Polar groups were introduced on polypropylene surfaces for increasing the surface energy and the peel strength to evaporated aluminium layers. Three kinds of plasma processes were used for introducing such functional groups to polyolefin surfaces: low-pressure radio-frequency (RF) O2 plasma exposure, atmospheric-pressure dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) treatment in air, and the deposition of allylamine plasma polymer. The amino groups of the allylamine plasma polymer were also used as anchoring points for chemical introduction of covalently bonded spacer molecules equipped with reactive endgroups. Thus, silanol endgroups of a covalently bonded spacer were able to interact with the evaporated metal layer. The Al-PP composites achieved a maximal peel strength of 470 N/m by exposing the polymer to the lowpressure O2 plasma and 500 N/m on exposure to the atmospheric DBD plasma. After allylamine plasma polymerization and grafting of spacers, the peel strength was usually higher than 1500 N/m and the composites could not be peeled.
Glass Transition of Thin Poly(bisphenol A carbonate) Films Studied by Dielectric Spectroscopy
(2011)
Broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS), capacitive scanning dilatometry (CSD) and differential ac-chip calorimetry (DACC) were used to examine the glass transition and segmental dynamics of ultrathin poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PBAC) films. An increase of Vogel temperature (T0) as well as glass transition temperature (Tg) with decreasing film thickness was observed when the thickness is less than 20 nm. Moreover, the segmental relaxation time at a fixed temperature was found to increase for the aluminium (Al) capped PBAC films (<20 nm) in the BDS measurements, whereas in the DACC measurements no thickness dependency of the segmental dynamics was detected within the experimental error limit for the supported PBAC films (10-55 nm). These properties are discussed in terms of the thin film geometry and the relevant interfacial interaction between the polymer and the substrate.
Specific heat spectroscopy in the frequency range from 1 Hz to 10³ Hz with a sensitivity of pJ K-1 was employed to study the glass transition behavior of ultrathin poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PBAC) films with thicknesses ranging from 192 nm down to 10 nm. The amplitude and the phase angle of the complex differential voltage as a measure of the complex heat capacity were obtained as a function of temperature at a given frequency simultaneously. Both spectra are used to determine the dynamic glass transition temperature as a function of both the frequency and the film thickness. As the main result no thickness dependence of the dynamic glass transition temperature was observed down to a film thickness of 10 nm within the experimental uncertainty of ±3 K. The obtained data were compared with literature results in detail.
The molecular dynamics of the discotic liquid crystal pyrene-1,3,6,8-tetracarboxylic tetra(2-ethylhexyl)ester is studied by dielectric relaxation and specific heat spectroscopy. Dielectric spectroscopy shows 3 processes: a β-relaxation at low temperatures and an α-relaxation in the temperature range of the mesophases followed by conductivity. The dielectric α-relaxation is assigned to a restricted glassy dynamics in the plastic crystal as well as in the liquid crystalline phase. The obtained different Vogel–Fulcher–Tammann laws (different Vogel temperatures and fragility) are related to the different restrictions of the dipolar fluctuations in the corresponding phases. By means of specific heat spectroscopy glassy dynamics is also detected in the plastic crystalline phase but with quite a different temperature dependence of the relaxation times. This is discussed considering the different probes involved and how they are influenced by the structure. In the frame of the fluctuation approach a correlation length of glassy dynamics is calculated to 0.78 nm which corresponds to the core–core distance estimated by X-ray scattering.
