The PVC composite was prepared by extrusion melt using a new plasticizer octodecyl acyl tributyl citrate and PVC resin. Influence on mechanical and resistance to cold properties of PVC was studied by tensile and low temperature impact tests. The thermal behavior, texture and mechanism of plasticizing of OTBC plastifying PVC were supported by TG, DSC and SEM. The result indicated that the glass transition temperature of plastifying material was about 36°C, breaking strength was 25.3MPa, elongation at break was 250% and, plasicizing efficiency was 0.88, resistance to cold property better than plastifying material of DOP’s, domains between two phases of micro-texture were small and distributed homogeneously when OTBC content in PVC resin was 30%.

Citric acid (CA) was used as a grafted group onto polyurethane (PU) to form a CA-grafted PU series, with a control PU series containing free CA prepared for comparison. With an increase in the CA content, the enthalpy change during the melting increased for the PU and CPU series, and the glass transition temperature increased with the increase in CA content for the PU series but not for the CPU series. The tensile strengths of the PU series sharply increased with the CA content, whereas those of the CPU series did not. The PU series demonstrated better low-temperature flexibility and water permeability than the unmodified PU.

Latexes are dispersions of homopolymers and copolymers, usually in water. Uses of these latexes are many such as protective coatings and adhesives. In order to form a continuous film the polymer must have film forming properties such as a low glass transition temperature (Tg). Latexes are being designed such as one polymer in the core of the particle and a shell of another polymer or perhaps a series of shell layers. Microscopy has become a powerful tool in the examination of the morphology of the latex particles. Because of the use of low Tg polymers, sample preparation and examination by electron microscopy at temperatures above the Tg of the polymer causes the particles to become distorted and no longer representative of their true morphology. Low temperature methods therefore have become crucial in the field of latex microscopy.

Abstract A series of random polysulfone/polyethersulfone (PSF/PES) copolymers were synthesized by the polycondensation of 4,4′-isopropylidenediphenol, 4,4′-dihydroxyldiphenylsulfone, and 4,4′-dichlorodiphenylsulfone in the presence of potassium carbonate. The resulting copolymers displayed similar solubility with PSF and PES. The glass transition temperature and the 5% weight loss temperature of these copolymers varied in the range of 199°C–299°C and 467°C–498°C, respectively, which showed excellent thermal stability. Moreover, the elongation at break of these copolymers was much higher than that of PES, whereas the tensile strength was a little lower.
