Processos de polimerização e transição de colapso em polímeros ramificados. / Polymerization processes and collapse transition of branched polymers.

Ubiraci Pereira da Costa Neves 13 March 1997 (has links)
Estudamos o diagrama de fases e o ponto tricrítico da transição de colapso em um modelo de animais na rede quadrada, a partir da expansão em série da compressibilidade isotérmica KT do sistema. Como função das variáveis x (fugacidade) e y = e1/T (T é a temperatura reduzida), a serie KT é analisada utilizando-se a técnica dos aproximantes diferenciais parciais. Determinamos o padrão de fluxo das trajetórias características de um típico aproximante diferencial parcial com ponto fixo estável. Obtemos estimativas satisfatórias para a fugacidade tricrítica Xt = 0.024 &#177 0.005 e a temperatura tricritica Tt = 0.54 &#177 0.04. Considerando somente campos de escala lineares, obtemos também o expoente de escala &#947 = 1.4 &#177 0.2 e o expoente \"crossover\" &#934 = 0.66 &#177 0.08. Nossos resultados estão em boa concordância com estimativas prévias obtidas por outros métodos. Também estudamos um processo de polimerização ramifIcada através de simulações computacionais na rede quadrada baseadas em um modelo de crescimento cinético generalizado para se incorporar ramifIcações e impurezas. A configuração do polímero e identificada com uma árvore-ligação (\"bond tree\") a fim de se examinar os aspectos topológicos. As dimensões fractais dos aglomerados (\"clusters\") são obtidas na criticalidade. As simulações também permitem o estudo da evolução temporal dos aglomerados bem como a determinação das auto-correlações temporais e expoentes críticos dinâmicos. Com relação aos efeitos de tamanho finito, uma técnica de cumulantes de quarta ordem e empregada para se estimar a probabilidade de ramificação critica bc e os expoentes críticos v e &#946. Na ausência de impurezas, a rugosidade da superfície e descrita em termos dos expoentes de Hurst. Finalmente, simulamos este modelo de crescimento cinético na rede quadrada utilizando um método de Monte Carlo para estudar a polimerização ramificada com interações atrativas de curto alcance entre os monômeros. O diagrama de fases que separa os regimes de crescimento finito e infinito e obtido no plano (T,b) (T é a temperatura reduzida e b é a probabilidade de ramificação). No limite termodinâmico, extrapolamos a temperatura T&#8727 = 0.102 &#177 0.005 abaixo da qual a fase e sempre infinita. Observamos também a ocorrência de uma transição de rugosidade na superfície do polímero. / The phase diagram and the tricritical point of a collapsing lattice animal are studied through an extended series expansion of the isothermal compressibility KT on a square lattice. As a function of the variables x (fugacity) and y = e1/T (T is the reduced temperature), this series KT is investigated using the partial differential approximants technique. The characteristic flow pattern of partial differential approximant trajectories is determined for a typical stable fixed point. We obtain satisfactory estimates for the tricritical fugacity Xt = 0.024 &#177 0.005and temperature Tt = 0.54 &#177 0.04.Taking into account only linear scaling fields we are also able to get the scaling exponent &#947 = 1.4 &#177 0.2 and the crossover exponent &#934 = 0.66 &#177 0.08. Our results are in good agreement with previous estimates from other methods. We also study ramified polymerization through computational simulations on the square lattice of a kinetic growth model generalized to incorporate branching and impurities. The polymer configuration is identified with a bond tree in order to examine its topology. The fractal dimensions of clusters are obtained at criticality. Simulations also allow the study of time evolution of clusters as well as the determination of time autocorrelations and dynamical critical exponents. In regard to finite size effects, a fourth-order cumulant technique is employed to estimate the critical branching probability be and the critical exponents v and &#946. In the absence of impurities, the surface roughness is described in terms of the Hurst exponents. Finally we simulate this kinetic growth model on the square lattice using a Monte Carlo approach in order to study ramified polymerization with short distance attractive interactions between monomers. The phase boundary separating finite from infinite growth regimes is obtained in the (T,b) space (T is the reduced temperature and b is the branching probability). In the thermodynamic limit, we extrapolate the temperature T = 0.102 &#177 0.005 below which the phase is found to be always infinite. We also observe the occurrence of a roughening transition at the polymer surface.

Konjugované porézní polymery odvozené od diethynylarenů řetězovou polymerizací a polycyklotrimerizací / Conjugated porous polymers derived from diethynylarenes by chain-growth polymerization and polycyclotrimerization

Slováková, Eva January 2015 (has links)
4 ABSTRACT The synthesis has been described yielding a new type of rigid conjugated polymer networks which possess a high content of permanent micropores and macropores and exhibit high surface areas up to 1469 m2/g. The networks have been prepared via chain-growth coordination polymerization catalysed with insertion catalysts based on Rh complexes. This polymerization has been newly applied to bifunctional acetylenic monomers of diethynylarene type (1,4-diethynylbenzene, 1,3-diethynylbenzene and 4,4'-diethynylbiphenyl). The covalent structure of the networks consists of the polyacetylene main chains densely connected by arylene struts. The W and Mo metathesis catalysts have been revealed as inefficient for the synthesis of these networks. The increase in the polymerization temperature and time has been shown to affect positively the content and the diameter (up to 22 nm) of the mesopores in the networks. A mechanism has been proposed that explains the mesopores formation as a result of mutual knitting of small particles of the microporous polymer. The application of emulsion polymerization technique allowed to prepare texturally hierarchical polyacetylene networks possessing interconnected open macropores (diameter up to 4,8 μm) the walls of which exhibited micro/mesoporous texture. It was demonstrated...
