The influence of the concentration of finely dispersed aluminum and compatibilizer on the resistance to peeling of aluminum foil from the surface of a composite based on low density polyethylene and high density polyethylene is considered. To improve the compatibility of the filler with the polymer matrix, a compatibilizer was used, which is a graft copolymer of polyethylene of various grades with methacrylic acid and maleic anhydride. Copper and aluminum foil was used as a substrate. It is shown that the introduction of a compatibilizer into the composition of aluminum-filled composites improves their peeling resistance. It has been found that if an aluminum filled compatibilizer is used directly as an adhesive, then the peeling resistance of copper and aluminum foil is significantly increased. Graft copolymers of polyethylene with maleic anhydride have the highest peel resistance values. The results of the study of the influence of the pressing temperature on the type of adhesive failure are presented. It is shown that with an increase in the pressing temperature, a mixed type of adhesive destruction is observed. It has been experimentally proved that, in percentage terms, the cohesive type of fracture prevails in composites where graft copolymers are used as a polymer matrix. It was found that a 100 % cohesive type of fracture is observed in foil-clad composites pressed at a temperature of 190 °C, where a graft copolymer of polyethylene with methacrylic acid or maleic anhydride is used as an adhesive.

An adhesive based on EVA and LDPE is developed which can be used up to 60°C. It was modified by polyisocyanate fragments of a grafted and reticulate nature for structural and morphological changes of the polymer matrix and improvement of physical, mechanical and adhesive properties. For additional compatibilization of the components, LDPE modified with maleic anhydride (MA) was used. High adhesion properties of the obtained composites were confirmed.

ABSTRACTRandom copolymers of poly(methyl methacrylate-d8) (PMMA) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) were synthesized and blended with polyethylene oxide (PEO), and SANS was used to estimate the strength of interaction between the various polymer pairs. The addition of PMAA greatly reduced the scattering of the blend, giving a large negative Flory-Huggins interaction parameter. Copolymers of the type PMAA-g-PS, PMAA-r-PS, PMMA-g-PS, and PMMA-r-PS (g = graft, r = random) were used as compatibilizers for the melt blending of mixtures containing 80% PS and 20% PEO. Random copolymers containing half PMMA and half PS or half PMAA and half PS were ineffective compatibilizers while graft copolymers of these polymers produced a much finer dispersion of PEO in PS when blended at 190°C. Graft copolymers made with 90% PS were different, however, with PMMA grafts having only a small effect, while PMAA grafts having a large effect. Random and graft copolymers of PS and PMMA were also used to compatibilize blends of PS and PMMA. The results were similar to the same compatibilizers with blends of PS and PEO, with the graft copolymer causing a finer dispersion.

AbstractIn this study, 2-oxopropylmethacrylate-terminated poly(N-vinyl-2- pyrrolidone) is produced by cationic polymerization using HClO4 as an initiator. Termination (end capping) step is accomplished using 2- hydroxypropylmethacrylate (2HPMA) and the polymer product has different chain lengths of molecular weight averages ranging from 672 to 3049 g/mol. The study also synthesised amphipathic graft copolymers having hydrophobic poly(α- methylstyrene) as a backbone chain and hydrophilic poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) as side chains of various lengths. The copolymer synthesis was accomplished by free radical copolymerization of ω-oxopropylmethacrylate PVP in the presence of α-methyl styrene initiated with benzoyl peroxide. Measurements of the dynamic viscosity of the polymer solution (20% weight of macromonomers in ethanol) show that the viscosity is proportional to the average molecular weights M̅n . However, a reverse behaviour of the viscosity variation with regard to M̅n is observed for graft copolymer samples. The viscosity variation with respect to the graft copolymer mass must be due to steric effects, which are strongly pronounced in grafted copolymer chains. Appearance of the number of side chains attached to poly(α-methylstyrene) backbone reveals that the grafting reaction has occurred with good efficiency.

AbstractIncorporation of flame-retardant (FR) additives and nanoclay fillers into thermoplastic polymers effectively suppresses materials flammability and melt dripping behavior. However, it largely affects other properties, such as toughness and ductility. In order to recover the lost toughness and ductility of flame retardant polyamide 6, various loadings of maleic anhydride modified SEBS elastomer were added and processed by twin screw extrusion. TEM images showed exfoliated nanoclay platelets and reveals that the clay platelets well dispersed in the polymer matrix. By balancing the ratio of flame retardants, nanoclay and elastomers, formulation with elongation at break as high as 76% was achieved. Combining conventional intumescent FR and nanoclay, UL-94 V-0 rating and the LOI value as high as 32.2 were achieved. In conclusion, effective self-extinguishing and non-drip polyamide 6 nanocomposite formulations with significant improvement in toughness and ductility were achieved.
