Self‐assembled structures in polystyrene‐block‐polyisoprene‐blend‐polystyrene and polystyrene‐block‐poly(methyl methacrylate)‐blend‐polystyrene or ‐blend‐poly(methyl methacrylate) in the strong segregation regime

This study deals with the investigation of microphase‐separated morphology and phase behaviour in blends of polystyrene‐block‐polyisoprene with homopolystyrene and blends of polystyrene‐block‐poly(methyl methacrylate) with homopoly(methyl methacrylate) or homopolystyrene in the strong segregation regime using small‐angle X‐ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy as a function of composition, molecular weight of homopolymers, r_M and temperature. Parameter r_M = M_H/M_C (where M_H is the molecular weight of homopolymer and M_C that of the corresponding block copolymer) was selected to encompass behaviour of the chains denoted as a ‘wet brush’ (i.e. r_M < 1). The relative domain spacing D/D_o increases in the regime 0 < r_M?1 with increasing concentration of homopolymer w_P and increasing r_M but depends on the specific implemented morphology. We tested a new approximate D/D_o versus w_P relation in the strong segregation regime using block copolymers of high molecular weights. It is shown that the parameters r_M and χ^3/2N determine the slope of the D/D_o versus w_P relation in the strong segregation regime and the new approximation generally matches the experimental data better than the approximations used so far.

Analysis of Methanol Production from Biomass Gasification

A biomass‐based methanol production process was investigated. The process consists of a biomass gasifier, steam reformer, and methanol synthesis reactor as the main units. Reactors were simulated by applying the kinetic models previously developed and the process was analyzed based on the simulation results. The key parameters, the equivalence ratio in biomass gasification, the temperature in steam reforming, and the recycle of hydrogen in methanol synthesis were identified. These parameters affect the methanol production. The process analysis indicates that the optimal combinations of the parameters can greatly enhance the methanol production and the thermodynamic efficiency. Finally, the elemental analysis for carbon and hydrogen along the process was carried out.     

Calculation of alcohol‐acetone‐cellulose acetate ternary phase diagram and their relevance to membrane formation

ABSTRACT Alcohol‐acetone‐cellulose acetate phase diagrams incorporated with methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol as nonsolvents are calculated according to a new form of the Flory–Huggins equation. Nonsolvent–cellulose acetate interaction parameters are measured by swelling experiments. Concentration‐dependent nonsolvent–solvent interaction parameters are obtained by vapor–liquid equilibrium and the Wilson equation. It is shown that alcohol is a week coagulant compared with water, and water > methanol > ethanol > isopropanol for cellulose acetate. The phase diagrams characteristic of acetone‐cellulose acetate combined with water, methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol as nonsolvents is different, which leads to the different morphological structure of a cellulose acetate membrane. The structure of a water coagulated membrane has large macrovoids from liquid–liquid phase separation. A methanol coagulated membrane has a honeycomb‐like structure from spinodal microphase separation. An ethanol or isopropanol coagulated membrane has a thicker, dense top layer from the delay time phase separation. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 80: 1650–1657, 2001     

Influence of isomer ratio and ring substituents in decomposition activation energies of α,α,α′,α′‐tetrasubstituted dibenzyls

Diethyl‐2,3‐dicyano‐2,3‐di‐(X‐substituted phenyl) succinates (X = p‐OCH₃, p‐CH₃, p‐Cl, H, p‐NO₂) can initiate the free‐radical polymerization of styrene. The decomposition rate constant and activation energy were measured by means of a dilatometer, and the results showed that they were strongly dependent on the ratio of meso‐ and dl‐isomers in the polysubstituted dibenzyl compounds and the properties of the ring substituents. On the other hand, it was found that the polystyrenes, which were obtained by initiation with hydrogen, had a much larger average molecular weight than that with p‐OCH₃ and p‐CH₃. The experimental phenomena were correlated with the structure of the radical resulting from hydrogen. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 81: 2964–2971, 2001

Effect of heat treatments and homogenisation pressure on the acid gelation properties of recombined whole milk

The homogenisation pressure and the order of heating and homogenisation were varied in the preparation of recombined whole milks. The fat globule sizes decreased from ∼2 to 0.2 μm as the homogenisation pressure increased from 50 to 850 bar for samples heated before (HEHO) or after (HOHE) homogenisation. For acid gels prepared from the milks, small increases in elastic modulus of the set gels were observed with decreasing fat globule size. The yield strain of the acid gels increased linearly with decreasing fat globule size, and HOHE gels had higher yield strains than HEHO gels. The yield stress of the set gels increased with decreasing fat globule size, and the yield stress for HOHE gels were higher than the HEHO gels. Confocal micrographs of the gels revealed an almost continuous protein network structure without pores for gels from milks treated at low homogenisation pressures, and the large fat globules did not actively interact with the strands in the gel network. In contrast, a porous protein network structure with distinct strands was observed for the samples treated at high homogenisation pressures, and the small fat globules were intimately involved in the strands in the network structure. The HOHE gels had a more porous protein network with thicker strands than the HEHO gels. The size of the fat globules and their incorporation in the protein network during acidification is proposed to affect the acid gel structure and properties.

Al2O3/TiB2/Al复合材料的微观结构和高温力学性能

以细雾化铝粉和TiB₂颗粒为原料,通过粉末冶金和热轧制制备微米TiB₂和纳米Al₂O₃颗粒增强铝基复合材料。室温时,由于TiB₂和Al₂O₃的综合强化作用,Al₂O₃/TiB₂/Al复合材料的屈服强度和抗拉强度分别为258.7 MPa和279.3 MPa,测试温度升至350℃时,TiB₂颗粒的增强效果显著减弱,原位纳米Al₂O₃颗粒与位错的交互作用使得复合材料的屈服强度和抗拉强度达到98.2MPa和122.5 MPa。经350℃退火1000 h后,由于纳米Al₂O₃对晶界的钉扎作用抑制晶粒长大,强度和硬度未发生显著的降低。
