The solubility parameter values obtained are in good agreement with the reference data and the little difference(|Δδ|< 2.0 MPa0.5) between two components indicates that PVC/DOP is a miscible system. Tg is predicted by the slope of the free volume and density versus temperature simulation data based on density and free volume theory which is agree well with the experimental data. In addition, the analyses of mechanical properties results indicate that the values of Young’s modulus(E), bulk modulus(K), and shear modulus(G) decrease with the addition of DOP, demonstrating that the rigidity of material is weakened and the ductility is improved. The mechanical properties can also be effectively improved by increasing the temperature, which may provide a more flexible mixture, with lower E, K, G but an increased ductility.展开更多

Its tensile strength increases from 36 1 to 52 9 MPa, while its flexibility is increased significantly by adding active silanol extracted from water glass. Both ultraviolet and microwave crosslinking result in samples with satisfactory mechanical properties, and the flexibility of the microwave crosslinked samples is much higher than that of the ultraviolet crosslinked ones.展开更多
