Microphase-separated semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (semi-n Ns) were obtained by curing 4,4'-bismaleimidodiphenylmethane (BMII), which was advanced in situ with diamine-terminated oligo(phenylene sulfide) (PPS-DA), in the presence of a non-crosslinked linear high-T, aromatic polyether. Poly(thioether amide imide) (PTEAI) containing two phenylene sulfide units, Ultems 1000 poly(ether imide) (PEI) and benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid anhydride/diaminophenylindane polyimnide XU 218$ (PI) were used as non-crosslinked modifiers for the sulfur-containing BMI/PPS-DA resin system, which formed the continuous polymer matrix. Morphological and mechanical properties of the polyether-modified BMI/PPS-DA resin systems were investigated as a function of semi-n?,-compositions and polymer compatibilities. The soluble high-TA P1 gave improved strength and toughness without sacrificing the high T, of the resulting multiphase semi-iPNS.

Interpenetrating networks of poly(acrylic acid) and polyacrylamide were used for the first time as templates for in situ calcium phosphate (CP) deposition in an attempt to mimic the naturally occurring biomineralization.

Three series of semi-interpenetrating polymer networks based on cross-linked poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), PNIPA, and 1, 2 and 3 wt% of linear poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone), PVP, were synthesized in order to improve the mechanical properties of PNIPA gels. The effect of the incorporation of the linear PVP polymer into the temperature responsive networks on the phase transition temperature, swelling behavior and mechanical properties was studied. Polymer networks with four different crosslinking densities were prepared with various molar ratios (25/1 to 100/1) of the monomer (N-isopropylacrylamide) to the cross linker (N,N'-methylene-bisacrylamide). The hydrogels were characterized by determination of the equilibrium degree of swelling at 25 ?C, the dynamic shear modulus and the effective crosslinking density, as well as the ultimate hydrogel properties, such as the tensile strength and elongation at break. Furthermore, the deswelling kinetics of the hydrogels was also studied by measuring their water retention capacity. The inclusion of the linear hydrophilic PVP in the PNIPA networks increased the equilibrium degree of swelling, the highest values of which were obtained for samples with 2 and 3 wt% of PVP and the NIPA/MBA molar ratio of 75/1 and 100/1. The highest reinforcement effect, evaluated from the ratio of G'red(semi-IPN) to G'red(PNIPA), was obtained by incorporation of 2 wt% PVP. The tensile strength of the semi-IPNs reinforced with linear PVP was higher than that of the PNIPA networks. The elongation at break of these semi-IPNs varied between 22 and 55%, which are 22^11% larger than those for single PNIPA networks. The tensile measurements confirmed that the presence of 2 wt% of the linear polymer significantly reinforced the PNIPA network.

A novel exfoliated polyurethane (PU)/clay Interpenetrating Polymer Networks (IPNs) nanocomposite has been synthesized with polyurethane and organoclay. MTPAC is used as swelling agent to treat Na-montmorillonite for forming organoclay. The results indicate that there is very good compatibility between organoclay and PU. Nanoscale silicate dispersion was analyzed by XRD. The mechanical properties of the nanocomposites have been measured by tensile testing machine. The nanocomposites show obviously improved physical and mechanical properties when compared with the pure polymer. Additionally, PU /MTPAC- clay shows lower water absorption properties than pure PU do. In addition, the reinforcing and intercalating mechanism of silicate layers in polyurethane matrix are discussed.

The Semi-Interpenetrating Polymer Networks(Semi-IPNs) of poly(methyl methyacrylate/ethyl acrylate)(P(MMA/EA)) and polyurethane thermoplastic elastomer (PU) were synthesized by PU and copolymer of methyl methacrylate and ethyl acrylate to improve the compatibility of polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA) and PU Semi-IPNs . The structure and properties were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, Solid nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and Mechanical properties. The tensile stress of (P(MMA/EA)/PU)( P(MMA/EA):PU=3:7) can get to 9.6MPa, the additional physical crosslinks and entanglement for Semi-IPNs are the reasons.
