The low density polyethylene (LDPE)/ethylene-octene copolymer (POE) blend films and LDPE/POE/inorganic particle composite films were prepared. By means of DSC method, the crystallization capability and the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of LDPE composite films were investigated, the results show that the addition of DE can reduce the interfacial free energy of the crystal and the active energy of a nucleus, resulting in stable nuclei can be formed at lower supercooling, which makes the polymer crystallized successfully at high temperatures. By selecting data processing method of Mo ZS and modified Jeziorny, the results indicate that the DE play a role of heterogeneous nucleation agent in the process of crystallization and increased the crystalline rate of LDPE.

The isothermal crystallization kinetics of PP with different contents of AB2 hyperbranched polyester(HBP) added has been investigated. The results show that HBP acts as a nucleating agent for PP, and the hyperbranched polyester can decrease the half crystallization time (t1/2) and increase the crystallization rate of PP greatly. The Avrami exponents of PP and nucleated PP are all close to 2.5. Hoffman theory was adopted to calculate the interfacial free energy per unit area perpendicular to PP chains σe of PP and PP/HBP blends.

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.
