Influence of the synthesis conditions on the curing behavior of phenol–urea–formaldehyde resol resins

The curing behavior of synthesized phenol–urea–formaldehyde (PUF) resol resins with various formaldehyde/urea/phenol ratios was studied with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The results indicated that the synthesis parameters, including the urea content, formaldehyde/phenol ratio, and pH value, had a combined effect on the curing behavior. The pH value played an important role in affecting the shape of the DSC curing curves, the activation energy, and the reaction rate constant. Depending on the pH value, one or two peaks could appear in the DSC curve. The activation energy was lower when pH was below 11. The reaction rate constant increased with an increase in the pH value at both low and high temperatures. The urea content and formaldehyde/phenol ratio had no significant influence on the activation energy and rate constant. DMA showed that both the gel point and tan δ peak temperature (T_tanδ) had the lowest values in the mid‐pH range for the PUF resins. A different trend was observed for the phenol–formaldehyde resin without the urea component. Instead, the gel point and T_tanδ decreased monotonically with an increase in the pH value. For the PUF resins, a high urea content or a low formaldehyde/phenol ratio resulted in a high gel point. The effect of the urea content on T_tanδ was bigger than that on the gel point because of the reversible reaction associated with the urea component. Too much formaldehyde could lead to more reversible reactions and a higher T_tanδ value. The effects of the synthesis conditions on the rigidity of the cured network were complex for the PUF resins. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 95: 1368–1375, 2005     

Isothermal crystallization behavior of polypropylene catalloys

The isothermal crystallization behavior of polypropylene (PP) catalloys and neat PP were studied with differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy (POM). The crystallization kinetics of the samples were described with the well‐known Avrami equation. The crystallization rate depended remarkably on the content of the ethylene component in the PP catalloys. The crystallization half‐time increased obviously with the increase of the ethylene component in the PP catalloys. We also observed by POM that in isothermal crystallization, there were many more nuclei in the PP catalloys than that in neat PP and with an increase of the ethylene component, the average size of the spherulites decreased obviously. Even when ethylene content was as high as 27%, the crystallization rate still increased apparently, and this was quite different from common PP melting blends, in which the crystallization rate decreased when the ethylene content was relatively high because of the obstruction effect of dispersed droplets to the spherulite growth of the PP matrix. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Crystallization behavior of poly(N‐methyldodecano‐12‐lactam). IV. Nonisothermal crystallization

Nonisothermal crystallization of poly(N‐methyldodecano‐12‐lactam) (MPA) was investigated using DSC method at cooling rates of 2–40 K/min. With increasing cooling rate, crystallization exotherms decreased in magnitude and shifted toward lower temperatures. Subsequent heating runs (10 K/min) showed an exotherm just above T_g, which increased in magnitude with the rate of preceding cooling run, corresponding to the continuation of primary crystallization interrupted as the system crossed T_g on cooling. Kinetic evaluation by the Avrami method gave values of exponent n close to 2.0, suggesting two‐dimensional crystal growth combined with heterogeneous nucleation. The Tobin method, covering the intermediate range of relative crystallinities, provided n ? 2.20, suggesting possible partial involvement of homogeneous nucleation at later stages of nonisothermal crystallization. The crystallization rate parameter k^1/n showed a linear dependency on cooling rate for both methods, the Tobin values being slightly higher. The Ozawa approach failed to provide reasonable values of the kinetic exponent m of MPA. The Augis–Bennet method was used to determine the effective activation energy of the entire nonisothermal crystallization process of MPA. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermal properties measurements of renatured gelatin using conventional and temperature modulated differential scanning calorimetry

The thermal properties of amorphous gelatin films and gelatin films with renatured structural order were measured by using conventional and temperature modulated differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Different amounts of gelatin structural order associated with a melting enthalpic change in the DSC measurement were prepared based on different gelatin drying conditions. Two consecutive heating and cooling DSC measurements on the gelatin films showed that there was no change in the glass‐transition temperature (T_g) for the amorphous gelatin but there was a decrease in the T_g for the structural gelatin on the second DSC scan. This decrease was attributed to the plasticizing effect from the release of originally hydrogen‐bonded water associated with the structural gelatin. In addition, a reversing endotherm observed upon melting of the structural gelatin during a temperature modulated DSC measurement indicated that the transition of bound water to free water occurred as the partial triple‐helix gelatin melted. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Cure monitoring via different techniques: Isothermal cure of an epoxy-novolac molding compound

The isothermal cure of an epoxy-novolac molding compound was studied by means of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and dielectrometry (DE). Results obtained were compared with previous differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) observations. The behavior of epoxide conversion (_FTIR) measured via FTIR was found similar to (but not exactly coinciding with) the extent of cure (_DSC) determined previously by means of DSC. As for the DE analysis, directly measurable properties such as permittivity () and loss factor () varied in a complicated manner during the course of cure, showing strong dependence on both temperature and frequency. Other dielectric parameters (such as ionic conductivity, relaxed permittivity, and characteristic relaxation time) previously suggested in the literature as suitable for cure monitoring purposes were found difficult to determine within the limited frequency range (10⁰ to 10⁴ Hz) here. With some arbitrariness, the relative drop in log (at 100 Hz) was taken as an index (_DE) for the extent of cure. It was observed that _DE behaves in a manner similar to _FTIR and _DSC Comments on the application of these three techniques in the characterization of thermosetting systems were given.

Mechanical and morphological properties of carbon fiber reinforced–modified epoxy composites

Epoxy, prepared through aminomethyl 3,5,5‐trimethylcyclohexylamine hardening of diglycidylether of bisphenol‐A (DGEBA) prepolymer, toughened with polycarbonate (PC) in different proportions, and reinforced with carbon fiber, was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, tensile and interlaminar shear strength testing, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A single glass transition temperature was found in all compositions of the epoxy/PC blend system. The tensile properties of the blend were found to be better than that of the pure epoxy matrix. They increased with PC content up to 10%, beyond which they decreased. The influence of carbon fiber orientation on the mechanical properties of the composites was studied, where the fiber content was kept constant at 68 wt %. Composites with 45° fiber orientation were found to have very weak mechanical properties, and the mechanical properties of the blend matrix composites were found to be better than those of the pure epoxy matrix composites. The fracture and surface morphologies of the composite samples were characterized by SEM. Good bonding was observed between the fiber and matrix for the blend matrix composites. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 101: 3529–3536, 2006     

Modeling the curing kinetics for a modified bismaleimide resin using isothermal DSC

The kinetics of curing for a modified bismaleimide (BMI) resin was investigated to ascertain a suitable cure model for the material. The resin system used in this study was composed of 4,4′‐bismaleimidodiphenylmethane (BMIM) and 0,0′‐diallyl bisphenol A (DABPA, DABA). The BMIM was the base monomer and the DABPA was the modified agent. A series of isothermal DSC runs provided information about the kinetics of cure in the temperature range 170–220°C. Regardless of the different temperatures, the shape of the conversion curves was similar, and this modified BMI resin system underwent an nth‐order cure reaction. Kinetic parameters of this BMI resin system, including the reaction model, activation energy, and frequency factor, were calculated. From the experimental data, it was found that the cure kinetics of this resin system can be characterized by a first‐order kinetic model. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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.
