Effect of Curing Poly(<i>p</i>-Phenylene Sulfide) on Thermal Properties and Crystalline Morphologies

Abstract: Commercial poly(p-phenylene sulfide) (PPS) was thermally cured, which resulted in an increase of molecular weight due to cross-linking. Non-isothermal crystallization studies of samples cured for up to 7 days at 250˚C showed a monotonous increase of crystallization temperature compared to pure PPS. However, a further increase of curing time decreased the crystallization temperature. The change in the half-crystallization time (t 1/2 ) was similar to the crystallization temperature. Thus, the cross-linking of P… Show more

“…It is observed that PPS without thermal oxidation treatment was completely dissolved in the solvent, while PPS after treatment had a gel content of 1.8% as shown in Table . This result demonstrates that an effective cross-linking structure could only be formed by a prolonged high-temperature treatment, and this result also verified that the oxidized functional groups formed even by melt processing in a short time. The obtained cross-linking structure then greatly improves the elasticity of the PPS melt and provides a prerequisite for the formation of stable bubbles in the subsequent foaming process.…”

“…DMA results showed a corresponding increase in the temperature location of the dissipation peak and a decrease in its amplitude when T α increased above 100°C. Similarly, Lee et al [21] investigated commercial PPS by thermal curing and they found an increase of molecular weight due to crosslinking. They concluded the crosslinking of PPS affected crystallization behaviors significantly.…”

“…This is because the linear or branched molecular structures of thermoplastics become more brittle during thermal aging [ 36 ]. Researchers attributed this to the cross-linking and crystallinity, which depended on the temperature and the exposure time, as reported by Zhang et al [ 37 ] and Lee et al [ 38 ]. Molecular chain scission, post-crosslinking, and crystallinity increment also occur in the GF/PPS composite samples during thermal aging [ 39 ].…”
