Abstract Different generations of dendritic architecture with piperazine in core moiety and hydroxyl groups on the periphery were designed by divergent method. 1,4-biz(4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)piperazine was synthesized as a core for dendrimer synthesis. Dendrimer was then grown to G3 from core compound using diethanolamine and cyanuric chloride as branching units. Dendrimer generations were characterized by infrared (IR) spectroscopy [Fourier transform IR (FTIR)], 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C-NMR, electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and elemental analysis. The thermal behavior of both full- and half-generation dendrimers was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The TGA study revealed that dendrimer generations had a moderate thermal stability. Chlorine-terminated half-generation dendrimers were thermally more stable than hydroxyl-terminated full-generation dendrimers. The DSC technique was employed to determine the glass transition temperatures (Tg) of dendrimer generations. It was observed that the glass transition temperatures of synthesized dendrimer generations were of low value, which is similar to the values reported for the polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer of the same generation. It was also observed that, with the increase in the molecular weight or generation number of dendrimer, the glass transition temperature was also increased.

Abstract The glass transition temperatures for a series of high-1,4 linear and star-branched polyisoprenes have been measured by differential scanning calorimetry. The Fox-Flory relation for the linear polyisoprenes was found to be Tg=Tg∞−1.76×104Mn−1. The influence of hydroxyl groups on Tg was also examined for low molecular weight (<2.2×104) polyisoprenes.

Two bis (benzimidazoyl) monomers were synthesized, and Poly (N-arylenebenzimidazole ketone) s were prepared by N-C coupling reaction that replaced the NH sites from the bis (benzimidazolyl) derivatives with activated difluorides monomers in sulfolane at 210 °C. All the resulting polymers showed easy solubility compared with traditional polybenzimidazoles. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric measurements showed that the polymers had high glass transition temperatures (>240 °C), good thermostability and high decomposition temperatures (>460 °C).

Two new monomers were prepared by the reaction of 2-allylphenol and 4,4′-biphenyldicarbonyl chloride under different reaction conditions. The monomers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The curing processes of N, N-4,4′-bismaleimidodiphenylmethyene with 4,4′-bis(2-allylphenyl) biphenyldicarbonylate (BABC) and 4,4′-bis(2-propenylphenyl benzoate) ether (BPBE) were studied by rheological analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. Melting points of two monomers, BABC and BPBE, are 64°C and 121°C, respectively. The ABMI [4,4′-bis(2-allylphenyl)biphenyl bismaleimide] and PBMI [4,4′-bis(2-propenylphenyl)biphenyl bismaleimide] resins showed exothermic peaks at 233°C and 204°C, respectively. The measured melting points are significantly lower than that of the traditional bismaleimide resin which is modified by allyl bisphenol A. Dynamic mechanical analysis of the materials showed glass transition temperatures of ABMI and PBMI to be in the range of 213–258°C and 302–339°C, respectively. Thermogravimetric analysis of the cured resins showed 5% weight loss for ABMI and PMBI at 437°C and 428°C, along with char residues of 35.6–39.5%, respectively, at 800°C under nitrogen atmosphere. Furthermore, dielectric constants of propenyl-modified resins were lower (2.46–3.10) with dissipation factors of 0.0034–0.0036, compared with those of allyl bisphenol A resins.

The glass-transition temperatures (Tg) of thirty-one polyamide homopolymers and copolymers of widely differing molecular structure have been determined by differential scanning calorimetry or, as fibers, by dynamic tensile property measurements, and the results have been related to molecular structure. The effect of water on Tg has been determined, and it is shown that the extent to which saturation with water lowers Tg of a dry polyamide fiber depends only on the average spacing of amide groups in the monomeric unit. From the value of Tg for the water-saturated fiber, the dyebath temperature at which a sudden increase in color yield occurs can be predicted for one disperse-dye system. Finally a procedure is outlined that allows the calculation of each of the above quantities with a precision that averages about 7°C, from a knowledge of the structure of the polyamide monomeric unit.

ABSTRACTThermal behavior of a coextruded microlayer composite with 388 alternating layers of polycarbonate and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). Two distinct glass transition temperatures were observed with DSC for the coextruded composite, however both were shifted very slightly towards each other, compared to the glass transition temperatures of the pure components, indicating limited miscibility. Adhesion between the alternating microlayers appeared to be very good; delamination did not occur after the microlayer composite was subjected to a high speed impact test. Adhesion is attributed to limited miscibility since little mixing resulted from the laminar flow which was required in the coextrusion process. DMA results revealed an additional damping peak, which was not observed with DSC, at a temperature between the glass transitions of the two components. This intermediate transition peak is more sensitive to change in frequency compared to the response for the individual pure components.
