Notizen:
A saturated triblock copolymer, poly(styrene-block-ethylene-co-butylene-block-styrene) was chemically crosslinked using trimethylol propane trimethacrylate, TMPTM, and subjected to electron beam radiation. The gel percent, Gehman ten second modulus, and stress relaxation were measured to characterize the materials as a function of crosslinker concentration and radiation level. A time-temperature super-position master curve was generated at 63°C for 3 percent TMPTM and 5 Mrads of radiation, which indicated rubbery plateau behavior at long times of measurement, as opposed to the uncrosslinked material, which continued to creep and flow. The main locus of crosslinking was within the polystyrene phase, which explains reduced creep and stress relaxation only for long times of measurement and/or high temperatures. Based on shifts of the glass transition temperatures, it was estimated that 11 to 16 percent poly(ethylene-co-butylene) was dissolved in the polystyrene phase.
