辐照半结晶聚合物—尼龙1010的ESR研究

尼龙1010(以下简称PA1010)是半结晶聚合物。我们采用不同浓度的成核剂,通过淬火和退火的方法制备了不同微晶尺寸的试样,用~(60)Coγ—射线进行辐照,利用ESR方法研究其交联和裂解反应的机理。

CHARACTERIZATION OF GAMMA-IRRADIATED CRYSTALLINE POLYMER .3. THERMAL-BEHAVIOR OF GAMMA-IRRADIATED POLYAMIDE-1010

Thermal behaviour of gamma-irradiated plain PA1010 and PA1010 containing different amounts of difunctional cross-linking agent BMI was investigated. In DSC endo- and exotherm, it was found that during irradiation, the presence of BMI markedly changes the melting and crystallisation characteristics of PA1010. A supposition that the network of BMI-containing specimens is rather loose in structure was proposed to explain the discrepancy in thermal behaviour between these two kinds of specimens. The supposition was further ascertained by the less brittleness in mechanical property of specimens containing BMI. Besides, the complexity of the thermal behaviour of gamma-irradiated PA1010 was discussed and attributed mainly to the increase in sigma-e, the fold surface free energy of chain fold crystals.
