Additionally, we recently have reported ion - conducting copolymer systems in which judicious choice of taper geometry led to reductions in
block glass transition temperatures, which ultimately reduced barriers to ion - transport and enhanced conductivity.
There is a principle in polymer chemistry called the «time - temperature superposition,» which says that fibres with
low glass transition temperatures will also cope well with sudden dynamic loads — such as those that a parachute rope is subject to.»
These motions are constrained by localised forces in the molecular environment and, in contrast to the relatively large motions that happen above
the glass transition temperature, the molecular motions above the lower temperature threshold are much subtler.
Using a technique called dynamic mechanical analysis as well as terahertz spectroscopy, Zeitler and his colleagues showed that instead of
the glass transition temperature, the molecular motions occurring until a lower temperature threshold, are responsible for crystallisation.
In order to determine when and how solids will crystallise, most researchers had focused on
the glass transition temperature, which is the temperature above which molecules can move in the solid more freely and can be measured easily.
Another quality of spider silk is its «
glass transition temperature.»
Increased hydrodynamic radius (in solution) and
glass transition temperature (in bulk materials) were observed upon metallation with Zn2 +.
The study results revealed that the green tea powder» health benefits degrade at low temperatures, even lower than
the glass transition temperature.
The temperature that an amorphous solid is changed from a glassy, rigid state to a viscous, rubbery state is known as
the glass transition temperature.
Although tea powders degrade slower below
the glass transition temperature, they can still degrade.
It is amorphous with no specific melting point but the temperature when it changes to a liquid state (
glass transition temperature) is 105oC.
The glass transition temperature of PLA is 60 — 65oC.
The new polymer must fuse with the previous layer and there are two keys to this — the temperature of polymer being extruded and keeping the model as close to
the glass transition temperature as possible.
Stratasys were the first to market with an FDM machine and patented a heated chamber kept a few degrees below
the glass transition temperature of the polymer.
It is amorphous with no specific melting point but the temperature when it changes to a liquid state (
glass transition temperature) is 105 degree celsius.
