Abstract: |
Based on the active anionic polymerization method,styrene and butadiene as the copolymerized monomer,silicon tetrachloride as the coupling agent,by sequential loading method and star coupling method,the star styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymers(SBS) with different number average molecular weights(12.2~66.5 kg·mol-1) and compositions were designed and synthesised,their molecular weight distributions index(PDI) was in the range of 1.03~1.20,in addition,commerciallized linear SBS products with brands SBS-791,SBS-792,SBS-LG (with the number average molecular weights of 91.5~131.1 kg·mol-1 and the PDI of 1.07~1.39) were selected,the designed and synthesized Cholesterol-based liquid crystal monomer with the end of SiH was grafted onto polybutadiene block of the SBS,and the chololesterol-based liquid crystal functionalized SBS elastomers(SBS-LC) with similar structures and grafting densities and different molecular weights and compositions were prepared.The molecular weight and microstructure of the SBS and the SBS-LC were analyzed by gel permeation chromatograph and hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance instrument with four detectors,the liquid crystal texture and thermal properties of the SBS-LC were analyzed by polariztion microscope and differential scanning calorimeter,and the structure-activity relationship between structure and properties of the SBS-LC was established,which laid the basis for the design and application of the liquid crystal functional polymer materials. |
