Local structure and glass transition of polybutadiene up to 4 GPa.
This communication presents a determination of the glass transition of polybutadiene under very high pressure, and raises the problem of the determination of the relative effects of temperature and density on the glass transition, depending on the pressure and temperature conditions. Local structure and slow dynamics were studied, by neutron scattering and calorimetry. To the best of our knowledge in neutron diffraction on soft matter such a high pressure, up to 4 GPa, was achieved.
