The effect of macromolecular architecture of ethylene copolymers with multi-alkenylsilsesquioxane on morphological, rheological and dynamic mechanica…
2021
Abstract The influence of the degree and the way of incorporation of multi-alkenylsilsesquioxane into the polymer chain on morphological, rheological and dynamic mechanical parameters were determined. It was found that POSS incorporated into the polymer chain was located outside the crystalline structure of lamella in amorphous phase. The incorporation of POSS-6-2 as a pendant group resulted in significant increase of separation of macromolecules. The key factor in rheological and dynamic mechanical behavior of copolymers turned out to be the way of POSS incorporation into the polymer chain. The incorporation of POSS into the polymer chain as a pendant group resulted in decreased relaxation…
Thermal behavior of ethylene copolymers with di- and tri-alkenylsilsesquioxane comonomers synthesized by post-metallocene catalysts
2020
AbstractThis paper reported thermal properties of ethylene copolymers with di- and tri-alkenylsilsesquioxanes (POSS) synthesized by bis(phenoxy-imine) Ti, Zr, V, and V salen-type complexes. Ethylene copolymers with multi-alkenyl POSS obtained by such complexes contain multi-alkenyl POSS incorporated into the polymer chain as a side group. They were characterized by different thermal behavior depending on the kind of multi-alkenyl POSS comonomer, and type of the catalyst used, as well as polymerization conditions and thus the structure of the copolymer chain. Ethylene/POSS copolymers differed in incorporation of POSS into the polymer chain, content of specific unsaturation groups, and molecu…

Light-induced trans-cis isomerization of terpyridine functionalized POSS nanostructures self-assembled in presence of Eu3+ ions
Investigation of thermal stability of ethylene copolymers with POSS - Study under static and dynamic conditions
2018
Abstract In the paper there was studied thermal stability of a series of ethylene copolymers with monoalkenylsiloxy- or monoalkenylsilsesquioxanes (POSS) under dynamic and static conditions. The copolymers proved to be more thermally stable than neat polyethylene and neat silsesquioxane comonomers. The kind and the content of the POSS units significantly affected degradation of the copolymers. Thermal oxidation process resulted in structural changes of the (co)polymers as it was evidenced by the variations in the kind and content of carbonyl, as well as by unsaturated end groups. Depending on the structure of the POSS comonomer incorporated into the polymer chain, the silsesquioxane units o…
Polimeryzacja koordynacyjna alkenylosilseskwioksanów i ich kopolimeryzacja z olefinami lub styrenem
2015
Artykuł stanowi kontynuację przeglądu literatury dotyczącej koordynacyjnej polimeryzacji silseskwioksanów (POSS), zawierających zdolne do polimeryzacji wiązanie podwójne, oraz ich kopolimeryzacji głównie zolefinami, a także ze styrenem. Zastosowanie katalizatorów metalocenowych aktywowanych metyloaluminoksanem (MAO) zapewnia efektywną (ko)polimeryzację silseskwioksanów zarówno z olefinami, jak i styrenem. Wprowadzenie do materiału polimerowego komonomeru POSS korzystnie wpływa na właściwości otrzymanych produktów, które cechują się większą odpornością termiczną oraz wytrzymałością mechaniczną niż ich odpowiedniki niezawierające POSS.
Accelerated laboratory weathering of polypropylene composites filled with synthetic silicon-based compounds
2019
Abstract Non-functionalized and n-alkyl functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS), siloxane-silsesquioxane resins and the sol-gel silicas were for the first time examined as possible UV-stabilizers and/or antioxidants in polypropylene (PP). The obtained composites were subjected to the accelerated laboratory weathering tests. The influence of the weathering conditions on the structure and properties of the PP materials was evaluated on the basis of the results from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies. It was found that weathering resistance of the PP materials was strongly de…

Study of thermal properties of polyethylene and polypropylene nanocomposites with long alkyl chain-substituted POSS fillers
2016
The effect of incorporation of octakis({alkyl}dimethylsiloxy)octasilsesquioxanes molecules with n-octyl, n-octadecyl and 4-methyl-hexyl substituents on thermal properties of polypropylene (PP), low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) was investigated. Thermal properties of those composite materials were evaluated by means of the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG) methods. The type and mass% content of POSS nanofillers influenced the crystallization and melting properties as well as thermal stability of the obtained polyolefin nanocomposites. The incorporated POSS particles—acting as nucleating agents—improved the crystall…
Efficient Conversion of Carbon Dioxide by Imidazolium-Based Cross-Linked Nanostructures Containing Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS) Buildi…
2019
Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) have been employed as molecular building blocks for the synthesis of imidazolium cross-linked networks, to be used as heterogeneous catalysts for the conversion of carbon dioxide into cyclic carbonates. Two hybrid materials with different nucleophilic species (bromide and iodide) have been prepared and characterized by means of elemental analysis, 13C and 29Si solid-state NMR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and IR spectroscopy. The solids were tested as the sole catalyst under metal- and solvent-free reaction conditions showing full selectivity toward the formation of cyclic carbonates. High turnover number (TON) and productivity values,…
