Influence of hydrogen bonding on the viscoelastic properties of thermoreversible networks: analysis of the local complex dynamics
1995
Abstract The viscoelastic properties of thermoreversible polybutadiene networks in which junctions are formed by binary contacts between polar stickers (phenylurazole) are investigated by a dynamic mechanical spectroscopy within the frequency range 0.0079–79.5 Hz (0.05–500 rads−1). Time-temperature superposition is applicable in the terminal flow region and the glass transition regime, whereas thermorheologically complex behaviour is observed within the rubbery plateau region. For the terminal relaxation zone the polar stickers enhance the relaxation time and broaden the relaxation time spectrum. The thermorheologically complex behaviour within the rubbery plateau region results from the oc…
Junction Dynamics in Telechelic Hydrogen Bonded Polyisobutylene Networks
1996
4-Urazoylbenzoic acid groups are attached to the chain ends of polyisobutylene. The cooperative assembling process of these polar groups is studied by DSC and dielectric and dynamic mechanical spectroscopy. The melting of the ordered clusters occurs in the temperature range 380-390 K. Distortions within the U4A clusters (Σ process) are monitored below the melting temperature T m with dielectric spectroscopy. On a larger length scale, these distortions also lead to stress relaxation which can be probed by dynamic mechanical measurements. Near T m , the relaxation ofU4A multiplets (α* relaxation) is detected with dielectric spectroscopy. In this temperature range, dynamic mechanical measureme…
The molecular dynamics of thermoreversible networks as studied by broadband dielectric spectroscopy
1995
Polybutadienes modified by a small number of 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione form thermoreversible networks via hydrogen bonding between the polar stickers. The molecular dynamics of systems with different contents of polar stickers are investigated by broadband dielectric spectroscopy in the frequency regime of 10−1–109 Hz. Unmodified polybutadiene shows two relaxation processes, the α-relaxation which is correlated to the dynamic glass transition of the polybutadiene, and a β-relaxation corresponding to a local relaxation of polybutadiene segments. In the polar functionalized systems, besides these two relaxations, an additional relaxation process (called α*) is observed, which occurs…
