Abstract This paper focuses on the comparative evaluation of the glass transition temperature (Tg), storage modulus and thermal conductivity of trans-polyisoprene (TPI) and CdS-TPI nanocomposite. The CdS nanoparticles synthesized by chemical route are dispersed into TPI using ultrasonic vibrations. Particle size of nanocrystals is obtained from X-ray diffraction and found to be 1.84 nm. Thermo-mechanical properties (Tg and storage modulus) are measured by dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA), while thermal conductivity is a measured using the transient plane source (TPS) technique. It is observed that glass transition temperature and thermal conductivity are higher while storage modulus and mechanical properties are lower for CdS-TPI nanocomposites than for pure TPI. This has been explained on the basis of structural changes occurring due to introduction of CdS as filler into the TPI.

Although a Ti47.4Zr5.3Ni5.3Cu42 glassy alloy does not occur precipitation of crystalline in annealing of prolonged time below glass transition temperature, it shows slightly embrittlement during passing through devitrification process. The embrittlment behavior may be connected to structural relaxation. Using ultrasonic, in this study, acoustic characteristics of the glassy alloy during progressive devitrification were examined in terms of structural relaxation. The structural changes are characterized by decreases in specific volume, bulk modulus, Lamè parameter and Poisson ratio, accompanied by structural relaxation.
