Parallel Dynamic Thermomechanical Measurements of Polymer Libraries

Abstract: Summary: A common bottleneck in combinatorial materials science occurs at the characterization stage. Here we discuss an instrument for the rapid measurement of mechanical properties of polymer libraries, which allows for 96 simultaneous measurements to be taken under a variety of conditions. For example, plateau moduli and glass transition temperatures can be measured by ramping temperature while applying a deformation at a constant amplitude and frequency, much like a conventional DMTA.magnified image

“…A combined system of a nanoindenter with dynamic force modulation AFM capability may be the best choice overall for combinatorial modulus measurements due to the robustness, accuracy, speed, and applicability (both bulk diffusion multiples and thin films). Other faster methods for modulus measurements [125,126] only have very niche applications.…”

“…[327] Force sensors record the forces applied oscillatorily by a pin array as a function of time, environmental conditions, and motion of the translation. This method allows the determination of the modulus and loss tangent of the samples as a function of time or temperature.…”

“…Kossuth et al [85] measured the complex modulus of elasticity and the loss tangent for 96 samples with the ''standard'' HTE format (8 Â 12 samples, spaced 9 mm apart) in parallel. Polystyrene-block-polybutadiene-block-polystyrene was deposited on a polyimide substrate, and on each spot a pin imposed a displacement oscillation while the force was measured.…”
