Constant temperature embossing of supercooled polymer filmsKuduva Raman Thanumoorthy, Ramasubramani 21 January 2011 (has links)
In this dissertation work, a constant temperature embossing process was developed and investigated. By softening and crystallizing a supercooled polymer at the same temperature, the embossing and solidification stages can be carried out isothermally without thermal cycling. The new process was demonstrated for replicating rectangular trenches with different aspect ratio for two different polymers PET and PEEK.
The raw materials were characterized for their thermal and rheological properties to determine the processing parameters. The polymers were also characterized by a modified tensile testing apparatus to determine the tensile properties of the film during embossing. The processing parameters including embossing temperature, embossing pressure and embossing time were varied based on the material properties and optimized.
A semi-empirical model was established to correlate the crystallizing kinetics of the materials to the change in rheological properties during embossing. The model was used as a tool to predict the rheological properties of the polymer at conditions where experimental determination is difficult.
Finally, embossing simulations with the semi-empirical rheological model were conducted to study the unique process dynamics of constant-temperature embossing and verify some experimental findings. Different cases of constant-temperature embossing involving low to high rates of crystallization were simulated and compared with the conventional embossing process. Based on the experimental and simulation results, processing strategies for constant-temperature embossing were devised.

Crystallization and melting behavior studies of un-nucleated and silica-nucleated isotactic polystyrene and isotactic poly(propylene oxide)Kennedy, Mary A. January 1988 (has links)
The effect of silica on the crystallization and melting behavior of a highly isotactic, well characterized isotactic polystyrene (i-PS) have been investigated. The origins of the various endotherms obtained upon heating have been defined by partial scanning experiments and by a study of the effect of heating rate using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The presence of 1 part silica in 100 parts polymer (1 pph) decreases the maximum degree of crystallinity considerably but has a minimal effect on the rate of crystallization. Analysis by the Avrami method shows that the silica does not affect the overall rate of crystallization significantly. The decrease in the crystallinity indicates that silica affects the level of secondary crystallization, thus the crystal perfection. / The surface morphologies and growth rates of i-PS spherulites, as studied by photomicroscopy, were not affected by 1 pph of silica. The experimental data were fitted to a modified form of the Hoffman-Lauritzen equation. / The effect of silica on spherulite growth rates and surface morphologies of isotactic poly(propylene oxide) (i-PPO) have also been investigated by optical microscopy. Two distinct i-PPO samples of different molecular weights were used, each of which was highly isotactic. The addition of silica has a pronounced effect on the morphology of the spherulites, producing dendritic type morphology. Upon step-crystallization, the spherulites exhibited mixed morphologies, i.e., fibrillar and ringed. Silica depresses the spherulite growth rates throughout the entire temperature range. The effects were more profound as the quantity of filler increased. The growth rate-temperature behavior was analysed in terms of the classical Hoffman-Lauritzen equation and a modified version to take into account the polymer-filler interaction.
