Abstract:Stable, cross-linked, liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) films for membrane separation applications have been fabricated from the mesogenic monomer 11-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4′-yloxy) undecyl methacrylate (CNBPh), non-mesogenic monomer 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (2-EHA), and cross-linker ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) using an in-situ free radical polymerization technique with UV initiation. The phase behavior of the LCP membranes was characterized using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray scattering,… Show more
“…11 Based on our previous work, there is still some focus worth further study, such as temperature, which is an important factor that affects the microstructures and macroscopic properties, especially for some high-polarity materials. 14,15 Many studies have indicated that the effect of temperature on cavity size, 16 hysteresis, 17 conductivity, 18,19 dielectric properties, 20 straininduced crystallization 21,22 and mechanical properties 23,24 of rubbers and their composites is nonnegligible. Many properties of materials containing a large number of hydrogen bonds show more obvious temperature dependence, which results from the high temperature sensitivity of hydrogen bonds.…”
Temperature dependence of the interface between silica and styrene butadiene rubber modified by 3-mercaptopropionic acid was investigated by molecular dynamics simulation.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
