LDPE/ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) blends were prepared through a pan‐milling reactor in solid state at ambient temperature. The changes of structure and properties of LDPE/UHMWPE blends were investigated by melt flow index, mechanical properties, scanning electronic microscope (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction. SEM photos showed that after pan‐milling treatment the dispersed approximately equiaxed UHMWPE particle became rodlike. DSC measurement illustrated that after pan‐milling treatment, the peaks of UHMWPE shift to lower temperatures while the peaks of LDPE kept stable. The more content of UHMWPE led to more evident shift. X‐ray diffraction analysis showed that the crystallinity of milled LDPE/UHMWPE blends decreased lightly, but the crystalline grain size decreased only for high content UHMWPE blends. The tensile properties of pan‐milled LDPE/UHMWPE blends also achieved significant improvement after pan milling treatment. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Copolymerization of propylene and ethylene and terpolymerization of propylene, ethylene, and 1‐butene were carried out to compare the characteristics of diether‐ and phthalate‐based Ziegler‐Natta catalysts in a reaction system of pilot scale. The ethylene incorporation with the diether‐based catalyst was higher but the 1‐butene incorporation was lower compared with those of the phthalate‐based catalyst. In the case of copolymers from the diether‐based catalyst, melting behavior, determined through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), showed a distinct shoulder peak and lots of nuclei were formed during crystallization. The diether‐based catalyst led to polymers having blockier ethylene sequences compared with those of the phthalate‐based catalyst; the highly crystallizable fraction (HIS) containing blockier ethylene sequences was produced with the diether‐based catalyst. These results seem to be the result of regio‐irregular characteristics of the diether‐based catalyst. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 130: 851‐859, 2013 相似文献

A self‐designed rotation extrusion system was adopted to extrude polyethylene (PE) pipe. The experimental results showed that when the mandrel and die rotated in the same directions during the PE pipe extrusion, apart from the axial stress, all polymer melts in PE pipes were also subjected to the hoop stress so that the formed shish‐kebab crystal in the whole pipe deviated from the axial direction greatly, which was further fixed by the double cooling on both inner and outer walls. As a result, the PE pipe with better resistance to slow crack growth was prepared. As compared to the PE pipe produced by the convention extrusion, the crack initiation time of the PE pipe manufactured by the novel method increased from 27 to 174 h, by 544%. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The role of two different internal donors [a phthalate (diisobutylphthalate) and a 1,3‐diether (2,2‐diisobutyl‐1,3‐dimethoxypropane)] on the formation of surface structure in MgCl2‐supported Ziegler–Natta catalysts and their catalytic performance of propylene polymerization was investigated by comparing and correlating the catalyst structures and the polymerization characteristics. In the catalyst formation, the 1,3‐diether had better affinity for the MgCl2 surface than the phthalate and the 1,3‐diether generated the (110) surface more than the (104) surface while the phthalate generated both the (110) and (104) surfaces of MgCl2. With both donors introduced, the (110) and (104) surfaces were generated simultaneously, although the (110) surface was dominant due to the higher affinity via the 1,3‐diether. In addition, it seemed probable that the active sites formed on the (110) plane showed isospecific characteristics in the presence of a donor while those formed on the (104) plane could be isospecific regardless of a donor. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Following many years of studies on polyethylene blends, several indirect classical experimental methods (DSC, XRD, DMA, cryogen fracture surface using SEM, and Rheological Test in Oscillatory Flow) have been used to evaluate the compatibility between polyethylene blends. Here a study of a high-density polyethylene (HDPE)—ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) system, which evidences that the compatibility of mixtures using these experimental methods does not assure good mechanical performance of the blends. In addition, the potential that these blends can perform mechanically may be overestimated. Based on the theory of healing at a polymer-polymer interface, it was shown that the maximum mechanical performance of the HDPE-UHMWPE blend can be obtained for long time molecular diffusion when the mixtures equilibrium (maximum mixing degree) at the HDPE-UHMWPE interphase is achieved. The degree of mixture at the HDPE-UHMWPE interphase was assessed indirectly by the deformation mechanism that each phase and the interphase plays during the tensile test (at solid state). The advances reported in this paper can contribute to understanding the mechanical performance of different systems formed by compatible polyethylene blends. 相似文献

Linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE) compounds containing 10 wt % graphite fillers were rotationally molded into flat sheets. Flame retardancy was studied using cone calorimeter tests conducted at a radiative heat flux of 35 kW/m2. Only the expandable graphite, an established flame retardant for polyethylene, significantly reduced the peak heat release rate. Compared with the neat polyethylene, it was easier to ignite the LLDPE composites containing carbon black, expandable graphite, and exfoliated graphite. However, rather unexpectedly, the inclusion of flake graphite increased the time to ignition by up to 80%. Simulations conducted with the ThermaKin numerical pyrolysis software suggest that increased reflectivity was mainly responsible for this effect. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Propylene‐based propylene–ethylene random copolymer (PPR) has been widely used in the production of hot‐water pipes. To further improve its toughness and thermal resistance, β‐nucleating agents (β‐NAs) are frequently incorporated. In this study, PPR containing 5.6 mol % ethylene units was modified by two kinds of β‐NAs, that is, calcium pimelate and N,N′‐dicyclohexylterephthalamide. The notched Izod impact strength of PPR increased with the addition of the β‐NAs. Drastically different toughening effects were found between the two β‐NAs. The structure of PPR with and without a β‐NA was investigated by calorimetry, X‐ray diffraction, and thermomechanical analysis. The results indicated that the relative fraction of β crystals (kβ) in the injection‐molded specimens was determined by the type and content of β‐NA. The relationship between kβ and the impact toughness was summarized. A critical value for kβ (0.68) was identified for the brittle–ductile transition of PPR. PPR with β‐NA having a kβ greater than 0.68 displayed a higher impact strength than the other mixtures. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016 , 133, 42930. 相似文献

The impact of chitosan on the natural weathering behavior of two blends obtained by mixing either polyethylene (PE) with chitosan or PE, chitosan and polyethylene‐graft‐maleic anhydride (PEgMA) as a compatibilizer is analyzed. In order to follow the weathering behavior of both the uncompatibilized and compatibilized systems, the blend films are exposed to outdoor conditions for 6 months. The weathering behavior of the films is monitored by mechanical tests, spectroscopic Fourier transform infrared, and morphological analyses at different weathering periods of time. The presence of chitosan in the blends accelerates significantly the degradation of the films. Apparently, PEgMA also accelerates the photo‐oxidation rate of the films. This behavior appears to be related to the photo‐oxidative instability of maleic anhydride, and also to the better dispersion of chitosan in the PE matrix, which is due to the interactions in the PE/chitosan interface caused by the addition of the compatibilizer. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A feasibility study on using Raman spectral imaging for visualization and analysis of filler distribution in chalk filled polypropylene samples has been carried out. The spectral images were acquired using a Raman spectrometer with 785 nm light source. Eight injection‐molded samples with concentration of chalk 25% and 50% were used in the experiment. Two methods for spectral unmixing were applied to the images and both revealed almost identical distribution maps over the samples’ surface. The maps also correlated with the ones obtained for several separated peaks, typical for the chalk and the polypropylene. The revealed distribution patterns show the same trend for each concentration level and agree with theoretical explanation of plastic flow into an injection molding tool. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this work, NIRS is employed to provide compositions of α‐olefin copolymers, allowing for evaluation of the effects of certain key process variables on the final NIR spectral responses of obtained polymer materials. This work also introduces a new temperature programmed analytical technique, which combines NIRS measurements with partial fractionation of α‐olefin copolymers. The new proposed technique can be used for evaluation of polyolefin compositions, as presented here for poly(propene/1‐butene) copolymers. Besides, preliminary results obtained from thermal fractionation experiments indicate that this new proposed experimental technique can be employed for characterization of comonomer sequence distributions of α‐olefin copolymers. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dodecyl amine (DA) functionalized graphene oxide(DA‐GO) and dodecyl amine functionalized reduced graphene oxide (DA‐RGO) were produced by using amidation reaction and chemical reduction, then two kinds of well dispersed DA‐GO/high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) and DA‐RGO/HDPE nanocomposites were prepared by solution mixing method and hot‐pressing process. Thermogravimetric, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffractions, and Raman spectroscopy analyses showed that DA was successfully grafted onto the graphene oxide surface by uncleophilic substitution and the amidation reaction, which increased the intragallery spacing of graphite oxide, resulting in the uniform dispersion of DA‐GO and DA‐RGO in the nonpolar xylene solvent. Morphological analysis of nanocomposites showed that both DA‐GO and DA‐RGO were homogeneously dispersed in HDPE matrix and formed strong interfacial interaction. Although the crystallinity, dynamic mechanical, gas barrier, and thermal stability properties of HDPE were significantly improved by addition of small amount of DA‐GO or DA‐RGO, the performance comparison of DA‐GO/HDPE and DA‐RGO/HDPE nanocomposites indicated that the reduction of DA‐GO was not necessary because the interfacial adhesion and aspect ratio of graphene sheets had hardly changed after reduction, which resulting in almost the same properties between DA‐GO/HDPE and DA‐RGO/HDPE nanocomposites. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of immiscible polyamide 6 (PA6) on the melt rheology and stretch‐induced crystal transformation of poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) matrix is reported. PA6 is dispersed as submicron droplets in the PVDF matrix, responsible for significant enhancement in the melt elasticity. Nevertheless, crystallization habits of PVDF matrix from melt are little affected by submicron PA6 droplets, and the α‐form of PVDF prevails in the blends. Upon mechanical stretching, the α‐form is converted to the β‐form, which is remarkably reduced with the increasing of PA6 content in the blends. It could be correlated with the decreased tensile stress in the presence of submicron PA6 droplets that act as stress concentrators. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

The material consisting of alternating layers of a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/polystyrene (PS) blend (90/10 wt/wt) and pure poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) was prepared through layer‐multiplying extrusion. The LLDPE/PS light‐scattering films were obtained by peeling off the PMMA layers. Morphological examination demonstrated that the PS particles were dispersed as spherical domains in all the LLDPE/PS layers and the average diameter increased from skin to core layers. When a laser beam was vertically incident on the individual layers, the one located in the skin layer had a stronger light‐scattering pattern than that located in the core layer. All the LLDPE/PS films had a similar transmittance close to 90%, while the haze tended to decrease from the skin layer toward the core layer. The Mie's scattering theory was applied to analyze the influence of morphological evolution on the light scattering behaviors. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Partially sulfonated poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoro propylene)/partially sulfonated polyaniline (SPVdF‐co‐HFP/SPAni) binary blend membranes have shown promising results in terms of low methanol permeability and high membrane selectivity compared to Nafion‐117 membrane. However, the proton conductivity and IEC of this binary blend membrane was much lower than Nafion‐117. It was found that incorporation of minimal quantity of Nafion within SPVdF‐co‐HFP/SPAni blend membrane at a constituent weight % ratio of SPVdF‐co‐HFP:SPAni:Nafion = 50:40:10 induced significant improvements in ion‐exchange capacity (IEC), proton conductivity and tensile strength over that of the binary blend membrane. In addition, the SPVdF‐co‐HFP/SPAni/Nafion ternary blend membrane exhibited much lower methanol permeability, higher membrane and relative selectivities and comparable IEC to Nafion‐117. In effect, presence of minimal quantity of Nafion induced significant positive attributes to the ternary blend membrane; and assisted in reaching a balance between material cost and properties. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The solid equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) process on polypropylene (PP)/high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) blends was carried out. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the sample structures. Results showed that ECAE process could make PP/HDPE blends to produce orientation structure. Impact performance of ECAE‐PP/HDPE samples after ECAE process improved remarkably, especially for ECAE‐PP/HDPE (90/10)‐O whose impact strength reached 91.91 kJ/m2, 18.1 times higher than that of pure PP and 11.2 times higher than that of PP/HDPE (90/10). The mechanism of enhancing between HDPE and PP was discussed. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 39759. 相似文献

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effects of a titanate coupling agent on the mechanical properties, moisture absorption, and thermal conductivity of talc‐filled high‐density polyethylene (HDPE). Talc (0–35 wt %) was used as reinforcement particulate filler in an HDPE matrix and samples were prepared in a micro‐compounder and an injection molding machine. Isopropyl tri(dioctyl)phosphate titanate (0.5 wt %) was used as coupling agent. Composites with and without coupling agent were evaluated for changes in mechanical and thermo‐physical properties, morphology, and void content. Addition of the titanate coupling agent most often resulted in an increase in stiffness and tensile strength. Furthermore, both the void content and the elongation at break of composites were reduced. Results also showed that the coupling agent had no effects on the thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and specific heat capacity of the composites. In addition, it was observed that the coupling agent was more effective at low concentrations of filler. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 40449. 相似文献

Blends of polypropylene (PP) and poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) having a PP/EVA viscosity ratio of 240 were prepared by melt mixing. EVA concentration varies from 2 to 26 wt%. All blends display two-phase structure with quasi-spherical EVA domains evenly distributed in the PP matrix. The diameter of the domains increases with EVA concentration from about 0.4 to 6 μm. Each component crystallizes separately. The melting temperature of PP phase is no noticeably affected by the presence of EVA while the crystallization one gradually increases by 4°C. The dynamic moduli of the blends are well predicted by the emulsion model of Palierne, revealing that the system PP/EVA has a very small interfacial tension. The thermal degradation behavior of the blends, determined by thermogravimetry, shows that the deacylation process in EVA is not affected by the presence of PP while the beginning of the degradation process of PP is increased by up to 20°C due to the presence of EVA. This effect goes along with an increment in the maximum degradation rate of PP. 相似文献

The rheological properties of blends consisting of a long chain branched low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) and two linear low‐density polyethylenes (LLDPE) are studied in detail. The weight fractions of the LDPE used in the blends are 5 and 15%. The linear viscoelastic characterization is performed at different temperatures for all the blends to check thermorheological behavior and miscibility in the melt state. Blends containing metallocene LLDPE as the matrix display thermorheologically complex behavior and show evidences of immiscibility in the melt state. The linear viscoelastic response exhibits the typical additional relaxation ascribed to the form deformation mechanism of dispersed phase droplets (LDPE). The Palierne model satisfactorily describes the behavior of these blends in the whole frequency range explored. However, those blends with Ziegler‐Natta LLDPE as the matrix fulfill the time‐temperature superposition, but exhibit a broad linear viscoelastic response, further than the expected for an immiscible system with a sharp interface. The rheological analysis reveals that, in addition to the droplets form relaxation, another mechanism at lower frequencies exists. The broad linear response of the blends with the Ziegler‐Natta LLDPE can be explained by hypothesizing a strong interaction between the high molecular weight linear fraction of the LLDPE and the low molecular weight (almost linear) chains of the LDPE phase, forming a thick interface with its own viscoelastic properties. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polylactide (PLA)/linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE), (PLA/LLDPE), blends and nanocomposites were prepared by melt mixing process with a view to fine tune the properties. Two different commercial‐grade nanoclays, Cloisite® 30B (30B) and Cloisite® 15A (15A) were used. A terpolymer of ethylene, butylacrylate (BA) and glycidylmethacrylate (GMA) was used as a reactive compatibilizer. The influence of type of clay on the morphology and mechanical properties of two PLA‐rich and LLDPE‐rich blend systems was studied. Morphological analysis using X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy revealed that the organoclay layers were dispersed largely at the interface of PLA/LLDPE. Decreasing the PLA content changed the morphology from droplet‐in matrix to coarse co‐continuous. In comparison with 30B, due to less affinity of 15A towards compatibilizer and PLA phase, the reduction of the size of dispersed phase was less than that of the equivalent 30B composites. The mechanical results demonstrated that the composites containing both types of organoclay exhibited higher modulus but lower elongation and tensile strength as compared to the neat blends. The injection molded nanocomposites were shown to have the sequential fracture behavior during tensile test. The tensile testing results on the neat blends and nanocomposites showed significant increase in elongation at break and decrease in the modulus as compared with the neat PLA. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
