Abstract
|
Glass transitions, melting, crystallization, and the isotropization of polymers are connected with changes in the density, respectively the specific volume (Vsp), which can be analyzed by dilatometric methods. Here, the pressure dependence of such transitions is determined by pressure volume temperature (pVT) analysis for different thermoplastic polymers in the pressure range of 10 to 200 MPa, and the temperature range from room temperature to 350 °C. The values for ambient pressure are extrapolated. It is shown that polymer transitions always increase with pressure, and that the melting temperature and glass transition temperature are nearly linearly dependent on pressure. This information, as well as the observed density changes with pressure and temperature, is very important for the processing of thermoplastics, including their simulation, as well as for the thermodynamic interpretations of the transition’s nature.
