heat resistance

The influence of additional thermal and thermomechanical treatment of PA6/MMT nanocomposites obtained from the formic acid solution on their heat resistance and technological properties was investigated. Thermal analysis established that heating the nanocomposite to a temperature of 250 ºС and treating it on a capillary plastometer IIRT at a temperature of 230 ºС increases the degree of crystallinity and heat resistance of the samples.

The technological parameters of the process and the design of the extrusion head for the manufacture of products such as “pipe” of polylactide composite materials by extrusion, its construction elements are calculated. Prototypes of a product made of biodegradable plastic were obtained.

The influence of the filler - talc, its content, additional heat treatment and temperature on the physical-mechanical and thermophysical properties of polylactide materials, in particular on the surface hardness, heat resistance according to Vick and thermomechanical characteristics has been studied. The influence of filler and temperature on the resistance of polylactide materials to the action of the aqueous medium is revealed. The diffusion coefficient of water in polylactide materials and the activation energy of the diffusion process were determined.

Polymeric materials are exposed to high temperatures that results in lowering of the film integrity. A blend of an epoxy resin with the silicone acrylate resin was developed to provide high heat resistance UV cured coatings. Earlier siliconized epoxy coatings had been developed by conventional curing. But due to environmental awareness, high productivity rate, low process costs and energy saving UV curable coatings are enjoying considerable growth.
