Abstract in Portuguese
Neste presente trabalho foi realizado um estudo sobre copolímeros em bloco e seus nanocompósitos com diferentes estruturas morfológicas. Os polímeros estudados foram copolímeros de poliestireno-b-poli(etileno-co-butileno)-b-poliestireno (SEBS), sendo dois desses copolímeros com fração em massa de 30% de blocos de poliestireno (PS), e um deles modificado com anidrido maleico na fase de poli(etileno-co-butileno) (PEB). Os outros três copolímeros têm 13% de blocos de PS. A nanopartícula utilizada foi a argila montmorilonita organofílica Cloisite 20A. Os nanocompósitos foram preparados por dois métodos: i) mistura no estado fundido (extrusão); ii) solução. As microestruturas dos materiais resultantes foram caracterizadas pelas técnicas de espalhamento de raios X a baixo ângulo (SAXS) e difração de raios-X (DRX). As propriedades reológicas foram avaliadas em dois tipo de fluxo (cisalhamento e elongacional). Para avaliar as propriedades reológicas em fluxo de cisalhamento foram realizados ensaios de cisalhamento oscilatório em pequenas amplitudes (SAOS), cisalhamento oscilatório em grandes amplitudes (LAOS) e varredura de tempo (TS). Para avaliar as propriedades reológicas em fluxo elongacional foram realizados ensaios com geometria apropriada (SER), acoplada ao reômetro rotacional. Estes ensaios foram conduzindo em duas direções: paralela (longitudinal) e perpendicular (transversal) à direção do fluxo de extrusão. As análises de caracterização estrutural (DRX e SAXS) indicaram uma estrutura intercalada para os nanocompósitos SEBS/20A e esfoliada para as matrizes modificadas com anidrido maleico. A caracterização reológica dos copolímeros com 30% de blocos de PS em fluxo de cisalhamento mostrou que as morfologias dos nanocompósitos são estáveis com o tempo de cisalhamento, e permitiu confirmar as estruturas dos nanocompósitos. Para os copolímeros com 13% de blocos de PS foi possível identificar as temperaturas de transição ordem-ordem e ordem-desordem. Os resultados dos ensaios reológicos indicaram que ocorre alinhamento dos cilindros na direção dos fluxos de cisalhamento e elongacional. Também foram avaliadas as propriedades mecânicas, e os resultados mostraram que o comportamento mecânico é altamente influenciado pela estrutura morfológica e a incorporação de argila.

Abstract in English
In this work block copolymers and their nanocomposites were studied. The polymers studied were copolymers of polystyrene-b-poly(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-polystyrene (SEBS), with two samples containing 30 wt% of PS blocks. The other three copolymers contained 13% of PS blocks. Two block copolymers are modified with maleic anhydride. The reinforcement used was the montmorillonite organoclay Cloisite 20A. The nanocomposites were prepared by two methods: i) melt blending (extrusion), with which a cylindrical hexagonal structure (anisotropic and isotropic) was obtained; ii) casting, with which a lamellar structure was obtained. The microstructures were characterized by the techniques of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The rheological properties were evaluated in two different flows (shear and elongational). To evaluate the rheological properties in shear flow the samples were tested under small amplitude oscillatory shear (SAOS), large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) and time sweep (TS). To evaluate the rheological properties in elongational flow, tests were carried out using an appropriate geometry (SER). The latter tests were conducted on samples aligned in two different directions: parallel (longitudinal) and perpendicular (transverse) to the flow direction of extrusion. The structural characterization analysis (XRD and SAXS) indicated an intercalated nanocomposite structure for SEBS/20A, and an exfoliated structure for the copolymers modified with maleic anhydride. The rheological characterization of the samples in shear flow showed that the morphologies of the nanocomposites are stable with time of shearing, and it confirmed the morphologies of the nanocomposites (30% PS block). For copolymers with 13 % of PS blocks it was possible to identify the order-order and order-disorder transition temperatures. The rheological tests showed that it is possible to align the morphologies in shear and elongational flows. The mechanical properties were also evaluated; the results have shown that the mechanical behavior was strongly influenced by the morphological structure and clay incorporation.
