Polymer characterization using thermomechanical analysis

Abstract: NEIT_SCH-GERATEBAU GMBH, WITI'ELSBACHERSrRASSE 42, W-8672 SELl3, ER.G.The purpose of the work was to characterize the thermomechanical behaviour of two well-known and widely-used thermoplastic polymers. Both dynamic and constant load measurements were made for high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and amorphous polystyrene (PS). The results of these measurements yield valuable information which can aid in both design applications and material processing.

“…The glass transition temperature (T g ), 5% weight loss temperature (T d5 ), and char yield which is defined as the mass percentage of the residue when heated to 550 °C were found to be >250 °C, 355 °C, and 21%, respectively. The remarkably high T g , compared to normal linear polystyrene, [19] supports the idea that a densely cross-linked network structure was successfully formed in the organic-inorganic hybrid polymer film by the heat treatment, which resulted in the high heat resistance.…”

“…Glass transitions can induce an increase in the expansion coefficient (Henderson and Emmerich 1991), a reduction of sample volume or increase of penetration (Keinath and Boyer 1981), and sample softening (Ng and Williams 1981) around the transition temperature. TMA is more sensitive to physicochemical transitions than DSC (O'Neal et al 1995) and thus could be used to detect WaMB transitions in mineral soil material, where DSC is not sensitive enough.…”

“…The printed pieces were analysed using DSC methods, in order to receive information on the influence of the hybrid heating on the printed material and on the surface characteristics. Thermal analysis is used as a tool to study the degradation, melting or crystallization of a polymer [14][15][16][17]. The results can offer relevant information regarding their evolution in specific conditions.…”
