Notes:
Two low-temperature dynamic mechanical relaxations have been observed in networks formed by copolymerization of poly(1,2-propylene fumarate) and poly(1,2-propylene phthalate fumarate) with styrene. The γ relaxation which occurs around -100°C (1 Hz) is induced by small amounts of water, while the broad γ′ relaxation is reduced in height by the presence of water. Neither xylene nor 1,2-propylene glycol induced a γ relaxation. The γ relaxation was ascribed to motions involving a fumarate ester group-water complex.
