Abstract

We have obtained mechanical strength of materials as a result not by synthesizing new polymers, but by using industrial polymers. We have developed a technology for obtaining new composite materials based on industrial multi-tonnage polymers of high-strength polyethylene (HSPE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane thermoplastic elastomer (DUTEP), butyl rubber (BR), chlorocarboxylate polyethylene (CCPE), ethylene propylene rubber (EPR). To obtain a composition from these polymers, their mixture compatibility was first determined using the most modern methods. Thermodynamic compatibility of the butyl rubber–polyethylene (BR–LDPE), polyvinyl chloride, HSPE, polyurethane thermoplastic elastomer, PVC-chlorocarboxylate polyethylene (CPE), (CREP–VC) systems was studied using inverse gas chromatography methods, and structural features of these systems were revealed using IR spectroscopy and polarization microscopy. The study demonstrated that the incorporation of polyfunctional groups, such as chlorine, hydroxyl, and carboxyl, markedly influences the compatibility mechanism. These groups provide a broad range of enhanced properties – including improved adhesive performance, higher tensile and tear strength, and greater resistance to thermal and chemical degradation – primarily due to intermolecular polar interactions among macromolecules. The solubility parameters of four polymers with varying degrees of polarity were evaluated using turbidimetric titration (TDT) and inverse gas chromatography techniques. Based on the temperature dependence of the solubility parameter derived from the retention times of sorbents, the solubility parameter value at 25°C was calculated and subsequently compared with the value obtained by the TDT method at the same temperature. It was observed that the discrepancy between the solubility parameter values determined by the two methods increased with increasing polymer polarity. This phenomenon is attributed to the fundamentally contrasting states of the investigated polymer–solvent systems.
