Confined Crystallization of Polymers within Nanopores
(ACS, 2021-08-03)
Crystallization of polymeric materials under nanoscopic confinement is highly relevant for nanotechnology applications. When a polymer is confined within rigid nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates, the ...
Direct Relationship between Dispersion and Crystallization Behavior in Poly(ethylene oxide)/Poly(ethylene glycol)-g-Silica Nanocomposites
(American Chemical Society, 2021-02-08)
The inclusion of polymer-grafted nanoparticles (PGNPs) can impart various
functional properties to polymer nanocomposites (PNCs). For semicrystalline
polymers, we can control the spatial dispersion of PGNPs and presumably ...
Suppression of the Self-Nucleation Effect of Semicrystalline Polymers by Confinement
(ACS, 2021-04-15)
The melt memory effect is well-known in polymer crystallization. It is caused by self-nuclei that
persist above the melting temperature. The origin and physical nature of self-nuclei are still under
debate. In this work, ...
Using Successive Self-nucleation and Annealing (SSA) to detect the solid-solid transitions in poly (hexamethylene carbonate) and poly (octamethylene carbonate)
(ACS, 2021-10-26)
Solid-solid transitions in poly (hexamethylene carbonate) (PC6) and poly (octamethylene carbonate) (PC8), denoted δ to α transition, have been investigated, using self-nucleation and Successive Self-nucleation and Annealing ...
Solid–Solid Crystal Transitions (δ to α) in Poly(hexamethylene carbonate) and Poly(octamethylene carbonate)
(ACS, 2021-07-21)
Poly (hexamethylene carbonate) (PC6) and poly (octamethylene carbonate) (PC8) were studied under different crystallization conditions. Using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), a new solid-solid transition, denoted α ...
Peculiar self-nucleation behavior of a polybutene-1/ethylene random copolymer
(Wiley, 2021-07-31)
The self-nucleation behavior of a polybutene-1/ethylene random copolymer, P(B1-ran-E), which undergoes a complex crystal-crystal transition behavior, has been studied in detail. Similar to PE random copolymers, this material ...
