Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy for miscibility investigations of styrene–butadiene–styrene copolymer/polystyrene blends

Abstract: The free volume parameters of styrene-butadiene-styrene copolymer/polystyrene (SBS/PS) blends were investigated with positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) in this study. The behaviors of free volume distribution, average free volume, and relative fractional free volume revealed the difference of interfacial miscibility. Based on different models, inter-chain interaction parameter b, geometric factor g, and hydrodynamic interaction parameter a obtained from free volume data were employed to further… Show more

“…Differences observed in two PAL measurements (for pure polymer, described in ref [11] and J-PET scintillator) are possible due to the doping of the polymer; even small impurity may significantly affect the organization of molecules and it can also shift the glass transition point (Tg). That supposition seems to be confirmed by the results of investigation done in polypropylene copolymers and blends [8], where additional structural transition is observed. The existence of additional structural transitions may also result from the formation of small crystalline regions in the amorphous structure.…”

“…This substance was used for the first time for this purpose [17,18]. A pure polystyrene, because of the possible applications, was widely investigated using many techniques including PALS [8,11,12]. Previous papers indicate that ortho-positronium (o-Ps) intensity is unstable and depends on the thermal history of the sample.…”

“…[11] SBS modifier swells by absorbing the light components in the base asphalt to form a network structure. [12,13] Currently, there is still no professional technology to remove SBS modifiers from modified asphalt, which can only indirectly reflect SBS content from its physical properties. [14] Therefore, developing a method for rapid detection of SBS content is critical.…”

“…As one kind of the most commonly used binders, fluoropolymer has the advantages of good physical and chemical stability,e xcellent aging resistance and heat resistance, and great compatibility with other components in composite explosives [29][30][31].C ompared with general hydrocarbons, the high density of fluoropolymer brings on the enhancement of the density and performance for PBX. On the other hand, styrene copolymer is an engineering thermoplastic with high impact, high transparency and rigidity,g ood heat stability,a nd mechanical properties, and it is widely applied in automobile, electrical equipments, mechanical parts, as well as packing containers [32,33].T he blending of fluoropolymer and styrene copolymer provides an effective way to make full use of their respective advantages.…”
