A promising copolymer of aniline and m-aminophenol: Chemical preparation, novel electric properties and characterization

A copolymer, poly(aniline-co-m-aminophenol), was synthesized chemically. The monomer concentration ratio strongly affects the copolymerization rate and the properties of the copolymer. A solution consisting 0.34 M aniline, 0.012 M m-aminophenol, 0.47 M ammonium peroxydisulfate and 2 M H₂SO₄ was found to be an optimum mixture for the chemical copolymerization. The visible spectra show that a high concentration ratio of m-aminophenol/aniline in the mixture inhibits the chain growth of the copolymer. The spectra of IR and ¹H NMR demonstrate that m-aminophenol units are included in the copolymer chain, which play a key role in extending usable pH region of the copolymer. The result of cyclic voltammograms in a wide potential region of −0.20-0.80 V (vs. SCE) indicates that the copolymer prepared under the optimum condition still held 52.7% of the electrochemical activity when the copolymer electrode was transferred from a solution of pH 4.0 to a solution of pH 11.0, which is much better than that of polyaniline. The X-ray diffraction spectra and images of the copolymers reveal a fact that the changes in the crystal structure and morphology of the copolymers are as a function of the monomer ratio in the mixture. The conductivity of the copolymer prepared under the optimum condition is 2.3 S cm⁻¹ and slightly depends on the pH value.     

Properties of concrete pavements prepared with ferrochromium slag as concrete aggregate

This paper presents the results of investigation related to both the properties of the ferrochromium slag and the standard physical and mechanical properties of Portland cement concrete pavements (PCCP) made with this slag as aggregate, according to the relevant Croatian standards. Slag is formed as a liquid at 1700 °C in the manufacture of the high-carbon ferrochromium metal and, by slow cooling in the air, the slag crystallizes to give a stable CaO–MgO–Al₂O₃–silicate product with mechanical properties similar to basalt. With a proper selection of slag as an artificial aggregate, concrete pavements with compressive strengths, wear resistance and specific weight higher than in those from natural (limestone) aggregate in commercial Portland cement, type CEM II/B-S 42.5 (EN 197), can be made. The 28-day compressive strength of the concretes made with original unfractioned slag and with standard limestone as aggregates (w/c=0.64 and 350 kg/m³) reached the values of 57.00 MPa and 36.70 MPa, respectively. Volume stability, high volume mass, good abrasion resistance to wear and crushability make this reinforced slag concrete suitable for wearing courses of concrete pavements for traffic load classes 1 and 2 where carbonate stone material (limestone) mainly does not meet the Standard Technical Requirements for cement concrete slab pavements according to the relevant Croatian standard.     

Processing and characterization of particles reinforced SiOC composites via pyrolysis of polysiloxane with SiC or/and Al fillers

Polysiloxane loaded with SiC as inert filler, and Al as active filler, was pyrolyzed in nitrogen to fabricate SiOC composites, and the processing and properties of the filled SiOC composites were investigated. Adding SiC fillers could reduce the linear shrinkage of filler-free cured polysiloxane in order to obtain monolithic SiC/SiOC composites. The flexural strength of SiC/SiOC composites reached 201.3 MPa at a SiC filler content of 27.6 vol.%. However, SiC/SiOC composites exhibited poor oxidation resistance, thermal shock resistance and high temperature resistance. Al fillers could react with hydrocarbon generated during polysiloxane pyrolysis at 600 °C and N₂ at 800 °C to form Al₄C₃ and AlN, respectively. The volume expansions resulting from these two reactions were in favor of the reduction in linear shrinkage and the improvement in flexural strength of SiC/SiOC composites. The flexural strength of Al-containing SiC/SiOC composites was 1.36 times that of SiC/SiOC composites without Al at an Al filler content of 20 vol.%. The addition of Al fillers remarkably improved the high temperature resistance and oxidation resistance of SiC/SiOC composites, but not thermal shock resistance.     

Thermally stimulated creep (TSCr) study of viscoelastic behavior and physical aging of a polymeric matrix composite for spacecraft structures

Thermally Stimulated Creep (TSCr) mechanical spectroscopy has been used to analyze molecular movements in KMU‐4lcarbon/epoxy composite material around the glass transition temperature. This technique is powerful to characterize the microstructure and micromechanical properties of the epoxy matrix and their evolution upon thermal aging. Three cooperative submodes have been distinguished by resolving the fine structure of the material complex α‐retardation mode. The elementary processes constituting this mode possess activation enthalpies and preexponential factors that strongly depend on the thermal history of the sample. The activation parameters of the composite are subject to perceptible evolution due to postcuring degradation. The α‐mode associated complex spectrum shifts towards higher temperatures by 27°C as a consequence of a series of quenching in the temperature range 260 to 0°C; the material shows a rise in the fragility and a deterioration in the crack‐growth resistance qualities. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dynamic viscoelasticity of low‐density polyethylene/in‐situ‐grafted carbon black composite

The study on the dynamic viscoelastic properties of grafted carbon black (g‐CB) filled low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) was carried out. Because of formation of CB networking, the characteristic modulus plateau and loss tangent arc appears. Addition of grafting monomer like butyl acrylate (BA) and acroleic acid (AA) enhances the interaction between particles and matrix due to accelerated formation of micronetworking in the composites induced by forming branch chains of AA and BA with multiunit. The decrease of the temperature corresponding to α_c mechanical relaxation together with AA (BA) addition given by the position of loss tangent (tan δ) peak for LDPE is owed to the formation of long‐chain polymer grafted between CB and the matrix, which facilitates the slip of the lamella of LDPE. The influence of maleic anhydride (MA) on enhancing interaction between LDPE and CB is not so pronounced, as compared with AA and BA because of no formation of long chain between CB particle and polymer matrix. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The Kinetics of the Thermal Decomposition of Thermoplastic Polyurethane Elastomers under Thermoplastic Processing Conditions

A theoretical approach to the kinetics of the thermal decomposition of molten thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers, under conditions of thermoplastic processing, is described. On the basis of these considerations, the thermal decomposition in different instruments (melt index analyser and measuring extruder) can be described quantitatively and the various results can be compared. As a result, identical conditions of decomposition of the melt can be defined accurately, thus opening up the possibility of combining experimental values from different instruments. The fundamental kinetic equation obtained for the kinetics of the thermal decomposition of thermoplastic polyurethanes describes the decomposition reaction and the reverse reaction (formation reaction) – which is dependent on the system of measurement and processing – as a function of the molar mass (end‐group concentration) of the original product, determined from the velocity constants for the decomposition reaction and back reaction. The consideration of the limiting value for t → ∞ is in agreement with the equilibrium constant. Consequently, the development of physical characteristic functions of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers – independent of the system of measurement – is possible.

Thermal and crystallization characteristics of poly(ethylene terephthalate) with poly(oxybenzoate‐p‐trimethylene terephthalate) copolymer

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was blended with two different poly(oxybenzoate‐p‐trimethylene terephthalate) copolymers, designated T28 and T64, with the level of copolymer varying from 1 to 15 wt %. All samples were prepared by solution blending in a 60/40 (by weight) phenol/tetrachloroethane solvent at 50°C. The crystallization behavior of the samples was studied by DSC. The results indicate that both T28 and T64 accelerated the crystallization rate of PET in a manner similar to that of a nucleating agent. The acceleration of PET crystallization rate was most pronounced in the PET/T64 blends with a maximum level at 5 wt % of T64. The melting temperatures for the blends are comparable to that of pure PET. The observed changes in crystallization behavior are explained by the effect of the physical state of the copolyester during PET crystallization as well as the amount of copolymer in the blends. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
