Les pièces situées dans des zones chaudes/tièdes (300-400°C) de l'avion sont actuellement en titane (mât moteur) ou en composite à matrice époxy (plenum). Comment pourrait-on diminuer la masse de ces pièces tout en évitant leur dégradation à hautes températures de fonctionnement ? Le projet TACT (Technologie pour Aérostructures composites Tièdes), porté par Nimitech Innovation® (Groupe LAUAK), propose une solution innovante consistant à mettre en oeuvre par voie RTM des pièces structurales tièdes à base de renfort en fibres de carbone (FC) et de matrice Cyanate ester (CE). Le choix de la matrice thermodurcissable CE est justifié par son caractère thermostable, c'est-à-dire sa capacité d'opérer en continu à de hautes températures de fonctionnement (avec une température de transition vitreuse Tg>300°C). Par ailleurs, elle possède la facilité de mise en oeuvre des époxydes du fait qu'elle s'adapte généralement bien aux paramètres du procédé RTM. Toutefois, l'exothermie élevée de la matrice CE lors de la réticulation implique un gradient de température dans la pièce composite et peut ainsi engendrer des problèmes de surchauffe. Les travaux scientifiques menés dans le cadre de cette thèse se focalisent sur la problématique de surchauffe de la résine pendant le processus de polymérisation très exothermique dans le moule RTM. L'objectif serait ainsi de maîtriser le cycle de cuisson du composite afin d'éviter tout problème d'emballement ou de dégradation pendant la réticulation de la matrice. Dès lors, la thèse s'organise de la manière suivante : dans un premier temps, le comportement thermocinétique de la matrice CE (pure et catalysée) est analysé pendant l'étape de réticulation, et ceci dans l'optique de contribuer à l'optimisation de cycle de cuisson lors de la mise en oeuvre du composite FC/CE par procédé RTM. Ensuite, les propriétés thermiques (capacité calorifique, conductivité, diffusivité) en fonction du degré d'avancement de la résine CE sont menés afin d'évaluer le gradient thermique régi par l'équation de la chaleur permettant de maîtriser la cuisson de la résine dans l'épaisseur. Par ailleurs, la vitrification de la matrice CE est étudiée par le suivi de la température de transition vitreuse Tg en fonction de la température et du taux d'avancement à l'aide de différents techniques de mesure (DSC, DMA, TMA). Enfin, une modélisation de la vitrification à l'aide du modèle Di-Benedetto permettra l'estimation de la température de la transition vitreuse Tg ∞ pour le réseau tridimentionnel entièrement réticulé. / Aeronautical parts which operate in high temperature area (300-400°C) are currently made of titanium (aircraft pylon) or composite materials based on epoxy matrix (plenum). In which extent the weight of these pieces could be reduced as well as avoiding their degradation when operating at these working temperature ranges? TACT project (Technologie pour Aérostructures composites Tièdes), overseen by Nimitech Innovation® (Groupe LAUAK), suggests an innovative solution based on the development of high performance composites parts reinforced by carbon fibers (CF) and cyanate ester matrix (CE) through RTM process. The CE resin belongs to the class of high-performance thermosetting polymers and is mainly chosen in this project due to its thermal stability when operating at high temperatures (with a glass transition Tg>300°C), as well as epoxy-like processability. However, the cross-linking reaction exhibits highly exothermic process, resulting in non-linear increase in internal temperature, which may cause a temperature overshoot. The scientific work carried out within this thesis focuses on the problem of overheating of the resin during the highly exothermic polymerization process in the RTM mold. The objective would thus be to control the curing cycle of the composite in order to avoid problems of runaway or degradation during the crosslinking of the matrix. Hence, the thesis is organized as follows: firstly, thermokinetic behavior of CE resin is analyzed during the crosslinking process in order to optimize the curing cycle. Secondly, thermal properties (heat capacity, conductivity, diffusivity) are identified as a function of the conversion degree in order to evaluate the thermal gradient covered by the heat equation making it possible to control the curing along the thickness of the composite. Moreover, the vitrification of the cyanate ester matrix is studied by monitoring the glass transition temperature Tg as a function of the temperature and conversion degree using different methods (DSC, DMA, TMA). Finally, Di-Benedetto model, a vitrification model, is chosen in order to identify the glass transition temperature Tg∞ of a full crosslinked resin.

The large amount of non-degradable plastic waste has become a significant environmental concern, leading to an increased need for degradable plastics. Here in, to create degradable polymers, polyesters were produced through radical ring opening polymerization using cyclic ketene acetals. The cyclic ketene acetal monomer 5,6-benzo-2-methylene-1,3-dioxepane has been prepared for the synthesis of homo- and copolymers with methyl methacrylate, α-methylene-γ-valerolactone, α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone, cholesterol methacrylate and limonene acrylate. The polymerization was conducted using radical ring opening polymerization both in bulk and solution polymerization. The structural characteristics of the polymer were determined by different characterization methodologies, including TGA, DSC, SEC, FTIR and 1D 1H-NMR. The results obtained from 1H-NMR analysis showed the composition of the copolymers. TGA analysis revealed the thermal stability of the polymers and their degradation patterns. DSC analysis provided information about the glass transition temperatures (Tg’s) of the polymers. Moreover, the Tg indicated the presence and amounts of comonomers in the copolymers. Overall, the results showed the influence of different comonomers on the properties of the polymers by successfully incorporating the comonomers in the polymer. The thermal properties for polymers containing methyl methacrylate became more thermally stable. The Tg, analyzed with DSC, shifted from the Tg of homopolymers indicating the incorporation of both monomers. The polymers were successfully degraded via hydrolysis in alkaline conditions breaking them down into smaller pieces making them easier to recycle. To conclude, the results all indicate that the incorporation of BMDO and thereby possibly other CKA-monomers into the polymer chains of commonly used plastics could provide valuable tools in the recycling of said plastics.

Das dreistufige Flüssigsilicierverfahren (LSI) stellt eine Methode dar, siliciumcarbidbasierte faserverstärkte Keramiken herzustellen. Ausgangspunkt ist ein faserverstärkter Kunststoff, der über Pyrolyse (Konvertierung des Matrixpolymers in Kohlenstoff) und Silicierung (Siliciuminfiltration und Reaktion zu Siliciumcarbid) keramisiert wird. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die Matrix mittels der verwendeten Matrixpolymere (Matrixdesign) und das Faser/Matrix-Interface durch das Aufbringen von Faserbeschichtungen (Interfacedesign) definiert gestaltet. Die in der Arbeit eingesetzten Matrixpolymere beeinflussen durch eine unterschiedliche Poren- und Rissbildung in der Kohlenstoffmatrix die Siliciuminfiltration und die damit verbundene Siliciumcarbidbildung. Die Matrixpolymere erzeugen einerseits eine C-SiC-Dualphasenmatrix, wie diese bei den C/C-SiC-Verbunden angestrebt wird. Andererseits kann eine weitestgehend einphasige SiC-Matrix eingestellt werden, welche für die Herstellung von SiC/SiC-Verbunden interessant ist. Bei diesen Verbundwerkstoffen ist eine zusätzliche Faserbeschichtung entscheidend, um die Faser/Matrix-Bindung zu reduzieren und die Fasern vor dem Siliciumangriff während der Herstellung zu schützen. Als Faserbeschichtung werden eine BNx-Schicht und eine SiNx-Schicht entwickelt, die in einer BNx/SiNx-Doppelschicht kombiniert werden. Die Schichtherstellung erfolgt mittels chemischer Gasphasenabscheidung (CVD) auf einem kommerziellen SiC-Fasergarn (Tyranno SA3). Die amorphe BNx-Schicht ist innerhalb des Fasergarnes sehr homogen. Dahingegen besitzt die amorphe SiNx-Schicht einen Gradient in der Schichtdicke sowie in der chemischen Zusammensetzung. Bei der thermischen Auslagerung bleibt die BNx-Schicht stabil. Die SiNx-Schicht kristallisiert und es bilden sich Poren und Siliciumausscheidungen innerhalb der Schicht. Zudem entstehen teilweise Risse und Schichtabplatzungen. Weitere alternative Schichtkonzepte werden vorgeschlagen. / The liquid silicon infiltration (LSI) process is used to produce silicon carbide (SiC) based fiber reinforced ceramics and consists of three stages. Starting point is a fiber reinforced plastic, which is ceramized by means of pyrolysis (conversion of the matrix polymer to carbon) and siliconization (silicon infiltration and reaction to form silicon carbide). In the present work, the matrix and the fiber/matrix interface are designed by utilizing special matrix polymers and fiber coatings, respectively. The used matrix polymers lead to different pore and crack formation in the carbon matrix affecting the liquid silicon infiltration and the silicon carbide formation. The polymers not only create a dual phase C-SiC matrix, which is aspired for the production of C/C-SiC composites, but also form a single phase SiC matrix favorable for the SiC/SiC composite production. An additional coating of the fibers for these composite materials is crucial to reduce the fiber/matrix bonding and to protect the fibers from corrosive silicon attack. Separate BNx and SiNx single coatings are developed, which are combined to a double coating. The coating process is realized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on a commercial SiC fiber yarn (Tyranno SA3). The amorphous BNx coating is very uniform within the yarn, whereas the amorphous SiNx coating is characterized by a gradient regarding the layer thickness as well as the chemical composition. During the high temperature heat treatment the BNx coating remains stable. The SiNx coating crystallizes and pores as well as silicon precipitations are formed. Moreover, the coating partially ruptures. In this work, some additional alternative coating concepts are also proposed.

Cyclooctyne and cycloocten-5-yne undergo, at room temperature, a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates 1a,b to generate furan-derived short-lived intermediates 2, which can be trapped by two additional equivalents of 1a,b or alternatively by methanol, phenol, water or aldehydes to yield polycyclic products 3b–d, orthoesters 4a–c, ketones 5 or epoxides 6a,b, respectively. Treatment of bis(trimethylsilyl) acetylenedicarboxylate (1c) with cyclooctyne leads to the ketone 7 via retro-Brook rearrangement of the dipolar intermediate 2c. In all cases, the products are formed with perfect atom economy.

L’alcool polyvinylique a été fonctionnalisé avec des aldéhydes et des acides boroniques dans le but d’obtenir des polymères pouvant apporter de la brillance tout en étant solubles dans les formulations de rouges à lèvres ou de vernis à ongles. De bons taux de fonctionnalisation ont été obtenus permettant d’avoir une bibliothèque de poly(vinyl acétals) et de poly(vinyl esters boroniques) d’une cinquantaine de polymères. Une multi-fonctionnalisation du PVA a été effectuée pour obtenir des polymères alliant ces deux propriétés. Cinq poly(vinyl acétals) ont ainsi permis d’apporter une forte brillance à des rouges à lèvres. La E-poly-L-lysine a également été fonctionnalisée avec diverses cétones afin d’obtenir de nouvelles poly-4-imidazolidinones. Ces polymères sont prometteurs pour des applications dans des produits cosmétiques tels que des soins. Ils ont également été utilisés en catalyse organique asymétrique. / Poly(vinyl alcohol) has been functionalized with aldehydes and boronic acids to obtain polymers with high shining and being soluble in cosmetic formulations as lipsticks or nail polishes. Good grafting rates have been obtained permitting to have a library of about fifty poly(vinyl acetals) and poly(vinyl boronic esters). Multi-functionalization has been developped to obtain polymers having these both properties. Five polymers gave strong shining to lipsticks. E-poly-L-lysine was also functionalized with several ketones to obtain new poly-4-imidazolidinones. These polymers are promising for cosmetic applications as skincare products. They were also used for organocatalysis.

Sample preparation as an essential step in mass spectrometry-based analysis, plays a critical role in proteomics studies. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been widely used in protein and peptide sample preparation due to their magnetic properties, biocompatibility, easy synthesis and surface functionalization. MNPs loaded with analyte or analyte modification reagent can be easily separated from the reaction medium by an externally applied magnetic field. The small size of MNPs provides high analyte loading and extraction capacity. Additionally, MNP can be decorated with different functional groups to achieve selective modification or extraction of analyte. In this study we have utilized silica coated iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs) for protein and peptide sample preparation. Fluorescence-based methods were utilized for quantitative and qualitative characterization of N-hydrosucccinimidyl (NHS) ester groups on the surface of Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs. Fluorophore Dansylcadaverine was conjugated to NHS ester functional groups. Fluorometric measurement of cleaved dansylcadaveine was employed to determine the number of NHS ester groups per MNPs that was found to be 2.6 × 102 and 3.4 × 103for 20 nm and 100 nm Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPrespectively. The efficiency of labeling native bovine serum albumin (BSA) by NHS ester coated Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs was also explored in terms of maximizing the number of MNPs conjugated per BSA molecule or maximizing the number of BSA molecules conjugated per each MNP. Lysine residues of apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) on the surface of intact human low density lipoprotein (LDL) were labeled by NHS ester modified Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs in aqueous solvents at room temperature. The MNP labeledapoB-100 was treated by SDS to remove lipids and then digested using trypsin. Tryptic peptides were eluted from MNPs by cleaving disulfide linkage between labeled peptides and MNPs. LC-MS/MS analysis found 28 peptides containing labeled lysine residues. These lysine residues should be on the solvent exposed surface of LDL since the large size of MNPs prevents contact of the labeling reagent to those lysines embedded inside the structure of LDL. TCEP- immobilized Fe3O4@SiO2MNPs were fabricated and utilized for reduction of disulfide bonds in bovine pancreas insulin and two different cyclic peptides. Disulfide bonds were efficiently cleaved at room temperature in both organic and aqueous solvents confirmed by LC-MS/MS analysis of reduced/alkylated protein and peptides. Disulfide reduction and alkylation reactions was performed in one step and the reducing agent was simply separated from peptide and protein solution by magnetic separation.
