The present article deals with the differential thermal analyses (DTA) study of Se–Te glasses containing Sn. DTA runs are taken at six different heating rates (5, 10, 15, 18, 20, and 22 K min−1). The crystallization data are examined in terms of modified Kissinger, Mahadevan method, and Augis and Bennett approximation for the non-isothermal crystallization. Results of DTA under non-isothermal conditions on the glasses of the Se80Te20--xSnx (x = 3 and 9) are reported and discussed at different heating rates. The glass transition temperatures (Tg), the onset crystallization temperatures (Tc), and the peak temperature of crystallization (Tp) were found to be dependent on the compositions and the heating rates. From the dependence on heating rates of (Tg) and (Tp) the activation energy for glass transition (Eg) and the activation energy for crystallization (Ec) are calculated and their composition dependence discussed.

The non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of Mg61Zn35Ca4 glassy alloy prepared via melt-spinning were studied by using isoconversion method. The crystalline characterization of Mg61Zn35Ca4 was examined by X-ray diffraction. Different scanning calorimeter was used to investigate the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics at different heating rates (3-60 K/min). The calculated value of Avrami exponent obtained by Matusita method indicated that the crystalline transformation for Mg61Zn35Ca4 is a complex process of nucleation and growth. The Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose method was used to investigate the activation energy. The activation energy of crystallization varies with the extent of crystallization and hence with temperature. The Sestak-Berggren model was used to describe the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics.

Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of Co67Fe4Cr7Si8B14amorphous ribbons was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique under 10, 20, 30, 40 and 80 °Cmin-1heating rates. It is found that Co67Fe4Cr7Si8B14amorphous alloy exhibits two-stage crystallization on heating. The two crystallization peaks shift to higher temperatures with increasing heating rate. The apparent activation energies (EC) for the first stage of crystallization were determined as 443.44 and 434.47 kJmol-1by using the Kissinger and Ozawa equations, respectively. Frequency factor (A) estimated to be 1.084×1026s-1using Kissinger equation. Kinetics parameters such as Crystallization exponent (n) and dimensionality of growth (Ndim) were determined using JMA (Johnson-Mehl-Avrami) method. Details of the nucleation and growth behaviours during the non-isothermal crystallization were studied in terms of local activation energy EC(x) by the OFW (Ozawa, Flynn and Wall) method. Also the activation energy for nucleation (En) and growth (Eg) separately estimated.

Montmorillonite Nanocomposites

The melt intercalation method was employed to prepare poly(butylene terepathalate)/montmorillonite nanocomposites, and their microstructure was characterized by wide angle X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The XRD results showed that the crystalline plane such as (010), (111), (100) was smaller than that of pristine PBT, which indicates that the crystallite size of PBT in the nanocomposites could be diminished by adding clay. Moreover, the isothermal crystallization kinetics of PBT and PBT/MMT nanocomposites was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). During isothermal crystallization, the development of crystallinity with time was analysed by the Avrami equation. The results show that very small amounts of clay dramatically increased the rate of crystallization and high clay concentrations reduced the rate of crystallization at the low crystallization temperatures. At low concentrations of clay, the distance between dispersed platelets was large so it was relatively easy for the additional nucleation sites to incorporate surrounding polymer, and the crystal nucleus was formatted easily. However, at high concentrations of clay, the diffusion of polymer chains to the growing crystallites was hindered by large clay particles, despite the formation of additional nucleation sites by the clay layers. At the higher crystallization temperature, the crystallization of the nanocomposites was slower than that of the pure PBT under the experimental conditions, which means that with the increase in chains mobility at the high crystallization temperature, the crystal nuclei are harder to format, and the hindering effect of clay particles on the polymer chains was stronger than the nucleating effect of the layers. In addition, the activation energies of crystallization for PBT and its nanocomposites were calculated by the Arrhenius relationship, and the results showed that the nanocomposites with a low clay content had the lower activation energy values than PBT, while high amounts of clay increased the activation energy of PBT.

The W48.5Ni34Fe14.6B2.9 (wt.%) amorphous ribbons were prepared using melt spinning method. The crystallization kinetics of amorphous ribbons was investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) at different heating rates from 10 to 40 K/min. The activation energy of amorphous ribbons was simulated by Kissinger and Ozawa equations, respectively. The precipitated phases at different annealing temperatures were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that the glass transition temperature (Tg), the crystallization temperature (Tx) and the peak temperature (Tp) were found to increase during enhancing heating rate, indicating the obvious kinetic effects of glass transition and crystallization. The consistency of values of the activation energy calculated by Kissinger and Ozawa equations suggested the good accuracy about experiment results. The specific temperatures of Tx and Tp detected by DSC and the deduced crystallization activation energy are generally higher than these of other amorphous alloys, which suggests a higher resistance to crystallization. The W48.5Ni34Fe14.6B2.9 alloy substantially remained at amorphous structure when annealed at 923K for 60 min, showing that the alloy possessed a higher thermal stability.

In this paper, the isothermal crystallization kinetics of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) and iPP with 5% hyperbranched polymer (HBP) added had been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results show that a small addition of HBP affects the crystallization behavior of iPP. During isothermal crystallization, the crystallization rate of the blend is higher than those of iPP remarkably. An increase in the Avrami exponent may be attributed to the fractal structure of hyperbranched polymer. The crystallization activation energy is estimated by the Friedman equation, the results show that the activation energy decreases remarkably by addition of HBP and the crystallization rate of the blend is more sensitive to temperature than that of iPP.

The crystallization kinetics of melt-spun Cu64.5Zr35.5 amorphous alloy ribbons was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at different heating rates. Besides, the Kissinger and isoconversional approaches were used to obtain the crystallization kinetic parameters. As shown in the results, the activation energies for glass transition and crystallization process at the onset, peak and end crystallization temperatures were obtained by means of Kissinger equation to be 577.65 ± 34, 539.86 ± 54, 518.25 ± 20 and 224.84 ± 2 kJ/mol, respectively. The nucleation activation energy Enucleation is greater than grain growth activation energy Egrowth, indicating that the nucleation process is harder than grain growth. The local activation energy Eα decreases in the whole crystallization process, which suggests that crystallization process is increasingly easy.

Isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of polycyclohexylene dimethylene cyclohexanedicarboxylate (PCCE) were investigated via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Isothermal melt crystallization kinetics were analyzed using the traditional Avrami equation. Non-isothermal melt crystallization kinetics data obtained from DSC were analyzed using the extended Avrami relation and a combination of the Avrami equation and the Ozawa relationship. The glass transition temperature, equilibrium melting point, isothermal crystallization activation energy, and non-isothermal crystallization activation energy were determined. Furthermore, a predictive method based on the Nakamura model was proposed and was used to describe the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics based on the isothermal experimental data. The results suggested that the original Nakamura equation was not successful in describing the non-isothermal crystallization of PCCE over a wide range of cooling rates. It was found that the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of PCCE, over a wide range of cooling rates, could best be described by modifying the differential Nakamura equation to include a varied Avrami index.

Abstract The present framework reports the structural, fundamental parameters, and crystallization kinetics of the melt-quenched As30Te64Ga6 chalcogenide glass. The energy dispersive X-ray analysis of the As30Te64Ga6 glassy system reveals that the constituent element ratio of the investigated bulk sample agrees with the nominal composition. Also, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) were used to characterize crystallization kinetics, and structural properties; respectively. Four characteristic temperatures related to various phenomena are observed in the investigated DSC traces. The first one is Tg that corresponds to the glass transition temperature. The second one is TC1, and TC2 that corresponds to the onset of the double crystallization temperatures. The third one TP1, and TP2 identifies the double peak crystallization temperatures. The last characteristic temperature Tm is the melting point. The XRD analysis indicates the amorphous structure of the as-prepared glassy alloy, while the annealed samples are polycrystalline. The crystallization kinetics of the As30Te64Ga6 bulk are studied under non-isothermal conditions. In addition, the values of various kinetic parameters such as the glass transition activation energy, weight stability standard, and Avrami support were determined. The activation energy of the crystallization process for As30Te64Ga6 glass alloy was calculated using classical methods. The results indicated that the rate of crystallization is related to thermal stability and the ability to form glass. Kinetic parameters have been estimated with some conventional methods and found to be dependent on heating rates (β).
