Abstract
This article describes the test results of thermal properties and flammability of the unconventionally cross-linked blends of chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM) and butadiene–styrene rubber (SBR) by means of zinc oxide or nano-zinc oxide. The thermal curves have been interpreted from the point of view of the chemical transitions of elastomers and their blends. It has been found that the content of combined chlorine in CSM exerts a significant influence on the cross-linking kinetics of CSM/SBR blends, their thermal properties and flammability.

Data are presented on the properties of alkali metal and alkaline earth hydrofluorides. Melting, thermal decomposition and interaction of hydrofluorides with various classes of inorganic substances are discussed. Some regularities of changes in thermal properties within the sequences of the above hydrofluorides are established. Future directions of research in this field are outlined.
Thermal properties of polylactides
Effect of molecular mass and nature of lactide isomer
Abstract
A thermal analysis of a series of polylactides (PLA) was carried out based on the number of average molecular mass (M n), and the nature of isomer (D, L and DL). It is confirmed that the glass transition temperature (T g) of PLA increased as a function of molecular mass irrespective of isomer type except sample with a high polydispersity index. The melting temperature (T m) and enthalpy of crystal fusion (ΔH f) of L-isomer increased as the M n was increased from 1100 to 27500. The degree of crystallinity (χc%) increased as a function of molecular mass. However no crystallization peak was detected in the lower molecular mass range (550–1400). The non-isothermal crystallization behavior of the PLA melt was significantly influenced by the cooling rate. Both D and L isomers exhibited insignificant difference in thermal properties and DL lactides exhibited amorphous behavior at identical molecular masses. Change in microstructure showed significant difference between two isomers. Analysis of the FTIR spectra of these PLA samples in the range of 1200–1230 cm−1 supported DSC observation on crystallinity.
Abstract
Thermal properties of new biocomposites prepared from modified starch matrix reinforced with natural vegetable fibres were studied. DSC and TG methods were applied to study thermal behaviour of biocomposites. Biocomposites were obtained in the laboratory twin-screw extruder. Two kinds of natural fibres were used, i.e. flax and cellulose in the amount of 0–40 mass%. DSC curves of biocomposites reveal glass transition temperature, attributed to the amorphous nature of the plasticized starch matrix. In general, incorporating natural fibres into modified starch matrix leads to an increase in glass transition temperature. Thermal degradation of modified starch matrix and cellulose reinforced biocomposites proceeds in three steps, whereas the degradation process of flax reinforced biocomposites occurs in two steps. For unreinforced matrix as well as for all biocomposites, regardless of type and amount of reinforcement, the major mass loss is observed at the temperature above 300C. The increase in thermal stability with introduction of natural fibre is observed for both flax and cellulose reinforced biocomposites.
