Abstract
|
Adhesion of immiscible polymers during two-component injection moulding may be improved by transreactions of properly functionalised components. We performed MC simulations based on the three-dimensional coarse-grained bond fluctuation model (BFM) including a thermal interaction potential in with energy to characterise the behaviour of several selected types of chemical reactions, which are governed by activation energies of EA = 0, 1, 3 and 5 kBT. The consumption of reactive monomers for all the reactions in the time interval below the Rouse time R exhibits a typical crossover from a kinetic-controlled to a diffusion-controlled behaviour and can be described by a bimolecular kinetic ansatz.
