Side-chain maleimide based electro-optic polymer for second-order nonlinear optics

The electro-optic properties of a poled second-order nonlinear optical maleimide polymer system were reported.This polymer was synthesized by doping disperse red 1 moieties into the maleimide system as the side chains.Its glass transition temperature was measured to be 202 ℃ by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) technology.After being poled,the measured electro-optic coefficient of PHSD at the wavelength of 1 550 nm is as large as 3.03 pm/v.Except for an initial decay after being poled,PHSD exhibits little electro-optic relaxation in a long term and its electro-optic coefficient remains about 2.46 pm/v after 15 days.

Preparation of Phase Change Microcapsule and Its Plication in Textiles

Phase change microcapsules(PCMs)are prepared with n-hexadecane and n-octadecane as core material,and melamine-formaldehyde resin is used as shell material by in-situ polymerization.Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)was used to analyze the phase change properties.Thermal conductivity and maximum heat flux of cotton fabric finished with PCMs before and after being washed were also measured.It has been found that melting and crystal enthalpy of the PCMs decrease with decreasing the core/shell ratio,while qmax of fabric treated with PCMs decreases and the thermal conductivity increases.Study shows that fabric finished by the PCMs has good temperature conditioning function.

Solid–liquid equilibrium of dimethyl terephthalate(DMT), dimethyl isophthalate(DMI) and dimethyl phthalate(DMP) in melt crystallization process

The binary solid-liquid equilibrium of Dimethyl Terephthalate （DMT）, Dimethyl lsophthalate （DMI） and Dimeth- yl Phthalate （DMP） was investigated by experiment and differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）. The result demonstrated DMT/DMI and DMT/DMP systems are eutectic while DMI/DMP is a solid-solution system. The eutectic temperature of DMT/DMI system is 336.7 K and that of DMT/DMP is 271.1 K. Furthermore, a classical solid-liquid phase equilibrium model was used to fit the experimental data of the eutectic systems of DMT/DMI and DMT/ DMP and the theoretical model could describe the eutectic solid-liquid phase diagrams properly.

DSC study on the undercooling of droplet solidification of metal melt

In this paper, the influence of cooling rate on the undercooling of droplet solidification of metal melt has been investigated by employing the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. The effect of cooling rate on the undercooling as well as its change tendency is analyzed theo- retically. It is shown that the undercooling degree increases whereas the change rate of undercooling decreases with in- creasing cooling rate. Moreover, the change tendency ap- proaches zero when the cooling rate exceedingly increased, indicating that an extremum of undercooling exists with in- creasing cooling rate.
