Reactive Compatibilization of Multi-Hydroxy Functional Compound Based on Polyoxymethylene/Thermoplastic Polyether Elastomer Blends

Investigation on the mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of polyoxymethylene composites modified by thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer and carbon fiber

“…The test specimens were made into small pieces of films by using melt-pressing method operated on the thermal platform. 31,32…”

“…Many toughened polyoxymethylene materials modified by different elastomers have been reported in many literatures. For example, these elastomers could be acrylate elastome (ACE), 13,20,21 poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO), [22][23][24] acrylonitrile butadiene styrene resin (ABS), 25,26 acrylonitrile butadiene elastomer (NBR), 27 thermoplastic polyamide elastomer (TPAE), 28,29 thermoplastic polyester elastomer (TPEE), [30][31][32] polyolefin elastomer (POE), 33,34 thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) [35][36][37] and so on. Among these materials, thermoplastic polyurethane is the most widely used one, because the soft segment of polyurethane has good toughness and the hard segment is compatible with POM.…”

A polarized light microscope (PLM) (ZEISS Scope.A1, Germany), equipped with a Linkam LTS 420 hot stage (Linkam Scientific Instruments Ltd, Tadworth, UK) was used to study the crystallization process of the POM/TPAE blends.…”
