Homogeneous samples were obtained by coprccipitation from 2 wt%. solution of blends. The thermal properties, crystallinity and morphology of these blends were studied by using DSC, polarizing microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The phase transition and morphology of the blends are markedly-influenced by the composition of liquid crystalline polyesters. The mechanical behaviour of PHB/HNA-Nylon 66 blend was improved. although polyamidc (Nylon 66)with the liquid crystalline polyesters were incompatible, but a rather strong interaction between the polymers did exist.展开更多

The polyester structures were confirmed by proton NMR and IRspectra. Their phase transition behavior and texture were studied by polarizing microscopy andDSC.展开更多

The new polyester was amorphous which had glass transition at 274 degrees C. Above Tg, the sample exhibited typical nematic texture. It showed high thermal stability (Td=487 degrees C).展开更多

Material properties and aging mechanisms were studied and explored by various characterizations including 1HNMR, FTIR, XRD, mass spectrum, and TGA. The TiO2/PBS nanocomposite was found to be more thermally stable and mechanically robust than the PBS. During aging, crystal formation and the final crystal structure changed notably. Based on the characterization results, it is proposed that the polymer chains have cleaved at the ester linkage by the dissociation of O–H groups and the conversion of C=O to C–O bonds. It was also believed that polymer chain transfer took place, which resulted in the formation of C=C bonds and O–H groups, and the polyester changed to enol or polyether.展开更多
