Influence of polar groups in binary polymer blends on positronium formation
Abstract
The present work studied the role of the polar group unconjugated oxygen on the inhibition of positronium (Ps) formation in two binary blends made from a set of chosen constituent polymers with polar and weakly polar groups (nonpolar). The polymer blend samples of PVC-EVA and PVC-SAN were investigated by coincidence Doppler broadening and positron lifetime techniques. The strong polar acetate group in the EVA contributed to positron annihilation with electrons of unconjugated oxygen (-C+=O-) as revealed by the momentum distribution curves peaking around 17 PL (10 -3 m0c). The ortho-Ps intensity indicated the unconjugated oxygen shows about a 28% Ps reduction even in the presence of a strong Ps inhibiting halogen (Cl-). In contrast, this effect was not seen in the PVC-SAN blends since SAN contains a weakly polar (nonpolar) acrylonitrile group (C≡N). Our results indicate the chlorine of PVC in the blends is a major contributor to Ps inhibition through the formation of a (Cl --e+) bound state but the unconjugated oxygen in EVA of the PVC-EVA blend also plays a similar, but lesser, role. © 2013 American Physical Society.
