Sol or gel phase could be distinguished according to the concentrations of polymer and crosslinker. The boundary polymer concentration did not depend on the types of gelation and decreased with increasing polymer dimension (molecular weight and conformation). The gelation, which is basically interchain bonding, requires the occurrence of entanglement. The overlap concentration is thus considered as the minimum polymer concentration required for gelation.展开更多

It was found that only under vacuum evaporating conditions did the endothermic peak in the DSC curves of a-PS films depend on the concentration of the a-PS solution. For the samples cast from the solution of concentration below 0. 010 g/mL, no endothermal peak was observed, but for those cast from the solution of concentration above 0. 020 g/mL, obvious endothermal peaks appeared. The onset of the endothermal peak is correlated with the critical overlapping concentration c' (0. 010-0. 020 g/mL), which is in agreement with the theoretically calculated one (Ccal=0.014 g/mL).展开更多
