Excimer formation in uniaxially stretched polymer films

The steady-state fluorescence properties of naphthalene-labeled polymers dispersed in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) cast films were studied under tensile loadings at 80 degreesC. The labeled polymers were composed of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and 1-naphthylmethyl methacrylate (NMMA). Three of the copolymers were used in this work, and the contents of NMMA were 0.59 mol % (CP1), 22.0 mol % (CP2), and 56.7 mol % (CP3), respectively. The fluorescence spectra of the films containing CP1 and CP2were unchanged during elongation. For the film containing CP3, the excited monomer emission of naphthyl groups at around 337 nm decreased with increasing applied tensile strain. The strain enhanced the emission ascribed to the excimer of the naphthyl groups in the region of 390-420 nm. The ratio of fluorescence intensities at 400 nm and 337 mn, I-400/I-337, increased with the applied strain, which indicates that CP3 is a sensitive probe for detecting the structural changes of polymer matrices. The obtained results mean that the excimer-forming sites in the PMMA films during elongation depend both on the applied strain and the concentration of naphthyl groups in the dispersed polymer probes.

Crystallization behevior of poly(3-dodecylthiophene)

The crystallization behavior of poly (3-dodecylthiophene) (P3DDT) is studied bq differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under different cooling rates. When the methods of Jeziorny., Ozawa and a new one proposed by our laboratory are applied to describe its nonisothermal crystallization behavior, the new one is confirmed to be the best and convenient. By determining kinetic parameters, the analysis of the nonisothermal crystallization behavior is performed. According to Kissinger method, the crystallization activation energy of P3DDT is also evaluated.

Polyimides from 3,3 '-dioxo-[1,1 ']-spirodiphthalan-5,5 ',6,6 '-tetracarboxylic dianhydride

A novel dianhydride, 3,3'-dioxo-[1,1']-spirodiphthalan-5,5',6,6'-tetracarboxlic dianhydride, was synthesized and used as a monomer to prepare polyimides with several diamines via a conventional two-stage procedure. The intermediate poly(amic-acid)s had inherent viscosities of 0.84-1.71 dL/g and could be thermally converted into lightly yellow, transparent, flexible and tough films. Films cast from chemically imidized polyimides were transparent and colorless. The glass transition temperatures (Tg) were > 400 degrees C, and the 5% weight-loss temperatures were > 420 degrees C in N-2 and in air. The solubilities of these polyimides in various solvents were evaluated. The mechanical properties of some polyimides were also tested. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Cure processing modeling and cure cycle simulation of epoxy-terminated poly(phenylene ether ketone). V: Estimation of temperature distribution during cure process

A numerical method to estimate temperature distribution during the cure of epoxy-terminated poly(phenylene ether ketone) (E-PEK)-based composite is suggested. The effect of the temperature distribution on the selection of cure cycle is evaluated using a suggested alternation criterion. The effect of varying heating rate and thickness on the temperature distribution, viscosity distribution and distribution of the extent of cure reaction are discussed based on the combination of the here-established temperature distribution model and the previously established curing kinetics model and chemorheological model. It is found that, for a thin composite (<=10mm) and low heating rate (<=2.5K/min), the effect of temperature distribution on cure cycle and on the processing window for pressure application can be neglected. Low heating rate is of benefit to reduce the temperature gradient. The processing window for pressure application becomes narrower with increasing thicknesses of composite sheets. The validity of the temperature distribution model and the modified processing window is evaluated through the characterization of mechanical and physical properties of E-PEK-based composite fabricated according to different temperature distribution conditions.

Eu~(3+)离子激活的荧光粉的真空紫外-紫外光谱

本文对一些Eu~(3+)离子激活的荧光粉的真空紫外光谱进行了考察,对激发谱带进行了归属,特别是基质敏化带。有些荧光粉出现两个基质敏化带,其中与Eu-O电荷迁移带更相近的基质敏化带似乎具有更高的敏化效率。Eu~(3+)离子在同一组成但不同晶型的基质中的敏化不一样,Eu~(3+)离子在基质中具有更短波长的Eu-O电荷迁移带往往具有更高的敏化效率。在YPO_4-YVO_4固溶体体系中观察到基质敏化Eu~(3+)离子增强的现象。

NMR-STUDY ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MISCIBILITY AND ANTIAGING PERFORMANCE OF BLENDS CONTAINING BLOCK-COPOLYMERS

The anti-aging performance of blends of polystyrene (PS), styrene-butadiene triblock copolymers (SBS), and PS/styrene-butadiene (SB)-4A (Carm star SE block copolymer) has been studied by means of C-13 NMR techniques. It is found that the anti-aging performance of these kinds of blends largely depends on their miscibility with PS of different molecular weight M(PS). The larger the quantities of PS solubilized in polybutadiene (PBD) domains, the better the anti-aging performance of the blends. It is also found that the anti-aging performance of these blends has dependence on molecular architectures of the SE block copolymers. For the aged blends, the double bonds of PBD were broken, meanwhile serious cross-linking networks formed in the blends. The proposed anti-aging mechanism is that the PS solubilized in PBD domains can efficiently prevent oxygen molecules from diffusing into PBD domains, therefore, successfully stop the oxidative process of PBD.
