    Elaboration and Characterization of Conductive Polymer Nanocomposites with Potential Use as Electrically Driven Membranes (2019)
    Molecular Diversity Preservation International
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: In this work, a general, facile, and relatively low-cost method to produce electrically driven non-porous membranes by revalorization of recycled polyolefins is proposed. The polymer matrices are poly(propylene) (PP) and poly(ethylene) (PE) and their corresponding recycled samples, which are respectively mixed with carbon nanotubes (CNT). The performances of the elaborated nanocomposites are studied by morphological, rheological, and electrical conductivity tests. The Joule heating effect is evaluated by applying an electric field and recording the corresponding temperature rise. An increase of 90 °C is obtained in certain cases, which represents the highest temperature enhancement reached so far by the Joule effect in thermoplastics, to our knowledge. The work shows a route to develop stimulus (voltage)-response (temperature) materials with low cost and with potential applications in many fields. As an example, the increase of the permeability with temperature of membranes made of the indicated nanocomposites, is analyzed.

    Melt Memory Effects in Poly(Butylene Succinate) Studied by Differential Fast Scanning Calorimetry (2020)
    Molecular Diversity Preservation International
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-26
    Description: It is widely accepted that melt memory effect on polymer crystallization depends on thermal history of the material, however a systematic study of the different parameters involved in the process has been neglected, so far. In this work, poly(butylene succinate) has been selected to analyze the effect of short times and high cooling/heating rates that are relevant from an industrial point of view by taking advantage of fast scanning calorimetry (FSC). The FSC experiments reveal that the width of melt memory temperature range is reduced with the time spent at the self-nucleation temperature (Ts), since annealing of crystals occurs at higher temperatures. The effectiveness of self-nuclei to crystallize the sample is addressed by increasing the cooling rate from Ts temperature. The effect of previous standard state on melt memory is analyzed by (a) changing the cooling/heating rate and (b) applying successive self-nucleation and annealing (SSA) technique, observing a strong correlation between melting enthalpy or crystallinity degree and the extent of melt memory. The acquired knowledge can be extended to other semicrystalline polymers to control accurately the melt memory effect and therefore, the time needed to process the material and its final performance.

    Matching Rheology, Conductivity and Joule Effect in PU/CNT Nanocomposites (2021)
    Molecular Diversity Preservation International
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-03-19
    Description: We investigated polyurethane (PU)–carbon nanotube (CNT) nanocomposites (PU/CNT) in a range of concentrations from 1 to 8 wt% CNT as hot melt adhesives. We studied the thermal properties of the nanocomposites, which is relevant from an applied point of view. The phase angle plots versus complex modulus results revealed the existence of a maximum above a given CNT concentration. The intensity of the peak and associated relaxation time was analyzed with percolation theory, leading to a new method to determine the rheological percolation threshold. A lower threshold value was obtained from the electrical conductivity data, which was justified recalling that the hopping/tunnelling effect takes place in the nanocomposite, as stated by previous studies in the literature. Joule effect studies indicated that the heating effect was very significant, reaching temperature increases, ΔT, of 60 °C for low voltages. For the first time, the percolation equation was applied to the ΔT to obtain the corresponding threshold. Stimulus-responsive systems were conceived considering the correlation between the ΔT and the conductivity. The case of PU/CNT nanocomposites acting as hot melt adhesives that are welded/unglued by applying/removing an electrical voltage is presented.
