The composites' structures andmechanical properties were characterized by transmission electron microscopy(TEM), sanning electronic microscopy(SEM) and electronic universal testing machine. The results. show that nano-SiO2 grafted by hyperbranched poly (amine-ester) increases obviously in dispersion in PVC matrix, and mechanical properties of PVC are effectively improved. Moreover, it was found that mechanical properties of PVC/nano-SiO2 composites reach the best when weight percent of nano-SiO2 in PVC matrix is 1%. Compared with crude PVC, the tensile strength of hyperbranched poly (amine-ester) grafted nano-SiO2/ PVC composite increases by 24.68 % and its break elongation, flexural strength and impact strength increase by 15.73%, 4.07% and 1 841.84%, respectively.

The prepared polymer was analyzed by IR, GPC, 1H-NMR and thermal analysis (TGA and DSC). The performance of the polymer in cement was tested by measuring the effect of 1, 3 and 5 wt% of HBPAE solutions on the properties of Ordinary Portland Cement. Water of consistency, setting times, bulk density, apparent porosity, compressive strength and combined water content of the polymer/cement pastes were studied. The results showed that water of consistency and apparent porosity decreased while setting times, compressive strength, combined water and bulk density increased with the polymer addition.展开更多

The obtained polymers were characterized by FTIR(fouier transform-infrared spectroscopy), 1H NMR(nuclear magnetic resonance), 13C NMR, 19F NMR, GPC(gel permeation chromatography), TGA(thermogravimetric analyzer), and XPS(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) analyses. Highly hydrophobic and oleophobic cotton fabrics could be achieved from these fluorinated hyperbranched polymers by solution-immersion coating method. The static contact angles reached to 143°, 114°, and 92° for water, hexadecane, and decane, respectively. The water and oil repellency ratings were 90 and 6, respectively, and still kept 80 and 5, respectively, after 10 soaping cycles at 50℃.展开更多

Innovative polymer-based fluorescent materials with multiple mode emission are quite desirable to achieve multistage data security. Herein, a series of soluble and thermally stable hyperbranched poly(formyl-1,2,3-triazole)s(hb-PFTAs) with high molecular weights were facilely prepared by catalyst-free polycycloaddition of aldehyde-activated internal triyne and diazides. Functional moieties of triphenylamine and binaphthyl could be incorporated into the polymers to offer them with unique fluorescence and circular dichroism properties, respectively.By taking advantage of activated ethynyl and aldehyde groups on their peripheries and in the internal branch chains, the hbPFTAs can undergo efficient single-and double-stage post-functionalization. More importantly, based on the remarkable fluorescence responses to hydrazine and hydrochloric acid, the hyperbranched polymers are featured with triple-mode fluorescent patterns and have been applied in quadruple-modal information encryption and storage with enhanced security and density. Collectively, this work not only enriches the structural diversity of the existing triazole-based material library, but also provides new polymeric materials for data and information security application.展开更多

Indeed, dendritic architecture allowed for maximum dispersion of the chromophores, avoided aggregation, more optical limiting property was obtained. Simultaneously, they retained the excellent properties of the materials, particularly in thermal stability. Their optical properties were evaluated by nonlinear optical analyses and optical limiting. The results showed that these polymers possessed good optical limiting (OL) property and large nonlinear optical (NLO) susceptibilities (ca. 10-12 esu). All polymers containing chromophores presented excellent thermal stability (DT5 〉 524.17 ℃).展开更多
