Rheological Behavior of Poly(m-phenyleneisophthalamide) in Ionic Liquid

摘要

The rheological behavior of poly(m-phenyleneisophthalamide) (PMIA) in 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl, ionic liquid) has been investigated. The polymer in the concentration range investigated exhibits very different behavior between [Bmim]Cl and DMAc/LiCl solvent. Unlike in DMAc/LiCl solvent, PMIA/[Bmim]Cl solution exhibits maxima in apparent viscosity-concentration plots in the range studied. The complex viscosity-frequency behavior of the PMIA/[Bmim]Cl solutions is similar to that steady-state rheological behavior. The different rheological behavior shows the interaction between macromolecule and IL which leading the supermolecular aggregates in PMIA/[Bmim]Cl solution.
