    Notizen: The static delamination behavior of graphite/epoxy composite specimens subjected to mode I tensile opening (using UDCBUniform double cantilever beam. specimens), and pure mode II shear loading (using ENFEnd-notched flexural. specimens) were studied. The graphite epoxy composites for the study were made from commercially treated fibers, with and without an electropolymerized interlayer. The mode I fracture energy (GIC) was found to be significantly higher (more than 50 percent) for the coated fibers. However, this improvement was accompanied by a high reduction (more than 3 times) in the mode II fracture energy (GIIC). This effect is apparently related to poor adhesion between the interlayer and the epoxy resin, which may be corrected by use of a “top layer” of appropriate composition to form chemical bonds between the phases. The fracture toughness (KIC) of composites made with commercially treated fibers was also evaluated, using double side-notched specimens.

    Heat transfer effects on the processing-structure relationships of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) based composites (1988)

    Notizen: An analytical methodology was developed capable of describing interrelations between thermal processing and polymer structure for thermoplastic based composite laminates. Specifically, this modeling methodology was used to describe experimental results generated with a specially designed match die quench mold by processing both neat PEEK polymer and carbon fiber reinforced laminate samples at different cooling rates. The developed model accurately predicted temperature profiles for PEEK laminates of different thicknesses, under normal as well as extreme quenching conditions of 114°C/s. surface cooling rates that are possible to generate with the quench mold. In general, the modeling methodology is capable of predicting a part's thermal profile during processing in terms of the composite's microscopic intrinsic properties (fiber and matrix), composition, and lamina orientation. Furthermore, by coupling to the thermal profile description, a previously developed crystallization kinetics model for PEEK polymer and its carbon reinforced composite, a quantitative description of structural development during processing was obtained. Thus, with this analytical methodology, a skin-core crystallinity profile, where the crystallinity varies with part-thickness as a result of uneven cooling experienced during processing, was predicted both for the neat PEEK polymer and its carbon reinforced laminate forms. Finally, the developed methodology clearly established the interplay of both microscopic heat transfer and kinetics of crystallization/solidification of the matrix that must be accounted for in predicting the final structure of a carbon fiber reinforced laminate that will, in turn, govern microscopic and macroscopic performance.

    Notizen: Neat poly(ether-ether-ketone) (PEEK) and carbon fiber reinforced PEEK (APC-2) specimens were prepared using a variety of cooling rates to achieve a range of crystallinities. Amorphous specimens were exposed to a variety of fluids to determine the penetrant types which are able to strongly influence the material. This allowed the estimation of the solubility parameter and hydrogen bonding index for PEEK to be 9.5 and 3.1, respectively. Methylene chloride was used to investigate the kinetics of penetrant sorption. The data demonstrated Case II behavior, with the initial crystallinity having a pronounced effect on both the kinetic and equilibrium data. Accordingly, a model was proposed capable of describing the sorption level and penetration depth as a function of time given the sample crystallinity and sorption temperature. With Case II behavior there was no difference in the sorption kinetics of neat and fiber reinforced PEEK. Finally, the dynamic mechanical properties measured during sorption were found to be dependent on the sorption process.

    Notizen: The dynamic shear viscosity and the morphology of polypropylene homopolymer and copolymer blended with linear low density polyethylene are studied. A maximum in the dynamic shear viscosity vs. blend composition is reported for the polypropylene copolymer, linear low density polyethylene system. The increasing dynamic shear viscosity is in accordance with the occurrence of a morphology of polyethylene inclusions in rubber surrounded by a polypropylene matrix. Comparing calculations of the dynamic shear viscosities - based on a shell model with interlayer - and experimental results supports this view.

    Notizen: Hydroxy-terminated copoly(fstyrene-b-1,2-butadiene) (HPSB) containing rubber-affinitive vinyl side chains and having a molecular weight of 2000 to 4000 were prepared, and block copolyurethanes were synthesized by using a low molecular weight hydroxy-terminated poly (ethyl en e terephthalate) as a PET-affinitive component and 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate as a chain extender. The relationships between the molecular weight of HPSB, copolymerization ratio of styrene to butadiene and the adhesive strength of PKT/rubber in high temperature atmospheres were examined. A peak of adhesive strength was observed at styrene copolymerization ratio of 20 wt percent and a HPSB molecular weight of 3000. The adhesion mechanism was estimated from the behavior of the characteristic infrared absorption of block Copolyurethane in heating.

    Notizen: In vibration welding of thermoplastics, frictional work done by vibrating two parts under pressure, along their common interface, is used to generate heat to effect a weld. The main process parameters in vibration welding are the weld frequency, the amplitude of the vibratory motion, the weld pressure, and the weld time. How these parameters affect weld quality, the conditions that result in the best welds, the weldability of dissimilar plastics, and the effect of fillers such as glass are of interest. To address these issues, a research vibration welding machine in which all the parameters can be independently and accurately controlled and monitored was designed and fabricated. The phenomenology of welding, as determined by experiments on the four thermoplastics polycarbonate, poly (butylene terephthalate), polyetherimide, and modified poly (phenylene oxide), is described.

    Notizen: An engineering analysis of the reactive extrusion process of a thermoplastic polyurethane was made through numerical simulation and actual experiment. The reactants used in this system were 4,4′diphenylmethane diisocyanate, polycaprolactone diol (M.W., 824), and 1,4-bu-tanediol with equivalent weight ratio of 2:1:1. As a catalyst, dibutyltin dilaurate was used. The reaction kinetics and the viscosity function were obtained through experiments, and the mathematical model which includes the conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy, and chemical species was solved numerically to obtain the velocity, concentration, temperature, viscosity, and pressure profiles. The actual experiments were performed in the laboratory scale extruder to compare the experimental results with those of the numerical simulation.

    Notizen: A series of polyurethane-urea/polyvinyl simultaneous interpenetrating polymer networks (SINs) were prepared starting from a mixture of isocyanate prepolymer blocked with N-(1-1′-dimethyl-3-cxobutyl) acrylamide oxime, chain extender, vinyl monomers, and catalysts. Their physical properties and morphology were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic mechanical measurements, and small-angle X-ray scattering. The polyurethane-urea networks examined were two-phase in nature. The vinyl network was formed with diacetone acrylamide oxime, trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, and N-vinyl-pyrrolidone. Calorimetric analyses revealed that the polyether soft segment phase separated within the SINs. At higher temperature, dynamic mechanical measurements demonstrated the presence of only one glass transition temperature (Tg) intermediate in temperature to the Tg of the vinyl network and the Tg of the urethane hard phase. This is indicative of chain entanglement (interpenetration) between the vinyl network and the polyurethane hard segments resulting in a two-phase morphology. Small-angle X-ray scattering analyses provided measurements of diffuse phase boundary thickness, phase mixing, and domain size distribution. Appreciable interfacial thickness was not observed and thus phase mixing occurred within the phases. Domain size distribution indicated that high network constraints hindered the development of domains and limited the phase segregation.

    Notizen: Equations are derived that relate the orientation of “pseudo-affine” reoriented structural units after a biaxial deformation to the degrees and the directions of the effective drawings. The connection between these drawing parameters and those externally applied is analyzed in detail. It is shown how a comparison of these two sets of drawing parameters allows conclusions regarding the distribution throughout the material of the stresses that cause the deformation, the inhomogeneity of the deformation, and the role of non-orienting flow during deformation. In particular, the orientation of biaxially drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate) films is investigated, and it is shown what general information can be obtained on the deformation behavior of this material on the basis of these considerations.

    Scale-up of single screw extruders (1987)

    Notizen: Scale-up from small laboratory size extruders to large production size extruders is a procedure of great practical importance. Many scale-up rules and theories have been proposed in the past, however it is not always clear how the different scale-up methods will affect extruder performance. A basic analysis of scale-up in plasticating single screw extruders is developed from which the effect of a certain scale-up strategy on extrusion performance can be evaluated in terms of solids conveying, melting, melt conveying, mixing, residence time, heat transfer, power consumption, and specific energy consumption. Various existing scale-up theories are evaluated and compared using the basic analysis. A number of existing scale-up theories have some significant drawbacks, in particular with non-constant specific energy consumption and imbalance between melting rate and pumping rate. Conditions that are desirable to achieve in scale-up are enumerated and ranked in terms of importance. This leads to two new scale-up methods that result in constant mechanical specific energy consumption and high throughput rates. The first scale-up method keeps the specific surface area constant. This scale-up should work well for high values of the Brinkman number. However, at low values of the Brinkman number, the melting rate may be insufficient. The second scale-up method keeps the melting rate at low Brinkman number equal to the pumping rate and, thus, should be useful in cases where the first scale-up method cannot be used.

    Notizen: The plane strain fracture toughness and fracture mechanisms of several tough engineering plastics have been studied and compared with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), a relatively brittle polymer. The tough polymers all are observed to form a multiple craze zone at the crack tip, which is shown to be the primary source of plane strain fracture toughness in these materials. The multiple craze zone is retained during slow crack growth but is metastable, and at a critical stress intensity and associated crack velocity, the system passes through a transition to a greatly accelerated single craze mode of unstable propagation.

    Notizen: Three-layer coextruded blown (either blend or composite) films, made of low-density polyethylene and linear lowdensity polyethylene (1:1 ratio) of identical density, were compared. The tensile properties of both systems are nearly as high as those of the linear polyethylene while high strain rate properties including impact strength and tear resistance of the composite film are superior. Some structural insight was obtained by thermal analysis and thermoelastic measurements. Structure property relationships are discussed in light of the unique behavior, structure, and morphology of linear low-density polyethylene. The two polyethylenes are only compatible to a rather limited extent mainly affecting their blend behavior. However, a strong mutual reinforcement effect was observed.

    Notizen: A Viton copolymer containing vinylidene fluoride (VF2) and hexafluoropropylene (HFP), and a terpolymer containing VF2, HFP, and tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) were cross linked using varying amounts of Bisphenol AF to yield two series of fluoroelastomer networks, Stress-strain isotherms in elongation were determined for these samples at several temperatures and at two degrees of swelling with phenyl acetate. Strain-induced crystallization was observed, as evidenced by upturns in the isotherms at high elongations. It appears to be more pronounced in the terpolymer samples, presumably because the TFE units not only can crystallize themselves, but can co-crystallize with the VF2 units. The crystallization was found to persist upon moderate increase in temperature, but was suppressed when the networks were swollen, Thermoelastic (force-temperature) measurements were used to obtain values of the fraction fe/f of the elastic force that is due to energetic effects. Negative values were obtained for both types of samples and, in the case of two samples studied in detail, their magnitudes increased with increase in elongation. The magnitudes were larger and the increases more pronounced in the case of the terpolymer networks, as would be expected from a greater tendency for straininduced crystallization.

    Notizen: The transesterification reaction of molten ethylene and vinyl alcohol copolymers (EVA), in presence of paraffinic alcohols and basic catalysts, leads to high conversion of the ester groups to secondary alcohol in both discontinuous and continuous processing equipment. Various kinds of alcohols and two different catalysts were used. Sodium methoxide is a powerful catalyst for the equilibrated transesterification reaction, but we also observed side reactions, such as cross-linking with low-molecular-weight alcohols and hydrolysis of the catalyst followed by partial saponification of the EVA. Kinetic studies were performed in the presence of dibutyltin dilaurate, an efficient catalyst without any side reactions. The solubility of the main alcohol reagents was verified by diffusion measurements. The general reaction scheme and the related kinetics, corresponding to a homogeneous system, lead to a fair evaluation of the rate constants.

    Notizen: The mechanical properties of polyurethane-unsaturated polyester interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) that were prepared by reaction injection molding (RIM) process were measured with variations In composition, cross-link density, and relative reaction rate. From dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), it was found that the two component polymers had a good compatibility over the whole composition range. The tensile strengths of the blends were greater than those of the pure components and had a maximum value at 50/50 composition. The modulus of elasticity and surface hardness decreased and the impact strength increased as the polyurethane content was increased, but the changes were not high at low polyurethane content, below 50%. For higher cross-link density, the compatibility was enhanced and the mechanical properties were improved. When the reaction rates of the components were different, some extent of phase separation was found in DMA and the properties were affected adversely.

    Notizen: Effects of absorbed moisture on degradation behavior of high nitrile barrier polymers were monitored using thermogravimetric analysis techniques. Non-modified and 10 percent rubber modified samples were heated isothermally at nitrile processing temperatures (200°C to 240°C) in air and nitrogen environments. Degradation was evaluated in terms of weight loss as a function of heating time and sample coloration. It was determined that complete removal of moisture, as well as high moisture concentration, contribute to increased degradation at the temperatures evaluated. Moisture levels in the range of 0.15 to 0.5 percent were found to minimize degradation. Heating environment, time, temperature, and rubber modification were also found to influence thermal stability.

    Notizen: High density polyethylene has been chlorinated by three different methods: in suspension and in solutions of two different solvents. Carbon-13 NMR and infrared analysis show that chlorination in chlorobenzene solution leads to statistically random distribution while chlorination in suspension gives highly blocky substitution. An intermediate distribution was obtained by chlorination in tetrachloroethane solution.

    Notizen: The energy stored in polystyrene after plastic deformation is measured by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique. Similar to metals, the stored energy increases with plastic straining, first rapidly, and then more slowly, and finally the stored energy seems to approach a saturation value (about 1 cal/gram). By comparing to the plastic work done, the fraction stored ranges from 30 percent after 10 percent compression to 10 percent after 60 percent compression. The fraction is about twice as large as that of copper. The release of stored energy has two distinct parts, one below Tg and the other above Tg. Most of the strain recovery seems to accompany the second part. By using the Kissinger plot, the second part has an activation energy, of 142 kcal/mole which is about 10 percent larger than that of compressive strain recovery.

    Notizen: A trial and error approach reflects the state of the art in reaction injection molding. Material and process parameters determine the “moldability” of a specific system in a particular application. The concept of “molding areas” on the critical parameters plane can be extended form thermoplastic injection molding (TIM) to reaction injection molding (RIM).In this work moldability diagrams for the filling and curing stages of a RIM process are obtained based on a simplified engineering approach. The key process parameters chosen for the filling stage are initial material temperature and filling time. In the curing stage, the critical parameters are considered to be mold wall temperature and demold time. Experimental results obtained on a laboratory-scale RIM machine on a Crosslinking polyurethane system are used to check the validity of the predicted molding areas. The agreement obtained is satisfactory considering the broad range of processing parameters used.

    Notizen: The microstructure of injection molded bars (2.9 and 5.8 mm thick) of thermotropic liquid crystalline poly(p-hydroxy-benzoic acid-co-ethylene terephthalate) has been studied by SEM on samples etched with n-propylamine, SEM fractography, DSC, IR, ESCA, WAXS and polarized microscopy. The 2.9 mm bar consists of three different layers: a highly oriented surface skin, an oriented intermediate layer and a non-oriented core. The 5.8 mm bar has a more complex microstructure and is composed of five different layers: a highly oriented surface skin, an oriented layer just beneath, a non-oriented layer, another oriented layer and a non-oriented core. The thicknesses of the different layers vary, significantly, with distance from the mold gate. The thickness of the core increases, significantly, with increasing distance from the mold gate at the expense of the oriented layers. The structure within the different morphological layers is not perfectly uniform. Tensile testing demonstrated the mechanical anisotropy of the surface material (a ratio of almost 20 between the longitudinal and transverse moduli) and the isotropy of the central core material.

    Notizen: Rolling-drawing is a simple, effective, solid state processing technique for manufacturing high strength and high modulus oriented polymer sheet products. The process is capable of increasing the tensile modulus and strength of polypropylene by more, than an order of magnitude with inexpensive equipment and straight forward controllable techniques. This paper gives an overview of the rolling-drawing of polypropylene. It is intended to answer the following questions. What is rolling-drawing? What changes in tensile properties can be expected as a result of this process? What deformation processes occur during rolling-drawing? What are the processing variables and how do these variables relate to the deformation ratio achieved by rolling-drawing? A tensile flow stress relationship was formulated from experimental data for oriented polypropylene. This constitutive equation, estimates the flow stress (or yield stress) of the polymer as a function of deformation ratio, strain rate and temperature. Since stretching was found to provide a significant portion of the deformation during the rolling-drawing process a Hoffman-Sachs computer analysis was written to predict plastic deformation and drawing forces in the stretch zone. The results of experimentation and the analysis are briefly compared in this paper.

    Molecular structure, crystallization behavior, and morphology of fractions obtained from an extrusion grade high-density polyethylene (1988)

    Notizen: An extrusion-grade of high density polyethylene (HOPE) (3 ethyl groups per 1000 carbons) has been divided into 16 fractions by preparative GPC and selective p-xylene extraction. The fractions, with molecular weights ranging from 900 to 1,000,000, have been studied by IR spectros-copy, DSC, WAXS, polarized microscopy, and small-angle light scattering (SALS), The average degree of chain branching (percent C2H5) is 0.5 percent for the part of the sample having a molecular weight lower than 10,000 and it decreases monotonically with increasing molecular weight, finally approaching 0.1 percent C2H5. A crystallinity depression with respect to linear PE equivalent to 20 percent/(percent C2H5) is recorded for all samples except for the very low molecular weight samples for which the crystallinity depression is much larger (30 to 35 percent/ (percent C2H5)). The unit cell volume increases with increasing percent C2H5, presumably due to the inclusion of ethyl groups in the crystals as interstitlals at 2gl kinks. The concentration of ethyl groups in the crystals (∊c) unanimously follows the relationship: ∊c(percent) = 0.32 + 0.25 log(percent C2H5) except for the low molecular weight fractions which have significantly lower values for ∊c. Our admittedly speculative explanation for this major discrepancy between high and low molecular weight samples is based on the idea that segments with ethyl groups close to chain ends have a greater difficulty in crystallizing than segments containing ethyl groups located at positions far from the chain ends. The fractions obtained from the extrusion-grade HDPE show a solidification temperature depression with respect to linear PE which can only be explained by the presence of chain branches in these samples. The depression is particularly pronounced for the low molecular weight samples as is expected from the data on molecular structure. Well-developed non-banded spherulites are observed in rapidly cooled (crystallized at about 35 K supercooling), low molecular weight samples (6,000 〈 Mw 〈 8,000)from the extrusion-grade HDPE in contrast to the axialites observed in linear PE of the same molecular weight and thermal treatment. This discrepancy in morphology has been related to the presence of ethyl groups in the extrusion grade HDPE fractions. Higher molecular weight samples (20,000 〈 Mw 〈 1,000,000)from the extrusion-grade HDPE and linear PE both display well-developed banded spherulites of similar nature as is expected due to the similarity in molecular structure of the two sets of sample.

    Notizen: In this work, a concept of distributed damage, including its inception and propagation, was applied to creep induced buckling of specimens prepared from high density polyethylene (HDPE). Using a kinetic relationship for damage accumulation, an integral equation for the front of the damage zone was derived. A time parameter associated with the inception of the damage front was obtained. The motion of the front was approximated for small times. Long time estimation was obtained using an assumption for a shape of the damage distribution. These results enabled us to review reported experimental results on creep induced buckling using a new insight into the relationship between applied load and time to buckle.

    Notizen: We present a basic study of the thermal, dielectric, Theological, and mechanical properties of hydroxybenzoic acid-ethylene terephthalate copolymers (PHB-PET). It is argued that they have two-phase structures, one rich in ethylene terephthalate (PET) and one rich in hydroxybenzoic acid (PHB). Polystyrene (PS) is immiscible in 60% PHB-PET (60-PHB-PET) blends. Polycarbonate (PC) is partially miscible with the high PET phase of 60-PHB-PET. PET seems completely miscible with this high PET phase. Shear viscosity measurements on blends indicate that 60-PHB-PET gives rise to large reductions of viscosity. Extrudates and melt-spun fibers have been prepared. The phase morphologies of low PHB-PET blends as determined by scanning electron microscopy indicate ellipsoids or long fibrils of the, 60-PHB-PET in PS or PC matrices. High extrusion rates and melt spinning produce fibrillar structures. The mechanical properties of films, extrudates, and melt-spun fibers were studied. Blends with 10% 60-PHB-PET exhibited significant increases in Young's modulus and tensile strength.

    Notizen: The kinetics of the activated anionic polymerization of caprolactam to nylon-6 and its copolymers has been studied. Nylon-6 block copolymer and nylon-6 were prepared at various initial reaction temperatures (140°C to 165°C) by anionic polymerization in an adiabatic dewar flask. Different concentrations of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in 4,4′-diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI)-capped PEO and 1 mole percent MDI, in a caprolactam solution, were used as the activators with the catalyst, the sodium salt of caprolactam. The kinetics of the reaction were analyzed from an adiabatic temperature rise. A new method was applied to determine the rate parameters. The activation energy, Ea, of nylon-6 and nylon-6 block copolymers were found to be 22 kcal/mole. The collision frequency factor, Ao, steadily decreased and the autocatalytic constant, Bo, decreased to a constant value of 16 with the introduction of PEO. However, it was found that the order of reaction, n, was almost a constant value at the second order for all experiments.

    Notizen: Chlorination of high density; polyethylene results in polymers which consist of unmodified methylene units and chlorinated methylene co-units. The effect of the concentration and distribution of chlorinated units on the solid state structure has been examined by thermal, wide angle X-ray diffraction and dynamic mechanical analysis. As the substitution becomes more random, the crystallinity, crystallite size, and crystalline perfection decrease for a given chlorine content. The chlorinated units are shown to be capable of co-crystallizing, and the concentration of chlorine in the crystalline phase increases as the distribution is made more random. Concurrently, the chlorine concentration of the amorphous phase decreases. Segregation of chlorine into the amorphous regions is most efficient when the substitution is blocky.

    An efficient algorithm of computation of molecular weight distributions and its moments for reversible step growth polymerization in homogeneous continuous flow stirred tank reactors (1988)
    Stamford, Conn. [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notizen: The reversible step growth polymerization in homogeneous continuous flow stirred tank reactors (HCSTRs), in which the condensation product (W) leaves the reactor through flashing, has been analyzed. The molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the polymer formed is governed by nonlinear coupled algebraic relations to be solved simultaneously. To find the MWD numerically a large number of these are normally solved simultaneously using a suitable iterative procedure. In this paper, these have been decoupled using the technique proposed in our earlier works (1, 2) and the MWD can now be obtained sequentially without any trial and error. This leads to considerable saving in computation time compared to methods currently used. To demonstrate the efficacy of the algorithm, the polycondensation step of the poly(ethylene terephthal-ate) (PET) formed in HCSTRs has been analyzed. The MWD, the average chain length and the polydispersity index of the polymer have been computed and it takes 0.1 CPU seconds on a DEC 1090 as opposed to the earlier method which would take seventy minutes for similar computations. The simple model of the HCSTR for the PET formation gives the effect of reactor temperature and pressure and the quantitative results have been presented in this paper.

    Notizen: A mathematical model is presented which describes the degree of cure in a thermosetting adhesive used to bond sheet molding compound (SMC) components. The model allows computer aided optimization of the thermosetting process for any type of electromagnetic heating of the various layers of the structure (e.g. dielectric, microwave or induction), arbitrary material properties and arbitrary layer thickness. Computer simulated results are given for the particular case when the cure of the thermosetting material is initiated by its exposure to a high-power radio-frequency electric field (dielectric heating). These results indicate a strong sensitivity of the process to the thickness of the adhesive layer and the degree of coupling with the electromagnetic field. The analysis demonstrates that substantial heat losses from the relatively thin adhesive layer to the structural members of the joint by diffusive heat flow can be counterbalanced by additional electric power dissipated either in the adhesive or the structural members of the joint. Although derived for dielectric heating, those results are general, being independent of the type of electromagnetic heating employed.

    Notizen: Linearly tapered coat hanger dies or T-dies are widely accepted. Nevertheless a newly proposed curvilinearly tapered coat hanger die has been shown to perform much better. It costs about the same as the other types of dies. This contribution is considered in terms of the recent literature.

    Notizen: We have determined the degree of stiffness of a poly(γ-benzyl α, L-glutamate) (PBLG) chain in benzyl alcohol by measuring the intrinsic viscosities of dilute Solutions with differing molecular weights. Viscoelastic properties in oscillatory shear flow have been studied and the dependence of the loss and storage moduli on temperature, composition, and frequency are reported. We have also studied the transient shear stress relaxation behavior of the PBLG gel at different temperatures and concentrations. A comparison has been made between these gels and a classical poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) network, as well as, typical glassy polymers. Shear creep and recovery measurements have been made for this system. Some extensional step strain experiments using lubricated squeezing have been investigated. Tensile experiments have been made to determine stress-strain relationship during elongation. Preliminary experiments using the impulse approach to viscoelasticity further indicate the high elastic contribution in the gel.

    Notizen: It is well known that equilibrium, thermodynamic properties are governed by different functional derivatives of the thermodynamic functions of state. For example, the phase behavior of mixtures of low and/or high molar mass components is determined by the compositional derivatives of the free energy. In this contribution, the merits of the Simha-Somcynsky theory in describing and predicting the phase behavior of mixtures are considered. The influence of temperature and composition on the miscibility behavior for practically binary polymer solutions are studied. Furthermore, the important aspect of polydispersity, inherent to synthetic polymer systems will be addressed.
