Most of the rheo-optical measurements have so far been performed by IR spectroscopy ° on film samples <50 pm thickness. With the more efficient exploitation of the NIR region, sample thickness and sample preparation have become less of an issue and polymer films up to 1 mm thickness can now be readily investigated by rheo-optical spectroscopy. The potential of FT-NIR spectroscopy can be readily illustrated by rheo-optical investigations of PDMS/polycarbonate (PC) copolymers. The mechanical properties of these segmented block copolymer networks composed of alternating PDMS and PC soft and hard blocks, respectively, such as elasticity, modulus, and stretchability are attributed to the order of the physical... [Pg.277]

Block (Star) Arrangement. The known star polymers, like their linear counterparts, exhibit microphase separation. In general, they exhibit higher viscosities in the melt than their analogous linear materials. Their rheological behavior is reminiscent of network materials rather than linear block copolymers (58). Although they have been used as compatibiUzers in polymer blends, they are not as effective at property enhancements as linear diblocks... [Pg.184]

Block copolymers with stmctures such as A—B or B—A—B ate not thermoplastic elastomers, because for a continuous network to exist both ends of the elastomer segment must be immobilized in the hard domains. Instead, they are much weaker materials resembling conventional unvulcanized synthetic mbbers (4). [Pg.12]

Blends with styrenic block copolymers improve the flexibiUty of bitumens and asphalts. The block copolymer content of these blends is usually less than 20% even as Httie as 3% can make significant differences to the properties of asphalt (qv). The block copolymers make the products more flexible, especially at low temperatures, and increase their softening point. They generally decrease the penetration and reduce the tendency to flow at high service temperatures and they also increase the stiffness, tensile strength, ductility, and elastic recovery of the final products. Melt viscosities at processing temperatures remain relatively low so the materials are still easy to apply. As the polymer concentration is increased to about 5%, an interconnected polymer network is formed. At this point the nature of the mixture changes from an asphalt modified by a polymer to a polymer extended with an asphalt. [Pg.19]

In Chapters 3 and 11 reference was made to thermoplastic elastomers of the triblock type. The most well known consist of a block of butadiene units joined at each end to a block of styrene units. At room temperature the styrene blocks congregate into glassy domains which act effectively to link the butadiene segments into a rubbery network. Above the Tg of the polystyrene these domains disappear and the polymer begins to flow like a thermoplastic. Because of the relatively low Tg of the short polystyrene blocks such rubbers have very limited heat resistance. Whilst in principle it may be possible to use end-blocks with a higher Tg an alternative approach is to use a block copolymer in which one of the blocks is capable of crystallisation and with a well above room temperature. Using what may be considered to be an extension of the chemical technology of poly(ethylene terephthalate) this approach has led to the availability of thermoplastic polyester elastomers (Hytrel—Du Pont Amitel—Akzo). [Pg.737]

Brown [46] continued the contact mechanics work on elastomers and interfacial chains in his studies on the effect of interfacial chains on friction. In these studies. Brown used a crosslinked PDMS spherical cap in contact with a layer of PDMS-PS block copolymer. The thickness, and hence the area density, of the PDMS-PS layer was varied. The thickness was varied from 1.2 nm (X = 0.007 chains per nm-) to 9.2 nm (X = 0.055 chains per nm-). It was found that the PDMS layer thickness was less than about 2.4 nm, the frictional force between the PDMS network and the flat surface layer was high, and it was also higher than the frictional force between the PDMS network and bare PS. When the PDMS layer thicknesses was 5.6 nm and above, the frictional force decreased dramatically well below the friction between PDMS and PS. Based on these data Brown [46] concluded that ... [Pg.121]

If (P ) is terminated by a chain transfer to a solvent or a monomer, a graft copolymer is formed, or, if the termination is from a combination, a crosslinked network polymer is formed. If the pre-existing polymer (B) contains an end group that itself is photosensitive (or can produce a radical by interacting with photoinitiator) and in the presence of a vinyl monomer (A), block copolymer of type AB can be produced if the photosensitive group is on one end of the polymeric chain. Type ABA block copolymer can be produced if the polymer chain (B) contains a photosensitive group on both ends. [Pg.244]

Another area of recent interest is covulcanization in block copolymers, thermoplastic rubbers, and elasto-plastic blends by developing an interpenetrating network (IPN). A classical example for IPN formation is in polyurethane elastomer blended acrylic copolymers [7]. [Pg.464]

Homopolymerization of macroazoinimers and co-polymerization of macroinimers with a vinyl monomer yield crosslinked polyethyleneglycol or polyethyleneglycol-vinyl polymer-crosslinked block copolymer, respectively. The homopolymers and block copolymers having PEG units with molecular weights of 1000 and 1500 still showed crystallinity of the PEG units in the network structure [48] and the second heating thermograms of polymers having PEG-1000 and PEG-1500 units showed that the recrystallization rates were very fast (Fig. 3). [Pg.730]

Preparation and thermal crosslinking reactions of oc, -vinylbenzyl terminated polysulfone-b-polydimethylsiloxane, ABA type block copolymers have been discussed 282,313) However, relatively little characterization was reported. Molecular weights of polysulfone and PDMS segments in the copolymers were varied between 800-8,000 and 500-11,000 g/mole, respectively. After thermal curing, the networks obtained showed two phase morphologies as indicated by the detection of two glass transition temperatures (—123 °C and +200 °C) corresponding to PDMS and polysulfone phases, respectively. No mechanical characterization data were provided. [Pg.61]
