This paper reports the precise analysis of the eutectic mixing behavior of 1,3-distearoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycerol (SOS) and trilaurin (LLL), as a typical model case of the mixture of cocoa butter (CB) and cocoa butter substitute (CBS). SOS was mixed with LLL at several mass fractions of LLL (wLLL); the mixtures obtained were analyzed for polymorphic phase behavior using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and synchrotron radiation X-ray diffractometry (SR-XRD). In melt crystallization with constant-rate cooling, SOS and LLL formed eutectics in their metastable polymorphs, allowing the occurrence of a compatible solid solution at wLLL ≥ 0.925. With subsequent heating, the resultant crystals transformed toward more stable polymorphs, then melted in a eutectic manner. For mixtures aged at 25 °C after melt crystallization, eutectics were found in the extended wLLL region, even at wLLL = 0.975. These results indicate that phase separation between SOS and LLL progressed in their solid solution under stabilization. The crystal growth of the separated SOS fraction may cause fat-bloom formation in compound chocolate containing CB and CBS. To solve this problem, the development of retardation techniques against phase separation is expected.

The lower critical solution temperature (LCST) phase behavior of poly(benzyl methacrylate) (PBnMA) in room-temperature ionic liquids (ILs) was studied by considering the effect of the chemical structure of ILs on the phase separation temperature (Tc). It was found that the LCST behavior of PBnMA was observed in ILs containing [NTf2] anions and PF6 anions. Tc changed significantly with a small change in the chemical structures of the cations. High-sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was successfully performed for studying the LCST phase separation of PBnMA in two different imidazolium-based ILs. Endothermic peaks corresponding to the phase separation of PBnMA from the ILs were clearly observed at ca. 100 °C in the DSC thermograms. It was experimentally verified for the first time that the negative enthalpy and entropy change of mixing of PBnMA in ILs caused the LCST phase separations. The absolute values of the thermodynamic parameters for the phase transition of PBnMA in ILs obtained in this study were much lower than those reported in previous studies for aqueous polymer solutions that exhibit LCST phase behavior, such as poly(N-isopropylarylamide) and poly(vinyl methyl ether). Small changes in the thermodynamic parameters resulted in a large change in the phase separation temperature even by small changes in the chemical structure of the ILs and polymers. The microscopic desolvation process detected from the DSC measurements was inferred to have occurred before the macroscopic phase separation detected from turbidity measurements. The dependence of the endothermic peak temperatures on the DSC scan rate was observed even at slow scan rates. These results indicate that the phase separation of PBnMA from ILs is characterized by extremely slow kinetics.

The article concerns the research specificity of model systems such as cocoa butter – palm olein, cocoa butter – sucrose and cocoa butter – glucose syrup by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. The researchers run experiments in the temperature range from –100 to –50°C at a heating rate of 10 °C/min. In the cacao butter – palm olein system an eutectic occurs with a palm olein content of 30.0 % indicating the limited solubility of palm olein in cocoa butter. In the cocoa butter – sucrose system, cocoa butter crystallizes as in the α-form (10,0– 30,0; 60.0–90.0 % MK), and as a mixture of α-and β-forms of MK (40.0; 50,0; 70,0 and 80.0 %). Sucrose stabilizes low-temperature polymorphic modifications of cocoa butter. In the cocoa butter – glucose syrup system, temperature of samples melting is 21-22 °C. This composition is promising for use as a filling of confectionery products and glazes production. In this regard, a man can use glucose syrup only in the candy cases production. The role of surfactants used for the formation and stabilization of cocoa butter polymorphs and increasing the thermal stability of the shock-lad without the introduction of palm stearin requires separate consideration.

Polyphenylene Oxide

Diallyl orthophthalate (DAOP) prepolymer was investigated as a reactive plasticizer to improve the processability of thermoplastics. The rheology of blends of DAOP prepolymer initiated by 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-diphenylbutane (DMDPB) and polyphenylene oxide (PPO) was monitored during the curing process, and their thermal properties and morphology in separated phases were also studied. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed that the cure degree of the reactively plasticized DAOP prepolymer was reduced with increasing PPO due to the dilution effect. The increasing amount of the DAOP prepolymer led to a gradual decrease in the viscosity of the blends and the rheology behavior was consistent with the chemical gelation of DAOP prepolymer in blends. This indicated that the addition of the DAOP prepolymer effectively improved processability. The phase separation occurring during curing of the blend and the transition from the static to dynamic mode significantly influences the development of the morphology of the blend corresponding to limited evolution of the conversion around the gel point.

Ultra High Molecular Weight

The effects of Modified NanoSiO2 Agents on the morphology and performance of ultra-high-molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) microporous membranes via thermally induced phase separation were investigated in this work. The NanoSiO2 was surface modified by silane coupling agent KH570 (KH570-NanoSiO2). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) were performed to obtain crystallization of UHMWPE/white oil/ KH570-NanoSiO2 doped system. The morphology and performance of the prepared UHMWPE microporous membranes were characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and microfiltration experiments. The results showed that the morphology of UHMWPE membrane could be disturbed by KH570-NanoSiO2. Porosity and the rejection of Bovine serum albumin (BSA) of the blend membrane increased with increasing concentration of Modified NanoSiO2, while the water flux slightly decreased.

Mg-Li-Al alloy was prepared by ingot casting and then underwent subsequent reactive ball milling. A Mg-Li-Al-H complex hydride was obtained under a 0.4 MPa hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature, and as high as 10.7 wt% hydrogen storage capacity was achieved, with the peak desorption temperature of the initial step at approximately 65 °C. The evolution of the reaction during milling, as well as the effect of Li/Al ratio in the raw materials on the desorption properties of the hydrides formed, were studied by x-ray diffraction and simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry techniques. The results showed that mechanical milling increases the solubility of Li in Mg, leading to the transformation of bcc β(Li) solid solution to hcp α(Mg) solid solution, the latter continues to incorporate Li and Al, which stimulates the formation of Mg-Li-Al-H hydride. A lower Li/Al ratio resulted in faster hydrogen desorption rate and a greater amount of hydrogen released at a low temperature range, but sacrificing total hydrogen storage capacity.

Sodium cholesteryl carbonate ester (SCC) was synthesized, and its phase behavior was studied. The chemical structure was assessed by solid-state infrared spectroscopy based on vibration analysis. The wave number at 1705 and 1276 cm−1 corresponds to a carbonyl carbonate and O–C–O stretching of SCC, respectively. Molecular structure of SCC was further investigated with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The chemical shift, for the carbonyl carbonate resonance appeared at 155.5 ppm. A molecular mass of SCC was at m/z of 452. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), video-enhanced microscopy (VEM) together with polarized light microscopy, and small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) were used to characterize the phase behavior as a function of temperature of SCC. Liquid crystalline phase was formed with SCC. Based on the thermal properties and x-ray diffraction, it appears that SCC forms a structure analogous to the type II monolayer structure observed with cholesterol esters.

Soft Segments

Thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) were synthetized with blends of poly(propylene glycol) (PPG) and poly(1,4-butylene adipate) (PAd) polyols, diphenylmethane-4,4′-diisocyanate (MDI) and 1,4-butanediol (BD) chain extender; different NCO/OH ratios were used. The structure and viscoelastic properties of the TPUs were assessed by infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, thermal gravimetric analysis and plate-plate rheology, and their pressure sensitive adhesion properties were assessed by probe tack and 180° peel tests. The incompatibility of the PPG and PAd soft segments and the segregation of the hard and soft segments determined the phase separation and the viscoelastic properties of the TPUs. On the other hand, the increase of the NCO/OH ratio improved the miscibility of the PPG and PAd soft segments and decreased the extent of phase separation. The temperatures of the cool crystallization and melting were lower and their enthalpies were higher in the TPU made with NCO/OH ratio of 1.20. The moduli of the TPUs increased by increasing the NCO/OH ratio, and the tack was higher by decreasing the NCO/OH ratio. In general, a good agreement between the predicted and experimental tack and 180° peel strength values was obtained, and the TPUs synthesized with PPG+PAd soft segments had potential application as pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs).
