Abstract

In this study, the effects of the free quenching temperature on mechanical, thermomechanical and thermophysical properties of pigmented polystyrene (PS/TiO2) with 3% of TiO2 were investigated. Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of the titanium dioxide pigmented polystyrene were measured using a periodic method. The results show a slow improvement of the notched Izod impact strength obtained after a second quenching at 15 and 35°C; whereas thermal conductivity and diffusivity reached a minimum value at the quenching temperature of 35°C. However, the effect on the thermophysical properties is only noted for the second quenching temperature 35°C. The study allowed examining the effect of quenching temperature, filler concentration and material thickness on the transient thermal behavior of the titanium dioxide pigmented polystyrene.
