Influence of Chemical Structures on Isodimorphic Behavior of Three Different Copolycarbonate Random Copolymer Series
(American Chemical Society, 2020-01-10)
Three series of aliphatic random copolycarbonates, poly(heptane-co-dodecane carbonate) P7C-P12C, poly(butane-co-dodecane carbonate) P4C-P12C and poly(butane-co-heptane carbonate) P4C-P7C, were synthesized by two-step ...
Chemical Structure Drives Memory Effects in the Crystallization of Homopolymers
(ACS, 2020-06-11)
Although the study of melt memory has attracted much interest, the effect of polymer chemical structure on its origin has not been fully elucidated. In this work, we study melt memory effects by Differential Scanning ...
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 ...
Self-nucleation Effects on Polymer Crystallization
(ACS, 2020-05-28)
The existence of a “memory” of the previous crystalline state, which survives melting and enhances re-crystallization kinetics by a self-nucleation process, is well-known in polymer crystallization studies. Despite being ...
Competition between Chain Extension and Crosslinking in Polyamide 1012 during High Temperature Thermal Treatments as Revealed by SSA Fractionation
(ACS, 2021-08-03)
Self-nucleation and annealing (SSA) is an efficient way to thermally fractionate semi-crystalline polymers. The thermal fractions produced by SSA have distinct melting points that correspond to different average lamellar ...
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 ...
Melt Memory Effects in Poly(butylene succinate) Studied by Differential Fast Scanning Calorimetry
(MDPI, 2020-11-26)
It is widely accepted that melt memory effect on polymer crystallization depends on thermal history of the material, however a systematic study of the different parameters involved in the process has been neglected, so ...
Phase Transitions in Poly(vinylidene fluoride)/Polymethylene-Based Diblock Copolymers and Blends
(MDPI, 2021-07-24)
The crystallization and morphology of two linear diblock copolymers based on polymethylene (PM) and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) with compositions PM23-b-PVDF77 and PM38-b-PVDF62 (where the subscripts indicate the ...
Flame Retardant Polyphosphoester Copolymers as Solid Polymer Electrolyte for Lithium Batteries
(RSC, 2021-05-19)
Solid-state lithium batteries are considered one of the most promising battery systems due to their high volumetric energy density and safety. Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) is the most commonly used solid polymer electrolyte ...
