The composite material filled with nano-sized BaTiO3 and Fe3O4 was designed and studied. The aluminium phosphate ceramics was used as a matrix. The XRD analysis demonstrates only the crystalline structure of the fillers used. The thermogravimetric analysis proves the thermal stability of the composites up to 950 K. The Maxwell–Wagner relaxation was observed in the dielectric spectra of the investigated composites. The dielectric spectroscopy proves the close contact between the nanoparticles with the different ferroic ordering. The phosphate-based composites have been proved to be a prospective candidate for the multiphase multiferroic materials design and development.

<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>

In this study, the effect of SBR concentration (10 Phr, 20 Phr & 30 Phr ) on the thermal behavior of EPDM/SBR blends was studied. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to check weight loss of samples as function of temperature by heating upto 600°C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was performed to determine quality and % crystallinity of the elastomer blends. It was seen that % crystallinity improved with an increase in the content of SBR in EPDM/SBR blends. TGA revealed that the thermal stability of EPDM/SBR blends has improved by 17% than neat EPDM. Carbon nano-coatings produced by sputtering have no beneficial influence on thermal behaviour of elastomers.

Abstract Nanostructured and nanocomposite layers NiCoCrAlY+ ZrO2-7%Y2O3, ZrO2-7% Y2O3+HfO2-9%Y2O3, HfO2-9%Y2O3 with thickness of ∽ 20 μm were formed by low pressure plasma spraying. The structure and composition of the layers have been studied using a scanning electron microscopy, X-ray microanalysis, and XRD analysis. Thermal stability of the coatings has been analyzed using synchronous thermal analysis at temperatures up to 1600 °C. The results of structure and composition analysis of ZrO2-7%Y2O3+HfO2-9%Y2O3 layer suggest the formation ofnanocomposite co-doped regions of the ZrO2-HfO2-Y2O3 solid solution. The layer has greater thermal stability at temperatures up to 1600 ° C and a smaller subgrain size (∽ 33 nm) than for the ZrO2-7% Y2O3 and HfO2-9%Y2O3 layers.

The terpolymerization of carbon dioxide (CO2), propylene oxide (PO), and cyclohexene oxide (CHO) were performed by both random polymerization and block polymerization to synthesize the random poly (propylene cyclohexene carbonate) (PPCHC), di-block polymers of poly (propylene carbonate–cyclohexyl carbonate) (PPC-PCHC), and tri-block polymers of poly (cyclohexyl carbonate–propylene carbonate–cyclohexyl carbonate) (PCHC-PPC-PCHC). The kinetics of the thermal degradation of the terpolymers was investigated by the multiple heating rate method (Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS) method), the single heating rate method (Coats-Redfern method), and the Isoconversional kinetic analysis method proposed by Vyazovkin with the data from thermogravimetric analysis under dynamic conditions. The values of ln k vs. T−1 for the thermal decomposition of four polymers demonstrate the thermal stability of PPC and PPC-PCHC are poorer than PPCHC and PCHC-PPC-PCHC. In addition, for PPCHC and PCHC-PPC-PCHC, there is an intersection between the two rate constant lines, which means that, for thermal stability of PPCHC, it is more stable than PCHC-PPC-PCHC at the temperature less than 309 °C and less stable when the decomposed temperature is more than 309 °C. Pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) and thermogravimetric analysis/infrared spectrometry (TG/FTIR) techniques were applied to investigate the thermal degradation behavior of the polymers. The results showed that unzipping was the main degradation mechanism of all polymers so the final pyrolysates were cyclic propylene carbonate and cyclic cyclohexene carbonate. For the block copolymers, the main chain scission reaction first occurs at PC-PC linkages initiating an unzipping reaction of PPC chain and then, at CHC–CHC linkages, initiating an unzipping reaction of the PCHC chain. That is why the T−5% of di-block and tri-block polymers were not much higher than that of PPC while two maximum decomposition temperatures were observed for both the block copolymer and the second one were much higher than that of PPC. For PPCHC, the random arranged bulky cyclohexane groups in the polymer chain can effectively suppress the backbiting process and retard the unzipping reaction. Thus, it exhibited much higher T−5% than that of PPC and block copolymers.

Plasticized–Poly(vinyl chloride) (P-PVC) for cables and insulation requires performances related to outdoor, indoor and submarine contexts and reduction of noxious release of HCl-containing fumes in case of thermal degradation or fire. Introducing suitable nanomaterials in polymer-based nanocomposites can be an answer to this clue. In this work, an industry-compliant cable-grade P-PVC formulation was added with nanostructured materials belonging to the family of Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS). The effects of the nanomaterials, alone and in synergy with HCl scavenging agents as zeolites and hydrotalcites, on the thermal stability and HCl evolution of P-PVC were deeply investigated by thermogravimetric analysis and reference ASTM methods. Moreover, hardness and mechanical properties were studied in order to highlight the effects of these additives in the perspective of final industrial uses. The data demonstrated relevant improvements in the thermal stability of the samples added with nanomaterials, already with concentrations of POSS down to 0.31 phr and interesting additive effects of POSS with zeolites and hydrotalcites for HCl release reduction without losing mechanical performances.

ABSTRACTNanocomposites of polystyrene loaded with various amounts of anatase (ranging between 0 % wt. and 20 % wt.) have been synthesized and investigated by thermal analysis. The research was focused on the simulation of Thermogravimetric Analysis data, aiming to a refined understanding of the interactions between of polystyrene and TiO2 nanoparticles. The dependence of the first derivative of residual mass on temperature has been used to determine more accurately the temperature at which the mass loss is maxim. Several functions have been used to simulate the dependence of the first derivative of mass loss on the temperature of the sample. The highest correlation coefficient was obtained for the asymmetric Gaussian combination, which connects two halves of a Gaussian line with different linewidth. An increase of the thermal stability of the polymeric matrix upon loading with TiO2 is reported.

Cr-Al-N coatings were deposited on the surface of the (111) single silicon for the aim to study the thermal stability of this kind of coating. The microstructure and composition of the coatings were identified by XRD and SEM/EDS, respectively. The changes of the microstructure of the coatings after being annealing in the hydrogen under 900-1100 °C were also studied by XRD analysis. The results showed that: the as-deposited coatings performed B1 microstructure with (111) preferred orientation; the microstructure of the Cr-Al-N coatings would transformed from CrN to Cr2N during the increasing of temperature and the transformation temperature increased with increasing aluminum content of the coating; AlN would also precipitate from the Cr-Al-N coating and the precipitation temperature decreased with increasing aluminum content of the coating.

Ti, SiC and their composite materials have been widely used as high temperature structural material. The knowledge of interfacial stability between SiC and Ti is vital in high temperature applications. In this study, SiC/Ti diffusion couples were prepared to investigate the interfacial reactions between SiC and Ti at 1273 K. Phase forming sequence, microstructure and thermal stability of SiC/Ti interface were studied. It was indicated that after annealed at 1273 K for 10 days, 4 reaction layers were formed at the SiC/Ti interface. The diffusion path between SiC and Ti is SiC/Ti3SiC2/Ti5Si3/Ti5Si3+TiC/Ti3Si/Ti. As the annealing time prolong, the thicknesses of these reaction layers increased.

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.
