Organicko-anorganické polymery - syntéza a charakterizace hybridních polymerů a nanokompozitů / Organic-inorganic polymers - synthesis and characterization of hybrid polymers and nanocomposites

Depa, Katarzyna January 2017 (has links)
In the first part of this work, silica nanoparticles and alternative or additional filler phases were incorporated into hydrogels based on the temperature-sensitive poly(N- isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm). Nano-SiO2-filled porous PNIPAm hydrogels with an enhanced force response (up to 100 g) to temperature stimuli were obtained by increasing several times the pore wall thickness, which was achieved via reducing the solvent (porogen) content during the gels' cryo-synthesis. A similar optimization of the force response was also carried out for analogous gels reinforced by nano-TiO2, in which the reinforcing effect of the filler is weaker. Partial intercalation of amylopectin starch into divinyl-crosslinked bulk as well as porous PNIPAm gels several times improved their extensibility. In case of starch-rich bulk gels, a very fast and extensive one-way deswelling in response to increased temperature was achieved (re-swelling upon cooling is much slower), which is attributed to specific properties of the starch-PNIPAm interface. In doubly-filled bulk PNIPAm/nano-SiO2/starch gels, a very strong synergic reinforcing effect of both fillers is observed, due to specific hydrogen bridging between the three phases. Highly porous cryogels based on PNIPAm/nano- SiO2/starch displayed a highly improved extensibility...

Étude du comportement thermique et sous irradiation du xénon dans l’oxycarbure de zirconium / Xenon behaviour in zirconium oxycarbide : effect of temperature and irradiation

Gutierrez, Gaëlle 15 December 2011 (has links)
Les réacteurs GEN IV (GFR) nécessitent l’emploi de matériaux d’enrobage ayant une bonne transparence aux neutrons, une conductivité thermique élevée et agissant comme barrière de diffusion pour les produits de fission. Le but de cette étude est de déterminer le rôle de la température et de l’irradiation sur le comportement du xénon implanté dans l’oxycarbure de zirconium (ZrCxOy). A cet effet, des poudres de deux stoechiométries ZrC0,95O0,05 et ZrC0,8O0,2 ont été synthétisées puis frittées par frittage flash, ou sous charge. Pour étudier le rôle de la fluence d’implantation sur la migration thermique du xénon dans le ZrC0.95O0.05, des ions 136Xe2+ ont été implantés à une énergie de 800 keV à trois fluences : 1015, 1016 et 1017 at/cm². Les échantillons ont ensuite été recuits sous vide secondaire dans une gamme de températures de 1500 à 1800°C. Les profils de distribution du xénon ont été mesurés par RBS ou par SIMS. Des analyses par MET, MEB, NBS et PAS-DBS ont été réalisées à chaque étape. Cette étude a montré qu’à 1015 et 1016 at/cm2 le xénon est piégé dans des bulles nanométriques dans les murs de dislocations. A 1017 at/cm2, la coalescence des bulles de plus grandes tailles conduit au relâchement du xénon aux joints de grains. Pour les échantillons de ZrC0,8O0,2, les recuits conduisent à une oxydation de surface corrélée à un important relâchement du xénon. Parallèlement, des expériences d’irradiation ont été effectuées sur la plateforme JANNUS et auprès du Tandem afin de déterminer le rôle respectif des dégâts balistiques et électroniques sur la migration du xénon. Nous avons observé que ces conditions d’irradiation n’entrainaient pas de migration du xénon / Refractory ceramics are considered for the GEN IV reactors (GFR). Transition metal carbides, like ZrC, are candidates as components for fuel elements owing to their good thermal stability and their neutronic performance. An extensive study was carried out to elucidate the role of temperature on the diffusion of xenon, an abundant and volatile radionuclide, in zirconium oxycarbide. For that purpose, dense zirconium carbide samples ZrC0.8O0.2 and ZrC0.95O0.05 were synthesized using Spark Plasma Sintering and Hot Pressing. 136Xe2+ ions were implanted at three fluencies: 1015, 1016 and 1017 at/cm2, at an energy of 800 keV. Thermal annealing were carried out under vacuum in a temperature range of 1500°C to 1800°C. The Xe distribution profiles were measured either by Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry or by Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry before and after the different treatments. Our results show that the ZrC0.8O0.2 stoichiometry is not stable at high temperature and for the ZrC0.95O0.05 stoichiometry, the Xe migration behaviour depends on the implantation fluence. The role of the implantation defects, their evolution during annealing and the trapping of Xe into bubbles was evidenced using Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy. In order to simulate the effects due to neutron irradiation, irradiation experiments were carried out at the JANNUS irradiation platform at CEA Saclay and the Alto Tandem accelerator at Orsay taking into account the respective roles of the ballistic and electronic processes. We observed that no xenon migration occurred after irradiation
