Glass Transition and its Characteristic Length for Thin Crosslinked Polystyrene Shells of Rodlike Capsules
Rodlike capsules consisting of a calcium carbonate core and a crosslinked polystyrene shell were synthesized, and the glass transition temperature (Tg) and characteristic length of the glass transition ξ(Tg) for the thin outer shells were investigated by temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry. The shell thickness ranged from 20 to 129 nm. The ratio of the Tg for the outer shell...
متن کاملSmall Characteristic Length at the Glass Transition Cooperativity Onset
A fluctuation theory approach to a cooperativity onset of the dynamic glass transition is described. Recent dielectric and heat capacity spectroscopy (HCS) experiments for several random copolymers of n-butyl methacrylate with styrene indicate a steep linear increase of relaxation intensities (lie, chop) and of square root of cooperativity (Nj/~)
متن کاملStudying the Adhesion Force and Glass Transition of Thin Polystyrene Films by Atomic Force Microscopy
The relaxation behaviors of thin polymer films show a strong dependence on temperature and film thickness. Direct quantitative detection of the relaxation behaviors of thin polymer films at nanometer scale by traditional instruments is however challenging. In this study, we employed atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based force-distance curve to study the relaxation dynamics and the film thickness ...
متن کاملInterface and Surface Effects on the Glass Transition in Thin Polystyrene Films
Lifetime analysis of positronium annihilating in nanometer voids is used to study the thermal expansion behavior of thin, Si-supported polystyrene films near the glass transition temperature Tg. A reduction in void volume expansion is correlated with a reduction in the apparent Tg as film thickness decreases. Our results can be fitted using a three-layer model incorporating a 50 Å constrained l...
متن کاملFormation of Uniform Polyaniline Thin Shells and Hollow Capsules Using Polyelectrolyte-Coated Microspheres as Templates
Multilayers of poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) precoated onto melamine formaldehyde (MF) particles via the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly procedure were used as templates for the subsequent deposition of polyaniline (PANI). Transmission electron microscopic (TEM) and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images reveal that the as-prepared PANIcontain...
