In this article,polyethersulfone and flourene-coating epoxy resin were utilized tomodify both the toughness and the mechanical properties of traditional epoxy resins. The cure kineticsand the thermal stabilityof the resultedblends were tested by differential scanning calorimetry technology and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. Additionally, the mechanical properties of resulted thermosets were discussed after tested by Dynamic Thermomechanical Analyzer.When compared to the traditional epoxides, the obtained blends exhibit much better heat resistance, thermal stability and mechanical properties.

A novel carborane-containing epoxy resin was prepared via the curing reaction between epoxy resin (E51) and 1,2-bis(4-aminophthalimide)dimethyl-1,2-dicarba-closododecaborane (4-AP CBR). According to the nonisothermal differential scanning calorimetry method and the T-β extrapolation method, the curing temperatures of the 4-AP CBR/E51 system were theoretically determined. The cured carboranyl epoxy resin was analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which revealed that the resin had excellent thermal stability and thermal oxidative stability. The results of TGA indicated that the initial decomposition temperature of the resin was exceeding 400°C and the char yield at 800°C was around 60% both under nitrogen and in air atmosphere.

<p>The thermal stability of pseudocyclic and cyclic <i>N</i>-heterocycle-stabilized (hydroxy)aryl- and mesityl(aryl)-l<sup>3</sup>-iodanes (NHIs) through thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is investigated. NHIs bearing <i>N</i>-heterocycles with a high N/C-ratio such as triazoles show among the lowest descomposition temperatures and the highest decomposition energies. A comparison of NHIs with known (pseudo)cyclic benziodoxolones is made and we further correlated their thermal stability with reactivity in a model oxygenation. </p>

The conversion of palm oil into a sulfur-based polymer by copolymerization with sulfur powder at its molten state is herein reported. The obtained sulfur-containing polymer was characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to demonstrate the successful conversion. The disappearance of the peaks related to vinylic groups of oil together with the appearance of a peak representing C-H rocking vibrations in the vicinity of C-S bonds confirmed the copolymerization of sulfur with oil. TGA revealed that the polymers have thermal stability up to 230°C under nitrogen and the polymers leave 10% sulfur-rich ash. DSC proved that a small amount of elemental sulfur remained unreacted in the polymer, which showed amorphous and heavily crosslinked structure resembling thermosets. These copolymers are an environmental-friendly polymeric material promoting the utilization of the abundant sulfur while also adding value to palm oil.

Pyrolysis of the polypropylene/montmorillonite (PP/OMMT) nanocomposites allows for recovery of the filler that can be then re–used to produce PP/pyrolyzed MMT (PMMT) nanostructured composites. In this work, we discuss the thermal properties of PP/PMMT composites investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). It has been found that effect of PMMT (5 wt. % and 10 wt. %) on matrix thermal stability occurs at temperatures above 300 °C. Addition of 5 wt. % and 10 wt. % of PMMT into polypropylene system gave good stabilization effect, as confirmed by the overall stabilization effect (OSE) values, which increased by 4% and 7%, respectively, compared to the control sample (PP). Interestingly, the presence of 1 wt. % and 3 wt. % of pyrolyzed clay stabilizes the system better than the same concentrations of organoclay added into polypropylene melt. DSC data revealed that pyrolyzed clay has still the same tendency as organoclay to enhance formation of the α and β crystalline PP phases only. The pyrolyzed MMT causes an improvement of the modulus in the glassy as well as rubbery regions, as confirmed by DMA results.

AbstractNon-isothermal dielectric analysis (DEA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques were used to study the epoxy nanocomposites prepared by reacting 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15-octa[dimethylsiloxypropylglycidylether] pentaciclo [9.5.1.13,9.15,15 .17,13] octasilsesquioxane (ODPG) with methylenedianiline (MDA). Loss factor (ε”) and activation energy were calculated by DEA. The relationships between the loss factor, the activation energy, the structure of the network, and the mechanical properties were investigated. Activation energies determined by DEA and DSC, heat of polymerization, fracture toughness and tensile modulus show the same profile for mechanical properties with respect to ODPG content.

The paper experimentally studies the effect of meta and para- substitution of the amino groups in the diamine used in the synthesis of multiblock copolymers. The way for synthesis of new multiblock copolymers with the possibility of replacing the diamine in the polymer structure was shown. Thermal and mechanical properties of synthesized copolymers had been characterized by means of differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and by nanoindentation and tensile test.

Copolymer of p-phenylenediamine and bispirocyclic pentaerythritol diphosphate was synthesized and characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR. This polymer was used to prepare epoxy resin/SPDA composites. Thermal stability of SPDA and epoxy/SPDA composites were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and their flammability were investigated by the LOI test. TGA results showed that the addition of SPDA improved the char residue of epoxy resin. SEM investigation showed that the residual chars have a honeycomb-like structure, indicating an intumescent flame retarding effect of SPDA in composites. In addition, all of above results confirmed that accelerate carbonization play a key role in improving flame retardancy of epoxy resin.
