A novel method of direct aniline multi-interfacial polymerization on paper substrate is introduced in this paper. Cellulose base papers with and without PAE reinforced were discussed. The PANI-paper composites after more than 3 polymerizations had much lower surface resistivity. Their mechanical strength and thermal stability were analyzed by tensile test and GTA. FTIR results explained that there was strong interaction between NH groups in aniline monomers and OH groups in fibers. Conductive composites made with PAE treated paper had both good thermal stability and good mechanical strength with high conductivity.

Bicomponent composite fibers, due to their unique versatility, have attracted great attention in many fields, such as filtration, energy, and bioengineering. Herein, we efficiently fabricated polyvinylidene fluoride/polyimide (PVDF/PI) side-by-side bicomponent nanofibers based on electrospinning, which resulted in the synergism between PVDF and PI, and eventually obtained the effect of 1 + 1 > 2. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to characterize the morphology and chemical structure of nanofibers, indicating that a large number of side-by-side nanofibers were successfully prepared. Further, the thermal stability, mechanical strength, and filtration properties of PVDF/PI were carefully investigated. The results revealed that the bicomponent nanofibers possessed both good mechanical strength and remarkable thermal stability. Moreover, the mechanical properties of PVDF/ PI were strengthened by more than twice after the heat treatment (7.28 MPa at 25 °C, 15.49 MPa at 230 °C). Simultaneously, after the heat treatment at 230 °C for 30 min, the filtration efficiency of PVDF/PI membrane was maintained at about 95.45 ± 1.09%, and the pressure drop was relatively low. Therefore, the prepared PVDF/PI side-by-side bicomponent nanofibers have a favorable prospect of application in the field of medium- and high-temperature filtration, which further expands the application range of electrospun fiber membranes.

Polyimides were prepared by Diels-Alder (DA) reaction of furfuralacetone (FAC) resin [poly(4-furanyl-butan-2-one)] with various bismaleimides. The DA reaction was carried out in tetrahydrofuran (THF) as solvent as well as in bulk, followed by aromatization of the tetrahydrophthalimide intermediates in the presence of acetic anhydride. All the polyimides were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectral studies and thermogravimetry. The results show that polyimides based on FAC resin exhibit good thermal stability. Preliminary tests for glass reinforcement of the polyimides indicate that laminates with good mechanical strength can be prepared.

AbstractIn this paper, we report that the experimental procedures for the preparation of conductive color powders that were aggregated from color pigment and conductive materials. We first modified the pigment and make the particles surface to have charges (ex: positive) and modified another conductive materials like ITO、Au、Ag particles or conductive polymer to be opposite charges (ex: negative). Then these two kinds of charge particles will aggregate in appropriate processing by static electricity and form a powder. After annealing treatment, the conductive color powder with ITO particles reveals good thermal stability and lower surface resistivity.

ABSTRACTWe have succeeded in preparing a conductive polyaniline (PAn) with improved thermal stability from a chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline by using an oxidant and a novel protonic acid, m-xylylenedisulfonic acid (XDSA). The acid was synthesized from dibromoxylene and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR spectroscopies. The polymer which is doped with XDSA shows a high conductivity of 5 S/cm. The conductivity does not change with annealing at 125°C in air for over 1000 hours. This polymer exhibits good thermal stability, and this stability is attributed to XDSA dopant, which consists of a bi-functional sulfonic group bonded to a polymer chain. By immersing an anodized tantalum pellet into a reactive solution, PAn doped with XDSA film is formed on the dielectric surface. The tantalum capacitor using PAn doped with XDSA as a counter electrode shows the improved characteristics: high apparent capacitance (90%), and small series resistance (<200mΩ at 100kHz). The capacitor demonstrates an excellent thermal stability due to because of the exceptional heat-resistance of PAn doped with XDSA formed in the capacitor.

Organic fibres (Kevlar/ Arbocel / Acrylic) have good thermal stability, higher surface area and bulk density. The optimization of organic fibres percentage for thermal behaviour is considered using TGA. The temperature raise during brake application will be between 150-4000 C and this temperature zone is very critical to determine the fade characteristics during friction testing. Hence, three different friction composites are developed with the same formulation varying only the Kevlar, Arbocel and Acrylic fibres which are compensated by the inert filler namely the barites and are designated as NA01, NA02 and NA03 respectively. After the fabrication, the TGA test reveals that the composite NA03 has minimum weight loss. The friction coefficient test rig is then used to test the friction material as per SAE J661a standards. The results prove that the brake pad with minimum weight loss during TGA has higher friction stability. Thus, we can correlate the thermal stability with the stability of friction.

It is the objective of this study to investigate the effect of ECAP processing and heat treatment on the mechanical properties of the UFG 7075 alloy. Also the effect of post ECAP heat treatment is investigated. The alloy is processed by ECAP after annealing as well as solution treatment to produce an UFG structure. Furthermore mechanical properties and their variations during annealing and aging are investigated. The hardness of the pre-ECAP annealed and the pre-ECAP solutionised 7075 aluminum alloy has increased significantly compared with that of the CG sample. Also hardness of ECAPed specimen has not experienced significant changes in post-ECAP heat treatment and indicated that the alloy had approximately good thermal stability.
