Impact of thermal oxidation on mechanical behavior of polydicylopentadiene: Case of non-diffusion limited oxidation

Abstract: Impact of thermal oxidation on mechanical behavior of polydicyclopentadiene (pDCPD) is studied in this paper. Thermal oxidation is performed over a wide range of ageing temperature, from 20 C to 120 C using 60 mm thin films in order to avoid heterogeneous degradation through sample thickness. After several ageing durations, chemical changes were monitored using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and network modification (e.g. glass transition, Tg) was measured using dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA… Show more

“…Let us recall that, according to previous works in PDCPD [12] or other polyolefins [16], the end of induction period (in terms of carbonyl build-up) corresponds to the loss of mechanical toughness (for example a drop in elongation at break), in other words to end-of-life (NB: a more thorough investigation will be presented in Ref. [17]). For better illustrating the effect of stabilizer concentration, the changes of oxidation rate and lifetime with concentration of stabilizers are summarized in Fig.…”

“…However, the effectiveness of such low-molar mass additive is limited by incompatibility [16] and migration out polymer matrix [17][18] . Despite the presence of BHT, PDCPD undergoes oxidation that favors crosslinking leading to a large increase in glass transition temperature ( T g ) together with an increase in rubbery modulus and maximal stress [19] and, as a consequence, an embrittlement of the polymer. Use of the hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) stabilizer Tinuvin 123 or Chimassorb 2020 instead of BHT allows to improve the protection performance especially when lowering the ageing temperature [20] .…”

“…For evaluating the resistance to crack propagation, the Essential Work of Fracture (EWF) method [11,12] should be the first choice, which analyzes the fracture properties of notched specimens. As one of the alternative options, it is sometimes evaluated from the area under the stress-strain curve [13] of the classical tensile test, a routine procedure for characterizing mechanical properties in the polymer degradation field [4,14,15].…”
