Impact Polypropylene Copolymer (IPC) is one of the PP type which is widely used. IPC was made with addition of ethylene in PP which decreases PP crystallinity. Many efforts have been made to improve the properties of PP crystallinity by addition of nucleating agents. In this study, we use Arenga Pinnata “Ijuk” fiber as PP nucleating agent. In order to determine the effect of “Ijuk” fiber as nucleating agents in kinetics aspect, we used DSC measurement based on Avrami equation. The results showed that the addition of ijuk decreases crystallizationhalf timeand dimension of crystal growth which indicate the effects of “Ijuk” fiber as a nucleating agent.

Crystallization kinetics experiment of calcium sulfate dehydrates, which is prepared by bittern under 20°C and 120r/min conditions, is carried out. According to the results of the experimental data, nucleation densityn0of gypsum crystals is proportional to the residence time, and the rate of crystal growth lineGis inversely proportional to the residence time. Meanwhile, the crystallization kinetics formula is derived to be:B0= 5.78×102G0.87.

The crystallization behavior of bamboo fiber (BF) reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites (BPCs) was investigated using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The results showed that unmodified BF as a nucleation agent accelerated the crystallization rate of the PP matrix during cooling whereas there is no significant effect on the improved crystallization rate in BPCs with acetylated BFs. Based on the Avrami method, Avrami–Ozawa method, and Friedman method, the corresponding crystallization kinetics of PP reinforced with different acetylation levels of BFs were further analyzed. The results demonstrated that the crystal growth mechanism of the PP matrix for BPCs with unmodified and various acetylated BFs exhibited tabular crystal growth with heterogeneous nucleation. A higher cooling rate is required to achieve a certain relative crystallinity degree at the unit crystallization time for BPCs with a higher weight percent gain (WPG) of acetylated BFs (WPG >13%). Furthermore, based on the Friedman method, the lowest crystallization activation energy was observed for the BPCs with 19% WPG of acetylated BFs.

Systematic investigations of the crystallization kinetics of two representative compounds of p-phenylbenzylidene-p´ -alkylanilines are performed, using differential scanning calorimetry, to study the influence of the kinetophase (occurs prior to the crystal phase) on the nucleation process. The dimensionality of the crystal growth and the related crystallization process are discussed in terms of the Avrami parameters n and b. The trend in the magnitude of the Avrami exponent n supports the occurrence of temperature-dependent transformations in the orthorhombic molecular array.

The nucleation and crystallization kinetics of P2O5-B2O3-ZnO-BaO-Al2O3-TiO2 crystals in bulk glass in which this crystals were found to crystallize in the heating process of the glass, were studied by non-isothermal measurements using differential thermal analysis (DTA). A nucleation rate-temperature was determined by plotting either the reciprocal of the temperature corresponding to the crystallization peak maximum, 1/Tp, or the height of the crystallization peak, (*T)p, as a function of nucleation temperature, Tn. The temperature where nucleation can occur for this glass ranges from 700°C to 890°C and the temperature for maximum nucleation is 760±5°C. The correct activation energy for crystallization, Ec, for this glass is the same for surface and/or bulk crystallization, and is 533±15°CkJ/mol. The analysis of the crystallization data with the Kissinger equation and the Marotta equation yields the correct value for Ec only crystal growth occurs on a fixed number of nuclei. The crystallization process of a sample heat treated at the temperature of the maximum nucleation rate was fitted to kinetic equations with an Avrami constant, n ≈2 and a dimensionality of crystal growth, m ≈2.

When a homogeneous amorphous Pd40.5Ni40.5P19 alloy was subjected to thermal annealing for 30 min at various temperatures, novel microstructures were observed. At an annealing temperature of 603 K, phase separation of the amorphous phase dominated. At 628 K, a precipitation reaction proceeded first. After its completion, a eutectic growth set in. At 638 K, metastable spinodal decomposition occurred first, followed by a eutectic growth. Finally at 673 K, crystal growth of crystalline spinodal network was fast enough to compete with a eutectic growth.
