A novel fluorinated diamine monomer, 1,4-bis[4-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]cyclohexane, was synthesized via two steps using 2-chloro-5-nitrobenzotri?uoride and 1,4-cyclohexanediol as the starting materials, which was subsequently employed to prepare a series of fluorinated aromatic polyamides with various aromatic acids, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, 4,4'-oxydibenzoic acid, and 2,2-bis(4-carboxy-phenyl)hexa?uoropropane. The inherent viscosities of the resulted polyamides were in range of 0.89~1.29 dL/g, and they exhibited excellent solubility and optical property. They could be readily dissolved in not only strong polar solvents such as N-methy-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, and N,N-dimethylformamide, but also in some low-boiling-point solvents such as tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, and dichloromethane. The film prepared from these polyamides was colorless and transparent, with a UV-vis absorption edge between 335 nm and 357 nm. Furthermore, the polyamides also showed good thermal properties. The temperature of 10 % weight loss was 330~364 °C under nitrogen atmosphere. The glass-transition temperatures (Tgs) were in the range of 202~223 °C.

In this paper, the dielectric property of PC and PE-LD melts were studied. For PC melt between 220 and 320 ℃, increasing temperature increased considerably the 10Hz dielectric constant, but marginally affect the values between 100 Hz and 1 000 Hz. For PE-LD melt between 120 and 300 ℃, the 10Hz dielectric constant first increased, then decreased and finally increased again, When the frequency was 1 000 Hz, the temperature had little influence on its dielectric constant. At low frequency zone, the dielectric constants of both melts decreased with increasing frequency.

The mechanical, friction and wear properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites filled with nanometer AlN, Si3N4, and TiN were studied. It was found that the nano-particle increased the hardness and wear resistance of PTFE but decreased the tensile and impact strengths of the composites. The tensile fracture surface was observed using scanning electron microscope (SEM), which showed that nano-TiN was finely dispersed in the PTFE matrix, however, nano-AlN and Si3N4 could not be well dispersed.

The tribological behavior and corrosion resistance of glass fibers (GF) and carbon fibers (CF) filled PTFE in both dry condition and sulfuric acid were investigated. In sulfuric acid, the optimal content of fillers was 15 wt %, which resulted in the wear resistance of PTFE/GF and PTFE/CF composites increased 7.7 and 4.4 times based on neat PTFE, respectively. When the filler content was higher than 15 wt %, furrow and abrasive wear constituted the main mechanisms for PTFE composites. Owing to the cooling and lubricating effects of acid media, the friction coefficient of PTFE composites decreased more obvious than that in dry condition. However, the acid inhibited the formation of transfer film on the counterpart.

Based on the orthogonal experimental method, micro-injection molding processes of micro-connector with various processing parameters were studied. The weight of micro plastic part was selected as the experimental indicator. Six processing parameters, mold temperature, melt temperature, injection velocity, packing pressure, packing time, and cooling time were taken as influencing factors. The order in importance of the influencing factors was determined through range analysis (RS). The mold temperature was the most important process parameter, and the cooling time was the least important process parameter. According to the change trends of factors and levels, the optimized process parameter scheme was mold temperature 80 ℃, melt temperature 335 ℃, injection velocity 100 mm/s, packing pressure 20 MPa, packing time 1.5 s, and cooling time 3.0 s, which could be taken as a reference in the process design of micro plastic parts.

A novel phosphorouse-nitrogen structure containing intumescent flame retardant poly(3,9-dichloro-2,4,8,10-tetraoxa-3,9-diphosphaspiro-[5.5] undecane-3,9-dioxide) hexamethylene diamine (SPHD) was prepared by 3,9-dichloro-2,4,8,10-tetraoxa-3,9-diphosphaspiro-[5.5] undecane-3,9-dioxide ( SPDPC ) and hexamethylene diamine (HD) through melting ploymerization in N2. The effects of ratio of material and reaction temperature on relative molecular weight were studied by intrinsic viscosity test. The results showed that the highest yield was 84 %, and the optimal reaction conditions were as follows: polymerization time, the molar ratio of SPDPC to hexamethylene diamine, reaction temperature were about 4 hours, 1/1.1, 165 ℃, respectively. The molecular structure and thermal stability of SPHD were characterized by FT-IR,1H-NMR and TG, separately. Results showed that the products could be obtained successfully by melt polymerization, which had good thermal stability. The flame retardancy of SPHD was studied when used in PE-LD with addition of ammonium polyphosphate (APP), when the content of SPHD was 15 %, the limiting oxygen index(LOI) value was 27.2 %and V-0 rating of UL94 could be achieved.

Ammonium polyphosphate (APP) was encapsulated with melamine formaldehyde resin (MF) forming capsules (MAPP). When the mass ratio of APP/MF was 3/1, the solubility of the capsules in water at 50 ℃ was 0.052 g/100 mL, reduced 78 % compared to APP; the intumescent degree reached 78.6 ㎝3/g. The MAPP capsules was introduced into polypropylene as an intumescent flame retardant. The thermal analysis indicated that the degradation of PP/MAPP was more rapidly with reduced heat release compared to neat APP. Due to the formation of porous carbon layers, the flame retardancy of MAPP/PP was better than that of PP/APP. When the mass ratio of PP/MAPP was 70/30, its oxygen index reached 30.6 %.

Numerical simulation was performed on polymer melt in the mixing section of two-rotor continuous mixer using POLYFLOW software. The flow field characteristics experienced by the materials was statistically analyzed using particle tracking analysis (PTA) method. The average shear rate, resident time distribution (RTD), and cumulative max-stretch-rate distribution were obtained, which were used to describe the influences of structure of rotors and technological parameters on the mixing performance of the mixer. It was found that the shearing and stretching actions that materials subjected to increased with increasing rotor speed; the specific shear rate in unit resident time of the materials in the mixing section decreased with increasing feeding rate; the shearing action increased with decreasing length of rotor convergence section. The length of rotor convergence section and the angle of rotor had little influence on resident time distribution. The results of numerical simulation agreed well with the data.
