Effects of Blend Ratio on Rheology, Morphology, Mechanical and Oil-Resistant Properties in Chlorinated Polyethylene Rubber and Copolyamide Blends

Key Words:chlorinated polyethylene (CPE); copolyamide; mechanical properties; morphology; oil resistance
Abstract:The elastomeric chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) blended with a low melting point copolyamide (PA6/PA66/PA1010, PA) was prepared by a melt mixing technique. The mixing characteristics of the blends were analyzed from the rheographs. The influence of copolyamide (PA) content on the morphology, mechanical properties, crystallization and oil-resistance, and the addition of compatibilizers on the mechanical properties were also systematically investigated. Morphological examinations clearly revealed a two-phase system in which CPE/PA blends exhibit a cocontinuous morphology for 50/50 composition, and the continuous phase of PA turns into a disperse phase for 70/30, 80/20, and 90/10. There is a distinct interface between the two phases. The mechanical properties, crystallization, and oil-resistance have a strong dependence on the amount of PA. The blends with higher proportions of PA have superior mechanical properties; they are explained on the basis of the morphology of the blend and the cystallinity of PA. In addition, compatibilizers, including chlorinated polyethylene-graft-copolyamide (CPE-G-PA), chlorinated polyethylene-graft-maleic anhydride (CPE-G-MAH), ethylene-n-butyl acrylate-monoxide (EnBACO), and ethylene-n-butyl acrylate-monoxide-graft-maleic anhydride (EnBACO-g-MAH) were added into the blends. Tensile strength and elongation at break go through a maximum value at a compatibilizer resin content (on the basis of the total mass of the blend) of 20 wt% while the PA content is 30 wt%.
