Polysulphone and poly(phenylene sulphide) blends: 1. Thermal characterization and phase morphology

The phase behaviour and morphology of injection moulded specimens of polysulphone (PSF) and poly(phenylene sulphide) (PPS) blends were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (d.s.c.), dynamical mechanical thermal analysis (d.m.t.a.) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The blends are phase separated regardless of the blend composition as revealed by d.s.c., d.m.t.a. and TEM. Upon annealing at 160°C for 2 h, d.m.t.a. results indicate that the PPS phase remains in the amorphous state at compositions <10%. At compositions between 20 and 35%, the PPS appears to be dispersed in a mixed mode of amorphous and crystalline domains. Above 35% the PPS phase appears to become fully crystallized upon annealing of the blends. At 10% PPS, TEM results showed 35–200 nm size dispersion both in the as-moulded and in the annealed specimens. At 20% the PPS phase varied widely in size, from 35 nm to tens of micrometres but remained as an included phase. TEM also revealed a compound morphology of the included phase at a composition of 50 wt% of each component.     

Transient Hot-Strip Method for Simultaneous Determination of Thermal Conductivity and Thermal Diffusivity of Refractory Materials

The transient hot-strip method has been used for determining thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of a refractory brick. The technique is based on recording the transient temperature increase of a 25-μm-thick, 8-mm-wide, and 70-mm-long iron strip clamped between two sample halves and heated with a constant direct current. The method is accurate to within 5% in the thermal conductivity and to within 10% in the thermal diffusivity in the temperature range 20° to 700°C.     

基于积分法的热非平衡效应下剪切液膜流的表面波演化模型

当液膜表面同时存在热非平衡效应和切应力作用时,引发液膜流动不稳定的扰动及其影响将更为复杂。基于边界层理论,通过建立气液界面受热非平衡效应和切应力耦合作用的液膜流动的理论模型,采用包含弱非线性项的积分法,推导出热非平衡效应下剪切液膜流的表面波积分演化模型,模型中包括了相变强度、切应力、雷诺数和倾斜角度等不同参数的影响,为分析复杂边界条件下的液膜流的演化特征和稳定性提供了一种可借鉴的理论模型。     

关于基体曲率的热障涂层残余应力分析

采用空心和实心四相同心圆模型,导出了轴对称温度应力状态下的位移公式,分析了基体曲率对热障涂层残余应力的影响。结果表明:热障涂层结构中各层内既有环向应力,又有径向应力,应力大小与温降成线性关系;当陶瓷层在外层时,在氧化层/陶瓷层和粘结层/氧化层界面上产生垂直界面的拉应力,且实心模型的拉应力远大于空心模型的拉应力;当陶瓷层在里层时,空心模型中相应界面上的应力为压应力。     

A Thermo-Mechanical Study of Some Epoxy Adhesives Subjected to Combined Dynamic and Static Stresses

The object of the present study was to investigate the effect of superimposed dynamic and static stresses on mechanical and thermal properties of some epoxy adhesives. It was found that combinations of shear creep and torsional oscillations, applied simultaneously to adhesive joints at temperatures within the glassy range of the adhesive, led to strengthening of the joints in shear and to an increase in the glass transition temperature of the adhesive. Similar loading stresses applied at temperatures close to the T_g of the adhesive, led to opposite effects on the above mentioned properties of the joints. The width of the glassy-rubbery transition of the adhesives increased, in the whole range of temperatures used in this study and for all epoxy compositions, as a result of subjecting the joints to superimposed dynamic and static stresses. The broadening of the glass transition was interpreted as a result of the stiffening of polymer network during the combined stressing experiments. A linear relationship was found between the area of endothermal peaks in the first DSC scan of specimens subjected prior to test to superimposed dynamic and static stresses at temperatures below T_g, and the shear strength of the joints. In agreement with this observation and with literature data, a linear relationship was revealed also between the glass transition temperature of the resins (measured in the first DSC scan) and the shear strength of the joints. Based on experimental observations and on some literature information, it was suggested that the strengthening of the joint, as well as the changes in thermal properties of the adhesives, are mainly due to physical processes, such as short-range orientation of network chains and an increase in intermolecular interaction between highly polar sites of the network. The possibility that superimposed stressing led to changes in chemical crosslinking was discussed but it seems that no such reactions occurred.
