Study of the blends containing core-shell latex polymer

Polycarbonate (PC) and a core-shell latex polymer composed of poly(butyl acrylate) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PBA-cs-PMMA) as core and shell, respectively, were mixed using a Brabender-like apparatus under different conditions. The mechanical properties, the morphology and the processability of the blends were investigated. Because of the good compatibility of PC and PMMA, even dispersion of PBA-cs-PMMA in PC matrix and good adhesion between the components have been achieved. PBA-cs-PMMA is thus a very good impact modifier for PC. The toughening mechanism is both cavitation and shear yielding, as indicated by SEM observation. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Toughening of poly(butylene terephthalate) with epoxidized ethylene propylene diene rubber

In this paper, unepoxidized ethylene propylene diene rubber (uEPDM) was first epoxidized with formic acid and H2O2, and then the epoxidized ethylene propylene diene rubber (eEPDM) was melt-mixed with PET resin in a Brabender-like apparatus. Toughening of PET matrix was achieved by this method. The dispersion of rubber particles and phase structure of the blends were also observed by SEM. It has been suggested that the epoxy groups in the eEPDM could react with PET end groups to form a graft copolymer which could act as an interfacial compatibilizer between the PBT matrix and eEPDM rubber dispersed phase. This is beneficial to the improvement of the impact performance of PBT. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Impedance spectrum measurement in liquid liquid interface electrochemistry .1. Analysis of various kinds of interfacial impedance in the four-electrode system

Applying impedance spectrum technique to liquid/liquid interfacial electrochemistry, we present the theoretical expression of the liquid/liquid interfacial impedance in the four - electrode electrolytic cell measured by alternating current impedance method. The influence of the electrolytic cell parameters and input passage parameters of the impedance apparatus on impedance spectrum curves are theoretically studied.

Mechanical properties and miscibility of polyethersulfone phenoxy blends

The blends of polyethersulfone and phenoxy were prepared by melt mixing in a Brabender-like apparatus. The specimens for measurements were made by compression molding and then were water-quenched at room temperature under pressure. The tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation at break and yield, density, thermal analysis, and dynamic mechanical properties were each measured. The dependence of tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation at break and yield, and density on composition was obtained. The relationship between tensile modulus and elongation at break and yield and speed of the crosshead at different weight ratios of the blends is shown. The effects of composition and miscibility on the mechanical properties are discussed. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

GAS PERMEABILITIES OF POLY(TRIMETHYLSILYLPROPYNE) MEMBRANES SURFACE MODIFIED WITH CF4 PLASMA

Surface fluorination of poly (trimethylsilylpropyne) (PTMSP) membranes by CF4 plasma was studied. The surface fluorination of the membranes was carried out in an atmosphere of CF4 in a capacitively coupled discharge apparatus with external electrodes. Dramatic increase in selectivity (P(O2)/P(N2)) was observed. The effect of fluorination conditions such as duration of treatment and discharge power on the permeabilities of the membranes was studied. X-ray photoelectron spectrometric data of modified PTMSP membranes showed a drastic alternation in the surface layer. The P(O2) and P(O2)/P(N2) of the membranes were observed to be dependent on the F/C atomic ratio. At F/C > 1, the P(O2/P(N2) value of the membranes could be more than four.

P wave velocity of the pumice from the Okinawa Trough at high temperature and high pressure.

P wave velocity of the pumice sample from the middle Okinawa Trough and andesite sample from vicinity Yingdao volcanic island, Kyushu Japan were measured at temperature (from room temperature to 1500 C) and pressure (from room pressure to 2.4GPa) using a multi-anvil pressure apparatus called the YJ-3000 press. The measured data shows that at low temperature and low pressure (<1GPa, <800degreesC), the P wave velocity of pumice is lower than that of andesite, while at high temperature and high pressure (>1GPa, >800degreesC) the P wave velocity of pumice and andesite. becomes consistent (5.9km/s). The paper points out that 1GPa/800degreesC is the point of thermodynamic phase transformation Okinawa Trough pumice and vicinity andesite, and the point is deeper than 18km.
