Effects of backbone structure and MW on melt rheological behaviors were investigated by both small amplitude oscillatory shear and steady shear measurements. Master curves were constructed using the time-temperature superposition principle and compared. In the reduced frequency range covered, lg G″-lg(ω·aT) always show a slope of 1.0, suggesting a terminal zone behavior; in contrast, unexpected step changes or plateaus are observed on lg G′ master curves. Effects of backbone structure and MW on master curves were discussed. The Cox-Merz rule was tested at different temperatures and was found to be applicable when flow instability was absent.展开更多

The synthesized polyether was characterized by ^1H-NMR, ^13C-NMR, UV, FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction studies, measurements of solution viscosity, molecular weight and solubility and elemental and thermogravimetric analyses. The flame retardancy of the synthesized polyether and its blends with commercially available plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and low density polyethylene (LDPE) was investigated by measurements of limiting oxygen index (LOI) value and thermogravimetric analysis. The properties are compared with a non-halogenated similar type of bisphenol-A based aromatic polyether after blending at different dose levels with the same base polymers. The LOI values of these blends indicated that these hyperbranched polyethers acted as flame retardant additives, and antimony trioxide had prominent synergistic effect with the bromo hyperbranched polyether for the above base polymers, and an increment of 4 to 6 units in LOI values was observed.展开更多
