质谱在高分子热分解及油脂分析中的应用

本论文主要包括三个部分。第一部分简单介绍了四极杆质谱仪的工作原理和所用实验技术；第二部分首先综述了质谱技术在高分子链结构和热分解机理研究中的应用，然后以直接裂解质谱（DPMS）为主要手段研究了聚对苯硫醚（PPS）、聚噻吩（PT）、聚苯胺（PAn）、聚邻甲基苯胺（POT）和聚β-羟基丁酸酯（PHB）及其共聚物的热分解行为和某些结构性质。主要讨论了电子能量、裂解温度、电离方式等对高分子裂解产物的影响，表明DPMS是研究高分子热分解机理的有效方法。几种导电聚合物的热分解均以自由基方式降解，PPS裂解形成环状和线状齐聚物，PT、PAn及POT只能形成线状齐聚物；聚β-羟基烷酸酯的热分解通过β-CH转移反应形成由羟基和烯烃结尾的齐聚物，形成的齐聚物准分子离子可进一步脱去一个分子水。第三部分用GC、GC/MS分离鉴定了山核桃油中的脂肪酸，并用FABMS测定了山核油中混合甘油三酸酯的组成。FABMS能反映不同甘油三酸酯的组成和含量，而GC、GC/MS能对各种脂肪酸进行定性和定量分析，两种方法相互补充，较全面地获得了山核桃油的组成信息。

The morphology and thermal properties of multi-walled carbon nanotube and poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) composite

Nanocomposites based on poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were prepared by solution processing. Ultrasonic energy was used to uniformly disperse MWNTs in solutions and to incorporate them into composites. Microscopic observation reveals that polymer-coated MWNTs dispersed homogenously in the PHBV matrix. The thermal properties and the crystallization behavior of the composites were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry and wide-angle X-ray diffraction, the nucleant effect of MWNTs on the crystallization of PHBV was confirmed, and carbon nanotubes were found to enhanced the thermal stability of PHBV in nitrogen.

Characterization and properties of biodegradable poly(hydroxyalkanoates) and 4,4-dihydroxydiphenylpropane blends: Intermolecular hydrogen bonds, miscibility and crystallization

Intermolecular hydrogen bonds, miscibility, crystallization and thermal stability of the blends of biodegradable poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) [P(3HB-3HHx)] with 4,4-dihydroxydiphenylpropane (DOH2) were investigated by FTIR, C-13 Solid state NMR, DSC, WAXD and TGA. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds were found in both blend systems, which resulted from the carbonyl groups in the amorphous phase of both polyesters and the hydroxyl groups of DOH2. The intermolecular interaction between P(3HB-3HHx) and DOH2 is weaker than that between PHB and DOH2 owing to the steric hindrance of longer 3HHx side chains. Because of the effect of the hydrogen bonds, the chain mobility of both PHB and P(3HB-3HHx) components was limited after blending with DOH2 molecules. Single glass transition temperature depending on the composition was observed in all blends, indicating that those blends were miscible in the melt. The addition of DOH2 suppressed the crystallization of PHB and P(3HB-3HHx) components. Moreover, the crystallinity of PHB and P(3HB-3HHx) components also decreased with increasing DOH2 content in the blends.

Synthesis and characterization of maleated poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)

Graft copolymerization of maleic anhydride (MA) onto poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) was carried out by use of benzoyl peroxide as initiator. The effects of various polymerization conditions on graft degree were investigated, including solvents, monomer and initiator concentrations, reaction temperature, and time. The monomer and initiator concentrations played an important role in graft copolymerization, and graft degree could be controlled in the range from 0.2 to 0.85% by changing the reaction conditions. The crystallization behavior and the thermal stability of PHB and maleated PHB were studied by DSC, WAXD, optical microscopy, and TGA. The results showed that, after grafting MA, the crystallization behavior of PHB was obviously changed. The cold crystallization temperature from the glass state increased, the crystallization temperature from the melted state decreased, and the growth rate of spherulite decreased. With the increase in graft degree, the banding texture of spherulites became more distinct and orderly. Moreover, the thermal stability of maleated PHB was obviously improved, compared with that of pure PHB.

Isothermal crystallization of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)

Isothermal crystallization behavior of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) was investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy (POM). The Avrami analysis can be used successfully to describe the isothermal crystallization kinetics of PHBV, which indicates that the Avrami exponent n = 3 is good for all the temperatures investigated. The spherulitic growth rate, G, was determined by POM. The result shows that the G has a maximum value at about 353 K. Using the equilibrium melting temperature (448 K) determined by the Flory equation for melting point depression together with U-* = 1500 cal mol(-1), T-infinity = 30 K and T-g = 278 K, the nucleation parameter K-g was determined, which was found to be 3.14+/-0.07 x 10(5) (K-2), lower than that for pure PHB. The surface-free energy sigma = 2.55 x 10(-2) J m(-2) and sigma(e) = 2.70+/-0.06 x 10-2 J m(-2) were estimated and the work of chain-folding (q = 12.5+/-0.2 kJ mol(-1)) was derived from sigma(e), and found to be lower than that for PHB. This implies that the chains of PHBV are more flexible than that of PHB.

Studies on Mechanical Properties of Full-Biodegradable Starch-PVA-Polyester Films

A kind of full-biodegradable film material is discussed in this article. The film material is composed of starch, PVA, degradable polyesters(PHB, PHB-V, PCL) with built plasticizer, a cross-linking reinforcing agent and a wet strengthening agent. It contains a high percentage of starch, costs cheap and is excellent in weather fastness, temperature resistance and waterproof and it could be completely biodegraded. The present paper deals mainly with a new technical route using a new type of electromagnetic dynamic blow molding extruder and some effects on mechanical properties of the system.

Effect of nucleating agents on the crystallization of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)

The effect of nucleating agents on the crystallization behavior of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) was studied. A differential scanning calorimeter was used to monitor the energy of the crystallization process from the melt and melting behavior. During the crystallization process from the melt, nucleating agent led to an increase in crystallization temperature (T-c) of PHBV compared with that for plain PHBV (without nucleating agent). The melting temperature of PHBV changed little with addition of nucleating agent. However, the areas of two melting peaks changed considerably with added nucleating agent. During isothermal crystallization, dependence of the relative degree of crystallization on time was described by the Avrami equation. The addition of nucleating agent caused an increase in the overall crystallization rate of PHBV, but did not influence the mechanism of nucleation and growth of the PHB crystals. The equilibrium melting temperature of PHBV was determined as 187degreesC. Analysis of kinetic data according to nucleation theories showed that the increase in crystallization rate of PHBV in the composite is due to the decrease in surface energy of the extremity surface.

Synthesis and characterization of poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(epsilon-caprolactone) copolyester by transesterification

To synthesize the copolyester of poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL), the transesterification of PHB and PCL was carried out in the liquid phase with stannous octoate as the catalyzer. The effects of reaction conditions on the transesterification, including catalyzer concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time, were investigated. The results showed that both rising reaction temperature and increasing reaction time were advantageous to the transesterification. The sequence distribution, thermal behavior, and thermal stability of the copolyesters were investigated by C-13 NMR, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, optical microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The transesterification of PHB and PCL was confirmed to produce the block copolymers. With an increasing PCL content in the copolyesters, the thermal behavior of the copolyesters changed evidently. However, the introduction of PCL segments into PHB chains did not affect its crystalline structure. Moreover, thermal stability of the copolyesters was little improved in air as compared with that of pure PHB.

Effect of PMR-POI on the melt behavior and isothermal crystallization of poly(phenylene sulfide)

The crystallization behavior of neat PPS and PPS in blends with PMR-POI prepared by melt mixing were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was found that POI was an effective nucleation agent of the crystallization for PPS. The enthalpy of crystallization of PPS in the blends increased compared with that of neat PPS. During isothermal crystallization from melt, the dependence of relative degree of crystallinity on time was described by the Avrami equation. It has been shown that the addition of POI causes an increase in the overall crystallization rate of PPS; it also changed the mechanism of nucleation of the PHB crystals from homogeneous nucleation to heterogeneous nucleation. The equilibrium melting temperature of PPS and PPS/POI blends were determined. The analysis of kinetic data according to nucleation theories shows that the increase in crystallization rate of PPS in the composite is due to the decrease in surface energy of the extremity surface.

Nonisothermal crystallization and melting behavior of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and maleated poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)

Nonisothermal crystallization and melting behavior of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and maleated PHB were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry using various cooling rates. The results show that the crystallization behavior of maleated PHB from the melt greatly depends on cooling rates and its degree of grafting. With the increase in cooling rate, the crystallization process for PHB and maleated PHB begins at lower temperature. For maleated PHB, the introduction of maleic anhydride group hinders its crystallization, causing crystallization and nucleation rates to decrease, and crystallite size distribution becomes wider. The Avrami analysis, modified by Jeziorny, was used to describe the nonisothermal crystallization of PHB and maleated PHB. Double melting peaks for maleated PHB were observed, which was caused by recrystallization during the heating process.

Study on the transesterification of poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(epsilon-caprolactone)

The transesterification of poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) was carried out by using stannous octoate as catalyzer in liquid phase. The effects of reaction conditions on the transesterification, including reaction temperature, reaction time and catalyzer content, were investigated. The sequence distribution, crystallization behavior and thermal stability of PHB-co-PCL copolyesters were studied by C-13-NMR, FTIR, DSC, WAXD and TGA. The results showed that the transesterification of PHB with PCL was confirmed to produce a block copolymer, and enhancing reaction temperature and increasing reaction time were advantageous to the transesterification. With the increase in PCL content in the block copolymer, the crystallization behavior of PHB-co-PCL copolyesters changed evidently. On the other hand, the introduction of PCL segment into PHB chains did not change its crystalline structure; moreover, thermal stability of PHB-co-PCL copolyesters was a little improved in air, comparing with that of pure PHB.
