    Notes: Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a bacterially produced thermoplastic. Melt-cast PHB sheets are usually quite brittle. We show that this brittleness is due to cracks within the spherulites. These cracks, which may be either radial or circumferential within the spherulites, depending on the crystallization temperature, form under conditions of no externally applied stress. When the material is strained the cracks grow and join together, leading to brittle failure. It is possible to produce ductile PHB sheets in two ways: first, the cracks may be “healed” by a cold rolling process; second, special crystallization conditions can be used to produce ductile sheets consisting entirely of crack-free spherulites. The relevance of this work to the ductility of crystalline thermoplastic in general is discussed.

    Notes: Dielectric relaxation studies have been used as a means of investigating the behavior of aromatic molecules dissolved in a semicrystalline polymer. All molecules show a relaxation in the vicinity of the γ loss peak of polyethylene, while several show an additional peak at lower temperatures. The latter is interpreted as an indicator of molecular motions below the glass transition and the former is to be associated with the onset of molecular motions on a local scale as the glass transition is approached. The α loss process of polyethylene is seemingly unaffected by the presence of the molecules. Integration of loss curves shows that, at most, 50% of the molecules are able to relax but that the fraction relaxing increases with increasing temperature, suggesting the presence of a wide distribution of sites within the polymer.

    Notes: Linear low-density polyethylenes (LLDPES) and polypropylene (PP) have been recovered from solutions of varying initial polymer concentration. Melts of these polymers show significant reductions in viscosity and elasticity, and the effects are attributed to changes in the entanglement density of the polymer. Measurements of entanglement densities have been attempted from experimental values of the apparent zero-shear melt viscosity. These indicate that solution treatments in trichlorobenzene at 135°C reduce the entanglement density more effectively in PP than in LLDPE. In all cases the observed effects are reversible by annealing at elevated temperatures. Analytic data point to entanglement changes as the true origin of changes in viscoelastic properties, since solution treatments produce no changes in molecular weights and weight distributions, and the samples tested are free of solvent residues.

    Notes: The crystallization kinetics and resultant morphologies of thin films of cis-polyisoprenes from guayule rubber have been studied using osmium tetroxide staining and transmission electron microscopy. Polymers used were extracted from the plant either on a laboratory scale or in a pilot plant operation. The polymers show significantly different behavior with regard to both morphological features and to lamellar growth rates. Freshly extracted cis-polyisoprene as well as freshly prepared specimens of pilot plant rubber show only α growth, as in cis-polyisoprene from hevea, but a slightly faster lamellar growth rate. Aged pilot plant rubber shows both α and β growth, both at higher rates than in natsyn, with the rate of α growth being lower than in hevea. Freshly extracted and aged specimens show a maximum lamellar growth rate at -20°C, whereas the maximum for pilot plant rubber occurs at -24°C. The data are interpreted in terms of oxidation of double bonds during aging to produce pendant ester groups. Lamellar growth rates and infrared analyses are both consistent with 1.2-1.5% of the double bonds being affected. Data from guayule and natsyn are now consistent in showing that the effects of microstructural impurities on the crystallization of cis-polyisoprene are to reduce the rates of α-lamellar growth and to induce the β growth, which would not otherwise exist. Secondary nucleation analyses show the regime II-III transition, as in hevea; however, the temperature of the transition, as well as the ratio of the slopes, is different for this linear polymer.

    Notes: High-strength/high-modulus structures such as fibres, tapes and rods can be produced currently on the basis of intrinsically flexible macromolecules. The prime example amongst these new developments is gelspinning of high-molecular-weight polyethylene resulting in fibrous structures possessing tenacities of 3-4 GPa and corresponding moduli up to appr. 150 GPa. The basic aspects of chain-extension for polyethylene will be discussed in relation to the various routes toward oriented/extended PE structures as well as recent developments concerning the utilization of other flexible polymeric systems for the production of high-strength/high-modulus fibres.

    Notes: Large-scale fire experiments have been carried out in a special test rig to study the chemical nature of fire atmosphere using a ‘fingerprint’ sampling and analysis method. Four polymeric materials - wood, polypropylene, polymethyl methacrylate and polystyrene foam - were used separately as fuel, with both high and low ventilation. In addition to oxides of carbon the fingerprints yielded typically between twenty and forty different chemical compounds including several (e.g. aldehydes) which could contribute significantly to the irritancy of the fire gases. The change in nature of the fingerprint gases with the different ventilation conditions, different polymeric materials and with different stages of the same fire is discussed, together with the toxicological significance of the results.

    Notes: The hazards resulting rom smoke emission were widely recognized in the early 1970s as a result of several major fire disasters. Since that time considerable interest has been shown in the development of smoke-suppressants. This paper reviews some of the very promising results that have been obtained using molybdenuem comounds as flame-retardants and smoke-suppressantes in halogenated polymers. They have been shown to be effective in both rigid and flexible grades of PVC. In the rigid grades these compounds can reduce smoke emission by at least 80%. Reductions in excess of 50% have been observed with typical plasticized formulations, although the magnitude of the effect here depends on both the type and level of plasticizer. Comparisons of the results of different smoke tests suggest that the small-scale tests commonly used do not fully reflect the true extent of the smoke-reductions that are obtainable with these combounds. Significant reductions in smoke-emission have also been obtained with halogenated polyester thermosets and chlorinated elastomer formulations. With the polyesters some of the best results occurred when molybdenum oxide was used in conjunction with alumunium trihydrate. In all cases these compounds proved to have significant flame-retardant properties. Reference has been made in the paper to their mode of activity but the actual mechanistic investigations have not been discussed in detail.
