Abstract
Previous chapters have illustrated that interactions between ionic groups located within, or pendant to, polymer chains strongly influence the morphological structure and properties for both polymer melts and solutions. These interactions are also observed to affect the bulk viscoelastic and mechanical properties of polymeric materials considered to be in the ‘solid’ state. Such materials include those that are below the melting temperature (for semicrystalline polymers) or glass transition temperature (for amorphous polymers) as well as materials above the glass transition temperature that are sufficiently ionically crosslinked to be considered elastomeric in terms of their mechanical response. The time-dependent properties, such as stress—relaxation, creep, and dynamic mechanical properties, are particularly sensitive to the strength of ionic associations which, in turn, are dependent upon the ionic species (e.g. sulfonate or carboxylate), the neutralizing cation, competing interactions with other portions of the polymer chain, etc. In addition to the effects of ionic interaction, phase behavior may also play a role in influencing the mechanical response. Phases in the system of interest may be in the glassy state, the glass transition region, or the rubbery region. If crystallinity is present, viscoelastic and mechanical properties will also be affected by the level of crystallinity and the crystalline morphology. For example, the crystalline phase may be either continuous or distributed so that the crystallites act somewhat as rigid filler particles.
