Effects of poly(methyl methacrylate)‐based low‐profile additives on the properties of cured unsaturated polyester resins. II. Volume shrinkage characteristics and internal pigmentability

The effects of three series of self‐synthesized poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)‐based low‐profile additives (LPAs), including PMMA, poly(methyl methacrylate‐co‐butyl acrylate), and poly(methyl methacrylate‐co‐butyl acrylate‐co‐maleic anhydride) with different chemical structures and MWs on the volume shrinkage characteristics and internal pigmentability for low‐shrink unsaturated polyester (UP) resins during curing were investigated by an integrated approach of static phase characteristics of the ternary styrene (ST)/UP/LPA system, reaction kinetics, cured‐sample morphology, microvoid formation, and property measurements. The relative volume fraction of microvoids generated during the cure was controlled by the stiffness of the UP resin used, the compatibility of the uncured ST/UP/LPA systems, and the glass‐transition temperature of the LPAs used. On the basis of the Takayanagi mechanical model, the LPA mechanism on volume shrinkage control, which accounted for phase separation and microvoid formation, and factors leading to both a good volume shrinkage control and acceptable internal pigmentability for the molded parts are discussed. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

CO2‐assisted polymer processing: A new alternative for intractable polymers

CO₂‐assisted polymer processing is proposed as an alternative route for intractable and high molecular weight polymers based on the plasticization effects of CO₂ and its direct effect on the melting behavior of semicrystalline polymers. A modified processing system was used to process a variety of polymers in the presence of high‐pressure CO₂. The system includes an extruder that was modified to allow for high pressures created by the injection of CO₂. The new design includes a modified feed section that allows a given mass of polymer to interact with CO₂ before and during the extrusion process. The inherent shear mixing and the presence of CO₂ allow for a specific control over the extrudate morphology. Results suggest that this alternative design provides a new and easy route to melt process high melt viscosity polymers of commercial importance, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fluorinated ethylene propylene copolymer (FEP), and syndiotactic polystyrene (s‐PS). The increased processability of these systems in CO₂ is related to the plasticization effect of CO₂ that was quantified through a depression in the glass‐transition temperature according to the Chow model. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Glass transition and mechanical properties of PLLA and PDLLA‐PGA copolymer blends

The change of the glass transition temperatures (T_g) in the blend of poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) and the copolymers of poly(D,L ‐lactic acid) and poly(glycolic acid) (PDLLA‐PGA) with different D,L ‐lactic acid and glycolic acid composition ratio (50 : 50, 65 : 35, and 75 : 25) was studied by DSC. Dynamic mechanical measurement and tensile testing were performed at various temperatures around T_g of the blend. In the blend of PLLA and PDLLA‐PGA50 (composition ratio of PDLLA and PGA 50 : 50), T_g decreased from that of PLLA (about 58°C) to that of PDLLA‐PGA50 (about 30°C). A single step decrease was observed in the DSC curve around T_g between the weight fraction of PLLA (W(PLLA)) 1.0 and 0.7 (about 52°C) but two‐step changes in the curve are observed between W(PLLA) = 0.6 and 0.3. The T_g change between that of PLLA and that of PDLLA‐PGA and the appearance of two T_gs suggest the existence of PLLA rich amorphous region and PDLLA‐PGA copolymer rich amorphous region in the blend. A single step decrease of E′ occurs at around T_g of the pure PLLA but the two‐step decrease was observed at W(PLLA) = 0.6 and 0.4, supporting the existence of the PLLA rich region and PDLLA‐PGA rich region. Tensile testing for various blends at elevated temperature showed that the extension without yielding occurred above T_g of the blend. Partial miscibility is suggested for PLLA and PDLLA‐PGA copolymer blends. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 93: 2164–2173, 2004     

Properties of modified polyacrylonitrile membranes prepared by copolymerization with hydrophilic monomers for water–ethanol mixture separation

A new kind of terpolymer membrane was employed to separate a permselective water–alcohol mixture. This membrane was prepared via the copolymerization of acrylonitrile, sodium salt styrene sulfonic acid (SStSA), and hydroxyethyl methacrylate in dimethylsulfoxide with azobisisobutyronitrile as an initiator. The reaction mechanism, resultant structure, and polymer composition were confirmed by IR and elemental analysis. The effects of the feed composition on the polymer composition, mechanical properties, thermal properties, and degree of swelling were investigated. It was found that water permeated through the membrane preferentially in a water/alcohol system. The flux increased with the increase of SStSA, but the separation factor decreased drastically with higher SStSA. For a 50 wt % water–ethanol mixture, a flux of 0.65 kg/m² h and a separation factor of 212 were obtained at 30°C when the membrane containing the highest SStSA content was used. The capacities of the metal ions absorbed by the membranes were investigated in the study. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 90: 244–250, 2003     

Polymerization Catalysis in Liquid Propylene: High Activities and Molecular Weights in Propylene/CO Copolymerization Reactions

Summary: The dicationic [(dppp)Pd(NCCH₃)₂](BF₄)₂ catalyst (dppp = 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphino)propane) was applied in a liquid monomer, two phase process for the CO/propene copolymerization reaction. For the first time it was possible to synthesize propene/CO copolymers with an activity up to 7 500 g/(mol · h) and molecular weights of 500 000 g/mol. Activities up to 40 000 g/(mol · h) could be obtained with the use of the unsymmetric catalyst [(CF₃‐dppp)Pd(NCCH₃)](BF₄)₂ (CF₃‐dppp = 1‐diphenylphosphino‐3‐bis[3,5‐di(trifluormethyl)phenyl]phosphinopropane) in homogeneous liquid propene solution.

Synthesis and dielectric properties of polystyrene‐clay nanocomposite materials

Polystyrene‐clay nanocomposite (PsCN) materials were synthesized and their properties of crystallinity, thermal behavior, and dielectric characteristics were investigated. A polymerizable cationic surfactant, [2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl]triphenylphonium bromide, was used for the intercalation of montmorillonite (MMT). The organophilic MMT was prepared by Na⁺‐exchanged MMT and ammonium cations of a cationic surfactant in an aqueous medium. Organophilic styrene monomers were intercalated into the interlayer regions of organophilic clay hosts followed by a free‐radical polymerization. Exfoliation to 2 wt % MMT in the polystyrene (PS) matrix was achieved as revealed by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Thermal properties by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were also studied. The dielectric properties of PsCNs in the form of film with clay loading from 1.0 to 5.0 wt % were measured under frequencies of 100 Hz–1 MHz at 25–70°C. A decreased dielectric constant and low dielectric loss were observed for PsCN materials. The dielectric response at low frequency that originated from dipole orientation was suppressed due to the intercalation of clay materials. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation and the properties of PMR‐type polyimide composites with aluminum nitride

A new polyimide composite was developed relying on the concept of in situ polymerization of monomer reactants polyimide. High thermal conductive, low dielectric constant and dielectric loss, and thermal‐stable composites were successfully demonstrated by incorporating aluminum nitride powder into the polyimide. The weight percent of aluminum nitride was up to 80%. The thermal and dielectric properties follow the classic composite theories. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Water‐assisted injection molding of thermoplastic materials: Effects of processing parameters

The objective of this study was to experimentally investigate the effects of various processing parameters on the water‐assisted injection molding of thermoplastic materials. Experiments were carried out on a lab‐developed water‐assisted injection molding system, which included a water pump, a water injection pin, a water tank equipped with a temperature regulator, and a control circuit. Two types of water injection pins designs were proposed to mold the parts. After molding, the lengths of water penetration in molded parts were measured. The effects of different processing parameters on the lengths of water penetration were determined. It was found that the shrinkage rate and the viscosity of the polymeric materials, and the void shapes of the hollowed cores mainly determined the water‐penetration lengths in molded products. In addition, a comparison has been made between the parts molded by water assisted injection molding and gas‐assisted injection molding. It was found that water‐assisted injection molded parts exhibit less uniform void sizes along the water channel. The cycle time for water‐assisted injection molded parts was shorter than that of conventional injection molded parts and gas‐assisted injection molded parts.
