Study on Thermal Properties and Crystallization Behavior of Blends of Poly(phenylene sulfide)/Poly(ether imide)

Morphology and thermal properties of novel poly(phenylene sulfide) hybrid nanocomposites based on single-walled carbon nanotubes and inorganic fullerene-like WS2nanoparticles

“…The result obtained for the highest concentration suggested that the addition of PEI caused no appreciable change in the T p of the reference sample incorporating 2.0 wt% of nonwrapped SWCNTs that remained at $246 C. This implies that the wrapping process cancels out the reported nucleating effect of PEI on PPS crystallization. 24 All these data suggest that neither SWCNTs nor SWCNT-PEI exert a nucleating effect on PPS in the nanocomposites. In particular, the presence of the SWCNT-PEI may in fact impede the diffusion and rearrangement of the long polymer chains due to the interaction between both components (i.e.…”

Effects of Carbon Fillers on Crystallization Properties and Thermal Conductivity of Poly(phenylene sulfide)

“…Poly(phenylene sulfide) is an engineering thermoplastic material with outstanding comprehensive performance, exhibiting high mechanical strength, good thermal stability, chemical resistance, and excellent electrical properties [7,[16][17][18] . Khan et al [19] investigated the effects of microsized and nanosized carbon fillers respectively on the thermal and electrical properties of PPS-based composites.…”

Microcellular foaming of poly(phenylene sulfide)/poly(ether sulfones) blends using supercritical carbon dioxide

“…However, PPS has a poor impact toughness due to the rigid backbone chain and high crystallinity, which significantly limits its uses in many applications . Blending with other toughened polymers such as poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK), polyamide 66 (PA66), poly(ether imide) (PEI), poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT), and ethylene copolymers is a very effective method to further improve the physical and mechanical properties, especially the impact toughness of PPS. Poly(ether sulfone) (PES) is an amorphous high‐performance engineering plastic with excellent thermal (high glass transition temperature) and mechanical (impact strength) properties.…”
