Positron Annihilation and Chemistry of Groups in Hyperbranched Polymers
In this paper, both lifetime and intensity in hyperbranched polymers were measured by using positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) measurements. Ortho-positronium properties upon the degree of branching (DB) have been studied; o-Ps lifetimes maintain a constant while an increase in o-Ps intensities has been detected with DB increasing. Which is inconsistent with authors prediction and indicate that interactions between positronium and the free-volumes are strongly depend on not only the free-volume size properties but also its chemistry environment, due to the variations in the distribution of the different ending groups: -OH and -CH3, caused by DB changes in hyperbranched polymers. The present works demonstrate that in the polar-polymeric application of PALS, effects of the distribution of polar groups should be properly taken into consideration.
