    Notes: The present paper explores an effective means of characterizing structural changes of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) particles during gelation and fusion of PVC plastisols with small angle light scattering (SALS). The SALS method was shown to provide an in situ observation of swelling of PVC particles as well as quantitative information of average size of swollen particles while they are in progress of gelation and fusion. In addition, the SALS method enabled one to evaluate the relative solvent power of plasticizers from the manner of increase in the correlation distances.

    Notes: Four reverse osmosis (RO) composite membranes, in which thin-film active layers were polyphenyl esters, were prepared by interfacial polymerization of a series of bisphenol monomers and trimesoyl chloride (TMC). An atomic force microscope (AFM) was used to investigate the surface morphology and RO experiments were carried out to measure the rejection and flux characteristics of the membranes. Correlations between the inherent chemical nature of bisphenols possessing structural variations in the middle of phenyl rings and the surface morphology/RO performance of the membranes were studied. Polarity of the connectors between two phenyl rings of bisphenols played an important role in determining the surface morphology and RO performance. Nonpolar bisphenol gave a morphology of uniform, distinct nodular corrugation and a superior RO rejection but a relatively low flux, while the polar one resulted in an irregular, ambiguous nodule structure and a high flux. The size of the bisphenol connectors was also found to be important; the smaller one was more favorable for the formation of membrane with better salt rejection, while the larger one contributed to higher flux. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Dynamic mechanical and solid-state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses have been used to assess a molecular-scale heterogeneity in a raw elastomer (butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer elastomer, NBR), a microcrystalline polymer (poly(vinyl chloride), PVC), and their 50/50 blend. The presence of the microcrystalline heterogeneity in PVC and in the blend was characterized by the temperature dependence of the frequency-swept dynamic mechanical behavior. The NMR T1ρ relaxation experiments with cross-polarization (CP) and magic-angle spinning (MAS) revealed that (1) NBR contained a substantial fraction (ca. 27%) of a molecular-scale heterogeneity identified as butadiene blocks, (2) the fraction of microcrystallites in PVC was ca. 14%, (3) pure phases of both component polymers were present in the blend, dispersed in the mixed matrix, (4) the upper limit of the heterogeneous domains was estimated to be ca. 2.4 nm, and (5) fractions of heterogeneity tend to increase upon blending, indicating that the solubility of the butadiene block and syndiotactic PVC block decreases in the blend. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The structural changes of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) plastisols during mixing of PVC with a plasticizer was investigated; as the temperature was increased, the system was found to transform from a suspension of solid particles in a liquid medium to a swollen gel and ultimately to a fused homogeneous matrix. The dynamic viscoelastic measurements were utilized to continuously monitor the changes of moduli under a controlled heating rate, employing a mechanical spectrometer. Characteristic changes in the viscoelastic behavior were associated with changes in particulate morphology as observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Both viscoelastic and morphological observations were shown to provide details of structural changes in conjunction with the behavior of the PVC-plasticizer interaction, enabling a qualitative discrimination of the gelation and fusion processes. An in situ small-angle light-scattering (SALS) method was performed to make a quantitative estimate for the swollen particles of PVC while they were in the progress of gelation and fusion. From the manner of increase in correlation distances, along with the changes in viscoelastic moduli and morphology, the swelling behavior of the particulate structures were examined on the quantitative basis and brief insight into the complex behavior of the PVC-plasticizer interaction began to be unfolded. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
