The effects of polymerization factors, including monomer concentrations, temperature and initiator concentrations on the structures and properties of PAN powders were investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), total internal reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), wide-angle X-ray diffractometer (WXRD) and thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA). The polymerization kinetic and mechanistic study of PAN with DMC as the polymerization medium were discussed in details. There are three key achievements in this paper. First, the kinetic equation of PAN polymerization with DMC as a medium was established: <em>R</em><sub><em>p</em></sub> = <em>K</em>[<em>ABVN</em>]<sup>0.92</sup>[<em>AN</em>]<sup>6.78</sup>. This result shows that the <em>R</em><sub><em>p</em></sub> is highly dependent on the AN concentrations. Second, the chain transfer constant of DMC was measured to be 4.57 × 10<sup>−4</sup> at 60 °C, and the chain transfer constant increases with polymerization temperature. Lastly, the structures and properties of PAN powders prepared with H<sub>2</sub>O, tetrahydrofuran (THF) and DMC as media were compared. The results showed that the PAN prepared with DMC as a medium by free radical polymerization had a higher conversion, molecular weight and better crystalline property compared to THF. These findings indicate that DMC is a promising medium for manufacturing high quality PAN powder by free radical polymerization.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":405,"journal":{"name":"Polymer","volume":"316 ","pages":"Article 127878"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142694283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, the hydrogen bonding strength within phase-separated gelatin/acrylic acid copolymer hydrogels was modulated by varying the methyl group content in the acrylic acid copolymer. It was found the mechanical properties of the hydrogels are determined by a synergistic effect between water content and hydrogen bond strength. Both weak and strong hydrogen bonds resulted in the hydrogel with high water content and low mechanical strength. It was observed that the chain dense regions within the hydrogels became more condensed and larger with increasing hydrogen bonding strength. The high water content in gels with strong hydrogen bonds is attributed to the formation of condensed chain dense regions, which prevent significant shrinkage of the hydrogel. The combination of high water content and condensed chain dense regions resulted in sparse chain loose regions within the hydrogel, which provided water channels for ion transport, enabling high ionic conductivity even at a reduced water content of 28.9 wt%.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":405,"journal":{"name":"Polymer","volume":"316 ","pages":"Article 127870"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142690632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we propose a straightforward strategy to modulate the multi-scale structure in NR/SBR blends by incorporating an ionic liquid-like deep eutectic solvent (DES) as a novel reactive vulcanization agent. The addition of DES substantially enhances the dispersion of ZnO within NR/SBR blends, accelerates the vulcanization process of SBR and the NR/SBR blend and increases their crosslinking densities. Furthermore, DES interacts with the non-rubber components of NR, facilitating the vulcanization of NR. The impact of DES on the linear and non-linear rheological behavior of NR, SBR and NR/SBR vulcanizates is minimal, except for an enhancement in weak strain overshooting. The distribution of DES within NR/SBR blends can be manipulated by varying the mixing sequence of DES with NR and SBR, while selectively positioning DES within the SBR phase may synchronise the vulcanization rates of the NR/SBR blend, thereby improving tensile strength and reducing mechanical hysteresis. This approach may provide a viable method for producing NR/SBR blend products characterised by high strength and low hysteresis energy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":405,"journal":{"name":"Polymer","volume":"316 ","pages":"Article 127871"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142690634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings reveal a three-stage progression in the deterioration of mechanical properties due to UV aging. Initially, in the pre-aging stage (t ≤ 1 day), both mechanical properties and microscopic structural parameters remain stable, showing no significant changes. Following this, UV-induced degradation and concurrent recrystallization in the amorphous region result in a decline in mechanical parameters as the aging process continues, albeit with varying magnitudes across the stages. A notable decrease in tenacity and elongation at break is observed in the mid-aging stage (1 day < t ≤ 49 days). While the formation of low-melting-point microcrystals enhances crystallinity and crystalline size, the predominant effect of molecular chain scission due to UV exposure leads to a significant increase in carbonyl group content and a marked decrease in intrinsic viscosity. Furthermore, the formation of microcrystals hinders oxygen diffusion, resulting in the gradual stabilization of intrinsic viscosity and carbonyl content in the late-aging stage (t > 49 days), which significantly slows the deterioration of mechanical properties. These results indicate that UV-induced molecular degradation is the primary driver of changes in break elongation, while the development of new crystalline structures within the fibers contributes to the preservation of mechanical properties.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":405,"journal":{"name":"Polymer","volume":"316 ","pages":"Article 127872"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142684906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
