| Abstract: | Ionic polymers (ionomers) with interesting characteristics are emerging as important commercial polymers. Ionomers have the unique ability to behave as cross-linked materials at ambient temperatures and to melt and flow at elevated temperatures like thermoplastics. The complex permittivity and conductivity of a class of ionomers at microwave frequencies are determined using the cavity perturbation technique and the results are presented. |

| Abstract: | High styrene rubber ionomers were prepared by sulfonating styrene–butadiene rubber of high styrene content (high styrene rubber) in 1,2-dichloroethane using acetyl sulfate reagent, followed by neutralization of the precursor acids using methanolic zinc acetate. The ionomers were characterized using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and also by the evaluation of mechanical properties. The FTIR studies of the ionomer reveal that the sulfonate groups are attached to the benzene ring. The NMR spectra give credence to this observation. Results of DMA show an ionic transition (Ti) in addition to glass–rubber transition (Tg). Incorporation of ionic groups results in improved mechanical properties as well as retention of properties after three cycles of processing |
