β-PHASE CRYSTALLIZATION OF ISOTACTIC POLYPROPYLENE

Effects of cooling rate and crystallization and melt temperatures on the melting curves of predomi-nately β-phase isotactic polypropylene (IPP) were investigated by using DSC instrument. Experimental re-sults indicate that the magnitude of βmelting endctherm increases with decreasing cooling rate and withincreasing crystallization temperature. The temperature of melt has no effect on the β-phase crystallizationof IPP below 300℃, but a further increase of the melt temperature will destroy the β-phase nuclei,then the β-phase crystals will not be produced upon cooling. The linear growth rates of α- and β-phasespherulites were determined as a function of temperature between 123 and 140℃. It was found that thegrowth rate of βspherulites is higher than that of αspherulites below 140℃. Studies of the kinetics ofβ-phase crystallization of IPP were also made using a DSC instrument. The results obtained do not fitthe usual Avrami equation. But it can be described by kinetic theory of imcomplete spher     

聚丙烯β相结晶的研究

本文研究了冷却速率、结晶温度和熔体温度等因素对聚丙烯β相结晶得到的试样的熔融行为的影响。发现β晶型熔融峰的面积随冷却速率的降低或结晶温度的升高而增加。在低于300℃的温度下,熔体温度对聚丙烯的β相结晶无影响。300℃以上的高温破坏了聚丙烯β相结晶的晶核,冷却结晶时不再生成β相晶体。测定了α相及β相球晶在123—140℃的温度范围内线性增长速率,发现在140℃以下,β球晶的增长速率大于α球晶。研究了β相结晶动力学,发现聚丙烯β相结晶不符合Avrami方程,而要用不完全球晶结晶的动力学理论来描述。     

MULTIPLE MELTING BEHAVIOR OF β-CRYSTALLINE PHASE POLYPROPYLENE

Differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction experiments on β-nucleated polypropylene were made on the samples crystallized at different temperatures and processed by injection molding. The crystal perfection was shown to vary with crystallization temperature. The observed multiple peaks could be related to a ill-phase with defective inclination of the chains, a recrystallized or original β_2-phase of more perfect inclination, and the α-phase. Injection molded samples could be analyzed from the established DSC interpretation.     

β晶型聚丙烯的力学性质

研究了主要含β晶型的聚丙烯在不同温度下的应力-应变性质,并与同一商品牌号得到的α晶型聚丙烯作了对比。发现,β晶型试样的屈服强度低于α晶型,而抗冲击强度则比α晶型试样高1—2倍。结合X射线衍射法对β晶型试样在拉伸过程中发生的晶型转变的研究及形变的分子机制解释了二种晶型试样在力学性质上的差异。     

β晶相聚丙烯的研究——Ⅲ. 乙丙嵌段共聚物

乙丙嵌段共聚物中的丙烯链段在β晶型成核剂存在下,可在20—140℃结晶成高纯度的β晶型。研究了结晶温度对试样中β晶型的相对含量及试样熔融行为的影响。发现依赖于结晶温度、形成了二类β晶型。在20—100℃淬火形成的β晶型、熔融后会重结晶成稳定的β晶型,在高于100℃结晶则形成稳定的β晶型。研究了β晶型试样的力学性质,发现其屈服强度低于而抗冲强度高于α晶型试样。
