Mechanical spectroscopy is a powerful tool for the investigation of molecular dynamics of amorphous polymers over a large temperature range and frequency scale. In this work, by using high precision shear mechanical spectroscopy tool, we have investigated the segmental dynamics from local segmental relaxation to sub-Rouse modes in a series of amorphous polymers. We have demonstrated the existence of sub-Rouse modes slower than the local segmental motion in amorphous polymers. The sub-Rouse modes exhibit a similar change of dynamics at the same temperature TB ~1.2 Tg, as the local segmental relaxation through the temperature dependence of relaxation time and relaxation strength. Furthermore, the crossover relaxation time of the sub-Rouse modes at TB is almost the same for all the polymers investigated, i.e. τα'(TB) = 10-1±0.5 s, which is independent of molecular weight and molecular structure. This remarkable finding indicates that solely the time scale of the relaxation determines the change in dynamics of the sub-Rouse modes. According to the coupling model, the crossover is suggested to be caused by the onset of strong intermolecular cooperativity below TB. Hence the results suggest that the sub-Rouse modes and their properties are generally found in amorphous polymers by mechanical spectroscopy, and reveal the cooperative nature of the sub-Rouse modes.

ABSTRACTFrom the Raman spectra and related inferences from low temperature specific heat data, Sokolov and coworkers have established that the ratio of the quasielastic and vibrational contributions at low temperatures (5∼10K) up to Tg correlates well with the degree of fragility and β of the glass-former. As pointed out by Sokolov (see his contribution in this Volume) such a correlation between the fast dynamics and structural a-relaxation at Tg(i.e., m and β) is intriguing, since at and below Tg, the α-relaxation time τα is more than twelve orders of magnitude longer than the quasielastic contribution and the boson peak. We show in this paper how the Coupling Model (CM) may provide an explanation for this correlation.
