A high polymer yields of above 95% were achieved at 160 ℃ for 15 min utilizing ε-caprolactam magnesium bromide as a catalyst. Compared with its linear counterpart, the resultant star-branched polyamide 6 showed smaller relative viscosity (1.51 ), decreased melting temperature (218 ℃) and lower crystallinity (24.2%). The specific properties demonstrated the existence of a star-branched structure and provided potential advantages in engineering applications.展开更多

The influence of substrate on the electrical characteristics of polyamide-6/TiO2 composite nanofibers was investigated. The resultant nanofibers exhibit good incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles. The doping of TiO2 nanoparticles into the polyamide-6 nanofibers were confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Photoluminescence(PL) and cathodoluminescence(CL) spectroscopy were also used to characterize the samples.The PL and CL spectra reveal that the as-spun polyamide-6/TiO2 composite nanofibers consisted of overlapping of two broad emission bands due to the contribution of polyamide-6(centered at about 475 nm), which might originate from organic functional groups of polyamide-6 and TiO2 nanoparticles(centered around 550 nm). The electrical conductivity of the polyamide-6/TiO2 composite nanofibers on different substrates was carried out.It was found that the electrical conductivity of the polyamide-6/TiO2 composite nanofibers on silicon substrate was in the range of 13 μA, and about 1 to 20 p A for the paper and glass substrates.展开更多

A single glass-transition temperature (Tg) was determined, and the composition dependence of Tg for these blends was well described by the Kwei equation. The strong intermolecular interaction between the two polymer components was confirmed by melting-point depression. The isothermal-crystallization kinetics were analyzed on the basis of the Avrami approach. A linear increase in the radii of the spherulites with time was observed for all compositions. All the spherulites continued to grow at nearly identical growth rates. With increasing polyamide-6 content, the size of the spherulites in the polyketone/polyamide-6 blends gradually decreased, and the number of spherulites in the blends increased.展开更多

From the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, it is observed that with the increase of silicon dioxide (SiO2) content the structure of obtained membranes gradually varied from cellular structure to large ball-shaped cluster aggregates. Subsequently, with the addition of SiO2, pure water flux increased first and then decreased, while rejection showed the opposite trend. Besides, raising the coagulation bath temperature was favorable to increase pure water flux. Consequently, different membrane morphologies and performance were obtained by changing SiO2 content and coagulation bath temperature.展开更多

For this composition, the linear theological behavior of these systems is predicted using a tube-based theory. This allows us to show that while coupling agents of type A2 can be seen as flow improver, the effect of branching agents of type A3, depending on the synthesis recipe and the conversion level, can lead either to an increase or to a decrease of the viscosity. By adding specific amount of these agents, we also show that it is possible to obtain materials with the same zero-shear viscosity but with different shear thinning behavior. Furthermore, the polydispersity of linear samples of the same average number molecular weight, Mn, is discussed in function of the amount of A2 monomers they contain. Ranging from 2 to 1.5, this difference in polydispersity is expected to have a significant influence on the processing behavior of such materials.展开更多
