摘要
Thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) was used to investigate the relaxation in amorphous polymers including poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA) and its polyblend over a temperature range that covers the a-relaxation. Analysis of TSDC behavior revealed that PVC and PEMA are characterized with a broad peak located at the temperature maximum, T-m = 355 and 347 K, respectively. These peaks were positioned in the vicinity of the glass-transition temperature of each polymer, which are attributed to dipole-dipole interaction. Moreover, thermal sampling technique (TS) was used to resolve the complex TSDC behavior of all samples to obtain its elementary peaks characterized by a single relaxation time. The peak parameters characterizing the TS peaks have been estimated by using the iterative method. In addition, around each relaxation, compensation phenomena have been observed.
