The thermo-oxidative stability of commercially available polymer optical fibers (POFs) and their components (cores and claddings) was investigated. All the bare POFs (core and cladding only) studied here were based on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) core. The fibers were exposed to 100 °C/low humidity for about 4200 h. Chemiluminescence (CL) technique was applied to investigate the thermo-oxidative stability and for measuring the transmission loss during exposure a prototype device called multiplexer was used. POFs exhibited variation in thermo-oxidative stability although they possessed identical core material PMMA. This was due to difference in the chemical compositions of claddings. Claddings were more susceptible to the thermo-oxidative degradation compared to cores. The thermo-oxidative degradation of both the cladding and the core was found in POFs as a result of climatic exposure. POFs showed an early drop-off followed by a slow decline of transmission. The early drop-off of transmission was attributed to physical changes like thermal expansion and the slow decline of transmission to chemical changes like oxidative degradation of POFs. A good linear relationship between optical transmission stability and thermo-oxidative stability of POFs was established from these studies.
The optical transmission stability was investigated for commercially available polymer optical fibers (POFs) which were exposed to a climate of 92°C and 95% relative humidity for about 3300 h. The optical transmission stability of POFs was correlated to their thermooxidative stability. POFs possessed identical core material, poly(methyl methacrylate), but they differed in the materials used for the claddings. The optical transmission was measured online using a prototype device called multiplexer. The chemiluminescence (CL) technique was applied to characterize the thermooxidative stability and degradation of POFs. CL analysis reveals the thermooxidative degradation of bare POFs (core and cladding), predominantly of the claddings, as a result of climatic exposure. Ultraviolet-visible transmittance measurements demonstrated more changes in the claddings as compared to the cores due to degradation. The CL and optical measurements data indicated that the optical transmission stability of POFs was dependent mainly on the thermooxidative stability of the claddings and their chemical compositions.
Recycled plastic granules of high-density polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride and polystyrene the size of microplastics were exposed to artificial aging conditions (2000 h; photooxidative and thermo-oxidative) to simulate their fate outdoors. Their potential to leach into water during the aging process was investigated using column percolation tests.
Aging-related changes on the surface of the material were characterised by IR measurements indicating oxidation reactions with the formation of new adsorption bands (C=O, C–O and OH), especially in the case of photooxidative aging.
These findings were confirmed by the identification of leachable organic compounds. Leaching of total organic carbon, Cl, Ca, Cu and Zn is clearly affected by changes due to aging, and their release is increased after photooxidative aging.
In general, exposure to photooxidative conditions shows a greater influence on aging and thus on leaching and seems to be the more important mechanism for the aging of microplastic in the environment. Comparison with the total content of inorganic species revealed that, for most elements, less than 3% of the total content is released after 2000 h of photooxidative aging.
To avoid a catastrophic failure of insulation in high-voltage (HV) applications, a monitoring of partial discharges (PDs) is necessary. Fluorescently labelled polymer optical fibers (F-POF) offer an electrically passive method for PD detection in HV facilities. F-POFs could be embedded in HV cable accessories, which are usually made of silicone rubber. Herein they detect the light emitted by the PD and convert it into an electrical signal that can be monitored. Due to the difficult accessibility of HV cable accessories, a self-healing silicone rubber with prolonged service life after PD detection represents an attractive material design for HV accessories. With this contribution, we would like to present and discuss the possibilities of combining self-healing materials with POF-based sensors for PD detection in HV applications.
Durch das Füllen von Polymeren mit Nanopartikeln oder Nanoröhren werden verbesserte Materialeigenschaften z.B. bezüglich mechanischer Stabilität, Witterungsbeständigkeit, elektrischer Leitfähigkeit und Flammschutz angestrebt. Mit dem vermehrten Einsatz derartiger Nanokomposite gewinnen aber auch Fragen des Umwelt- und Gesundheitsschutzes an Bedeutung. Es gilt zu klären, ob durch Herstellung, Benutzung und Witterungsbeanspruchung möglichweise nanoskalige Partikel freigesetzt werden können. Zu diesem Zweck wurden mit Kohlenstoffnanoröhren, Carbon Nanotubes (CNT), gefüllte Polymerkomposite spektral breitbandig wie auch quasimonochromatisch unter variierter klimatischer Beanspruchung bestrahlt. Die sich vor allem an der Oberfläche mit der Alterung abzeichnenden Veränderungen wurden mikroskopisch und spektroskopisch charakterisiert.
Degradation effects of automotive coatings after weathering as detected by thermoluminescence
(2004)
The influence of weathering on the fire retardancy of polymers is investigated by means of a cone calorimeter test, before and after artificial weathering. The surface degradation was monitored using different techniques (ATR–FTIR, microscopy, colour measurement). Different kinds of polymeric materials were chosen, all as they are used in practice: polycarbonate (PC) blends, polyamide (PA) and polypropylene (PP) flame-retarded with arylphosphate, melamine cyanurate (MC) and intumescent formulation based on ammonium polyphosphate (APP), respectively.
All samples show material degradation at the surface due to weathering. No significant weathering influence occurs on the flame retardancy when it is a bulk property, as was observed for aryl phosphates in PC blends and MC in PA. When the fire retardancy is dominated by a surface mechanism, dependence on the duration of weathering is detected: for intumescent formulations based on ammonium APP in PP, a worsening in the formation of the intumescent network was observed.
