摘要
Positron annihilation lifetime measurements have been performed to study the effect of an external electric field in several polymers. The application of the electric field on polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and ultrahigh-molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) noticeably decreased the ortho-positronium (o-Ps) intensity. The o-Ps intensity increased with increasing electric field strength in the poly(ethylene terephthalate), PET, poly(ethylene naphthalate), PEN, and poly(aryl-ether-ether-ketone), PEEK samples. The data are consistent with a hypothesis that nonpolar polymers (PTFE and UHMWPE) show a decrease in the o-Ps intensity with increasing electric field, while the effect seems to be opposite in polar polymers (PEN, PET and PEEK).
