Infrared spectroscopic study of the interactions of nylon‐6 with water

Abstract: ABSTRACT:We studied the interactions of nylon-6 with water by following the Fourier transform infrared spectra of a hydrated thin film during dehydration. Very small changes in the spectra caused by the interactions were clearly revealed by the application of spectral subtraction. The water was found to interact with amide groups to form hydrogen bonds with non-hydrogen-bonded or free C¢O and NH groups in the amorphous portion in the first hydration sphere. This was deduced from an analysis of minus and plus p… Show more

“…4a shows the infrared spectra of the bare and plasma coated PA samples. The spectrum of the as-received polyamide indicates the presence of N-H (3400 cm −1 ), C-H (2900 and 1400) and C-N (1600, 1540 and 1260 cm −1 ) groups, normally observed in this material [28]. With the deposition of the films, the bands related to N-H (3400 cm −1 ) and C-N (1600, 1540 cm −1 ) vibrations disappeared in the spectra, suggesting that the film completely coated the polymer surface.…”

“…129,135 The interactions of the amide groups with water are significantly stronger than the hydrogen bond between CO and NH in the crystalline portion according to the magnitude of the frequency shift of relevant bands. 136 The activation energy and enthalpy of water desorption are expected to be high because of these strong hydrogen bonds between the host species and nylon. …”

“…It is shown that the broad band at 3301.81 cm -1 , usually assigned to the N-H bending vibration in primary amine. The two bands at 2930.31 and 2861.84 cm -1 are assigned to the CH stretching of the ethylene sequence 26 . Moreover, the absorbance at 1645.95 cm -1 related to C=O amide I stretch and the combination absorbance of the N-H and C-N amide II stretch at 1551.45 cm -1 are clearly observed 27 .…”
