Semi-crystalline polylactide (PLA)/polyolefin multi-component blends were used as precursors for the generation of a new class of micro-cellular polymers. Either a polypropylene-based elastomer (PBE) or polypropylene (PP) homopolymer were utilized as dispersed phases at the 10 wt% level. An epoxy-functionalized terpolymer (PEGMMA) was introduced (1 wt%) as a reactive compatibilizer to reduce the dispersed...
We demonstrated that the ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of 3-substituted cyclooctenes bearing polar substituents allows the synthesis of highly regio- and stereo-regular polymers. A series of polyalkenamers with 90–99 % head-to-tail/trans configuration were synthetized in good yields (33–87 % yield). Upon saturation of the backbone using diimide, these polymers represent a class of...
Thermotropic materials offer the potential to provide overheat protection for polymer absorbers. These materials are composed of a matrix material in which a second material, referred to as the scattering domain, is dispersed. Temperature control is accomplished by a reduction in transmittance at a desired temperature corresponding to the phase change temperature of the scattering domain. The phase...
