    Notes: Polymer blends of nylon 66 and thermotropic polyester with long flexible spacers in the main chains were prepared by melt mixing. The samples were made as single filaments by passing the polymer blend through a small and round die of a capillary rheometer. Mechanical properties of blends showed that the modulus and strength of nylon 66 could be improved without reduction of extensibility. The morphology of fractured surfaces was observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM). It showed that the microfibrillar structure of a thermotropic polyester was formed by extensional flow while the spherical and ellipsoidal particles in the nylon 66 (matrix polymer) were produced by shear flow. The polyester particles were occasionally covered with adhering matrix polymer because of good adhesion between these two polymers. They were highly elongated by tensile stress without loss of elongational characteristics of blends. This fact was explained by very good adhesion between the two phases.

    Notes: The physical behavior of the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A, cured with different concentrations of 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole, was examined with dynamic mechanical and dielectric analyses, differential scanning calorimetry, and solvent extraction studies, ‘The network formation process was shown to depend strongly on the imidazole concentration’. At high imidazole concentrations, the gel point was characterized by a decrease in sol fraction, the crossover of the dynamic moduli and a rapid increase in viscosity. At low imidazole concentrations, the viscosity remained low until the sol fraction approached zero. For this system, the gel point, which occurred prior to the dynamic moduli crossover, was characterized by comparing the thermal properties of the network with the viscosity and dielectric behavior of the resin system during cure.

    Notes: We examine several practically important problems, related to the mechanical behavior of dual coated optical fibers: low temperature microbending, evaluation of spring constant due to coating layers, strength of the end portions of fibers clamped in terminal fixtures, and prediction of stresses caused by the misalignment of the openings in the frame and in the terminal fixture. The developed formulas are simple, easy-to-use, and clearly indicate the role of the major factors affecting the mechanical behavior of the fibers. The obtained results can be of help in physical design of dual coated fibers and optical interconnections.

    Energy absorption characteristics of polymeric foams used as cushioning materials (1990)
    Stamford, Conn. [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: The “Efficiency of Energy Absorption” (or “Efficiency”) and “Ideality” parameters were evaluated for several plastic foams and were found to be very useful in choosing an appropriate cushion for the protection of a specific product. The maxima in these parameters were found to be in the same range of stresses, when derived from dynamic measurements or from predicted stress-strain curves based on previously proposed “Reference” and “Modified Boltzman Superposition” Models. For the rate independent foams the maxima in these parameters do not change with strain rate and can therefore be derived from slow, constant rate (“static”) experiments. For rate dependent foams however, the maxima from “static” measurements were found to be in a lower range of stresses than those derived from dynamic ones. As a result, slow rate compressive measurements do not predict well the behavior of the foams during impact and the use of the “Reference” and “Modified Boltzman Superposition” Models is required for good predictions. It was found that the suffer PS and PE foams attain maximum Efficiency and Ideality at higher stresses than the more flexible PUR foams.

    Transition mechanism from elastic deformation to plastic flow in poly(methyl methacrylate) (1990)
    Stamford, Conn. [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: Sudden changes of compressive strain-rate on glassy poly(methyl methacrylate) lead to the conclusion that the post-yield state under a constant stress is a state of steady flow in the polymer. Non-linearity between the stress divided by temperature and the logarithm of strain rate for this steady plastic flow can successfully be analyzed using the Eyring equation with structural factors variable depending on stress and temperature. This analysis gives a unique functional relationship between the activation entropy and the activation enthalpy, which agrees fairly well with that for the melt derived from the WLF equation. This agreement provides a direct evidence verifying structural change of the glass into liquid-like structure and enables us to recognize the conformational arrangement as an essential structural parameter controlling molecular mobility. Another experimental relation between the Eyring factors - the activation volume and the activation enthalpy - permits us to estimate the magnitude of an elementary volume for the molecular movement in the melt as a function of temperature. Moreover, the experimental finding of the steady flow in the glassy polymer motivated us to propose a transition mechanism from elastic deformation to plastic flow in which the internal viscosity or the activation volume is introduced as a single parameter representing the transient state of the structure.

    Experimental modeling of solvent-casting thin polymer films (1990)
    Stamford, Conn. [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: An apparatus was designed and assembled to study the solvent removal from solution-cast thin polymer films. The computer interfacing of a thermogravimetric analyzer, spectrophotometer, electronic flowmeters, and control valves for the apparatus enabled the preprogramming of the carrier gas velocity, carrier gas solvent content, and temperature profiles to simulate the environment experienced in large parallel flow industrial driers. The apparatus has also been designed and operated to enable the visual observation of the drying film with an optical microscope. Initial experimental studies conducted with the apparatus involved the effect of temperature on solvent removal. The results indicate that high dryer gas temperatures can apparently cause skinning of the film surface resulting in slower solvent removal rates. The skin formation can be suppressed by higher solvent concentration in the carrier gas. The visual observations revealed the formation of standing waves in the film surface during drying at high gas velocities (〉2OO cm/min). The wave formation at least partially overcomes the effect of skinning by increasing the surface area of the film, and may be the manifestation of flow instabilities involving circulation within the film.

    Notes: Ultrasonically induced bubble formation for the production of thermoplastic foam was investigated experimentally and theoretically as a basic study. A general purpose polystyrene and blends of low density polyethylene and polyethylene wax were saturated with nitrogen gas under various pressures and the ultrasonic excitation was applied to the polymer system upon release of gas pressure. The ultrasonic nucleation of bubbles in the polymer matrix was modeled by utilizing the classical nucleation theory. The negative pressure generated by the ultrasonic excitation was considered as the environmental pressure at the moment of nucleation. The experimental results showed that the heterogeneous nucleation must be used for ultrasonic foaming of the viscous fluid and the homogeneous nucleation for the low viscosity fluid. The theoretical analysis also indicated that the ultrasonic nucleation can be applied to the production of thermoplastic foam if the ultrasonic excitation generates large enough negative pressure.

    Rheology-morphology relationships in nylon 6/liquid-crystalline polymer blends (1990)

    Notes: Extrusion measurements have been carried out on blends of nylon 6 and a liquid-crystalline copolyesteramide (LCP). The flow curves at low temperature show a behavior similar to that of pure LCP with a rapid rise of the viscosity at low shear rates. At high shear rates the viscosity is lower than that for each of the two components. This minimum has been attributed to the lack of interactions between the two phases and to the formation of fibrils of the LCP phase. The SEM analysis shows, indeed, that fibrils of the LCP phase are produced in the convergent flow at the inlet of the capillary at high shear rates. These fibrils are lost during the flow in the long capillary.

    Notes: Rheological studies of an experimental liquid crystalline (LC) copolyester were carried out using a capillary rheometer and a cone and plate rheometer. Rheological characteristics of the polymer in the nematic state were observed. The nematic melt was found to be pseudoplastic and the degree of pseudoplasticity varied with shear rate. Melt viscosity was found to decrease with shear rate. Negative die swelling was observed at the exit of the capillary rheometer at temperatures marginally above the solid-nematic transition temperature of the polymer and was also found to be a function of shear rate. The dynamic mechanical properties of the polymer were studied as a function of temperature. The activation energies of flow and of dynamic mechanical deformation were calculated.

    Notes: Ion beam mixing was used to improve the adhesion between deposited Cu film (400 Å) and polyimide (PI) substrate. Ar+ ion with the energy levels between 180 and 200 keV, and the dose between 1014 to 4 × 1016 ions/cm2 were used. The surface analyses were carried out by Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (SEM). RBS analysis, using 2 MeV He+ ions, showed mixing of Cu and FI and the mixing depended on the Ar+ energy and dose. The X-ray study showed a very broad halo for deposited Cu film but the (111) peak appeared after the Ar+ implantation and the peak increased with Ar+ ion dose. Optical micrographs showed that Cu film formed circular bubbles after many thermal cycles when adhesion was poor and fracture cracks when adhesion was good.
