TEM and FT-IR characterizations confirmed that TPA, OLLA and BDO copolymerized to obtain biodegradable copolyesters, poly(butylene terepbthalate-co-lactate) (PBTL), and the abundant hydroxyl groups on the surface of nano-SiO2 provided potential sites for in situ grafting with the simultaneous resulted PBTL. The nano-SiO2 particles were chemically wrapped with PBTL to form PBTL/nano- SiO2 hybrids. Due to the good dispersion and interfacial adhesion of nano-SiO2 particles with the copolyester matrix, the tensile strength and the Young's modulus increased from 5.4 and 5.6 MPa for neat PBTL to 16 and 390 MPa for PBTL/nano-SiO2 hybrids with 5 wt.% nano-SiO2, respectively. The mechanical properties of PBTL/nano-SiO2 hybrids were substantially improved.展开更多

TG results show that the incorporation of phosphorus containing unit linked pendant groups can destabilize the copolyester due to the cleavage of P-CH2 bond, and phosphorus containing units cannot promote the char-formation of the copolyester during the thermal degradation of the copolyester. XPS spectra indicate that with the increase of the temperature, the P-CH2 bonds of the copolyester break down gradually, the concentration of phosphorus in the condensed phase products decrease gradually and the chemical state of phosphorus does not change in the temperature of 250-380 ℃. Direct pyrolysis MS suggests that the P-CH2 bonds cleavage occurs at pendant groups and species containing phosphorus can volatilize into the gas phase. A flame retardant mechanism is proposed for the gas phase mode of action of the halogen-free copolyester phosphorus containing linked pendant groups.展开更多

It was found that most of the copolyesters were soluble in many common organic solvents. The copolyesters had low T-m/T-f values and a broad range of liquid crystal phase, making the polymers readily melt-processable. The effects of annealing at different temperatures on the copolyester containing 33% PHBA were also discussed. It was noted that annealing at ca. 200 degrees C (below Tc - n) could lead to the increasing of the crystallinity of the copolyester while the microstructure and sequence structure had not changed. Annealing at ca. 280 degrees C (near Tc - n) could bring a change of crystal and sequence structure and simultaneously made the microdomains be ordered more perfectly.展开更多

Although the compo-sition of 58/42 B-N copolyester had poorer thermodynamic crystallizability comparing with thoseof 30/70 and 75/25, its kinetic crystallizability Go was slightly larger. This fact was due to thepoorer match of sequences of 58/42 B-N in domains of nematic melt,and therefore better mobilityof chains during crystallization. The Avrami exponents of three composition species were allabout 2. 5, implying two dimensional growth in so-called non-periodic layer crystallites and a mixture of homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation.展开更多

The thermal properties of both-4he LCP and the blend were studied by DSC and the result showed that the various transition temperatures for the blend were rather close to those for pure PET. The thermal stability of LCP, blend and PET was characterized by TGA. The dynamic theological properties of LCP and thc blend were studied by the oscillation test on a rheometric mechanical spectrometer( Instron RM3250) with parallel plate disk.

The results based on DSC and X-ray diffraction indicated that there were a rapid and a slow crystallization processes for the copolyester at certain conditions. A critical temperature was suggested, below which the slow crystallization could hardly happen. Above the critical temperature the extent of the slow crystallization process depended not only on annealing temperature but also on the annealing time. A fine crystal structure with high melting point and narrow diffraction peak was formed under favorable conditions.展开更多

文摘Terephthalic acid,2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and 1,8-octanediol were adopted as monomers and antimony trioxide as catalyst,and poly(terephthalic acid-2,5-furandicarboxylic acid-1,8-octanediol) copolyesters identified as PEOT-x,where x is the mole fraction of furandicarboxylic acid in the samples,were synthesized by direct esterification.The molecular structure of the copolyesters was characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy.Gel permeation chromatography (GPC),differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to characterize the molecular weight,molar mass dispersity,glass transition temperature,and thermal stability of the copolyesters,respectively.The mechanical properties of the samples were also investigated.The number-average molecular weight (M_(n)) of the samples varies from 9 700-18 800 g/mol,and molar mass dispersity (■=M_(w)/M_(n)) from 2.15-3.34.The initial decomposition temperature of the copolyesters is in the 332-356 ℃ range,with maximum decomposition rates at 390-410 ℃,while the glass transition temperature (Tg) varies from 0-33 ℃.Mechanical test shows that PEOT-10 has the highest tensile strength,while PEOT-90 has the largest tensile modulus and elongation at break.The experimental results show that these copolyesters can be synthesized with relatively high molecular weights,good thermal stability,and fair mechanical properties,which makes them excellent replacements for commercial polyesters,such as PET,and these properties can be tuned through the relative amounts of biomass monomer 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid used in the reactions.

文摘For solid polymer electrolytes(SPEs),improving their mechanical and electrochemical properties is the key to obtaining batteries with higher safety and higher energy density.Herein,a novel synergistic strategy proposed is preparing a 3D flame-retardant skeleton(3DPA)and adding nano-multifunctional fillers(Li-ILs@ZIF-8).In addition to providing mechanical support for the polyethylene oxide(PEO)matrix,3DPA also has further contributed to the system’s flame retardancy and further improved the safety.Simultaneously,the electrochemical performance is fully guaranteed by rigid Li-ILs@ZIF-8,which provides fast migration channels forLi^(+),reduces the crystallinity of PEO and effectively inhibits lithium dendrites.The limiting oxygen index of the optimal sample(PL3Z/PA)is as high as 20.5%,and the ionic conductivity reaches 2.89×10^(-4) and 0.91×10^(-3) S cm^(-1) at 25 and 55°C,respectively.The assembled Li|PL3Z/PA|Li battery can be cycled stably for more than 1000 h at a current density of 0.1 m A cm^(-2) without short circuit being pierced by lithium dendrites.The specific capacity of the LFP|PL3Z/PA|Li battery was 160.5 m Ah g^(-1) under a current density of 0.5 C,and the capacity retention rate was 90.0%after 300 cycles.
文摘The properties and structures of thermotropical liquid crystalline copolyesters based on p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA), terephthalic acid (TPR) and bisphenol A (BPA) were studied by DSC, WAXD, hot stage polarized microscopy and NMR. It was found that most of the copolyesters were soluble in many common organic solvents. The copolyesters had low T-m/T-f values and a broad range of liquid crystal phase, making the polymers readily melt-processable. The effects of annealing at different temperatures on the copolyester containing 33% PHBA were also discussed. It was noted that annealing at ca. 200 degrees C (below Tc - n) could lead to the increasing of the crystallinity of the copolyester while the microstructure and sequence structure had not changed. Annealing at ca. 280 degrees C (near Tc - n) could bring a change of crystal and sequence structure and simultaneously made the microdomains be ordered more perfectly.

文摘The blend system composed of PET and thermotropic liquid crystal copolyester based on hydroxy benzoic acid, terephthalic acid, diacetylnaphthalene and PET was studied. The results indicated that LCP could play the role of crystal nuclei. The introduction of LCP decreased the melt viscosity of the system and fibrillous structure could be formed in favor conditions.
文摘The non-isothermal crystallization kinetics analysis of liquid crystalline random copolyestercomposed of p-oxybenzoate (B) and 2, 6-oxynaphthoate (N) monomers was carried out by meansof differential scanning calorimetry basing on Ziabicki and Jeziorny method. Although the compo-sition of 58/42 B-N copolyester had poorer thermodynamic crystallizability comparing with thoseof 30/70 and 75/25, its kinetic crystallizability Go was slightly larger. This fact was due to thepoorer match of sequences of 58/42 B-N in domains of nematic melt,and therefore better mobilityof chains during crystallization. The Avrami exponents of three composition species were allabout 2. 5, implying two dimensional growth in so-called non-periodic layer crystallites and a mixture of homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation.
文摘A thermotropic liquid crystalline copolyester (LCP) based on p-acetoxy-benzoic acid (49.9mol%), 2,7-diacetoxynaphthalene (22.3 mol%), terephthalic acid (22.3%) and Q-resin (polyethylene 2,6-naphthalene, 5.5%) was prepared via melt transesterification, and then a blend was prepared by physically mixing 40% therm0tropic liquid crystallline copolyester and 60% polyethlene terephthalate (PET). The thermal properties of both-4he LCP and the blend were studied by DSC and the result showed that the various transition temperatures for the blend were rather close to those for pure PET. The thermal stability of LCP, blend and PET was characterized by TGA. The dynamic theological properties of LCP and thc blend were studied by the oscillation test on a rheometric mechanical spectrometer( Instron RM3250) with parallel plate disk. The results showed that the theological behavious of the blend melt exhibit as conventional polymeric melt in the whole experimental frequency range (0.02—12 Hz). However, for the melt

文摘A thermotropic liquid crystal copolyester resin based on p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 2, 6-naphthoic acid, hydroxyquinone and PET was synthesized by melt condensation and studied. The results based on DSC and X-ray diffraction indicated that there were a rapid and a slow crystallization processes for the copolyester at certain conditions. A critical temperature was suggested, below which the slow crystallization could hardly happen. Above the critical temperature the extent of the slow crystallization process depended not only on annealing temperature but also on the annealing time. A fine crystal structure with high melting point and narrow diffraction peak was formed under favorable conditions.
文摘Nonisothermal crystallization behavior of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT) synthesized via direct esterification and polycondensation reactions was investigated by the differential scanning calorimetry(DSC).The Avrami equation modified by Jeziorny and the Z.S.Mo equation were employed to describe the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of copolyester samples.The test results showed that the Avrami equation was successful in describing nonisothermal crystallization process of PBAT copolyesters.PBAT copolyester could give birth to secondary crystallization.The crystallization parameter(Zc) increased with an increasing cooling rate and the Avrami exponent(n) was around 2.3.For a given cooling rate,the value of Zc demonstrated a sagging trend with an increase in adipic acid(AA) content.The equation proposed by Z.S.Mo was successful in describing the nonisothermal crystallization kinetics of PBAT copolyesters.
