MISCIBILITY OF POLY(HYDROXYETHER OF PHENOLPHTHALEIN) WITH POLY(ETHER SULFONE)

Blends of poly(hydroxyether of phenolphthalein) (PHP) with poly(ether sulphone) (PES) were prepared by casting from a common solvent; they were found to be miscible and show a single, composition-dependent glass transition temperature. All the PHP/PES blends exhibited lower critical solution temperature behaviour, i.e. phase separation occurred at elevated temperatures. A F.T.-i.r. study revealed that a hydrogen-bonding interaction occurs between these polymers but it is weaker than in pure PHP. The observed miscibility is hence proposed to be the result of specific interactions between the polymers.

A HIGH-RESOLUTION SOLID-STATE NMR-STUDY OF THE MISCIBILITY, MORPHOLOGY, AND TOUGHENING MECHANISM OF POLYSTYRENE WITH POLY(2,6-DIMETHYL-1,4-PHENYLENE OXIDE) BLENDS

An extended Goldman-Shen pulse sequence was used to observe indirectly the proton spin diffusion in the blends of polystyrene (PS) with poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxides) (PPO). The results indicate that the average distance between PS and PPO is less than 5 angstrom in the intimately mixed phase, but there are heterogeneous domains on a 100-angstrom scale. The data of spin relaxation of carbons, T1(C), for homopolymers and their blends suggest that there is a strong pi-pi electron conjugation interaction between the aromatic rings of PS and those of PPO, while the aromatic rings of PPO drive the aromatic rings of PS to move cooperatively. It is the cooperative motion that markedly improves the impact strength of PS.

TENSILE PROPERTIES OF BLENDS OF POLY(ETHER SULFONE) WITH A POLY(ETHER IMIDE)

Blends of poly(ether sulphone) (PES) with a poly(ether imide) (PEI) in various proportions were prepared by the coprecipitation method. Mechanical properties and morphology of the blends were studied using tensile tests and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The tensile moduli exhibit positive deviations from simple additivity. Marked positive deviations were also observed for ultimate strength. These results suggest that the PEI/PES blends are mechanically compatible. SEM study revealed that the blends are not homogeneous and the polymers are immiscible on the segmental level. However, the dispersions of the blends are rather fine. The interfaces between the two phases are excellently bonded; PEI and PES appear to interact well.

MISCIBILITY OF POLY(N-VINYL-2-PYRROLIDONE) WITH POLY(ETHER SULFONE) AND 2 PHENOLPHTHALEIN-BASED POLYMERS

Blends of poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) with poly(ether sulphone) and two phenolphthalein-based polymers, viz. phenolphthalein poly(ether ether sulphone) and phenolphthalein poly(ether ether ketone) were prepared by casting from a common solvent and studied by differential scanning calorimetry. It was found that all the PVP blends are miscible and show a single, composition-dependent glass transition temperature (T(g)). The T(g)-composition dependence has been analysed by the use of the Gordon-Taylor equation. The values of the k parameter in the Gordon-Taylor equation obtained are all not high for the three pairs, in accordance with the fact that there is no strongly specific interaction between PVP and any of the other polymers.

SYNTHESES OF METHYLCYCLOPENTADIENYL DERIVATIVES OF LANTHANIDES (LN = LA-ND) AND CRYSTAL-STRUCTURES OF [(THF)2LI(MU-CL)2]2[MECPND(THF)] AND [LI(DME)3][MECPLA(NPH2)3]

The reaction of LnCl3.2LiCl with 1 equiv of MeCpNa in THF gives the complexes [(THF)2Li(mu-Cl)2]2[MeCpLn(THF)] (Ln = Nd (1), La (2)) in good yield. These precursors react further with 2 equiv of LiNPh2 to produce the new complexes [Li(DME)3][MeCpLn(NPh2)3] (Ln = La (3), Pr (4), Nd (5)). They have been characterized by elemental analyses and IR and NMR spectra, as well as by structural analyses of 1 and 3. The chloride 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n (No. 14) with a = 12.130 (5) angstrom, b = 17.343 (5) angstrom, c = 17.016 (5) angstrom, beta = 108.54 (3)-degrees, V = 3393.87 angstrom3, Z = 4, and D(c) = 1.45 g/cm3. Least-squares refinement led to a final R value of 0.051 (I greater-than-or-equal-to 3-sigma(I(o))) for 2004 independent reflections. Complex 3 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c (No. 14) with a = 18.335 (6) angstrom, b = 16.576 (5) angstrom, c = 17.461 (6) angstrom, beta = 96.04 (3)-degrees, V = 5277.17 angstrom3, D(c) = 1.26 g/cm3, Z = 4, and R = 0.057 (I greater-than-or-equal-to 2.5-sigma(I(o))) for 3378 reflections. The structure of 3 consists of discrete ion pairs [Li(DME)3]+ and [MeCpLa(NPh2)3]- with average La-N and La-C(ring) distances of 2.459 (8) and 2.84 (1) angstrom, respectively.

SPECTROELECTROCHEMICAL STUDY OF BILIRUBIN IN DIMETHYL FORMAMIDE

The electrochemical reduction of bilirubin (BR) in dimethyl formamide (DMF) is discussed in detail. The kinetic study of the electroreduction process of BR results in values of 7.94 x 10(-6) cm2/s for the diffusion coefficient and about 10(-3) cm/s for the standard heterogeneous electrode reaction rate constant. Thin-layer spectroelectrochemical investigations of BR exhibit a blue shift and a red shift at E(pc) = -0.6 V and E(pc) = -0.85 V respectively. They also give values of E0' = -1.55 V and n = 1 for the reduction process, and E0' = -1.35 V and n = 1 for the oxidation process. It was found experimentally that as the potential changes from negative to positive, the sequential color changes are similar to those of some of the color components in visible light. A mechanism for BR electroreduction in DMF has been proposed.

TENSILE PROPERTIES OF BLENDS OF PHENOLPHTHALEIN POLY(ETHER ETHER KETONE) WITH A POLY(ETHER IMIDE)

Blends of phenolphthalein poly(ether ether ketone) (PEK-C) with a poly(ether imide) (PEI) in various proportions were prepared by the coprecipitation method. Mechanical properties and morphology of the blends were studied using tensile tests and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was found that the tensile moduli exhibit positive deviations from simple additivity. Marked positive deviations were also observed for ultimate strength. These results suggest that the PEI/PEK-C blends are mechanically compatible. SEM study shows no evidence of phase separation, supporting the idea that the blends are compatible.

PHASE-SEPARATION IN ANHYDRIDE-CURED EPOXY-RESIN CONTAINING PHENOLPHTHALEIN POLY(ETHER ETHER KETONE)

Dynamic mechanical analysis and scanning electron microscopy were used to study phase separation of three blends of anhydride-cure bisphenol-A-type epoxy resin with phenolphthalein poly(ether ether ketone). Phase separation was observed for all the blends. The overall compatibility and the resulting morphology of the cured blends are dependent on the choice of cure agent. The phenomena have been discussed from the points of view of both thermodynamics and kinetics. The effects of the choice of hardener on phase separation are considered to be primarily due to differences between the chemical natures of the hardeners.

CRYSTALLIZATION OF POLY(ARYL-ETHER-ETHER-KETONE)S BLENDS

The crystallization and melting behaviour of poly(aryl-ether-ether-ketone) (PEEK) in blends with another polymer of the same family containing a bulky pendant phenolphthalein group (PEK-C) have been investigated by thermal methods. The small interaction energy density of the polymer pair (B = -8.99 J/cm3), evaluated from equilibrium melting point depression, is consistent with the T(g) data that indicate partial miscibility in the melt. Two conjugated phases are in equilibrium at 430-degrees-C: one is crystallizable and contains about 35 wt% of PEK-C; the other, containing only 15 wt% of PEEK, does not form crystals upon cooling and it interferes with the development of spherulites in the sample. The analysis of kinetic data according to nucleation theories shows that crystallization of PEEK in the explored temperature range takes place in Regime III and that a transition to Regime II might be a consequence of an increase in the amount of non-crystallizable molecules in the PEEK-rich phase. A composition independent value of the end surface free energy of PEEK lamellae has been derived from kinetic data (sigma-e = 40 +/- 4 erg/cm2) in excellent agreement with previous thermodynamic estimates. A new value for the equilibrium melting temperature of PEEK (T(m)-degrees = 639 K) has been obtained; it is about 30-degrees-C lower than the commonly accepted value and it explains better the "memory effect" in the crystallization from the melt of this high performance polymer.

ANODIC-OXIDATION OF HYDRAZINE ON GLASSY-CARBON MODIFIED BY MACROCYCLIC TRANSITION-METAL COMPLEXES .1. COBALT PROTOPORPHYRIN DIMETHYL ESTER MODIFIED ELECTRODE

The electrocatalytic oxidation of hydrazine (N2H4) on a glassy carbon electrode (GC) modified by monolayer and polymer films of cobalt protoporphyrin dimethyl ester (CoPP) has been studied. Both the monolayer and polymer films of CoPP are very active to the anodic oxidation of N2H4. The activity of CoPP for the anodic oxidation of N2H4 is dependent on the pH of the solution, and the thickness of polymerized CoPP film. The oxidation kinetics were examined by methods of cyclic voltammetry, rotating disc electrodes and steady-state polarization measurement.

THERMAL-ANALYSIS OF POLYARYLENE ETHER SULFONES AND POLYIMIDES

Some results on the thermal analysis of polyimides and polyaryl ether sulfones, some reactions and the purity determination of the monomers, and the thermal stability and kinetic analysis of the thermo-oxidative degradation of these polymers are described.

BLENDS OF PHENOLPHTHALEIN POLY(ETHER ETHER KETONE) WITH PHENOXY AND EPOXY-RESIN

The properties of miscible phenolphthalein poly(ether ether ketone)/phenoxy (PEK-C/phenoxy) blends have been measured by dynamic mechanical analysis and tensile testing. The blends were found to have single glass transition temperatures (T(g)) that vary continuously with composition. The tensile moduli exhibit positive deviations from simple additivity. Marked positive deviations were also observed for tensile strength. The tensile strengths of the 90/10 and 75/25 PEK-C/phenoxy blends are higher than those of both the pure components. Embrittlement, or transition from the brittle to the ductile mode of failure, occurs in the composition range of 50-25 wt% PEK-C. These observations suggest that mixing on the segmental level has occurred and that there is enough interaction between the components to decrease its internal mobility significantly. PEK-C was also found to be miscible with the epoxy monomer, diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA), as shown by the existence of a single glass transition temperature (T(g)) within the whole composition range. Miscibility between PEK-C and DGEBA could be considered to be due mainly to entropy. However, PEK-C was judged to be immiscible with the diaminodiphenylmethane-curved epoxy resin (DDM-cured ER). It was observed that the PEK-C/ER blends have two T(g), which remain invariant with composition and are almost the same as those of the pure components, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the PEK-C/ER blends have a two-phase structure. The different miscibility with PEK-C between DGEBA and the DDM-cured ER is considered to be due to the dramatic change in the chemical and physical nature of ER after curing.
