AbstractThe effect of surface modified fillers based on montmorillonite on rheological and mechanical properties and thermal stability of high-molar mass polydimethylsiloxane matrix was evaluated. Silicone rubber/clay composites were prepared via homogenisation on open two roll-mill followed by torque measurement at two different temperatures. At 30 °C and 100 °C the torque did not extremely differ excepting the mixtures containing Cloisite 15A where it achieved the maximum at 3 phr montmorillonite content, but the tensile strength reached the similar values in all mixtures. Thermogravimetric analysis was utilized to find out the differences in weight decay of composites in silicone rubber/montmorillonite mixtures and in unfilled silicone rubber. Synergism of fillers was also studied and led to tensile strength increase.

Direct, efficient, organic solvent- and catalyst-free synthesis of a series of polyphosphates was accomplished. The reaction involved a gas-liquid interfacial polycondensation between arylphosphoric dichlorides and bisphenol A. The polyphosphates were characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 31P NMR, inherent viscosity, thermal analysis, and molar mass. Yields in the range 70-90 % and inherent viscosities in the range 0.30-0.40 dl/g were obtained. The thermal stability of the polyphosphates was investigated by using thermogravimetry.

Thermally stimulated current (TSC) measurement was employed to study the thermal stability of electro-optic (EO) polymers, i.e., guest/host polymer DR1/PMMA and side-chain polymer PMMA-co-DR1. Here the isothermal relaxation test showed that the relaxation time τ (85 °C) of side-chain polymer PMMA-co-DR1 is longer than that of guest/host polymer DR1/PMMA. TSC peaks appeared symmetrically in proportion to the poling electric field Ep, indicating that DR1 molecules make a dominant contribution to dipolar depolarization. Thermal sampling (TS) method showed that the activation energy of the DR1/PMMA is around 1 eV, while that of the PMMA-co-DR1 is distributed > 1 eV. Results suggested that side-chain polymer is preferable to the guest/host polymer in the thermal stability. TSC measurement is helpful as a conventional method for studying the life time of EO polymers in terms of dipolar motion.
