Tóm tắt

A Schiff base containing the 1,2,4-triazole moiety was synthesized and added to polystyrene at low concentration for a homogenous blend. The polystyrene film was irradiated with ultraviolet light and the surface morphology was analyzed. Micrographs of the polystyrene/Schiff base blend after irradiation indicated the fabrication of a terrestrial crack-like material. This was ascribed to the presence of the Schiff base, relatively long irradiation time, and photostability induced by the base. After irradiation, the blank polystyrene film formed a cotton-like fibrous material.
