ABSTRACTIn this paper, we describe unique thermally responsive polymer system based on nanotube-elastomers dispersed with core-shell expanding microspheres (phase-change material). Upon thermal or infrared stimuli, liquid hydrocarbon cores encapsulated within the microspheres vaporize, expanding the surrounding shells and stretching the matrix. Microsphere transformation resulted in visible dimensional changes associated with macroscopic volume increase (>500%), reduction in density (>80%), and increase in elastic modulus (>675%). Additionally, electrically conductive nanotubes allowed for expansion dependent electrical responses. We present our new findings on expansion dependent superhydrophobicity in these materials and present some outlook and comparison of our stimuli responsive polymers with other material systems for future origami based applications.

Nano-sized SiO2 particles grafted with hyperbranched aromatic polyamide were employed as fillers for fabricating epoxy based composites. The hyperbranched aromatic polyamide was selected because its terminal amine groups could take part in the curing reaction of epoxy resin and covalently connect silica nanoparticles with the matrix. The experimental results proved the occurrence of this reaction, and indicated that the presence of the grafted SiO2 in epoxy does not change the overall curing mechanism of epoxy. In comparison to the composites filled with untreated nano-SiO2 particles, the composites with the grafted nano-SiO2 exhibited significantly improved sliding wear resistance and reduced frictional coefficient owing to the strong filler/matrix interfacial bonding. Moreover, hyperbranched aromatic polyamide grafted nano-SiO2 was more effective to enhance tribological properties of epoxy than linear polymers grafted versions.

The epoxy resins were toughened with reactive core-shell nanoparticles(CSNPs) with butyl acrylate (BA) as the core and methyl methacrylate (MMA) copolymerizing with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) as the shell. The chemical structure of the CSNPs was characterized by FT-IR. The morphology of toughened epoxy networks were analyzed by SEM and TEM, and their adhesion properties were also detected. The results show that mixing methods and CSNP concentration have great influence on the morphology and adhesion properties of the toughened epoxy networks. CSNPs are uniformly dispersed in the epoxy resins by the grinding method. The modified epoxy networks obtained from the modified epoxy networks prepared by the grinding method(MEPN2) with 10 wt% CSNPs show the best adhesion properties, and the increase in maximum peel strength, 25°C sheer strength and 150°C sheer strength of the modified epoxy networks is 401.3% , 46.9% and 27.6% respectively over the unmodified epoxy networks due to the small-scale coagulations of CSNPs.

The cross-linking reactions of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulphone (DDS) with stoichiometric quantities of glycidyl ether- or tetraglycidyl amine-based epoxy resins were monitored using chemiluminescence (CL) and rheometry. It was found that, when a sample was cured isothermally in air, the CL profile increased to a maximum, then decreased again. The maximum was found to correspond well with the gel time (tgel), as measured by rheometry. This observation is discussed in relation to the chemical reactions occurring within the material and the physical state of the matrix. The effect of impurities in DDS on the gel time of these epoxy resins is reported.

Epoxy resin (EP) nanocomposites reinforced with different contents of core-shell structured Ni@NiO nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated by using a surface wetting method. The nanoindentation and nanoscratch properties of Ni@NiO/EP nanocomposites were comparatively studied based on nanoindentation technique. Results revealed that 5 wt.% content of Ni@NiO NPs was the optimal concentration for Ni@NiO/EP composites to obtain the best improvement of nanomechanical properties. In comparison with pristine EP, the highest enhancements of hardness and elastic modulus of 5 wt.% Ni@NiO/EP nanocomposites were increased by 37.8% and 16.3%, respectively.
