In this work, we chemically modified linear low‐density polyethylene with maleic anhydride in the molten state using, in a first step, different doses of ultraviolet irradiation to generate hydroperoxide groups, which were highly reactive at the processing temperature. Then, in a second reactive extrusion step, maleic anhydride was grafted to the linear low‐density polyethylene under different processing conditions. Characterization of the modified and unmodified linear low‐density polyethylene material was performed with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and nuclear magnetic resonance. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Our main objective of this study was to study the parameters affecting the free‐radical melt grafting of maleic anhydride (MA) onto linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE) with dicumyl peroxide (DCP) in an internal mixer. The degree of grafting (DG) was measured with titrometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The extent of chain‐branching/crosslinking was evaluated with gel content and melt flow index measurements. The flow behavior and melt viscoelastic properties of the grafted samples were measured by using rheometric mechanical spectrometry. Feeding order, DCP and MA concentration, reaction temperature, rotor speed, and grade of LLDPE were among parameters studied. The results show that the reactant concentration (MA and DCP) played a major role in the determination of the grafting yield and the extent of the chain‐branching/crosslinking as competitive side reactions. The order of feeding also had an appreciable effect on the DG and the side reactions. Increasing the rotor speed increased the grafting yield and reduced side reactions by means of intensification of the mixing of reactants into the polyethylene (PE) melt. Chain‐branching dominated the side reactions for lower molecular weight PE, whereas for higher molecular weight PE, chain‐branching led to crosslinking and gel formation. The results of the melt viscoelastic measurements on the grafted samples provided great insight into the understanding of the role of influential parameters on the extent of side reactions and resulting changes in the molecular structure of the grafted samples. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Blends of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were prepared with different weight compositions with a plasticorder at 240°C at a rotor speed of 64 rpm for 10 min. The physicomechanical properties of the prepared blends were investigated with special reference to the effects of the blend ratio. Graft copolymers, that is, LDPE‐grafted acrylic acid and LDPE‐grafted acrylonitrile, were prepared with γ‐irradiation. The copolymers were melt‐mixed in various contents (i.e., 3, 5, 7, and 9 phr) with a LDPE/PET blend with a weight ratio of 75/25 and used as compatibilizers. The effect of the compatibilizer contents on the physicomechanical properties and equilibrium swelling of the binary blend was investigated. With an increase in the compatibilizer content up to 7 phr, the blend showed an improvement in the physicomechanical properties and reduced equilibrium swelling in comparison with the uncompatibilized one. The addition of a compatibilizer beyond 7 phr did not improve the blend properties any further. The efficiency of the compatibilizers (7 phr) was also evaluated by studies of the phase morphology (scanning electron microscopy) and thermal properties (differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis). © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A comparative study of the structure and properties of two‐phase blends of polyamide 6 (PA6) and low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) modified in the course of reactive extrusion, by grafting of itaconic acid (IA) without neutralization of carboxyl groups (LDPE‐g‐IA) and with neutralized carboxyl groups (LDPE‐g‐IA?M+) was carried out. It was shown that 30 wt % of LDPE‐g‐IA?M+ introduced to PA6 resulted in blends of higher Charpy impact strength compared with that of PA6/LDPE‐g‐IA blends. The maximum increase was achieved when Mg(OH)2 was used as a neutralizing agent. The blend morphology has a two‐phase structure with blurred interphases because of increased adhesion between the phases. The neutralization of carboxyl groups in grafted IA did not lead to two‐phase morphology of blends, which had a negative influence on the mechanical properties. It is believed that the differences in the impact strength were caused by the influence of the added neutralizing agents on the structure of interphases, which depends on both the interfaces adhesion and structural effects resulting from the nucleating behavior of the neutralizing agent. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The rheological behavior, thermal properties, and molecular mobility of a series of maleic anhydride (MA) grafted high‐density polyethylenes were characterized and evaluated. The rheological behavior was studied with a Haake minilaboratory. The viscosity of the samples in their melt state decreased with an increase in the graft yield, and this could be attributed to the higher molecular mobility for samples with a higher degree of grafting. The thermal properties were investigated with dynamic mechanical analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. Positron annihilation lifetime measurements were used to study the effect of the degree of grafting on the chemical environment and the atomic‐scale free‐volume properties. It was found that the grafted MA group played a significant chemical inhibition role in positronium formation when the graft yield was low. The results also indicated that the higher the degree of grafting was, the broader the free‐volume distribution was. The relationship between the microstructure and rheological behavior is discussed. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008 相似文献

Linear low‐density polyethylenes and low‐density polyethylenes of various compositions were melt‐blended with a batch mixer. The blends were characterized by their melt strengths and other rheological properties. A simple method for measuring melt strength is presented. The melt strength of a blend may vary according to the additive rule or deviate from the additive rule by showing a synergistic or antagonistic effect. This article reports our investigation of the parameters controlling variations of the melt strength of a blend. The reciprocal of the melt strength of a blend correlates well with the reciprocal of the zero‐shear viscosity and the reciprocal of the relaxation time of the melt. An empirical equation relating the maximum increment (or decrement) of the melt strength to the melt indices of the blend components is proposed. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The grafting of a polymer can lead to the improvement and modification of the polymer and thus expand its applications. Grafting methods include solution grafting in organic solvents, melt grafting at high temperatures, and light grafting with radioactive sources. These methods have their advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantages include waste treatment, consumption of energy, and so on. In this study, a hydrothermal process which is called the green approach, was developed to prepare graft copolymers. The effect of various factors on the grafting degree was investigated in detail. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008 相似文献

The mechanical and electric performances of linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE) highly loaded with aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) by the grafting of methacrylic acid (MAA) to the LLDPE matrix were studied. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that the grafting reaction occurred by melt grafting. Mechanical testing of composites of LLDPE highly loaded with Al(OH)3 showed that the strength and elongation at break were significantly improved after the grafting of MAA to the LLDPE matrix. The results of the electric tests showed similar trends. The results of scanning electron microscopy showed better decentralization of Al(OH)3 loaded in the LLDPE matrix in the tensile fractured surface and a transition layer between Al(OH)3 and the LLDPE matrix in the fractured surface after the grafting of MAA to the LLDPE matrix. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effects of polyethylene‐grafted maleic anhydride (PE‐g‐MA) on the thermal properties, morphology, and tensile properties of blends of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) and corn starch were studied with a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Instron Universal Testing Machine, respectively. Corn starch–LDPE blends with different starch content and with or without the addition of PE‐g‐MA were prepared with a lab‐scale twin‐screw extruder. The crystallization temperature of LDPE–corn starch–PE‐g‐MA blends was similar to that of pure LDPE but higher than that of LDPE–corn starch blends. The interfacial properties between corn starch and LDPE were improved after PE‐g‐MA addition, as evidenced by the structure morphology revealed by SEM. The tensile strength and elongation at break of corn starch–LDPE–PE‐g‐MA blends were greater than those of LDPE–corn starch blends, and their differences became more pronounced at higher starch contents. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In the presence of dicumyl peroxide, the compatibility of thermal plasticized starch/linear low‐density polyethylene (TPS/LLDPE) blends using maleic anhydride (MAH) as compatibilizer was investigated. The thermal plasticization of starch and its compatibilizing modification with LLDPE was accomplished in a single‐screw extruder at the same time. We prepared three types of blends containing different percentages of TPS and MAH. The content of MAH based on LLDPE was 0, 1, and 2 wt %, respectively. The morphology of the blends was studied by SEM. It was found that, with the addition of MAH, the blends have good interfacial adhesion and finely dispersed TPS and LLDPE phases, which is reflected in the mechanical and thermal properties of the blends. The blends containing MAH showed higher tensile strength, elongation at break, and thermal stability than those of blends without MAH. The rheologic properties of the blends demonstrated the existence of processing. Finally, the dynamic thermal mechanical analysis results indicated that, with the addition of MAH, the compatibility between TPS and LLDPE in the blends was substantially improved. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The radiation‐induced graft polymerization of N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone onto low‐density polyethylene films was conducted with γ radiation by a simultaneous technique. The grafted copolymer was modified with cinnamonitrile or benzylidene malononitrile. The modified and grafted films were amidoximated with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in a basic medium. However, during amidoximation, the benzylidene malononitrile was cyclized to yield isoxazole ring through an addition to the nitrile group in its structure, whereas the nitrile groups of cinnamonitrile were converted into amidoxime groups. The swelling behavior of the grafted copolymers and copolymers grafted and modified either with cinnamonitrile or benzylidene malononitrile was studied. Amidoximated and grafted films and copolymer–metal complexes of Cu(II) were prepared and characterized. The effect of the isoxazole ring on polymeric materials was also investigated. These films were characterized with different analysis techniques, such as infrared, ultraviolet (UV), elemental analysis, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, and electron spin resonance (ESR). The UV and ESR analyses revealed that the geometric structure of Cu(II) was square‐planar. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the grafted and modified films to determine the changes in the surface morphology. Morphological changes clearly appeared for both complexed and isoxazole films because of the increase in their crystallinity. The thermal stability of different films was investigated with thermogravimetric analysis. The improvement of the copolymer by modification with cinnamonitrile derivatives showed great promise for some practical applications, such as metal recovery by complexation or the use of isoxazole in medicine. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effects of screw configurations, that is, the staggering angles and disc widths of the kneading blocks, on grafting reactive extrusion for maleic anhydride grafted low-density polyethylene were investigated in a corotating twin-screw extruder. Samples were collected from three positions along the screw and the die exit. The grafting degree (GD) of the specimens was evaluated by titration. It was found that the kneading block configurations had a significant influence on the grafting reactive extrusion. In addition, another three groups of extrusion experiments were performed to explore the intrinsic relationship between the GD, the degree of fill in the screw channel, the residence time distribution (RTD), and the mixing intensity in various screw configurations. The experimental results indicated that the location of the melting endpoint significantly affected the position at which the reaction began; the degree of fill, RTD, and mixing performance of the screw played important roles in the grafting reaction. The reverse kneading blocks with a narrow disc width, which had a high degree of fill and good mixing capacity, enhanced the increase in GD along the screw during the reactive extrusion. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dimethyl 2‐methacryloxyethylphosphonate, its monosodium salt, and methyl 2‐methacryloyloxyethylphosphonic acid were synthesized, characterized, and grafted onto low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) powder under melt‐processing conditions in a Rheocord batch mixer (Karlsruhe, Germany). We studied the graft copolymerization onto LDPE in the presence of free‐radical initiators, benzoyl peroxide, and dicumyl peroxide, and we performed grafting onto ozone‐pretreated LDPE without any free‐radical initiator. Effects of reaction time, initiator concentration, and reaction temperature were studied. The possibility of modifying LDPE in the molten state with phosphonated methacrylates was clearly demonstrated. Graft copolymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, and water contact angles. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An investigation was undertaken on application of dilute chitosan solutions modified by tyrosinase‐catalyzed reaction with 3,4‐dihydroxyphenetylamine (dopamine) to adhesion of the low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) plates surface‐grafted with hydrophilic monomers. Tensile shear adhesive strength effectively increased with an increase in the grafted amount for methacrylic acid‐grafted and acrylic acid‐grafted LDPE (LDPE‐g‐PMAA and LDPE‐g‐PAA) plates. In particular, substrate breaking was observed at higher grafted amounts for LDPE‐g‐PAA plates. The increase in the amino group concentration of the chitosan solutions and molecular mass of the chitosan samples led to the increase in adhesive strength. Adhesive strength of the PE‐g‐PMAA plates prepared at lower monomer concentrations sharply increased at lower grafted amounts, which indicates that the formation of shorter grafted PMAA chains is an effective procedure to increase adhesive strength at lower grafted amounts. Infrared measurements showed that the reaction of quinone derivatives enzymatically generated from dopamine with carboxyl groups was an important factor to increase adhesive strength in addition to the formation of the grafted layers with a high water absorptivity. The above‐mentioned results suggested that enzymatically modified dilute chitosan solutions can be applied to an adhesive to bond polymer substrates. The emphasis is on the fact that water is used as a solvent for preparation of chitosan solutions and photografting without any organic solvents. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The thermal and mechanical properties of uncrosslinked three‐component blends of linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE), low‐density polyethylene (LDPE), and a hard, paraffinic Fischer–Tropsch wax were investigated. A decrease in the total crystallinity with an increase in both LDPE and wax contents was observed. It was also observed that experimental enthalpy values of LLDPE in the blends were generally higher than the theoretically expected values, whereas in the case of LDPE the theoretically expected values were higher than the experimental values. In the presence of higher wax content there was a good correlation between experimental and theoretically expected enthalpy values. The DSC results showed changes in peak temperature of melting, as well as peak width, with changing blend composition. Most of these changes are explained in terms of the preferred cocrystallization of wax with LLDPE. Young's modulus, yield stress, and stress at break decreased with increasing LDPE content, whereas elongation at yield increased. This is in line with the decreasing crystallinity and increasing amorphous content expected with increasing LDPE content. Deviations from this behavior for samples containing 10% wax and relatively low LDPE contents are explained in terms of lower tie chain fractions. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In an effort to impart biodegradability, polyethylene (PE) was modified through the graft copolymerization of vinyl monomers such as acrylamide (AAm) and acrylic acid (AAc) by a phase‐transfer‐catalyst method. The grafting percentage of AAm and AAc for PE was found to be dependent on the dibenzoyl peroxide concentration, monomer concentration, time, temperature, and concentration of the phase‐transfer catalyst. Some AAm‐ and AAc‐grafted PE samples were prepared by chemical, UV, and γ‐radiation methods. The biodegradation of samples of PE, polyethylene‐g‐polyacrylamide, and polyethylene‐g‐poly(acrylic acid) prepared by all these methods was studied. The weight loss of the samples over a period of time was observed with soil‐burial tests. The grafted samples prepared by the phase‐transfer‐catalyst method showed better biodegradation results than those prepared by other methods of grafting. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The mechanical properties and water absorption of low‐density polyethylene/sawdust composites were investigated. The relationship between the filler content and the composite properties was also studied. Different degrees of esterification of the sawdust with maleic anhydride were obtained with different reaction times. The experimental results demonstrated that the treatment of sawdust by maleic anhydride enhanced the tensile and flexural strengths. The water absorption for maleic anhydride treated sawdust indicated that it was more hydrophobic than untreated sawdust. The effects of the addition of benzoyl peroxide during the preparation of composite samples on the water absorption and mechanical properties were also evaluated. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The photolamination of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) by bulk photografting is described, along with a discussion of the adhesion mechanism. HDPE can be photolaminated very easily with a thin poly(acrylic acid) layer, photopolymerized from acrylic acid, with very strong adhesion obtained after a short time of UV irradiation; the adhesion failure mode is polyethylene breakage. Thicker HDPE sheets require longer irradiation times for strong adhesion. Methacrylic acid or hydroxyethyl methacrylate provides no adhesion of HDPE at all after irradiation. When glycidyl acrylate is used alone between HDPE sheets, the peel strength of the photolaminated polyethylene is only approximately 320 N/m, but when glycidyl acrylate or hydroxyethyl methacrylate is grafted with acrylic acid, very good adhesion can be obtained. It is proposed that stronger adhesion is produced by a less branched grafted chain structure, which permits much more chain entanglement. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A temperature‐responsive polymer, poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm), was grafted onto porous polyethylene membranes by a plasma‐induced graft polymerization technique. A wide range of grafting was achieved through variations in the grafting conditions, including the postpolymerization temperature, time, monomer concentration, and graft‐reaction medium. The active species induced by plasma treatment was proven to be long‐living via a postpolymerization time of 95 h. Different solvent compositions, that is, water, methanol, benzene, and water/methanol, were used as reaction media, and water showed a much higher polymerization rate than the organic solvents. Based on the hydrophilicity of the active species, a mechanism explaining the solvent effect in plasma‐induced graft polymerization was examined. Characterizations by scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and micro Fourier transform infrared showed that the grafted polymers were located on both the outer surface and inside pores of the membranes. The XPS analysis also confirmed that the polar amide groups tended to distribute more outward when grafted PNIPAAm was in its expanding state than when it was in its shrinking state. Water permeation experiments showed that the permeability of the grafted membranes varied dramatically with a slight temperature change in the vicinity of the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of PNIPAAm. The effective pore radii of the grafted membranes above and below the LCST could be depicted by Hagen‐Poiseuille's law. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 89: 3180–3187, 2003 相似文献

Low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) was filled with blends of different proportions of two sizes of calcium carbonate (CaCO3; 600 and 2500 mesh). The torque of the LDPE/CaCO3 samples was measured with a torque rheometer. The results showed that the process torque values of the LDPE/CaCO3 samples obviously decreased when LDPE was filled with a blend of two sizes of CaCO3 (600‐ and 2500‐mesh CaCO3 blend) in comparison with samples filled with CaCO3 of a single size (600 or 2500 mesh). When the ratio of 600‐mesh CaCO3 to the total CaCO3 was in the range of 40–60 wt %, the lowest torque value of the LDPE/CaCO3 samples was achieved. When the content of CaCO3 in a sample was 30 wt %, LDPE filled with CaCO3 of different size distributions showed the largest decrease in the torque ratio in comparison with the samples filled with CaCO3 of a single size. The torques of LDPE samples filled with CaCO3 of a single size and those filled with CaCO3 of different size distributions at different temperatures were also studied. The results showed that the flow activation energy and flow activation entropy of LDPE samples filled with CaCO3 of different size distributions increased obviously. The increase in the flow activation entropy was used to explain the phenomenon of the process torque decreasing for LDPE samples filled with CaCO3 of different size distributions. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
