Curing of mixtures of epoxy resins and 4‐methyl‐1,3‐dioxolan‐2‐one with several initiators

Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A or 3,4‐epoxycyclohexylmethyl 3,4‐epoxycyclohexane carboxylate were mixed with different proportions of 4‐methyl‐1,3‐dioxolan‐2‐one and cured using lanthanide triflates as initiators. In order to compare the materials obtained, conventional initiators such as boron trifluoride complexes and N,N‐dimethylaminopyridine were also tested. The curing process was followed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform IR in attenuated total reflectance mode. This technique proved that the carbonate accelerates the curing process because it helps to form the active initiating species, although it was not chemically incorporated into the network and remained entrapped in the material. The DSC kinetic study was also reported. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 102: 2086–2093, 2006     

Hygrothermal aging of rubber‐modified and mineral‐filled dicyandiamide‐cured DGEBA epoxy resin. III. Dielectric spectroscopy investigation

The effects of moisture absorption on the dielectric properties of a rubber‐modified, mineral‐filled, epoxy resin based on the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A cured with dicyandiamide are reported. Samples of the resin were aged by immersing in deionized water, or 5% w/w NaCl solution, at elevated temperatures. Dielectric measurements were carried out over the frequency range 10^?1 to 6 × 10⁵ Hz. A featureless dielectric spectrum was observed with both real and imaginary dielectric permittivity increasing with the amount of absorbed water. The change in the dielectric properties with absorption of water was independent of presence of salt, temperature of exposure, and aging history, although a hysteresis of the hydration–dehydration process was observed at low frequencies. Two types of absorbed water were observed—water molecularly dispersed within the epoxy matrix and clustered water in spherical microcavities. The time dependence of the real dielectric permittivity measured at 10 kHz was found to closely resemble that of the water absorption, which allowed the activation energy of diffusion to be calculated from both dielectric and gravimetric data. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A new core–shell type fluorinated acrylic and siliconated polyurethane hybrid emulsion

A novel core–shell type fluorinated acrylic and siliconated polyurethane (FSiPUA) hybrid emulsion was prepared by seeded emulsion polymerization using siliconated polyurethane (SiPU) as a seed and forming the structure with SiPU as a shell and the copolymer of butyl acrylate (BA) with 2,2,2-trifluoroethylmethacrylate (TFEMA) as a core. SiPU was synthesized using isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), polytetramethylene ether glycol (PTMG), polypropylene glycol (PPG), dihydroxybutyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), dimethylol propionic acid (DMPA), 1,6-hexanediol (HDO) and triethylamine (TEA). The contents of siloxane and fluorine were determined according to the feed ratio. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to identify the chain structure of SiPU and FSiPUA. Investigation of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed the core–shell structure of FSiPUA emulsion and gave the particle size at about 50 nm. The measurement results of water contact angles and the solvent absorptions in water and n-octane for cured films showed that the water and the oil repellency for FSiPUA had been improved significantly with a suitable content of fluorine and siloxane.     

两性乳化剂体系对有机硅改性丙烯酸酯乳液合成的影响

采用新型琥珀酸类两性乳化剂(A1)与非离子乳化剂壬基酚聚氧乙烯醚(CA407)复配体系,合成了有机硅γ-甲基丙烯酰氧基丙三甲氧基硅烷(A174)改性的丙烯酸酯乳液。系统研究了两性乳化剂体系与非离子乳化剂复配比例、用量及乳化剂在种子乳液与预乳液中分布比例(R/F)E对乳液聚合及其性能的影响。研究表明:乳化剂配比m(A1)∶m(CA407)=30∶70时,乳液聚合稳定性及抗电解质稳定性较好;乳化剂用量越大,乳胶粒径越小,粒径分布越宽,乳液黏度越大,涂膜吸水率也越大;乳化剂在种子乳液与预乳液中的分布比例主要影响乳液聚合的稳定性。同时通过TEM乳胶粒形态分析及DSC涂膜的玻璃化转变温度分析认为,A174主要在乳液聚合时分布在乳胶粒表面,易水解交联。
