Abstract A number of isobutylene-based graft copolymers with different compositions are compared to several commercial thermoplastic block copolymers, such as SIS, SBS and SEBS, in terms of morphology and viscoelasticity. The backbone of these graft copolymers is a terpolymer (BIMS) of isobutylene, p-methylstyrene and p-bromomethylstyrene, and the side chains are either polystyrene or poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether). Graft copolymer synthesis, statistics of graft formation, and stress-strain properties are described. Overall, these graft copolymers exhibit unique shear dependent viscosity effects, such as rapid thickening (quick setting) at low shear and lower viscosity (better processability) at high shear, compared to linear triblock copolymers. The rheological behavior of these graft copolymers could be a key advantage for high-shear calendering, extrusion, hot-melt spraying, and injection molding.

The effects of a cationic polyelectrolyte, polyethylenimine, on the rheological behavior of aqueous mullite and celsian phase, barium strontium aluminosilicate (BSAS) suspensions have been studied to optimize a dip-coating process. The surface of the ceramic particles was characterized in aqueous media using zeta potential measurements. The ionization behavior and hydrodynamic radius of polyethylenimine in aqueous media was characterized by potentiometric titration and dynamic light scattering measurements, respectively. The rheological behavior of concentrated ceramic suspensions containing polyethylenimine was characterized by stress viscometry and elastic modulus measurements. Polyethylenimine imparts repulsive, electrosteric interactions between mullite and BSAS particles in aqueous suspension, resulting in shear thinning flow behavior, linear elastic moduli, and yield stress values that are minimized for suspensions with a critical PEI concentration of 0.2 mg PEI per m2 of mullite and 0.4 mg PEI per m2 of BSAS, respectively. The elastic moduli and yield stress of mullite and BSAS suspensions were nearly identical at equivalent fractions of their critical PEI concentration. Uniform coatings were obtained upon dipping SiC, Si3N4, and Si-metal substrates into shear-thinning suspensions containing PEI at 81–88% of the critical concentration. Dense mullite coatings were demonstrated on SiC substrates after sintering at 1400°C.
