The effect of electron beam (e-beam) irradiation on the thermal and mechanical properties of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer/ternary polyamide (EVA/tPA) blends was studied. The e-beam irradiation was carried out over a range of dose from 50 kGy to 500 kGy with trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) and triallyl isocyanurate (TAIC) as cross-linking coagents. With increasing irradiation dose, the gel fraction of the EVA/tPA blends increased significantly. After irradiated by e-beam at 500 kGy, the insoluble fraction of EVA/tPA blends with 3 parts per hundred rubber TMPTMA increased from 28% to 86%. The tensile strength of EVA/tPA/TMPTMA-3 (70/30/3) considerably increased up to 172% with a value of 10.01 MPa at 500 kGy due to an increase in cross-linking compared to the EVA/tPA/TAIC-3 (70/30/3) blend. However, the melting temperature and crystallization peak temperature of EVA/tPA blends decreased with increasing irradiation dose. Thermogravimetric analysis demonstrated that the irradiation cross-linking could improve the thermal stability of the EVA/tPA blends. The degradation kinetics of the EVA/tPA blends at elevated temperatures were studied using the Kissinger, Flynn–Wall–Ozawa, and Friedman methods. Irradiation cross-linked EVA/tPA blends exhibited a remarkable improvement in their oil resistance, with the identified improvement being most prominent in the EVA/tPA/TMPTMA-3 blend.

Intrinsic Correlation

The microcapsule nanoparticles were prepared by in-situ copolymerization of hydrotalcites (MAH) with the polymer (MF, PF, PS and PU) monomers, respectively, where the MF-wrapped MAH (MAH@MF) had the best monodispersity. The composites of the microcapsules and EVA were prepared by incorporating the microcapsule nanoparticles into ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), respectively. To further understand the intrinsic correlation between microcapsule fillers and EVA matrix, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was introduced to qualitatively analyze the contribution of microcapsule fillers on improving compatibility and mechanical properties of the EVA matrix. The compatibility of microcapsule nanoparticles with EVA matrix were detected in sequence through SEM, DSC and tensile strength tests. And the combustion, thermal behavior and flame retardance were also characterized by TG analyses as well as LOI and UL-94 level. As a result, the MAH@MF filler had the best performances in improving the flame retardancy and mechanical properties among the microcapsule fillers, attributed to high compatibility of the MAH@MF and EVA matrix, which made uniform distribution of the MAH@MF filler due to the reciprocity of triazine functional ring with vinyl acetate linkages.

This research is devoted to the actual problem of the development of damping polymer materials which are effective in a wide range of temperatures and having satisfactory strength characteristics. There are many works devoted to the study of dynamic mechanical properties of filled composites, but most do not take into account the influence of plasticizer on the strength properties of the polymer, as they change its characteristics for the worse. In this respect, the study and comparison of the mechanical properties of the polymer base with the introduction of different types and concentrations of plasticizers is an urgent task. According to the received regularities it was possible to define the type, concentration and boundaries of the polarity of the plasticizer, which reduces the strength characteristics of ethylene-vinyl acetate to a lesser degree.
