Influence of Trimethylsilyl Side Groups on the Molecular Mobility and Charge Transport in Highly Permeable Glassy Polynorbornenes

Yin, Huajie; Chapala, Pavel; Bermeshev, Maxim; Pauw, Brian R.; Schönhals, Andreas; Böhning, Martin

Superglassy polymers with a large fractional free volume have emerged as novel materials with a broad range of applications, especially in the field of membrane separations. Highly permeable addition-type substituted polynorbornenes with high thermal resistance and chemical stability are among the most promising materials. The major obstacle for extending the…

Insight into shear-induced modification for improving processability of polymers: Effect of shear rate on the evolution of entanglement state

Fu, Jiaxin; Wang, Yingxiong; Shen, Kaizhi; Fu, Qiang; Zhang, Jie

Many experimental results have revealed that the re-entanglement kinetics of disentangled polymers is much slower than that predicted by tube theory. This retarded recovery of fully entangled state is of practical significance that shear-induced modification may offer a way to improve processability for a polymer by reducing viscosity. This work…

Phase transitions of the rapid-compression-induced mesomorphic isotactic polypropylene under high-pressure annealing

Fu, Xiaobo; Jia, Wenxia; Li, Xiaoting; Wang, Yaming; Wang, Zhen; Liu, Chuntai; Shen, Changyu; Shao, Chunguang

The mesomorphic isotactic polypropylene was prepared by rapid compression instead of the common method of temperature quenching, and their phase transition under high pressure was investigated in depth by combining wide-angle X-ray diffraction, small-angle X-ray scattering, and differential scanning calorimetry techniques. It was found that annealing under pressure can promote…

Scalable preparation of alternating block copolymer particles with inverse bicontinuous mesophases

Lv, Fei; An, Zesheng; Wu, Peiyi

Block copolymer particles with controlled morphologies play a vital role in materials science and nanotechnology. Here the authors show a scalable preparation of amphiphilic alternating block polymer particles with inverse bicontinuous mesophases via polymerization-induced…

Using the singular value decomposition to extract 2D correlation functions from scattering patterns

Bender, Philipp; Zákutná, Dominika; Disch, Sabrina; Marcano, Lourdes; Venero, Diego Alba; Honecker, Dirk

We apply the truncated singular value decomposition (SVD) to extract the underlying 2D correlation functions from small-angle scattering patterns. We test the approach by transforming the simulated data of ellipsoidal particles and show that also in case of anisotropic patterns (i.e. aligned ellipsoids) the derived correlation functions correspond to the…

Piñón-Balderrama, Claudia; Leyva-Porras, César; Olayo-Valles, Roberto; Revilla-Vázquez, Javier; Schubert, Ulrich S.; Guerrero-Sanchez, Carlos; Bonilla-Cruz, José

Poly(methyl methacrylate- block -styrene) block copolymers (BCs) of low dispersity were selectively sulfonated on the styrenic segment. Several combinations of degree of polymerization and volume fraction of each block were investigated to access different self-assembled morphologies. Thin films of the sulfonated block copolymers were prepared by spin-coating and…

Polymeric scaffolds prepared from polycaprolactone (PCL), PCL-collagen and PCL-elastin were prepared by electrospinning. The scaffolds were coated by plasma polymerization of pyrrole doped with iodine, to improve cellular adhesion and fibroblast proliferation. The morphology, composition, and crystalline structure of the scaffolds were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM),…

Wang, Kai; Bohra, Hassan; Gonçalves, Rui A.; Bhatnagar, Harshangda; Wu, Yingjie; Wang, Xiaochen; Wang, Zheng; Wei, Xin; Lam, Yeng Ming; Wang, Mingfeng

We report a solution-processable π-conjugated molecular building block (denoted as PhDPP) consisting of a rigid and planar core of phenyl-flanked diketopyrrolopyrrole and “soft” branched alkoxy chains that endow the solubility in a variety of organic solvents. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding in PhDPP was revealed in nonpolar solvents above a threshold of…
