In this paper, the reversible crystal-crystal transition of poly(hexamethylene dithiocarbonate) (PHMDC) has been systematically studied. According to various experimental results, we confirm that the transition shares the common features with Brill transition that is widely observed in nylons. This transition is clearly associated with the reversible trans-gauche conformational transformation of the...
We have investigated phase behaviors of a series of polyphenylacetylene derivatives, poly[di(n-alkyl) ethynylterephthalates] (Pn, n is the number of carbon atoms of n-alkyl group, from 2 to 14), which are largely influenced by the length of n-alkyl tails on 2,5-position of the phenyl group. With short alkyl groups (n ≤ 6), Pns form columnar liquid crystalline (Col) phases due to the “jacketing effect”...
The fabrication of ordered structure is very important for the applications of ionic liquid crystalline polymers (ILCPs) or polymerized (ionic liquid crystal) (PILC). In this paper, we reported a facile approach to manipulate the ordered structure of ILCPs through adjusting the length of alkyl spacer. We designed and synthesized a series of ILCPs contained imidazolium, poly(2,5-bis{[m-(4-butoxy-4′-imidazolium...
We studied the lamellar orientation of polyamide 6 (PA6) thin films with the thickness ranged from ∼5 μm to ∼20 nm on different solid substrates. The lamellar morphology was observed using atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, and the lamellar orientation was characterized using two-dimensional (2D) grazing incidence wide-angle X-ray diffraction (GI-WAXD) and selected area...
Based on a modified expression of the rate of the convective constraint release, we present a new contour-variable model of constitutive equations in which the non-uniform segmental stretch and the non-Gaussian chain statistical treatment of the single chain are considered to describe the polymer chain dynamics and the rheological behavior of an entangled system composed of linear polymer chains....
We investigated the solution crystallization behavior of a high molecular weight (MW) poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) (PEO400k, MW of 4 × 10 5 g/mol) in ethanol with the concentrations ranged from dilute to semi-dilute (i.e., from 0.02 to 2 wt %). We followed the dissolving process of PEO400k using differential scanning colorimetry, small-angle X-ray scattering and solution light scattering. The...
