Injection Molded

Injection-molded β-isotactic polypropylene (β-iPP) specimens were prepared by adding three β nucleation masterbatches, i.e., NT-MA, NT-MB and NT-MC, respectively. The melting, crystallization and mechanical properties of β-iPP specimens were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and mechanical tests. It is revealed that β crystalline form contents were enhanced by the β nucleation masterbatches, and the β contents of the cores were higher than those of the skins of injection molded specimens. The tensile strain at break and Izod notched impact strength of iPP were greatly improved by the β nucleation masterbatches. It was found that the β nucleation efficiency was in the order: NT-MC > NT-MA > NT-MB.
