Dynamic mechanical relaxation structure

Reaction-induced phase separation is certainly also the reason for which an inhomogeneous structure is observed for photocured polyurethane acrylate networks based on polypropylene oxide (Barbeau et al., 1999). TEM analysis demonstrates the presence of inhomogeneities on the length scale of 10-200 nm, mostly constituted by clusters of small hard units (the diacrylated diisocyanate) connected by polyacrylate chains. In addition, a suborganization of the reacted diisocyanate hard segments inside the polyurethane acrylate matrix is revealed by SAXS measurements. Post-reaction increases the crosslink density inside the hard domains. The bimodal shape of the dynamic mechanical relaxation spectra corroborates the presence of a two-phase structure. [Pg.233]

P(VDF-TrEE), PEO N,N- dimethylformamide Differences in crystallization speed (sequential crystallization) results in a P (VDF-TrFE) fibrillar structure leading to two dynamic-mechanical relaxations. SEM, AFM, FTIR, DSC, TGA, DMA (Costa et al. 2013)... [Pg.996]

Material properties at a critical point were believed to be independent of the structural details of the materials. Such universality has yet to be confirmed for gelation. In fact, experiments show that the dynamic mechanical properties of a polymer are intimately related to its structural characteristics and forming conditions. A direct relation between structure and relaxation behavior of critical gels is still unknown since their structure has yet evaded detailed investigation. Most structural information relies on extrapolation onto the LST. [Pg.172]

The dynamic mechanical thermal analyzer (DMTA) is an important tool for studying the structure-property relationships in polymer nanocomposites. DMTA essentially probes the relaxations in polymers, thereby providing a method to understand the mechanical behavior and the molecular structure of these materials under various conditions of stress and temperature. The dynamics of polymer chain relaxation or molecular mobility of polymer main chains and side chains is one of the factors that determine the viscoelastic properties of polymeric macromolecules. The temperature dependence of molecular mobility is characterized by different transitions in which a certain mode of chain motion occurs. A reduction of the tan 8 peak height, a shift of the peak position to higher temperatures, an extra hump or peak in the tan 8 curve above the glass transition temperature (Tg), and a relatively high value of the storage modulus often are reported in support of the dispersion process of the layered silicate. [Pg.109]

The sample is loaded onto the instrument and the time reference is noted by starting a timer or resetting a timer in the software. A dynamic test for viscoelastic structure is then used to monitor changes in the sample that could result from mechanical relaxation, drying, or thixotropy. A time sweep test is usually performed at a constant temperature. The test is also run at a constant frequency that is comparable to real-time observation (typically 1 Hz) or at a constant angular frequency (10 rad/sec or 1.6 Hz). [Pg.1197]

By combining the results of several methods (dynamic mechanical, dielectric, NMR, etc.), it is usually possible to determine quite reliably the structural units whose motions give rise to secondary relaxations. If dynamic mechanical measurements alone are employed, the usual procedure is that the chemical constitution is systematically altered and correlated with the dynamic mechanical response spectra, i.e. with the temperature-dependence of the G" and G moduli. If the presence of a certain group in polymers is marked by the formation of a loss peak characterized by a certain temperature position, size and shape etc., then the conclusion may be drawn that the motional units responsible for the secondary relaxation are identical or related with that group. Naturally, the relations obtained in this way are empirical and qualitative. [Pg.130]

In the glassy state, these Ar-Al-PA exhibit local chain dynamics which are largely controlled by the chemical structure. Recently, the local motions that may occur in the glassy state and might take part in secondary transitions, have been investigated on a series of Ar-Al-PA of various chemical structures by using dielectric relaxation, 13C and 2H solid-state NMR and dynamic mechanical experiments [57-60]. [Pg.111]

In another paper in this issue [1], the molecular motions involved in secondary transitions of many amorphous polymers of quite different chemical structures have been analysed in detail by using a large set of experimental techniques (dynamic mechanical measurements, dielectric relaxation, H, 2H and 13C solid state NMR), as well as atomistic modelling. [Pg.219]

The dielectric and mechanical relaxations on poly(l,3-dioxan-5yl-methacrylate) (PDMA) [104], show that this polymer present a variety of absorptions due to the versatility of its structural moiety [105]. Recently this behavior have been studied by molecular dynamic simulation using different methods and force fields [106-109], These polymers are analyzed from molecular simulation using different ways but... [Pg.97]

We have found that in a temperature interval above Tc and below some T 300 K the nuclear spin relaxation for a broad class of cuprates comes from two independent mechanisms relaxation on the stripe -like excitations that leads to a temperature independent contribution to 1 /63i and an universal temperature dependent term. For Lai.seSro.nCuC we obtained a correct quantitative estimate for the value of the first term. We concluded from eq.(l) and Fig.3 that "stripes always come about with external doping and may be pinned by structural defects. We argue that the whole pattern fits well the notion of the dynamical PS into coexisting metallic and IC magnetic phases. Experimentally, it seems that with the temperature decrease dynamical PS acquires the static character with the IC symmetry breaking for AF phase dictated by the competition between the lattice and the Coulomb forces. The form of coexistence of the IC magnetism with SC below Tc remains not understood as well as behaviour of stoichiometric cuprates. [Pg.61]

Hard- and Soft-Segment Polymers. The structure of the diisocyanate component has a significant influence on dynamic mechanical properties of both hard- and soft-segment polymers. Both 2,4- and 2,6-TDI/ BD a relaxations occur at about the same temperature and have a comparable activation energy. However, the symmetrical structure of... [Pg.122]

Above the -relaxation process, the 2,4-TDI/PTMO polymer displayed a short rubbery plateau at a storage modulus of about 5 MPa while 2,6-TDI/PTMO was capable of crystallization, as evidenced by the ac-loss process. This difference in dynamic mechanical properties demonstrates the effect of a symmetric diisocyanate structure upon soft-segment properties. As previously discussed, single urethane links can sometimes be incorporated into the soft-segment phase. The introduction of only one of these diisocyanate molecules between two long PTMO chains inhibits crystallization if the diisocyanate is asymmetric. In the case of a symmetric diisocyanate, soft-segment crystallization above Tg can readily occur. The crystals formed were found to melt about 30°C below the reported melting point for PTMO homopolymer, 37°-43°C (19), possibly because of disruption of the crystal structure by the bulky diisocyanate units. [Pg.123]
