Supramolecular Modifications of Semicrystalline Polymers

Michael Alan Giffin

Supramolecular interactions play an important role in defining the structure and the resulting mechanical properties of materials. For instance, interchain hydrogen-bonding in PAs gives them superior strength and stiffness in engineering materials, while t ...

Polymer Translocation through Nanometer Pores

Maria-Alexandra Paun

In this paper the loaded polymer transport and its escape via a nanometer size aperture, virtually by nanomembrane, the polymer being moved by an exterior electrostatic field, has been studied. Assuming a linear dependency of the friction coefficient on th ...

Morphology and interfacial strength of nonisothermally fusion bonded hard and soft thermoplastics

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Rajasundar Chandran

Nonisothermally fusion bonded butt joints were prepared by overmolding thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) onto isotactic polypropylene (iPP) inserts in order to investigate the effect of processing conditions on the bond strength and interfacial microstructur ...

Process influences on the structure, piezoelectric, and gas-barrier properties of PVDF-TrFE copolymer

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Yves Leterrier, Dragan Damjanovic, Antonia Neels, Alex Dommann, Olha Sereda

The influence of annealing between the Curie transition and the melting point of solvent cast polyvinylidene fluoride trifluoroethylene copolymer films on the crystalline structure, mechanical and electrical properties, and oxygen permeability is investiga ...

Tuneable PTC effect in polymer-wax-carbon composite resistors

Thomas Maeder, Peter Ryser, Caroline Marguerite Jacq, Ludivine Ammon

Purpose: The resistivity dependence on temperature of composite resistors made of carbon fillers dispersed in an organic matrix are known to be strongly affected by the matrix thermal expansion. High positive temperature coefficient (PTC) effects, i.e. ess ...

Hybrid Glass Mat-reinforced Polypropylene-Montmorillonite Nanocomposites

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Véronique Michaud, John Christopher Plummer, Martyn Douglas Wakeman, Sara Dalle Vacche, Chrystèle Houphouet-Boigny Favre

Polypropylene/montmorillonite (iPP/MMT) has been investigated as an alternative to isotactic polypropylene (iPP) as a matrix for glass mat thermoplastic (GMT) composites. The melt viscosity increased significantly on MMT addition, but iPP/5.9wt% MMT-based ...

"Functional Poly(ethylene glycol)": PEG-Based Random Copolymers with 1,2-Diol Side Chains and Terminal Amino Functionality

Frederik Roman Wurm

A series of poly(ethylene glycol-co-isopropylidene glyceryl glycidyl ether) (P(EO-co-IGG)) random copolymers with different fractions of 1,2-isopropylidene glyceryl glycidyl ether (IGG) units was synthesized. After acidic hydrolysis a new type of "function ...

Structural Aspects of 1,3,5-Benzenetrisamides−A New Family of Nucleating Agents

Philip Pattison

Structural studies of substituted 1,3,5-benzenetrisamides, a new family of highly versatile and efficient nucleating and clarifying agents for polymeric materials, are reported. Subtle details of the molecular structure of these species are shown to have a ...
