Download or read book Polymer Blends and Alloys written by George P. Simon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distinguishing among blends, alloys and other types of combinations, clarifying terminology and presenting data on new processes and materials, this work present up-to-date and effective compounding techniques for polymers. It offers extensive analyses on the challenging questions that surround miscibility, compatibility, dynamic processing, interaction/phase behaviour, and computer simulations for predicting behaviours of polymer mixture and interaction.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the though that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemi nation. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 37 (thesis year 1992) a total of 12,549 thesis titles from 25 Canadian and 153 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 37 reports theses submitted in 1992, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Characterization of Polymer Blends

Download or read book Characterization of Polymer Blends written by Sabu Thomas and published by Wiley-Vch. This book was released on 2014-10-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filling the gap for a reference dedicated to the characterization of polymer blends and their micro and nano morphologies, this book provides comprehensive, systematic coverage in a one-stop, two-volume resource for all those working in the field. Leading researchers from industry and academia, as well as from government and private research institutions around the world summarize recent technical advances in chapters devoted to their individual contributions. In so doing, they examine a wide range of modern characterization techniques, from microscopy and spectroscopy to diffraction, thermal analysis, rheology, mechanical measurements and chromatography. These methods are compared with each other to assist in determining the best solution for both fundamental and applied problems, paying attention to the characterization of nanoscale miscibility and interfaces, both in blends involving copolymers and in immiscible blends. The thermodynamics, miscibility, phase separation, morphology and interfaces in polymer blends are also discussed in light of new insights involving the nanoscopic scale. Finally, the authors detail the processing-morphology-property relationships of polymer blends, as well as the influence of processing on the generation of micro and nano morphologies, and the dependence of these morphologies on the properties of blends. Hot topics such as compatibilization through nanoparticles, miscibility of new biopolymers and nanoscale investigations of interfaces in blends are also addressed. With its application-oriented approach, handpicked selection of topics and expert contributors, this is an outstanding survey for anyone involved in the field of polymer blends for advanced technologies.

Book Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy  A Nondestructive  Submicroscopic Characterization Technique for Structural Polymers

Download or read book Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy A Nondestructive Submicroscopic Characterization Technique for Structural Polymers written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) has been used to characterize as extruded and aged LEXAN polycarbonate. The long-lived component of the PALS analysis is attributed to orthoPositronium (oPs) pick off annihilations. The oPs pickoff component lifetime and intensity decrease as the result of the aging heat treatment, and this decrease is associated with a decrease in the free volume site size and concentration in glassy polycarbonate due to aging. Isothermal relaxation experiments performed over the range 12 C to 30 C performed on as-extruded and aged polycarbonate indicate that the relaxation kinetics are significantly different, and are consistent with a decrease in molecular mobility as the result of aging. An activation energy for structural relaxation of 8.2 kcal/mole for aged polycarbonate versus 3.0 kcal/ mole for unaged polycarbonate was determined. The relaxation kinetics observed using PALS is related to the structural state and molecular mobility of the polymer.

Book Microstructural Characterization of Semi Interpenetrating Polymer Networks by Positron Lifetime Spectroscopy

Download or read book Microstructural Characterization of Semi Interpenetrating Polymer Networks by Positron Lifetime Spectroscopy written by National Aeronautics and Space Adm Nasa and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thermoset and thermoplastic polyimides have complementary physical and mechanical properties. Whereas thermoset polyimides are brittle and generally easier to process, thermoplastic polyimides are tough but harder to process. A combination of these two types of polyimides may help produce polymers more suitable for aerospace applications. Semi-Interpenetrating Polymer Networks (S-IPN) of thermoset LaRC(TM)-RP46 and thermoplastic LaRC(TM)-IA polyimides were prepared in weight percent ratios ranging from 100:0 to 0:100. Positron lifetime measurements were made in these samples to correlate their free volume features with physical and mechanical properties. As expected, positronium atoms are not formed in these samples. The second lifetime component has been used to infer the positron trap dimensions. The 'free volume' goes through a minimum at a ratio of about 50:50, and this suggests that S-IPN samples are not merely solid solutions of the two polymers. These data and related structural properties of the S-IPN samples are discussed. Singh, Jag J. and Pater, Ruth H. and Eftekhari, Abe NASA-TP-3617, NAS 1.60:3617, L-17576 RTOP 505-63-50-01...
