Unsaturated poly (butylene adipate-co-butylene itaconate) (PBABI) copolyesters were synthesized through melt polymerization composed of 1,4-butanediol (BDO), adipic acid (AA), itaconic acid (IA) and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA) as a cross-linking modifier. The melting point, crystallization and glass transition temperature of the PBABI copolyesters were detected around 29.8–49 °C, 7.2–29 °C and −51.1 and −58.1 °C, respectively. Young’s modulus can be modified via partial cross-linking by BTCA in the presence of IA, ranging between 32.19–168.45 MPa. Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics were carried out to explore the crystallization behavior, revealing the highest crystallization rate was placed in the BA/BI = 90/10 at a given molecular weight. Furthermore, the thermal, mechanical properties, and crystallization rate of PBABI copolyesters can be tuned through the adjustment of BTCA and IA concentrations.

Poly (butylene succinate-co-butylene adipate)/attapulgite nanocomposites were prepared by melt mixing in a HAAKE mixer. The crystallization kinetics of PBSA and its nanocomposites was studied under isothermal conditions by differential scanning calorimetr. The isothermal crystallization kinetics results indicated that attapulgite can induce heterogeneous nucleation, resulting in an improvement on the crystallization temperature and crystallization rate. Both the PBSA and its nanocomposites were correlated to the spherulitic growth form.

In this work, the crystallization kinetics of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) matrix included with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) grafted silica (PEG-g-SiO2) nanoparticles and bare SiO2 were systematically investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized light optical microscopy (PLOM) method. PEG-g-SiO2 can significantly increase the crystallinity and crystallization temperature of PEO matrix under the non-isothermal crystallization process. Pronounced effects of PEG-g-SiO2 on the crystalline morphology and crystallization rate of PEO were further characterized by employing spherulitic morphological observation and isothermal crystallization kinetics analysis. In contrast to the bare SiO2, PEG-g-SiO2 can be well dispersed in PEO matrix at low P/N (P: Molecular weight of matrix chains, N: Molecular weight of grafted chains), which is a key factor to enhance the primary nucleation rate. In particular, we found that the addition of PEG-g-SiO2 slows the spherulitic growth fronts compared to the neat PEO. It is speculated that the interfacial structure of the grafted PEG plays a key role in the formation of nuclei sites, thus ultimately determines the crystallization behavior of PEO PNCs and enhances the overall crystallization rate of the PEO nanocomposites.

The hybrids combined by nano-materials with different dimensions usually possess much better enhancement effects than single one. Graphene oxide-carbon nanotubes hybrids / polyamide 6 composites has been fabricated. The non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of the as-prepared samples was discussed. Research results showed that increasing the cooling rate was in favor of increasing the crystallization rate and the degree of crystallinity for the as-prepared samples. Moreover, the crystallization rate was first decreased and then increased with increasing the hybrids loading. Furthermore, the crystallization mechanism was changed with increasing the crystallization temperature and the cooling rate. The nucleation and growth modes of the non-isothermal crystallization could be classified into three different types, according to the Ozawa’s theory. These complicated results could be attributed to the important role of crystallization rate as well as the simultaneous hindering and promoting effects of the as-prepared hybrids. This work has reference values for understanding the crystallization kinetics of the polyamide 6-based composites.

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.

Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics

This work investigated the combined effects of CNF nucleation (3 wt.%) and PLA-g-MA compatibilization at different loadings (1–4 wt.%) on the crystallization kinetics and mechanical properties of polylactic acid (PLA). A crystallization kinetics study was done through isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization kinetics using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. It was shown that PLA-g-MA had some effect on nucleation as exhibited by the value of crystallization half time and crystallization rate of the PLA/PLA-g-MA, which were increased by 180% and 172%, respectively, as compared to neat PLA when isothermally melt crystallized at 100 °C. Nevertheless, the presence of PLA-g-MA in PLA/PLA-g-MA/CNF3 nanocomposites did not improve the crystallization rate compared to that of uncompatibilized PLA/CNF3. Tensile strength was reduced with the increased amount of PLA-g-MA. Contrarily, Young’s modulus values showed drastic increment compared to the neat PLA, showing that the addition of the PLA-g-MA contributed to the rigidity of the PLA nanocomposites. Overall, it can be concluded that PLA/CNF nanocomposite has good performance, whereby the addition of PLA-g-MA in PLA/CNF may not be necessary for improving both the crystallization kinetics and tensile strength. The addition of PLA-g-MA may be needed to produce rigid nanocomposites; nevertheless, in this case, the crystallization rate of the material needs to be compromised.
