Ethylene‐octene random copolymer (EOC) is one of the most commonly employed elastomers for PP, and as such its rubber toughening efficiency has been extensively studied. However, most existing studies employ EOC containing an octene comonomer of about 8 mol %. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effect of EOC octene comonomer content on the morphology and thermal and mechanical properties of PP‐ethylene random copolymer (PP‐CP)/EOC (80/20 wt %/wt %) blends. It was clearly shown that the properties of the blends are significantly affected by the octene content. The rubber particle size of the blends decreased as the octene content in the EOC was increased, which was a consequence of the reduced interfacial tension between PP‐CP and EOC. Impact strength of the blends as a function of octene content displayed a brittle‐ductile transition. The tensile yield strength and modulus of the PP‐CP/EOC blends were decreased by addition of EOC, owing to incorporation of the soft EOC into the hard PP‐CP. The tensile yield strength and modulus of PP‐CP/EOC blends decreased monotonically with the octene content in the EOC. The melting temperature as well as the crystallinity of the PP‐CP phase were not affected significantly by the addition of EOC whereas a notable shift in melting and crystallization temperatures was observed for the EOC phase. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The coarsening rates of the two‐phase morphologies of linear polyethylene/poly(ethylene‐co‐1‐octene) blends were determined as functions of molecular weight. Samples with cocontinuous morphologies that were prepared through solution blending were annealed in the melt state for various times, and, subsequently the length scales of the morphologies were determined with a line‐intersection method. Length‐scale data were multiplied by a function that normalized for the effects of differences in zero‐shear‐rate viscosity and thermal energy; after normalization, the data largely fell on one trend line within the bounds of experimental error. This indicated that the principal effect of increasing molecular weight was to slow the coarsening rate through an increase in melt viscosity, with little effect from the thermodynamic compatibility of the two polymers. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mechanical, thermal, and morphological properties of blends of high density polyethylene and poly(ethylene‐co‐1‐octene) (PEO) were evaluated. The blends were prepared in a single screw extruder at 230°C and 50 rpm with volume fraction of elastomer varying in the range from 0.05 to 0.8. Factors such as chemical similarity and melt viscosity favor the interdiffusion process of phases, resulting in better interfacial adhesion. A synergistic effect on the strength at break and elongation at break for a particular range of blend composition was observed. Blends with a volume fraction of PEO higher than 5% presented a super tough behavior at room temperature. Thermal analysis showed that there is a certain degree of interaction between high density polyethylene and PEO. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 81: 1991–1995, 2001 相似文献

The effect of addition of propylene copolymer, produced by metallocene catalysts, on the mechanical, rheological, and morphological properties of blends based on poly(propylene) (PP) and ethylene–1‐octene copolymer (EOC) was evaluated. It was observed that the addition of 2 wt % propylene–1‐octene copolymer (POC) improved the impact strength of the EOC/PP blends. The rheological analysis indicated that the addition of propylene copolymer produced materials with improved processability. Thermal and morphological analysis showed that the POC acts as a compatibilizer on the EOC/PP blends. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, J Appl Polym Sci 89: 1690–1695, 2003 相似文献

Blends of synthetic poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC) with a natural bacterial copolymer of 3‐hydroxybutyrate with 3‐hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) containing 8 mol % 3‐hydroxyvalerate units were prepared with a simple casting procedure. PPC was thermally stabilized by end‐capping before use. The miscibility, morphology, and crystallization behavior of the blends were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscopy, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), and small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS). PHBV/PPC blends showed weak miscibility in the melt, but the miscibility was very low. The effect of PPC on the crystallization of PHBV was evident. The addition of PPC decreased the rate of spherulite growth of PHBV, and with increasing PPC content in the PHBV/PPC blends, the PHBV spherulites became more and more open. However, the crystalline structure of PHBV did not change with increasing PPC in the PHBV/PPC blends, as shown from WAXD analysis. The long period obtained from SAXS showed a small increase with the addition of PPC. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 90: 4054–4060, 2003 相似文献

In the past 3 decades, there has been great advancement in the preparation of microcellular thermoplastic polymer foams. However, little attention has been paid to thermoplastic elastomers. In this study, microcellular poly(ethylene‐co‐octene) (PEOc) rubber foams with a cell density of 2.9 × 1010 cells/cm3 and a cell size of 1.9 μm were successfully prepared with carbon dioxide as the physical blowing agent with a batch foaming process. The microcellular PEOc foams exhibited a well‐defined, closed‐cell structure, a uniform cell size distribution, and the formation of unfoamed skin at low foaming temperatures. Their difference from thermoplastic foam was from obvious volume recovery in the atmosphere because of the elasticity of the polymer matrix. We investigated the effect of the molecular weight on the cell growth process by changing the foaming conditions, and two important effect factors on the cell growth, that is, the polymer matrix modulus/melt viscoelastic properties and gas diffusion coefficient, were assessed. With increasing molecular weight, the matrix modulus and melt viscosity tended to increase, whereas the gas solubility and diffusion coefficient decreased. The increase in the matrix modulus and melt viscosity tended to decrease the cell size and stabilize the cell structure at high foaming temperatures, whereas the increase in the gas diffusion coefficient facilitated cell growth at the beginning and limited cell growth because most of the gas diffused out of the polymer matrix during the long foaming times or at high foaming temperatures. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The objective of this work was to study the miscibility and phase‐separation temperatures of poly(styrene‐co‐maleic anhydride) (SMA)/poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) and SMA/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends with differential scanning calorimetry and small‐angle light scattering techniques. We focused on the effect of SMA partial imidization with aniline on the miscibility and phase‐separation temperatures of these blends. The SMA imidization reaction led to a partially imidized styrene N‐phenyl succinimide copolymer (SMI) with a degree of conversion of 49% and a decomposition temperature higher than that of SMA by about 20°C. We observed that both SMI/PVME and SMI/PMMA blends had lower critical solution temperature behavior. The imidization of SMA increased the phase‐separation temperature of the SMA/PVME blend and decreased that of the SMA/PMMA blend. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008 相似文献

The miscibility was investigated in blends of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and styrene‐acrylonitrile (SAN) copolymers with different acrylonitrile (AN) contents. The 50/50 wt % blends of PMMA with the SAN copolymers containing 5, 35, and 50 wt % of AN were immiscible, while the blend with copolymer containing 25 wt % of AN was miscible. The morphologies of PMMA/SAN blends were characterized by virtue of scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the miscibility of PMMA/SAN blends were in consistence with the morphologies observed. Moreover, the different morphologies in blends of PMMA and SAN were also observed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011 相似文献

Ultrahigh‐molecular‐weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)/polar polyethylene (PE) composites were blended in one nascent particle by in situ polymerization with a hybrid catalyst. Polystyrene‐coated SiO2 particles were used to support the hybrid catalyst. Fe(acac)3/2,6‐bis[1‐(2‐isopropylanilinoethyl)] was supported on SiO2 for the synthesis of UHMWPE, whereas [PhN?C(CH3)CH?C(Ph)O]VCl2 was immobilized on a polystyrene layer to prepare a copolymer of ethylene and 10‐undecen‐1‐ol (polar PE). Importantly, the core part of the supports (the polystyrene layer) exhibited pronounced transfer resistance to 10‐undecen‐1‐ol; this provided an opportunity to keep the inside iron active sites away from the poisoning of 10‐undecen‐1‐ol. Therefore, UHMWPE was simultaneously synthesized with polar PE by in situ polymerization. Interestingly, the morphological results show that UHMWPE and the polar PE were successfully blended in one nascent polymer. This improved the miscibility of the composites, where most of the chains were difficult to crystallize because of the strong interactions between the PE chains and polar chains. The blends showed an extremely low crystallinity, that is, 9.9%. Finally, the hydrophilic properties of the polymer composites were examined. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

The rheological and morphological properties of blends based on high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) and a commercial ethylene–octene copolymer (EOC) produced by metallocene technology were investigated. The rheological properties were evaluated in steady and dynamic shear experiments at 190°C in shear rates ranging from 90 s?1 to 1500 s?1 and frequency range between 10?1 rad/s and 102 rad/s, respectively. These blends presented a high level of homogeneity in the molten state and rheological behavior was generally intermediate to those of the pure components. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the blends exhibit dispersed morphologies with EOC domains distributed homogeneously and with particle size inferior to 2 μm. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Biopolyesters poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐4‐hydroxybutyrate) with an 11 mol % 4HB content [P(3HB‐co‐11%‐4HB)] and a 33 mol % 4HB content [P(3HB‐co‐33%‐4HB)] were blended by a solvent‐casting method. The thermal properties were investigated with differential scanning calorimetry. The single glass‐transition temperature of the blends revealed that the two components were miscible when the content of P(3HB‐co‐33%‐4HB) was less than 30% or more than 70 wt %. The blends, however, were immiscible when the P(3HB‐co‐33%‐4HB) content was between 30 and 70%. The miscibility of the blends was also confirmed by scanning electron microscopy morphology observation. In the crystallite structure study, X‐ray diffraction patterns demonstrated that the crystallites of the blends were mainly from poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) units. With the addition of P(3HB‐co‐33%‐4HB), larger crystallites with lower crystallization degrees were induced. Isothermal crystallization was used to analyze the melting crystallization kinetics. The Avrami exponent was kept around 2; this indicated that the crystallization mode was not affected by the blending. The equilibrium melting temperature decreased from 144 to 140°C for the 80/20 and 70/30 blends P(3HB‐co‐11%‐4HB)/P(3HB‐co‐33%‐4HB). This hinted that the crystallization tendency decreased with a higher P(3HB‐co‐33%‐4HB) content. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011 相似文献

Natural amorphous polymer poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐4‐hydroxybutyrate) (P3HB4HB) containing 41 mol % of 4HB was blended with poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) with an aim to improve the properties of PHB. The influence of P3HB4HB contents on thermal and mechanical properties of the blends was evaluated with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, stress–strain measurement and thermo gravimetric analyzer. Miscibility of PHB/P3HB4HB blends was mainly decided by the contents of P3HB4HB. When P3HB4HB exceeded 50 wt %, the two polymer phases separated and showed immiscibility. The addition of P3HB4HB did not alter the crystallinity of PHB, yet it diluted the PHB crystalline phase as revealed by DSC studies. DSC and FTIR results showed that the overall crystallinity of the blends decreased remarkably with increasing of P3HB4HB contents. Decreased glass transition temperature and crystallinity imparted desired flexibility for the blends. The ductility of the blends increased progressively with increasing of P3HB4HB content. Thus, the PHB mechanical properties can be modulated by changing the blend composition. P3HB4HB did not significantly improve the thermal stability of PHB, yet it is possible to melt process PHB without much molecular weights loss via blending it with suitable amounts of P3HB4HB. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this work, ethylene‐co‐vinyl acetate (EVA), poly(ethylene‐co‐octene) (POE), and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) blends were processed in a molten state process using a corotating twin‐screw extruder to assess both the balance of mechanical properties and physical interactions in the melt state. Tensile measurements, scanning electron microscopy, and oscillatory rheometry were performed. By means of flow curves, the parameters of the power law as well as the distribution of relaxation times were assessed with the aid of a nonlinear regularization method. The mechanical properties for the EVA‐POE blend approximated the values for POE, while inclusion of PVC shifted the modulus values to those of neat EVA. The rise in modulus was corroborated by the PVC phase dispersion as solid particles that act as a reinforcement for the ternary blend. The rheological properties in the molten state show that the POE does not present molecular entanglement effects and so tends both to diminish the EVA mechanical properties and increase the fluidity of the blend. However, the addition of PVC both restored the EVA typical pseudoplastic feature and promoted the increase in the viscosity and the mechanical properties of the ternary blend. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Blends of chlorinated polyethylene and an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer of various compositions were prepared by mixing in the melt state. Dynamic rheological properties of these blends were studied at different temperatures below, near, and above the TS, the temperature of phase separation, and in a frequency range from 0.01 to 100 rad/s. It is shown that the time–temperature superposition principle is suitable in all investigated temperature ranges. G′ versus G″ representations for the blends were found to be independent of temperature and varying weakly with the composition. Changes in the relaxation spectra H(τ) were discovered which depend on the prehistory of the blend preparation and on thermal conditions in the working unit of a rheometer (increasing the temperature from 140 to 180°C or decreasing the temperature from 180 to 140°C). © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, 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.

Four binary polymer blends containing poly [ethylene‐co‐(acrylic acid)] (PEAA) as one component, and poly(4‐vinyl phenol‐co‐2‐hydroxy ethyl methacrylate) (P4VPh‐co‐2HEMA) or poly(2‐ethyl‐2‐oxazoline) (PEOx) or poly(vinyl acetate‐co‐vinyl alcohol) (PVAc‐co‐VA) or poly (vinylpyrrolidone‐co‐vinyl acetate) (PVP‐co‐VAc) as the other component were prepared and used as a matrix of a series of composite materials. These binary mixtures were either partially or completely miscible within the composition range studied and were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were prepared by a thermal treatment of polyester synthesized through the chemical reaction between ethylene glycol and citric acid over an alumina boat. High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) was used to characterize the synthesized CNTs. Films of composite materials containing CNTs were obtained after evaporation of the solvent used to prepare solutions of the four types of binary polymer blends. Young's moduli of the composites were obtained by thermomechanical analysis at room temperature. Only one glass transition temperature was detected for several compositions on both binary blends and the composite material matrices. Evidence of hydrogen bond formation was recorded for both miscible blends and composite materials. The degree of crystallinity and Young's moduli of the CNT‐polymer composites increased compared to the single polymer blends. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 2008 相似文献

The miscibility of poly(n‐butyl methacrylate‐co‐methacrylic acid) containing 18 mol % methacrylic acid (BMAM‐18) and poly(styrene‐co‐N,N‐dimethyl acrylamide) containing 17 mol % N,N‐dimethyl acrylamide (SAD‐17) was investigated with viscometry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The DSC analysis showed a single glass‐transition temperature for all the blends, indicating that these copolymers were miscible over the entire composition range. The glass‐transition temperatures of these blends were higher than those calculated with the additivity rule. This was characteristic of the presence of specific interactions. The interactions between BMAM‐18 and the tertiary amide of SAD‐17 were studied with FTIR spectroscopy, which revealed that hydrogen‐bonding interactions occurred between the hydroxyl groups of BMAM‐18 and the carbonyl amide of SAD‐17. A new band characterizing these interactions appeared around 1613 cm?1. The quantitative results showed that the fraction of the associated amide increased with an increase in the amount of the acidic BMAM‐18 copolymer. Although BMAM‐18 and SAD‐17 led to homogeneous solutions in butan‐2‐one, as the concentration of N,N‐dimethyl acrylamide increased to 32 mol % [as within the poly(styrene‐co‐N,N‐dimethyl acrylamide) containing 32 mol % N,N‐dimethyl acrylamide], complexation occurred when this latter compound was mixed with BMAM‐18 in butan‐2‐one. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Solvothermal process was successfully developed to graft dibutylmaleate (DBM) onto poly(ethylene‐co‐1‐octene) (POE) with dicumyl peroxide (DCP) as free radical‐initiator. FTIR spectra demonstrate that DBM is successfully grafted onto the backbone of POE by this novel method. The influences of DBM content, DCP concentration, POE concentration, reaction temperature and reaction time on the grafting copolymerization have been investigated in detail through grafting degree (GD). It is worthy to indicate that high grafting degree (above 15%) can be achieved through the one‐pot way when the graft reaction is carried out in 40 mL toluene at 150°C for 5 h with 1.6 g DBM, 6–8 g POE and 0.35 g DCP. This developed solvothermal process is becoming an effective way to prepare POE‐g‐DBM graft copolymers, and can be extended to other systems. In addition, TGA results show that the thermal properties of POE are enhanced after the grafting reaction. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010 相似文献

Naturally amorphous biopolyester poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐4‐hydroxybutyrate) (P3/4HB) containing 21 mol % of 4HB was blended with semi‐crystal poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) with an aim to improve the properties of aliphatic polyesters. The effect of PBS contents on miscibility, thermal properties, crystallization kinetics, and mechanical property of the blends was evaluated by DSC, TGA, FTIR, wide‐angle X‐ray diffractometer (WAXD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and universal material testing machine. The thermal stability of P3/4HB was enhanced by blending with PBS. When PBS content is less than 30 wt %, the two polymers show better miscibility and their crystallization trend was enhanced by each other. The optimum mechanical properties were observed at the 5–10 wt % PBS blends. However, when the PBS content is more than 30 wt %, phase inversion happened. And the two polymers give lower miscibility and poor mechanical properties. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009 相似文献

Poly(ethylene‐co‐vinyl acetate) (EVA‐25) and poly(ethylene‐co‐vinyl acetate‐co‐carbon monoxide) (EVACO‐2410) and their blends with EVACO:EVA ratios of 80:20, 60:40, 40:60, and 20:80 were foamed using CO2. These foams are of interest for applications ranging from footwear to medical devices. Foaming experiments were carried out using 1 mm thick melt‐extruded films in CO2 at a range of pressures (100, 200, and 300 bar) and temperatures (30, 40, 50, and 60 °C). Foamability of the polymers was explored both under isothermal and gradient temperature conditions. Foams of EVACO‐2410 displayed high initial expansions followed by postfoaming relaxation and shrinkage while foams generated from EVA‐25 showed more dimensional stability. Blending EVACO‐2410 with EVA‐25 was explored as an approach to reduce postfoaming relaxation and shrinkage. The surfaces of the foamed samples displayed blistering that was linked to CO2 bubble entrapment and coalescence at the surface. Scanning electron micrographs of the foams generated from blends displayed distinct morphologies reflecting whether the sections were representing the machine‐ or cross‐machine direction of extruded films. In going from EVACO‐2410 to EVA‐25, the cell densities ranged from about 106 to 1010 cells/cm3. Foams with low bulk densities of about 0.11 g/cm3 could be generated. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.
