Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), 13C solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR), one- and two-dimensional fourier transform infrared spectroscopes (FT-IR), Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) have been used to investigate the miscibility behavior and specific interactions of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), (PHB) blending with poly(styrene-co-vinyl phenol), (PS-co-PVPh) through hydrogen bonding complex upon varying the vinyl phenol contents in copolymer.
We describe FT-IR spectra reveal that hydrogen bonding between carbonyl and phenol. A miscibility window exists when the vinyl phenol fraction in the copolymer is greater than 20 mol% in the PHB/PS-co-PVPh blend system, as predicted using the Painter¡VColeman association model.
The vinyl-terminated benzoxazine (VB-a), which can be polymerized through ring opening polymerization, was synthesized through the Mannich condensation of bisphenol A, formaldehyde, and allylamine. This VB-a monomer was then blending with epoxy resin, followed by thermal curing concurrently, to form epoxy/VB-a copolymers network. To understand the curing kinetics of this epoxy/VB-a copolymer, dynamic differential scanning calorimetry measurements were performed by Kissinger and Flynn-Wall-Osawa methods. The FTIR analyses revealed the presence of thermal curing reactions and hydrogen bonding interaction of epoxy/VB-a copolymers. Meanwhile, the significant enhancement of the ring opening and allyl polymerizations of the epoxy was observed. For these IPNs, DMA and TGA results indicate that the thermal properties increase with the increase of VB-a contents in epoxy/VB-a copolymers.
