Diffusion energies of oxygen diffusing into polystyrene (PS)/poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) composites
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012)Diffusion coefficient of oxygen penetrating into polystyrene (PS) latex/poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgel composite films were measured using Fluorescence technique. Three different (5 15 and 40wt%) PS content films were prepared from PS/PNIPAM mixtures. Diffusivity of PS/PNIPAM composite films were studied by diffusion measurements which were performed over the temperature range of 24-70 degrees C. Pyrene was used as the fluorescent probe. The diffusion coefficients (D) of oxygen ...

Fluorescence Study of Film Formation from PS Latex-TiO2 Composites: Effects of TiO2 Content Film Thickness and Particle Size
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Amer Scientific Publishers, 2015)Steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique in conjunction with UV-visible (UVV) technique atomic force microscope (AFM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used for studying film formation from TiO2 covered polystyrene (PS) latex particles. The effects of TiO2 content film thickness and PS particle size on film formation and structure properties of PS/TiO2 composites are studied. For this purpose in the first part two different sets of PS films with thicknesses of 5 and 20 mu m were prepared ...

Oxygen Diffusion into Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Doped Polystrene Latex Films Using Fluorescence Technique
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2013)This study examines the oxygen diffusion into polystyrene (PS) latex/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) nanocomposite films (PS/MWNT) consisting of various amounts of MWNT via steady state fluorescence technique (SSF). PS/MWNT films were prepared from the mixture of MWNT and pyrene (P)-labeled PS latexes at various compositions at room temperature. These films were then annealed at 170 A degrees C above glass transition (T-g) temperature of PS. Fluorescence quenching measurements were performed ...

Spectroscopic study of film formation from polystyrene latex/TiO2 nanocomposites prepared by dip-coating method
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)In this study we investigated the influence of TiO2 content and thickness of polystyrene (PS) template on film-formation behavior of PS/TiO2 composites using fluorescence and ultraviolet-visible techniques in conjunction with scanning electron microscopy. Films were prepared by coating PS templates with various layers of TiO2 using dip-coating method. The results showed that PS latexes present complete film formation on top surface of composites. After extraction of PS a well-defined interconnected ...

The effect of film thickness and TiO2 content on film formation from PS/TiO2 nanocomposites prepared by dip-coating method
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)Steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique in conjunction with UV-visible (UVV) technique and atomic force microscope (AFM) was used for studying film formation from TiO2 covered nanosized polystyrene (PS) latex particles (320 nm). The effects of film thickness and TiO2 content on the film formation and structure properties of PS/TiO2 composites were studied. For this purpose two different sets of PS films with thicknesses of 5 and 20 mu m were prepared from pyrene-(P-) labeled PS particles and ...
