The effect of segment length on some properties of thermoplastic poly(ester–siloxane)s

A series of novel thermoplastic elastomers, based on poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) as the soft segment and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) as the hard segment, were synthesized by catalyzed two‐step, melt transesterification reactions of dimethyl terephthalate and methyl esters of carboxypropyl‐terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane)s (M?_n = 550–2170 g mol^?1) with 1,4‐butanediol. The lengths of both the hard and soft segments were varied while the weight ratio of the hard to soft segments in the reaction mixture was maintained constant (57/43). The molecular structure, composition and molecular weights of the poly(ester–siloxane)s were examined by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The effectiveness of the incorporation of the methyl‐ester‐terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane)s into the copolymer chains was verified by chloroform extraction. The effect of the segment length on the transition temperatures (T_m and T_g) and the thermal and thermo‐oxidative degradation stability, as well as the degree of crystallinity and hardness properties of the synthesized TPESs, were studied.

The flame retardant mechanism of polyolefins modified with chalk and silicone elastomer

This paper presents the current understanding of the flame retardant mechanism of Casico?. The study includes the flame retardant effect of each individual component: ethylene–acrylate copolymer, chalk and silicone elastomer, as well as the formation of an intumescent structure during heating. The flame retardant properties were investigated by cone calorimetry and oxygen index tests. To obtain insight into the flame retardant mechanism, heat treatment under different conditions has also been performed. The results indicate that the flame retardant mechanism of Casico is complex and is related to a number of reactions, e.g. ester pyrolysis of acrylate groups, formation of carbon dioxide by reaction between carboxylic acid and chalk, ionomer formation and formation of an intumescent structure stabilized by a protecting char. Special emphasis is given to the formation of the intumescent structure and its molecular structure as evaluated from ¹³C MAS‐NMR and ²⁹Si MAS‐NMR, ESCA and XRD analysis. After treatment at 500°C the intumescent structure consists mainly of silicon oxides and calcium carbonate and after treatment at 1000°C the intumescent structure consists of calcium silicate, calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide.

The effect of temperature on the dynamic characteristics of heat-resistant thermoplastic composites

Two thermoplastic and two thermosetting fibrereinforced plastic composites were subjected to dynamic tests over a wide range of temperature, covering both cryogenic and hot environments. The thermal behaviour of each composite, as indicated by its dynamic mechanical properties, was assessed individually, and was compared collectively with that of the other composites.

Pressure Response through Valve for Continuous Oil-Water Separation Based on a Flexible Superhydrophobic/Superoleophilic Thermoplastic Vulcanizate Film

Highly efficient oil-water separation shows urgent demand in industrial applications, especially in oil-spill accidents and organic solvent separation. Herein, a novel method is proposed for continuous oil-water separation by a pressure response through valve, which is loaded in a flexible convolute superhydrophobic/superoleophilic film based on low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV). The superhydrophobic/superoleophilic LDPE/EPDM TPV film (with contact angles of oil and water are 0° and 161.9°± 2.2°) is prepared only via a molding process where sandpaper is used as the template. The superhydrophobic/superoleophilic property of the TPV film shows robust performance in the activity endurance test. More importantly, the flexible LDPE/EPDM TPV film can be easily rolled up and loaded in through valve, which is the pressure response channel in oil-water separation. The typical separation pressure of oil and water is 3.01 and 6.17 kPa, which means the oil can be completely separated from the oil-water mixture under proper pressure in the pressure response through valve.

PP／mPE／无机填料三元复合材料的形态结构和力学性能

采用刚性无机填料对茂金属聚乙烯（mPE)弹性体增韧聚丙烯（PP）二元共混体系进行增强，从而制得PP／mPE无机填料三元复合材料。分别探讨了CaCO3用量对复合材料拉伸性能和低温冲击性能影响，并考察了不同填料的增强效果。实验结果表明，由于弹性体的存在，无机填料的增强作用减弱；共混物的低温冲击强度也因填料的加入而大幅度下降，但经过表面处理的高岭土体系的冲击强度反而提高。SEM断裂形貌显示，未经表面处理的填料和基体的界面结合较弱，而改性高岭土则以层状结构分散于基体中，并呈现牢固的界面结合。
