| Résumé : |
Capillary pressure force and direct surface tension force are known to be sufficient though probably not necessary to drive the compaction stage of latex film formation. There is abundant evidence that van der Waals force can draw particles together progressively more around the perimeters of interparticle contacts, but their role in compaction remains unanswered. With the powerful technique of high-resolution cryogenic scanning electron microscopy (cryo-SEM), together with fast-freezing and freeze-drying followed by controlled annealing at temperatures below and around the nominal glass transition temperature, we have documented the role of van der Waals force in film formation in the water-free condition, i.e., with capillary pressure and surface tension forces absent. Results of imaging the freeze-dried and annealed coatings are fully consistent with the hypothesis that van der Waals force alone can compact a latex coating. The rate at which particles flatten and thus the coating compacts by annealing increases, as expected, with temperature and time. The results of rewetting tests of coatings annealed at various temperatures demonstrate that compacted coating is not necessarily coalesced, and that even full compaction of solid particles can be elastic, hence reversible, rather than viscoelastic or viscoplastic. Some of the results suggest that soluble ionic surfactant and oligomeric and grafted polymeric stabilizers at particle surfaces, collapse to undetectable dimensions during freeze-drying, yet reswell to detectable size during rewetting, if they have not dissolved into polymer particles during. |
