Popis: | Hugh Brown has shown that interfacial entanglements govern adhesion between two polymers. We demonstrate this for three systems by adding interfacial chains via chemical coupling. The adhesion between polypropylene (PP)/amorphous polyamide (aPA) was reinforced by the coupling reaction of maleic anhydride grafted PP (PP-g-MA) and the primary amine groups on aPA; huge increases in adhesion were observed. A good correlation between critical fracture toughness, G c , and PP-g-MA concentration squared follows Brown's crazing mechanism. For a polystyrene (PS)/aPA interface reinforced by the coupling reaction of poly(styrene-r-maleic anhydride) (PS-r-MA)/aPA only modest adhesion increases in G c were observed through the whole PS-r-MA concentration range. This different behavior of G c vs. functional polymer concentration is believed to be caused by segregation of the formed graft copolymers at the interface. The relationship between G c and the extent of coupling was studied quantitatively with a model PS/PMMA ... |
