  • Assessment of Styrene Emission Controls for FRP/C
    Assessment of Styrene Emission Controls for FRP/C and Boat Building Industries FINAL REPORT by: Emery J. Kong, Mark A. Bahner, and Sonji L. Turner Research Triangle Institute P.O. Box 12194 Research Triangle Park, NC 27709 EPA Contract 68-D1-0118, W.A. 156 EPA Project Officer: Norman Kaplan Air Pollution Prevention and Control Division National Risk Management Research Laboratory U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Research Triangle Park, NC 27711 Prepared for U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Research and Development Washington, D.C. 20460 Abstract Styrene emissions from open molding processes in fiberglass-reinforced plastics/composites (FRP/C) and fiberglass boat building facilities are typically diluted by general ventilation to ensure that worker exposures do not exceed Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards. This practice tends to increase the potential cost to the facility of add-on controls. Furthermore, add-on styrene emission controls are currently not generally mandated by regulations. Therefore, emission controls are infrequently used in these industries at present. To provide technical and cost information to companies that might choose emission controls to reduce styrene emissions, several conventional and novel emission control technologies that have been used to treat styrene emissions in the United States and abroad and a few emerging technologies were examined. Control costs for these conventional and novel technologies were developed and compared for three hypothetical plant sizes. The results of this cost analysis indicate that increasing styrene concentration (i.e., lowering flow rate) of the exhaust streams can significantly reduce cost per ton of styrene removed for all technologies examined, because capital and operating costs increase with increasing flow rate.

Cheng, Ph.D. Faculty Reader Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Mark Soucek Dr. George R. Newkome, Ph.D. Date i ABSTRACT Surface modification is an important process for many applications. It has been found that an ultrathin polymer film can be generated on silicon substrates with a native oxide layer by spin-coating, thermally annealing, and washing films of thiol terminated polystyrene (PS-SH) or anionically polymerized polystyrene (PS). This is a useful modification technique as it requires little pretreatment of the substrate or specialized polymerization chemistry for the case of PS films. These ultrathin films were characterized using contact angle (CA), x-ray reflection (XR), and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Experimental results indicated that a thin polymer film formed characteristic of the grafted polymer for both PS-SH and PS due to the physical adsorption of the PS chains. It is suggested that the benzene rings of polystyrene all share a bond with the silicon surface creating a relatively overall strong bond from the polymer to the silicon wafer.

  • Probing the Formation and Degradation of Chemical Interactions from Model Molecule/Metal Oxide to Buried Polymer/Metal Oxide Interfaces
    www.nature.com/npjmatdeg REVIEW ARTICLE OPEN Probing the formation and degradation of chemical interactions from model molecule/metal oxide to buried polymer/metal oxide interfaces Sven Pletincx 1, Laura Lynn I. Fockaert2, Johannes M. C. Mol 2, Tom Hauffman1 and Herman Terryn1 The mechanisms governing coating/metal oxide delamination are not fully understood, although adhesive interactions at the interface are considered to be an important prerequisite for excellent durability. This review aims to better understand the formation and degradation of these interactions. Developments in adhesion science made it clear that physical and chemical interfacial interactions are key factors in hybrid structure durability. However, it is very challenging to get information directly from the hidden solid/solid interface. This review highlights approaches that allow the (in situ) investigation of the formation and degradation of molecular interactions at the interface under (near-)realistic conditions. Over time, hybrid interfaces tend to degrade when exposed to environmental conditions. The culprits are predominantly water, oxygen, and ion diffusion resulting in bond breakage due to changing acid–base properties or leading to the onset of corrosive de-adhesion processes. Therefore, a thorough understanding on local bond interactions is required, which will lead to a prolonged durability of hybrid systems under realistic environments. npj Materials Degradation (2019) 3:23 ; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41529-019-0085-2 INTRODUCTION required to obtain local and buried chemical information. The One of the most common methods to protect engineering metals adsorption theory of adhesion states that two phases stick due to against corrosion is by the application of an organic overlay.

Received: 25 May 2020; Accepted: 25 June 2020; Published: 28 June 2020 Abstract: Classical molecular dynamics simulations of polyacrylamide (PAM) adsorption on cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) in a vacuum and a water environment are carried out to interpret the mechanism of the polymer interactions with CNC. The structural behavior of PAM is studied in terms of the radius of gyration, atom–atom radial distribution functions, and number of hydrogen bonds. The structural and dynamical characteristics of the polymer adsorption are investigated. It is established that in water the polymer macromolecules are mainly adsorbed in the form of a coil onto the CNC facets. It is found out that water and PAM sorption on CNC is a competitive process, and water weakens the interaction between the polymer and CNC. Keywords: cellulose nanocrystals; polyacrylamide; adsorption; molecular dynamics 1. Introduction Polymer nanocomposites are materials that consist of polymer matrices and nanofillers distributed in them. The most important factor for achieving the enhancement of the bulk physical (transport, thermal, mechanical) properties of nanocomposites is interfacial interactions between the polymer macromolecules and the nanofiller particles. A large number of nanofillers with a variety of polymer matrices have been used to achieve the enhancement of useful properties.

Cellulose fibers/cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) are biobased and biodegradable sustainable alternatives. In addition, they combine low weight with high strength; making them suitable to, for example, reinforce composites. However, to be able to use them as such, a modification is often necessary. This study therefore aimed at modifying cellulose fibers, model surfaces of cellulose and CNF. Cellulose fibers and CNF were thereafter incorporated into composite materials and evaluated. Surface-initiated ring-opening polymerization (SI-ROP) was performed to graft ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) from cellulose fibers. From these fibers, paper-sheet biocomposites were produced that could form laminate structures without the need for any addition of matrix polymer. By combining ROP and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), diblock copolymers of poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) and PCL were prepared. Quaternized (cationic) PDMAEMA, allowed physical adsorption of block copolymers onto anionic surfaces, and, thereby, alteration of surface energy and adhesion to a potential matrix.

Received: 8 September 2018; Accepted: 8 October 2018; Published: 14 October 2018 Abstract: Polymer flooding is an important enhanced oil recovery technology introduced in field projects since the late 1960s. The key to a successful polymer flood project depends upon proper estimation of polymer retention. The aims of this paper are twofold. First, to show the mechanism of polymer flooding and how this mechanism is affected by polymer retention. Based on the literature, the mobility ratio significantly increases as a result of the interactions between the injected polymer molecules and the reservoir rock. Secondly, to provide a better understanding of the polymer retention, we discussed polymer retention types, mechanisms, factors promoting or inhibiting polymer retention, methods and modeling techniques used for estimating polymer retention. Keywords: polymer flooding; polymer retention; mobility ratio 1. Introduction Implementing enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques has become more significant to recover more hydrocarbons, with the continuation of exploration and development of new oil reserves. Vladimir et al. indicated that the lifetime of a reservoir mostly consists of three phases [1]: primary recovery as oil is extracted by naturally driven mechanisms, secondary recovery with reservoir pressure maintaining techniques through water and gas injection, and enhanced oil recovery often called tertiary recovery with a wide range of advanced technologies [2].

Hydrophobic interactions are concluded as being a predominant factor in adsorption of nonionic polymer [polyalkylene glycols (PAGs) and co-polymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide (Pluronic)] on 15 textile-relevant surfaces.

The adsorption of nonionic block copolymers on highly hydrophobic surfaces[4, 9, 10] and highly hydrophilic surfaces3 and the influence factors such as architectures of polymer,[6] temperature[5, 11] and salt[12] on adsorption were investigated extensively.
