Crystallization Kinetics and Nanoparticle Ordering in Semicrystalline Polymer Nanocomposites
(Elsevier, 2022-03-13)
There has been considerable interest in the nucleation and crystallization of polymers in the presence of nanoparticles (NPs, or nanofillers in general, NFs). Most of the extensive work in this area has focused on anisotropic, ...
The effect of initial molecular weight on the structural evolution of Polyamide 1012 during high-temperature thermal treatments as revealed by Successive Self-Nucleation and Annealing
(ACS, 2022-08-24)
Successive self-nucleation and annealing (SSA) can thermally fractionate semi-crystalline polymers, thus detecting the characteristic structural features that lead to specific melting point distributions (corresponding to ...
Biodegradable binary blends of poly (butylene succinate) or poly (ε-caprolactone) with poly (butylene succinate-ran-ε-caprolactone) copolymers: Crystallization behavior
(Elsevier, 2022-08-12)
Poly (butylene succinate) (PBS) and polycaprolactone (PCL) are two immiscible biocompatible and biodegradable polymers. Aiming to combine the properties of these biodegradable polymers, this work explores for the first ...
Unexpected structural properties in the saturation region of the odd-even effects in aliphatic polyethers: Influence of crystallization conditions
(ACS, 2022-01-04)
A series of aliphatic polyethers with different chain lengths (nCH2= 6 to 12, and 16) is
studied employing differential scanning calorimetry and X-rays scattering. The
calorimetric and structural behavior of samples ...
Experimental and Data Fitting Guidelines for the Determination of Polymer Crystallization Kinetics
(Springer Nature, 2022-05-05)
The crystallization kinetics of semicrystalline polymers is often studied with isothermal experiments and analyzed by fitting the data with analytical expressions of the Avrami and Lauritzen and Hoffman (LH) theories. To ...
