Three new catalysts based on the silica gel supported polyether ionic liquids(ILs), i.e., [HO-PECH-MIM]ClSi, [H2N-PECH-MIM]Cl-Si, and [HOOC-PECH-MIM]Cl-Si, were prepared, and their chemical structures were characteriz...Three new catalysts based on the silica gel supported polyether ionic liquids(ILs), i.e., [HO-PECH-MIM]ClSi, [H2N-PECH-MIM]Cl-Si, and [HOOC-PECH-MIM]Cl-Si, were prepared, and their chemical structures were characterized by infrared(IR) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) spectroscopy. Thermogravimetric analyzer(TG), X-ray diffractometer(XRD) and scanning electron microscope(SEM) were used to evaluate their thermal stability,crystalline structure and apparent morphology, respectively. Surface areas of the prepared catalysts were calculated by the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET) method. The catalytic reaction for the synthesis of propylene carbonate(PC) using CO_2 and propylene oxide(PO) in the presence of the prepared catalysts was studied. The influences of times of recycling and catalyst structure on catalytic performance were also investigated. The experimental results showed that the silica gel supported polyether ILs catalysts successfully prepared under mild condition could possess the advantages of high activity, excellent thermal stability, good selectivity and easy recycling, while the phase transition of the liquid polyether ILs catalysts was also achieved. When the reaction temperature was 90 °C, the CO_2 pressure was 2.0 MPa and the dosage of the catalyst was 2.5%, [HOOC-PECH-MIM]Cl-Si was found to have the best catalytic performance in the catalytic process, with the conversion rate reaching 100% and the selectivity equating to 98.2%. The conversion rate and selectivity still could reach more than 90% even after the catalyst was reused for 15 times.展开更多

PGC was applied to study the F t curve of the multiblock copolymer and PGC/MS was used to separate and identify the pyrolyzates. DTA experiment was used to study the decomposition temperature. The results show that the beginning point of elastomer’s decomposition was about 300?℃ and the decomposition temperature of most of the sample was 550?℃. Many pyrolyzates were produced because of the breaking of weak bonds in the sample. The possible microstructure was verified and the pyrolysis pathway of the copolymer was investigated.展开更多

In order to improve the toughness, the synthesized HBPEE was mixed with diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A （DGEBA） in different ratios to form hybrids and cured with triethylenetetramine （TETA）. Thermal and mechanical properties of the cured hybrids were evaluated. Results show that addition of HBPEE can improve the toughness of cured hybrids remarkably at 〈 20 wt% loading, without compromising the tensile strength. However, the glass transition temperature （Tg） of the cured hybrids decreases with increasing HBPEE content. Fracture surface images from scanning electron microscope show oriented fibrils in hybrids containing HBPEE. The formation and orientation of the fibrils can absorb energy under impact and lead to an improvement of toughness. Furthermore, based on the morphology of fractured surfaces and the single Tg in each hybrid, no sign of phase separation was found in the cured hybrid systems. As a result, the toughening mechanism could be explained by in situ homogeneous toughening mechanism rather than phase separation mechanism.展开更多

The covalent crosslinking structure was formed between —SO3H of SPEEK via SiO2. The SEM images show that the interfacial compatibility of SPEEK and SiO2 is improved obviously and SiO2 disperses uniformly in the polymer matrix and the particle diameter of SiO2 does not exceed 40 nm. The proton conductivity of composite membranes decreases slightly compared with the SPEEK membrane while the methanol permeability and swelling of composite membrane are improved remarkablely owing to covalent cross-linking between —SO3H and SiO2 .展开更多

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

Furthermore, several representative properties of the polyurethanes, such as moisture permeability, water resistance, hydrophilic property, and phase inversion temperature, were investigated. The studies show that the structure and concentration of soft segment have a remarkable effect on the main application properties of polyurethane. On the contrary, the functional properties of the polyurethane are almost not affected by its hard segment.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

The progress of the reaction and the structural changes during modification process were studied using FTIR spectroscopy. The studies support the proposition that TDI （tolylene diisocyanate） acts as a coupling agent between the epoxy and polyethers, forming a urethane linkage with the former and the latter, respectively. Me THPA-cured ER/ITPs blends were characterized using dynamic mechanical analysis （DMA） and thermogravimetric analysis （TGA）. It is indicated the glass transition temperature （T） of systems was lower than the T of pure epoxy resin and overfull ITPE separated from the modified epoxy resin and formed another phase at an ITPE-content of more than 10wt%. The thermal stability was decreased by the introduction of ITPE. The impact strength and the flexural strength of the cured modifiedepoxy increased with increasing the ITPE content and a maximum plateau value of about 24.03 kJ/m^2 and 130.56 MPa was measured in 10wt% ITPE. From scanning electron microscopy （SEM） studies of the fractrue surfaces of ER/ITPE systems, the nature of the micromechanisms responsible for the increases in toughness of the systems was identified.展开更多

文摘A series of segmented polyether-polyester polyurethane with amorphous hydrophilic soft segment domains were prepared from 4,4'- diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), polybutylene adipate (Glycol) 2000 (PBA2000), and polyethylene glycol 1000 (PEG1000), with 1,4-butanediol (BDO) as the chain extender. Furthermore, several representative properties of the polyurethanes, such as moisture permeability, water resistance, hydrophilic property, and phase inversion temperature, were investigated. The studies show that the structure and concentration of soft segment have a remarkable effect on the main application properties of polyurethane. On the contrary, the functional properties of the polyurethane are almost not affected by its hard segment.

文摘A brominated hyperbranched polyether has been synthesized from cyanuric chloride and sodium salt of tetrabromobisphenol-A by an A2 ＋ B3 approach. 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.

文摘The toughening of the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A epoxy resin with isocyanateterminated polyethers （ITPE） was investigated. The progress of the reaction and the structural changes during modification process were studied using FTIR spectroscopy. The studies support the proposition that TDI （tolylene diisocyanate） acts as a coupling agent between the epoxy and polyethers, forming a urethane linkage with the former and the latter, respectively. Me THPA-cured ER/ITPs blends were characterized using dynamic mechanical analysis （DMA） and thermogravimetric analysis （TGA）. It is indicated the glass transition temperature （T） of systems was lower than the T of pure epoxy resin and overfull ITPE separated from the modified epoxy resin and formed another phase at an ITPE-content of more than 10wt%. The thermal stability was decreased by the introduction of ITPE. The impact strength and the flexural strength of the cured modifiedepoxy increased with increasing the ITPE content and a maximum plateau value of about 24.03 kJ/m^2 and 130.56 MPa was measured in 10wt% ITPE. From scanning electron microscopy （SEM） studies of the fractrue surfaces of ER/ITPE systems, the nature of the micromechanisms responsible for the increases in toughness of the systems was identified.

文摘The Br?nsted-acidic polyether ionic liquids(ILs)with different polymerization degrees(n value)were prepared via the reaction of tetramethylguanidine and epoxy ethane,followed by successive reactions with 1,3-propane sultone and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid(TfOH).The prepared ILs were characterized by infrared spectroscopy and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy,and their thermal stability was determined by thermal gravimetry.The synthesized polyether ILs coupled with TfOH were used to catalyze the alkylation reaction of isobutane and isobutene for the preparation of alkylate gasoline.The polyether ILs could improve the substrate dissolution and promote the separation of the catalyst from the products.The ideal IL(n=94)was determined.The optimized alkylation reaction conditions covered:a VTfOH/VIL ratio of 0.35,a reaction temperature of 40℃,a reaction time of 50 min,and a stirring speed of 800 r/min.The conversion of isobutene was 92.4%and the selectivity for the C8-product was 81.6%.Under optimal conditions,the catalyst life was determined and TfOH showed improved cyclic performance in the polyether ILs.After 8 operating cycles,the catalytic activity of the catalyst showed negligible decline.
文摘The synthesis of eight new arsamacrocyclic Polyethers was described. The structures of these compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, H-1-NMR and MS.

文摘Polyether-polyurethane zwitterionomers based on 4, 4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate(MDI), methyl diethanolamine (MDEA), and polytetramethylene oxide glycol (PTMO) werestudied with variable-temperature wide-line ~1H NMR. It is found that upon ionization, degree ofphase separation in the polymer system decreased at first due to the loss of hard segmentregularity, while further ionization increased the degree of phase separation through increasinghard phase cohesion and difference of polarity between hard and soft segments.
