Mechanism of paper wet strength development by polycarboxylic acids with different molecular weight and glutaraldehyde/poly(vinyl alcohol)

In our previous research, we found that crosslinking paper using poly(carboxylic acid)s with different molecular weight or using the combination of glutaraldehyde and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) significantly improved the wet strength of the paper. In this research, we studied the mechanism of paper wet strength development using crosslinking systems with different molecular weight by measuring scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images, wet strength, folding endurance, wet thickness, water retention, and Z‐direction tensile strength of the treated paper. The paper crosslinked by a high‐molecular weight (MW) poly(carboxylic acid) shows more swelling by water than that crosslinked by a low‐MW polycarboxylic acid in the SEM micrographs even though both treated paper samples have similar wet strength. Thus, the data suggest that high‐MW poly(carboxylic acid)s promote the formation of interfiber crosslinking. Crosslinking paper by glutaraldehyde, a crosslinking agent of small molecular size, improves wet strength and reduces flexibility and swellability of paper because of the formation of intrafiber crosslinking. Combining glutaraldehyde with PVA as a coreactant increases wet strength and also retains flexibility and swellability of the treated paper because of the formation of interfiber crosslinking. The hypothesis that PVA reacts with glutaraldehyde to form a polymeric pentanedialated‐PVA crosslinking system and promotes the formation of interfiber crosslinking on the paper is supported by the data of wet strength, folding endurance, wet thickness, water retention, and Z‐direction tensile strength of the treated paper. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of resin chemistry on redox polymerization of unsaturated polyester resins

Unsaturated polyester resins are the most widely used thermoset resins in the composite industry. In this study, three well‐defined unsaturated polyester resins were used. These resins have similar number‐average molecular weights, and they have different numbers of C?C bonds per molecule. The reaction kinetics of unsaturated polyester resins was studied using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer. The glass transition temperature of the isothermally cured resin was also measured. Trapped radicals were observed in the cured polyester resin from electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Considering the diffusion‐limitation effect, a simple kinetic model was developed to simulate the reaction rate and conversion profiles of polyester vinylene and styrene vinyl groups, as well as the total reaction rate and conversion. Experimental results from DSC and FTIR measurements compare favorably with the model prediction. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 84: 211–227, 2002; DOI 10.1002/app.10317     

Rheological properties and foam processibility of precured EPDM

EPDM foam was prepared by dynamically vulcanizing EPDM compound in a HAAKE rheometer firstly, then mixing the partially precured EPDM compound with a blowing agent and a sulfur vulcanizing system on a two roll mill. The compound was extruded through a cold feed extruder, and the extrudate was foamed in a circulating hot air oven. EPDM compound was vulcanized partly in the HAAKE rheometer, the final torque increases with increasing sulfur content. Rheological measurement shows the dynamic storage modulus, the loss modulus, and the complex viscosity of precured EPDM compound increase with increasing sulfur content. Then the partially precured EPDM compound was compounded with a blowing agent and a sulfur vulcanizing systems, Rheometric measurement shows that the rate of vulcanization of partially precured EPDM compound is not affected by the precure. The blowing results show that the foam processibility could be improved and the expansion ratio increases in the same processing condition for optimum partially precured EPDM compound, which indicates the optimum crosslink density for EPDM could enhance the efficiency of blowing agent AC. SEM shows that the foam articles have a closed‐cell structure with few open cells, and the large cells inlay among the small cells. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dynamic Mechanical Properties and Adhesive Joint Strengths of Emulsion Polymers Produced by Power Feed Technique. III. Adhesive Joint Strengths of Grafted Power Feed Copolymer

Power feed copolymers were synthesized using styrene and n-butyl acrylate through non-uniform feeding emulsion polymerization. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was used as a protective colloid, onto which vinyl monomers were grafted. Power feed copolymer had a very broad glass transition temperature compared with random copolymer, even if grafting and/or crosslinking were introduced to the system. This tendency was almost the same as the non-grafted power feed copolymer where only low molecular weight surfactant was used.

Adhesive joint strengths of power feed copolymers were evaluated compared with random copolymers. In the case of usual linear power feed copolymer, the adhesive joint strengths were not higher than those of random copolymer, which was considered to be due to the lower film strengths of the power feed copolymer. Power feed copolymer having grafting showed slightly higher adhesive joint strengths over a wide range of temperatures than random copolymer. When crosslinking was introduced to the system, power feed copolymer showed much higher adhesive joint strengths over a wide temperature range.

Immobilization of 2,5‐dimethyl‐4‐benzoyl‐oxypiperidine succinate over polyacrylic acid (PAA) gels. II. Study of quantitative characteristics of immobilization of succinate of 2,5‐dimethyl‐4‐benzoyl‐oxypiperidine over PAA

By use of a spectrophotometric method the quantity of binding of medicinal compound [succinate of 2,5‐dimethyl‐4‐benzoyl‐oxypiperidine (AK‐29)], over gels of polyacrylic acid, and liberation of medicinal compound (MC) from the gel phase were investigated. It was established that both concentration and pH dependency of AK‐29 sorption over PAA gels pass through a maximum and increase with increasing degree of gel crosslinking. The yield of MC from the gel phase, depending on the conditions, reaches 80% and accelerates at the change of the aqueous phase to a physiological one. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Immobilization of 2,5‐dimethyl‐4‐benzoyl‐oxypiperidine succinate over polyacrylic acid (PAA) gels. I. Study of interaction between linear and network PAA with succinate of 2,5‐dimethyl‐4‐benzoyl‐oxypiperidine

The interaction of water‐soluble and crosslinked polyacrylic acid (PAA) with a medicinal compound (MC) of 2,5‐dimethyl‐4‐benzoyl‐oxypiperidine succinate was investigated. By methods of potentiometry, viscosimetry, and equilibrium swelling it was confirmed that the interaction of linear and network PAA with MC proceeds with complex formation. The degree of complex formation depends on the effect of pH, MC concentration, and degree of polyacid crosslinking. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 96: 1183–1186, 2005     

Cationic copolymerization behavior of a bicyclic orthoester having hydroxy group with glycidyl phenyl ether and volume change on their copolymerization

This article describes cationic ring‐opening copolymerization of a bicyclic orthoester having hydroxy group (BOE‐OH) and glycidyl phenyl ether (GPE), and the volume shrinkage behavior during the copolymerization. THF soluble polyethers [poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE)] were obtained by the copolymerizations at 80–180°C, while crosslinked poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE) was obtained by the copolymerizations at 220–250°C. This crosslinking reaction may originate from the dehydration of methylol groups in the side chain of poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE). The volume shrinkage during the cationic copolymerization reduced as the increase of the BOE‐OH feed ratio. By contrast, the volume shrinkage on the crosslinking polymerization was almost independent on the BOE‐OH feed ratio. Poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE)s with higher BOE‐OH composition showed lower thermal weight loss temperature owing to the release of H₂O by dehydration of methylol groups. The BOE‐OH component in the THF soluble poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE)s lowered the glass transition temperature (T_g), while that in the crosslinked poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE) increased the T_g probably because of the higher crosslinking density. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
