摘要
The molecular dynamics of a series of poly(dimethylsiloxane) networks filled with silica nanoparticles synthesized in situ was studied using dielectric relaxation spectroscopy. In addition to the alpha-relaxation associated with the glass transition of the polymer matrix, we observe a slower alpha-relaxation. This behavior is discussed in terms of a gradual increase of relaxation times close to the surface of the nanoparticles. The range of this effect is estimated to be around 3 nm at T-g decreasing slightly with increasing temperature. The results are discussed in rclation to molecular dynarnics simulations of supercooled liquids close to an interface, as well as experimental studies of nanoconfined -lass forming liquids and thin polymer films.
