AbstractPP/nano-CaCO3 composites with different interfacial interaction were prepared by addition of compatibilizers with the same polar groups but different backbones. The non-isothermal and isothermal crystallization behavior of PP/nano- CaCO3 composites was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results indicated that the interfacial interaction between PP and nano-CaCO3 increased the crystallization temperature and crystallization rate of PP due to the heterogeneous nucleation of nano-CaCO3. The interfacial interaction between nano- CaCO3 and compatibilizer further increased the crystallization temperature and crystallization rate of PP and induced the formation of β-crystal of PP due to the synergistic effect of heterogeneous nucleation between nano-CaCO3 and compatibilizer. This synergistic effect of heterogeneous nucleation between nano- CaCO3 and compatibilizer depended on the interfacial interaction between compatibilizer and PP matrix. The increased compatibility between compatibilizer and PP matrix favoured the heterogeneous nucleation between nano-CaCO3 and compatibilizer

The biodegradable nanocomposites of poly (3–hydroxybutyrate–co–3–hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) with different cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) contents were prepared by a solvent casting method. The effects of CNCs on the crystallization behavior of PHBV were studied by DSC. The DSC results showed that compared to PHBV, the melt crystallization temperature increased to 92.3 °C for the nanocomposites with 10 wt. % CNCs, which indicated that the crystallization of PHBV became easier with the addition of CNCs. Moreover, the non–isothermal crystallization kinetics study illustrated that overall crystallization rate of PHBV in the nanocomposites was faster than that of neat PHBV, which should be attributed to the strong heterogeneous nucleation of CNCs.

Abstract In this study, the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) tests were performed to measure the nonisothermal crystallization behavior of carbon fiber reinforced polyether ether ketone (CF/PEEK) composites under different cooling rates. The characteristic parameters of crystallization were obtained, and the nonisothermal crystallization model was established. The crystallization temperature range of the material at different cooling rates was predicted by the model. The unidirectional laminates were fabricated at different cooling rates in the crystallization temperature range. The results showed that the crystallization temperature range shifted to a lower temperature with the increase of cooling rate, the established nonisothermal crystallization model was consistent with the DSC test results. It is feasible to shorten the cooling control range from the whole process to the crystallization range. The crystallinity and transverse tensile strength declined significantly with the increase of the cooling rate in the crystallization temperature range. The research results provided theoretical support for the selection of cooling conditions and temperature control range, which could be applied to the thermoforming process of semi-crystalline polymer matrixed composites to improve the manufacturing efficiency.

AbstractStudy of the crystallization kinetics is particularly necessary for the analysis and design of processing operations, especially the non-isothermal crystallization behavior, which is due to the fact that most practical processing techniques are carried out under non-isothermal conditions. The non-isothermal crystallization behaviors of polyamide 6 (PA6) and PA6/high-density polyethylene/maleic anhydride/2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di(tert-butylperoxy)hexane (PA6/HDPE/MAH/L-101) composites were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The crystallization kinetics under non-isothermal condition was analyzed by the Jeziorny and Mo equations, and the activation energy was determined by the Kissinger and Takhor methods. The crystal structure and morphology were analyzed by wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WXRD) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). The results indicate that PA6/HDPE/MAH/L-101 has higher crystallization temperature and crystallization rate, which is explained as due to its heterogeneous nuclei.

AbstractIn this study, hydroxyapatite (HA) was incorporated in a poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) matrix and the thermal properties and crystallization behavior of the derived composites were investigated. The nanocomposites, containing 0–20 wt% HA, were prepared by melt extrusion employing a twin-screw extruder. XRD experiments verified an increase in the intensity of the characteristic diffraction peak of the α-form crystalline phase of PLLA with increasing HA content. By DSC experiments it was observed that the presence of HA increased the crystallinity during cold crystallization, leading to a shift of cold-crystallization temperature to lower values and to an increase in the melting temperature of the PLLA phase. Isothermal crystallization experiments at 100, 110, 115 and 120°C, revealed a maximum in crystallization kinetic around 100°C after the addition of HA compared to 115°C for pure PLLA. The crystallization rate of PLLA matrix in the nanocomposites decreased with increasing crystallization temperature. By using the Avrami and Lauritzen-Hoffman equations the exponent n was calculated in the range 2–3 and a theoretical approach verified that the HA/PLLA systems belong to Regime II of crystallization behavior. The investigated melting behavior of PLLA was attributed to better organized crystalline structure with increasing isothermal crystallization temperatures and might be related with the longer time necessary for the completion of crystallization.

Poly(L-lactic acid)-co-bisphenol-A epoxy resin/vermiculite nanocomposites（PLLA-co-bis A /VMT）were prepared by in-situ melt polycondensation of L-LA in the presence of amino-modified vermiculite. The fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra were used to investigate molecular interactions between the modified vermiculite and PLLA. The detailed thermal property and crystallization behavior of samples were studied by using polarized optical microscopy (POM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The result indicated that the thermal stability, overall crystallization rate and spherulitic texture of PLLA-co-bis A were strongly influenced in the presence of vermiculite particles.

In this work, biodegradable Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) was modified through adding a new organic additive N, N -bis(benzoyl) 1, 4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid dihydrazide (NABH). A comparison on crystallization of the pure PLLA and PLLA/NABH revealed that the NABH as effective heterogeneous nucleation sites enhanced PLLA𠏋 crystallization, and an increase of NABH loading was able to further accelerate crystallization rate of PLLA; whereas a faster cooling rate was not conducive to PLLA𠏋 crystallization, but the appearance of obvious crystallization peak upon cooling at 30şC/min confirmed the advanced enhancing role of NABH for PLLA crystallization again. The investigation on influence of the final melting temperature on the crystallization behavior of PLLA showed that the 170 şC was optimum final melting temperature for enhancing crystallization, even the onset crystallization temperature of PLLA/NABH were higher than 150şC. The melting processes of PLLA/NABH after different crystallization not only could reflect the previous crystallization, but also depended on crystallization temperature and heating rate. Thermal decomposition results showed that the existence of NABH slightly weakened thermal stability of PLLA, and the maximum difference in onset thermal decomposition temperature was only 9.4şC comparing with the pure PLLA. However, the presence of NABH in PLLA matrix seriously weakened optical property.

The heat-resistant agent N-(4-carboxyphenyl) maleimide–alt–styrene (PCS) was used to modify polylactic acid (PLA) in order to improve the thermostability of PLA. The heat deflection temperature (HDT), thermodegradation, crystallization behavior and thermomechanical property were analyzed. The HDT of PLA added with PCS increased by about 10°C, and after heat treatment, the improvement of HDT was more significant. The thermal degradation behavior of PLA before and after modification hardly changed. The crystallinity ( Xc), crystallization rate ( 1/t1/2) and crystallization temperature ( Tc) of the composite material were significantly improved, but the crystalline structure did not change. The crystallinity of the composite material was twice that of pure PLA, the crystallization rate increased by about 30% and the crystallization temperature went up more than 10°C. The storage modulus ( E’) of PLA was improved by PCS due to enhancing its crystallinity. The thermostability of PLA was significant improved after PCS is added.

The Na2O-CaO-SiO2-MgO-Al2O3-ZnO glass-ceramics was prepared from the phosphorus slag as main primary raw materials by melt quenching technique. The effects of K2O and Al2O3 on crystallization behavior and structure of glass-ceramics were investigated by DSC, XRD and SEM. It is shown that the main crystalline phase is combeite (Na4Ca4(Si6O18)) in glass-ceramics. K2O and Al2O3 do not change the main crystalline phase of glass-ceramics, but K2O increases the crystallization temperature, Al2O3 increases the crystallization temperature, obviously decreases the grain size. The K2O isometric replaces Na2O at the same time the Al2O3 isometric to replace SiO2, reduced the grain size.

Abstract The non-isothermal behaviour of crystallization of polypropylene (PP) and its talc-filled composites was investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry. Different analytical methods were used to describe the crystallization process. According to the behaviour of crystallization temperature, crystallization activation energy and crystallization parameters and coefficient, talc results in an increase in PP crystallization rate and in a decrease in total energy opposing to homogeneous crystallization. Velisaris-Seferis’ kinetic equation was found to describe reasonably well the non-isothermal behaviour of crystallization of PP and its filled composites.
