l-iso-Hexene - Nature
Open Data Verified Data
TPX is the lowest density among all plastics to date, almost close to the theoretical limit of plastic density, with a relative density of only 0.83. TPX is an isotactic polymer with a relatively high crystallinity of about 40% to 65%. TPX has high transparency, refractive index of 1. 463, light transmittance of up to 90%, UV transmittance than glass and other transparent resin is more excellent; In the far infrared region of excellent optical properties. The permeability of TPX to water vapor and O2, N2 and other gases is 10 times that of PE, the equilibrium absorption rate is <0.05% (immersed in 20~60 ℃ water), and the water vapor transmission rate is log/m2 (38 ℃,90% RH), which may be caused by its low density structure.
- mechanical properties TPX has very high rigidity, the rigidity above 100 ℃ exceeds that of PP, the rigidity above 150 ℃ exceeds that of PC, and the notched impact strength of cantilever beam is larger than that of polyacrylate and PS, less than POM and nylon. The tensile creep properties of TPX are between PE and PP. The tensile yield strength of TPX is closely related to the strain rate and temperature. The higher the temperature, the lower the tensile yield strength. TPX had an elongation at break of 15% and a tensile modulus of 1448MPA at 20 °c. TPX was slowly burned and dripped, and the burning rate was 0.42cm/s.
- Thermal performance TPX has excellent thermal aging characteristics, with use time up to lOOh at 180 ℃, use time up to lOOOh at 150 ℃, and use up to 1 year at 125 ℃. The crystalline melting point of TPX is 235~240 ℃, the Vicat Softening Point is 179 ℃, the heat distortion temperature is 200 ℃ under 1. 86MPa stress, and the coefficient of linear expansion is 1-2 × lO-4 K-1. Thermal conductivity 1. 33 x lO-8W/(m.K). TPX was slowly burned and dripped, and the burning rate was 0.42cm/s.
- electrical properties TPX has excellent dielectric properties, and its electrical insulation is better than other polyolefins, which is comparable to PTFE and wire and cable grade PE. In a wide range of temperature and frequency, its dielectric constant remains stable, about 2. 12, dielectric loss tangent 0.00015, dielectric strength 28kV/mm, under the action of arc evaporation and carbonization.
- corrosion resistance TPX has good chemical corrosion resistance, and is similar to other Polyolefins. It is resistant to inorganic acids and bases even at 160 ° C., but is not resistant to oxidizing agents, aromatic hydrocarbons and Oxo hydrocarbons. The creep resistance of TPX is better than that of PP, and the environmental stress cracking resistance is similar to LDPE, and there is no tendency for other transparent plastics to crack due to detergent when used; No toxicity.
- The other TPX has poor resistance to ultraviolet radiation, is susceptible to degradation by oxidation and radiation, is yellow by heat, has low impact strength (normal temperature and low temperature), and has high air permeability, similar to PP. The above disadvantages can be compensated by copolymerization with other a-olefins and addition of additives. For outdoor applications, carbon black should be added as an ultraviolet absorber; The addition of 20% titanium dioxide can improve its thermal stability.
