The glass transition behavior of thin films of poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PBAC) was studied employing ellipsometry. The glass transition temperature increases with the reduction of the film thickness. This result is attributed to the formation of an adsorbed layer with a reduced mobility compared to bulk PBAC. Therefore, for the first time, the growth kinetics of the adsorbed layer of PBAC was investigated, prepared by leaching samples from a 200 nm thin film which were annealed for several times at three different temperatures. The thickness of each prepared adsorbed layer was measured by multiple scans using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Additionally, an unannealed sample was measured. Comparison of the measurements of the unannealed and the annealed samples provides proof of a pre-growth regime for all annealing temperatures which was not observed for other polymers. For the lowest annealing temperature after the pre-growth stage only a growth regime with a linear time dependence is observed. For higher annealing temperatures the growth kinetics changes from a linear to a logarithmic growth regime at a critical time. At the longest annealing times the films showed signs of dewetting where segments of the adsorbed film were removed from the substrate (dewetting by desorption). The dependence of the surface roughness of the PBAC surface on annealing time also confirmed that the films annealed at highest temperatures for the longest times desorbed from the substrate.
Dielectric spectroscopy has been used to study poly(ethylene naphthalene 2,6 dicarboxylate) (PEN) samples of different morphologies obtained by thermally treating bi-axially stretched PEN films. Neat and thermally treated samples of PEN films have been characterised by differential scanning calorimetry in order to measure the glass transition and melting temperatures as well as the degrees of crystallinity. Dielectric analysis has allowed the observation of the evolution of molecular relaxation phenomena with morphology changes and has revealed three relaxation processes: ?-, ?*- and ?-relaxation (increasing temperature). The ?-relaxation is associated with local motions of ester and the ?*-relaxation with partially cooperative motions of naphthalene groups. The latter has been shown to be related to the morphology of the materials under study. The ?-relaxation associated to the glass transition of PEN corresponds to cooperative motions induced by conformational rearrangements of the main chain and depends also on the morphology of the PEN films. Dielectric relaxation behaviours were compared using the activation energies calculated from Arrhenius equation formalism for the two sub-glass processes. VogelFulcherTammann fits were performed on the ?-relaxation. Our important contribution for the bi-axially stretched PEN films study is related to the assignment of the ?*-relaxation that can be attributed to naphthalene aggregates.
Thin polymeric films are of great importance of high number of high-tech applications for instance in sensors and nanoelectronics. Form the scientific point of view thin films with thickness below 100 nm are ideal model systems to study confinement effects on its properties for instance on the molecular relaxation processes. In this contribution an overview is presented about the behavior of different systems as investigated by nanosized relaxation spectroscopy like broadband dielectric spectroscopy employing nano structured capacitors and AC chip calorimetry complimented by ellipsometry. The systems considered are PVME1, PVME/PS blends2,3 P2VP4, PBAC5 and polysulfone6. Besides the film also the adsorbed layer on the substrate prepared by a leaching approach and investigated by AFM is considered.1,4-7. For these investigationsss it is found that the adsorbed layer itself exhibits a relaxation dynamics which might be assigned either to molecular motions or to adsorptions desorption kinetics.
Hyperbranched poly(amidoamine)/kaolinite nanocomposites: Structure and charge carrier dynamics
(2017)
An ex-situ approach was applied to prepare nanocomposites from hyperbranched poly(amidoamine) and modified kaolinite (Ka-DCA). The structure of the polymer and the corresponding nanocomposites was investigated by FTIR, DSC, SAXS and TEM. SAXS might suggest a partly exfoliated structure of the nanocomposites, which was supported by TEM. The molecular dynamics was studied by means of broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS). The dielectric spectra are dominated by a conductivity
contribution at higher temperatures for all samples investigated. The obtained results further indicated that DC conductivity is increased by 4 orders of magnitude with increasing concentration of Ka-DCA nanofiller. Further, a significant separation between the conductivity relaxation time and that of segmental dynamics was observed. The decoupling phenomenon and the conductivity mechanism were discussed in detail. This study provides insights about the influence of the nanofiller on the structure and the conductivity contribution of nanocomposites of hyperbranched polymers including the decoupling phenomenon and fragility.
The retention of chemical structure and functional groups during pulsed plasma polymerization was used for producing adhesion-promoting plasma polymer layers with high concentrations of exclusively one kind of functional groups, such as OH, NH2, or COOH. The maximum content of functional groups was 31 OH using allyl alcohol, 18 NH2 using allylamine, or 24 COOH per 100 C atoms using acrylic acid. To vary the density of functional groups, chemical co-polymerization with ethylene as 'chain-extending' co-monomer, or butadiene as 'chemical crosslinker' was initiated in the pulsed plasma. The composition of these co-polymers was investigated by XPS and IR spectroscopy. The concentrations of functional groups were measured by derivatizing with fluorine-containing reagents and using XPS. A set of plasma parameters was found to be a good compromise between a high number of functional groups and complete insolubility in water, ethanol or THF,which is needed for further chemical processing. Here, these monotype-functionalized surfaces were used in metal-polymer systems as adhesion-promoting interlayers to examine the influence of type and density of functional groups on adhesion. As expected, COOH- and OH-group-terminated interlayers showed maximum peel strengths to evaporated aluminium layers. The adhesion increased linearly with the number of OH groups to a maximum at about 27 OH per 100 C atoms. Higher concentrations of OH groups did not increase the peel strength further.
Two methods were employed to prepare hyperbranched polyamine ester (HPAE)/kaolinite (Ka) nanocomposites resulting in different morphologies. In the case of the in situ polymerization, diethanolamine is inserted as monomer between the Ka layers and polymerized with methyl acrylate to prepare HPAE/Ka–DEA nanocomposites. For the ex situ method, Ka is modified with dodecylamine and solution-blended with HPAE. The former method leads to an intercalated morphology where the latter approach results in an exfoliated structure, as proofed by SAXS and TEM. A complementary combination of methods like differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), broadband dielectric relaxation (BDS), and specific heat spectroscopy (SHS) was used to investigate both kinds of nanocomposites in detail. Above Tg, the dielectric spectra are dominated by the conductivity contribution while the segmental dynamics is retrieved by SHS. A comparison of the temperature dependencies reveals a decoupling of segmental dynamics and conductivity, which becomes weaker with decreasing fragility.
A series of amorphous photochromic homo- and copolymethacrylates with an azobenzene moiety in the side group is investigated systematically by optical and dielectric spectroscopy. The aliphatic ester component of the comonomer unit and the concentration of the azobenzene groups within the copolymer are varied. The kinetics and the temperature dependence of the E/Z (trans/cis) photoisomerization and of the thermal Z/E (cis/trans) isomerization is studied for spin-coated films of the polymers. To understand the polarity of the polymeric materials as well as the matrix dependence of the reactions and of the photoinduced reorientation processes in the steady state molecular dynamics is investigated by dielectric spectroscopy. A variety of relaxation processes is observed: a γ-relaxation at low temperatures followed by a β-, an α-, and a δ-process. Additionally at room temperature a new -relaxation is detected for polymers containing azobenzene moieties. The temperature dependence of the reaction rate of the thermal Z/E isomerization process measured by optical spectroscopy seems to correlate with the values of the β'-process. A correspondence between dielectric and photochemical behavior is discussed.
The crosslinking kinetic of a thin polymeric layer based on a prepolymer of a phthalic aciddiallylester was studied by real-time dielectric spectroscopy in the frequency range from 10-1 to 105 Hz. With increasing reaction time the real part of the dielectric function ε ´ decreases. The time dependence of ε ´ can be described by a stretched exponential function with a stretching exponent of 0.5. This means that the influence of the chemical reaction on ε ´ cannot be described by a first order kinetic. From the temperature dependence of the characteristic time constant an activation energy of 71 kJ/mol could be estimated for the reaction. From the dielectric loss data the change of the relaxation rate of the dynamic glass transition fpα with the reaction time is obtained. After a temperature dependent induction period fpα decreases very strongly. No plateau value which corresponds to a glass transition in the crosslinked system is obtained for long reaction times.
