 82: 2037–2041, 2001  相似文献

Miscible polymer blends based on various ratios of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were prepared in film form by the solution casting technique using benzene as a common solvent. The thermal decomposition behavior of these blends and their individual homopolymers before and after γ‐irradiation at various doses (50–250 kGy) was investigated. The thermogravimetric analysis technique was utilized to determine the temperatures at which the maximum value of the rate of reaction (Tmax) occurs and the kinetic parameters of the thermal decomposition. The rate of reaction curves of the individual homopolymers or their blends before or after γ‐ irradiation displayed similar trends in which the Tmax corresponding to all polymers was found to exist in the same position but with different values. These findings and the visual observations of the blend solutions and the transparency of the films gave support to the complete miscibility of these blends. Three transitions were observed along the reaction rate versus temperature curves; the first was around 100–200°C with no defined Tmax, which may arise from the evaporation of the solvent. The second Tmax was in the 340–380°C range, which depended on the polymer blend and the γ‐irradiation condition. A third transition was seen in the rate of reaction curves only for pure PVAc and its blends with PMMA with ratios up to 50%, regardless of γ‐ irradiation. We concluded that γ‐irradiation improved the thermal stability of PVAc/PMMA blends, even though the PMMA polymer was degradable by γ irradiation. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

To investigate structural factors, necessary to obtain a valuable industrial fiber possessing excellent thermomechanical properties, poly(ethylene 2,6‐naphthalene dicarboxylate) (PEN) fibers were produced by high‐speed melt‐spinning to a take‐up speed of 8 km/min, followed by low‐temperature annealing between the glass‐transition temperature (Tg) and exothermic cold crystallization temperature (Tc cold), where little transition of crystalline phase, as well as little thermal degradation, takes place. Their thermomechanical behavior, as well as structural variations, were investigated through differential scanning calorimetry, Rheovibron, thermomechanical analysis (TMA), and tensile testing. Two types of the α‐ and α′‐dispersions were observed at near Tg and at a temperature 50–60°C higher than Tg, respectively. The dispersions were affected by rearranged structures, which are generated by developing an inhomogeneous taut structure with rigidity of aromatic segment and aliphatic segment. The α‐dispersion seemed to reflect an inhomogeneous taut structure by the less nearly arranged segments. Consequently, at intermediate take‐up speeds between 2 and 6 km/min the inhomogeneous taut structure may be partially formed, but the homogeneously ordered structure may be enlarged as the take‐up speed and annealing temperature increased. Thermal shrinkage increased above the α‐dispersion temperature, which suggested that the onset point of dimensional change in PEN fibers was attributed to α‐dispersion. In the case of annealed fibers, the start of length change coincided with the respective annealing temperatures, which indicated that dimensional stability could be gained from restraining the inhomogeneous taut structure in the amorphous region without the transition of crystalline phase by annealing between Tg and Tc cold. Therefore, to obtain dimensional stability in PEN fibers, it is supposed that the inhomogeneous taut structure exhibited by the α‐dispersion should be controlled. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) were prepared by sequential method. The dynamic mechanical parameters of obtained IPNs and their variations with the structural composition were evaluated. The results for the IPNs were compared with corresponding physically blended systems. The tensile properties and damping factor (tan δ) were assessed by stress–strain measurement and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA), respectively. The glass–rubber transition temperature (Tg) was assessed by DMTA and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results showed higher tensile strength and elongation at break for IPNs than those for physical blends. The shifts of Tg for that two components that make up the IPNs were greater than those for corresponding blends. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 86: 3480–3485, 2002  相似文献

Blends of poly(3‐hydroxy butyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxy valerate) (PHBV) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) were prepared by casting from chloroform solutions. Crystallization kinetics and melting behavior of blends have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry and optical polarizing microscopy. Experimental results reveal that the constituents are miscible in the amorphous state. They form separated crystal structures in the solid state. Crystallization behavior of the blends was studied under isothermal and nonisothermal conditions. Owing to the large difference in melting temperatures, the constituents crystallize consecutively in blends; however, the process is affected by the respective second component. PHBV crystallizes from the amorphous mixture of the constituents, at temperatures where the PEO remains in the molten state. PEO, on the other hand, is surrounded during its crystallization process by crystalline PHBV regions. The degree of crystallinity in the blends stays constant for PHBV and decreases slightly for PEO, with ascending PHBV content. The rate of crystallization of PHBV decreases in blends as compared to the neat polymer. The opposite behavior is observed for PEO. Nonisothermal crystallization is discussed in terms of a quasi‐isothermal approach. Qualitatively, the results show the same tendencies as under isothermal conditions. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Isotactic, atactic, and syndiotactic poly(methyl methacrylates) (PMMAs) (designated as iPMMA, aPMMA, and sPMMA) with approximately the same molecular weight were mixed separately with poly(styrene‐co‐acrylonitrile) (abbreviated as PSAN) containing 25 wt % of acrylonitrile in tetrahydrofuran to make three polymer blend systems. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to study the miscibility of these blends. The results showed that the tacticity of PMMA has a definite impact on its miscibility with PSAN. The aPMMA/PSAN and sPMMA/PSAN blends were found to be miscible because all the prepared films were transparent and showed composition dependent glass transition temperatures (Tgs). The glass transition temperatures of the two miscible blends were fitted well by the Fox equation, and no broadening of the glass transition regions was observed. The iPMMA/PSAN blends were found to be immiscible, because most of the cast films were translucent and had two glass transition temperatures. Through the use of a simple binary interaction model, the following comments can be drawn. The isotactic MMA segments seemed to interact differently with styrene and with acrylonitrile segments from atactic or syndiotactic MMA segments. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

In this work, stereocomplex‐poly(l ‐ and d ‐lactide) (sc‐PLA) was incorporated into poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) to fabricate a novel biodegradable polymer composite. PCL/sc‐PLA composites were prepared by solution casting at sc‐PLA loadings of 5–30 wt %. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) demonstrated the formation of the stereocomplex in the blends. DSC and WAXD curves also indicated that the addition of sc‐PLA did not alter the crystal structure of PCL. Rheology and mechanical properties of neat PCL and the PCL/sc‐PLA composites were investigated in detail. Rheological measurements indicated that the composites exhibited evident solid‐like response in the low frequency region as the sc‐PLA loadings reached up to 20 wt %. Moreover, the long‐range motion of PCL chains was highly restrained. Dynamic mechanical analysis showed that the storage modulus (E′) of PCL in the composites was improved and the glass transition temperature values were hardly changed after the addition of sc‐PLA. Tensile tests showed that the Young's modulus, and yield strength of the composites were enhanced by the addition of sc‐PLA while the tensile strength and elongation at break were reduced. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The morphological development and crystallization behavior of poly(?‐caprolactone) (PCL) in miscible mixtures of PCL and poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) were investigated by optical microscopy as a function of the mixture composition and crystallization temperature. The results indicated that the degree of crystallinity of PCL was independent of the mixture composition upon melt crystallization because the glass‐transition temperatures of the mixtures were much lower than the crystallization temperature of PCL. The radii of the PCL spherulites increased linearly with time at crystallization temperatures ranging from 42 to 49°C. The isothermal growth rates of PCL spherulites decreased with the amount of the amorphous PVME components in the mixtures. Accounting for the miscibility of PCL/PVME mixtures, the radial growth rates of PCL spherulites were well described by a kinetic equation involving the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter and the free energy for the nuclei formation in such a way that the theoretical calculations were in good agreement with the experimental data. From the analysis of the equilibrium melting point depression, the interaction energy density of the PVME/PCL system was calculated to be ?3.95 J/cm3. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The thermal degradation kinetics of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) [poly(HB–HV)] under nitrogen was studied by thermogravimetry (TG). The results show that the thermal degradation temperatures (To, Tp, and Tf) increased with an increasing heating rate (B). Poly(HB–HV) was thermally more stable than PHB because its thermal degradation temperatures, To(0), Tp(0), and Tf(0)—determined by extrapolation to B = 0°C/min—increased by 13°C–15°C over those of PHB. The thermal degradation mechanism of PHB and poly(HB–HV) under nitrogen were investigated with TG–FTIR and Py–GC/MS. The results show that the degradation products of PHB are mainly propene, 2‐butenoic acid, propenyl‐2‐butenoate and butyric‐2‐butenoate; whereas, those of poly(HB–HV) are mainly propene, 2‐butenoic acid, 2‐pentenoic acid, propenyl‐2‐butenoate, propenyl‐2‐pentenoate, butyric‐2‐butenoate, pentanoic‐2‐pentenoate, and CO2. The degradation is probably initiated from the chain scission of the ester linkage. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 89: 1530–1536, 2003  相似文献

Various problems, including high crystallinity, high melting temperature, poor thermal stability, hydrophobicity and brittleness, have impeded many practical applications of poly[(3‐hydroxybutyrate)‐co‐(3‐hydroxyvalerate)] (PHBV) as an environmentally friendly material and biomedical material. In the work reported here, multi‐block copolymers containing PHBV and poly(ethylene glycol) (PHBV‐b‐PEG) were synthesized with telechelic hydroxylated PHBV as a hard and hydrophobic segment, PEG as a soft and hydrophilic segment and 1,6‐hexamethylene diisocyanate as a coupling reagent to solve the problems mentioned above. PHBV and PEG blocks in PHBV‐b‐PEG formed separate crystalline phases with lower crystallinity levels and lower melting temperatures than those of phases formed in the precursors. The crystallite dimensions of the two blocks in PHBV‐b‐PEG were smaller than those of the corresponding precursors. Compared to values for the original PHBV, the maximum decomposition temperature of the PHBV block in PHBV‐b‐PEG was 16.0 °C higher and the water contact angle was 9° lower. In addition, the elongation at break was 2.8% for a pure PHBV fiber but 20.9% for a PHBV/PHBV‐b‐PEG fiber with a PHBV‐b‐PEG content of 30%. PHBV‐b‐PEGs can overcome some of the disadvantages of pure PHBV; it is possible that PHBV might be a good candidate for the formulation of environmentally friendly materials and biomedical materials.
