Polypropylene/organoclay modified by dodecanol phase change material were prepared by melt blending method. The thermal stability and crystallization behavior was studied by thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). TG results indicated the window of processing of PP could be improved by adding small amount organoclay modified by dodecanol to the blend. DSC showed the organoclay modified by dodecanol affected the crystallization behavior of PP as heterogeneous nucleation agent. XRD results show that the organoclay modified by dodecanol does not change the crystal structure in the blends but only decrease the intensity of the diffraction peak.

Polypropylene (PP)/Maleic anhydride grafted poly (ethylene-octene) (POEg) were prepared by melt blending method. The crystallization behavior and crystal morphology were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and polarzing optical microscope (POM). Differential scanning colorimetry (DSC) experiments showed that the melting point and crystallization point decreased when POEg added to the blend. XRD results show that the POEg not change the crystal structure in the blends but only decrease the intensity of the diffraction peak. The spherulitic structure could also observed when added POEg to the matix of PP, but the shape of the spherulites distorted.

Polypropylene (PP)/ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) blends were prepared using a twin-screw extruder by melt blending method. The influences of the EVA contents in PP/EVA blends on crystallization behavior and mechanical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). XRD results show that the EVA not change the crystal structure in the blends but only decrease the intensity of the diffraction peak. DSC results showed that the melting point and crystallization point decreased when EVA added to the blend. The tensile properties of PP/EVA blend become much better.

Poly (l-lactic acid) (PLLA) is a promising biomedical polymer material with a wide range of applications. The diverse enantiomeric forms of PLLA provide great opportunities for thermal and mechanical enhancement through stereocomplex formation. The addition of poly (d-lactic acid) (PDLA) as a nucleation agent and the formation of stereocomplex crystallization (SC) have been proven to be an effective method to improve the crystallization and mechanical properties of the PLLA. In this study, PLLA was blended with different amounts of PDLA through a melt blending process and their properties were calculated. The effect of the PDLA on the crystallization behavior, thermal, and mechanical properties of PLLA were investigated systematically by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), polarized optical microscopy (POM), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and tensile test. Based on our findings, SC formed easily when PDLA content was increased, and acts as nucleation sites. Both SC and homo crystals (HC) were observed in the PLLA/PDLA blends. As the content of PDLA increased, the degree of crystallization increased, and the mechanical strength also increased.

In this work, a phase-change energy storage nonwoven fabric was made of polyurethane phase-change material (PUPCM) by a non-woven melt-blown machine. Polyethylene glycol 2000 was used as the phase transition unit and diphenyl-methane-diisocyanate as the hard segment to prepare PUPCM. Thermal stability of the PUPCM was evaluated through thermal stability analysis. The performance of pristine PUPCM was determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry to analyze the spinning technology of spinning temperature and the stretching process. Phase-change energy storage nonwoven fabric (413.22 g/m2) was prepared, and the morphology, solid–solid exothermic phase transition, mechanical properties, and the structures were characterized. The enthalpy of solid–solid exothermic phase transition reached 60.17 mJ/mg (peaked at 23.14°C). The enthalpy of solid–solid endothermic phase transition reached 67.09 mJ/mg (peaked at 34.34°C). The strength and elongation of phase-change energy storage nonwoven fabric were found suitable for garments and tent fabrics.

The paper describes the research on the method of production of granulated phase-change materials (PCM) used in construction industry for the accumulation of thermal energy. As mineral materials for the granules preparation zeolite from fly ash Na-P1 and natural diatomite dust were used which were impregnated with paraffinic filtration waste and granulated using a combined granulation method. Obtained granules were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherm, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Mechanical strength of the materials was determined in a “drop strength” test. Performed analyses revealed that mineral composition and micromorphology of the diatomite and zeolite granules were varied, with zeolite granules having higher mechanical strength.

A new type of shape stabilized phase change material (PCM) with good heat storage was produced by intercalating myristic acid (MA) with modifid montmorillonite (MMT). The structure, thermal properties of the composite PCM were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis technique. In the XRD analysis, expansions of the d spacings in the (001) plane were observed in all samples, indicating that the intercalation of MA in the interlayers of MMT was successfully achieved. The results of DSC indicated that the shape stabilized PCM displayed a high heat capacity (133.6 J.g-1)

AbstractPoly(l-lactide) (PLLA)/poly(d-lactide) (50/50) with plasticizer contents ranging from 2% to 16% w/w were prepared by melt blending using an internal mixer. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry results confirmed that complete stereocomplex polylactide crystallites without any homocrystallites were produced. Compared to neat PLLA, the melting temperature of the stereocomplex polylactide and its plasticized samples was approximately 55°C higher. Higher plasticizer contents decreased glass transition temperature of the stereocomplex, which implied higher flexibility and enhanced the crystallization rate. However, the plasticizer in the stereocomplex reduced the thermal stability.

A new type of form-stable phase change material (PCM) with good heat storage was prepared by impregnation of stearic acid (SA) into the interlayer of modified montmorillonite (MMT). The structure, thermal properties of the composite PCM were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis technique.

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)/functionalized graphene blends were prepared by solution blend method. The structure, thermal properties, thermal degradation and crystalline morphology were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry (TG), and polarizing optical microscopy (POM) analyses. Experimental results indicated that FGO increase the intensity of diffraction peak. Small-sized PHBV spherulites were formed. FGO affects the crystallization behavior of PHBV as heterogeneous nucleation agent. FGO acts as an effective thermal barrier due to its large aspect ratio and thereby hinders the degradtion of PHBV.
