讲座摘要/Abstract:
The glassy polymers exhibit swelling behavior that is completely different from that of soft polymers (like rubber and gels) in their good solvents. As the solvent penetrates, the thickness of the glassy polymer samples initially increases linearly over time, rather than following the typical Fickian diffusion time scale, while the area remains almost constant. After a certain period, the thickness begins to decrease while the area starts to increase, eventually reaching an equilibrium state. This unusual phenomenon has been observed in various polymer systems over the past 50 years, such as PMMA in methanol, PVC in acetone, PS in alkyl solutions, and even in other systems like ions in conjugated polymers. Although there are numerous theoretical models addressing this issue, almost all focus solely on the non-Fickian diffusion behavior of glassy polymer swelling, known as "Case II diffusion," while neglecting the problem of three-dimensional nonlinear deformation. Based on the Onsager variational principle, we propose a unified theory that describes the swelling of glassy polymers. Our theory not only provides a comprehensive and novel explanation for the swelling behavior but also predicts the relationship between diffusion rates and swelling characteristic times with material parameters and experimental conditions, offering theoretical guidance for effectively controlling this swelling behavior. In this report, I will introduce how we developed such a unified theoretical model and the novel results and predictions we obtained.
