dc.description.abstractEnhancement of a flexible poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC)-silica composite interface was studied by the application of ?-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane on silica. Composites containing silica and silanized silica up to 25.6 phr (per hundred resin) and prepared by sol-gel technology were subjected to water and water vapor attacks similar to that in their daily use. Silane application resulted in diminishing liquid water and water vapor sorption by about 24.0% and 11.9%, respectively. Equilibrium weight gain values of the composites having different amounts of silica correlated well with a peak at 3400 cm-1 in the IR spectra which was attributed to the stretching vibration of the O-H group of water. Liquid water and water vapor diffusivities in composites determined by the evaluation of weight gain against time data were about 0.4 x 10-13 and 0.4 x 10-12 m2 s-1, respectively. Inhibition of dioctyl phthalate (DOP) migration from composites by silane application was also determined as 24% using UV measurements. The most impressive merit of silane enhancement was observed as the retention of ultimate tensile strength (UTS) under wet conditions. While the untreated silica composite reduced its UTS by about 21.2%, silanized silica composite reduced its UTS by only about 13.6%, on wetting. © VSP 1997.en_US
