剪切条件下等规聚丙烯的结晶行为

聚丙烯是工业中应用最广泛的聚合物。聚丙烯在静态结晶时生成球晶，剪切后会生成排核，最终长成柱晶或纤维晶；在强剪切条件下会生成串晶。聚丙烯是一种存在多种晶型的聚合物，α型晶是热动力学最稳定的晶型，在一般实验条件下很难得到其他晶型；在剪切条件下聚丙烯会生成β晶-热动力学亚稳晶型。剪切会显著影响聚丙烯的结晶动力学：增加球晶的生长速率，缩短结晶诱导时间，增加活化晶核密度。人们提出了许多模型来解释剪切加速结晶动力学的实验现象，但是都有不足之处。

PLLA在稳态剪切场下的非等温结晶研究

利用光学流变显微镜(ORM)在线研究剪切场下左旋聚乳酸(PLLA)非等温结晶过程,采用差示扫描量热法(DSC)和广角X射线衍射(WAXD)研究了剪切后样品的热行为和结晶性能。实验结果表明,施加剪切作用不改变PLLA的晶型,但大大加快了结晶过程,提高了起始温度。PLLA在剪切场下的结晶形态主要受剪切速率的影响,当剪切速率高于临界剪切速率(10s-1)时,PLLA由球晶向串晶转变。随着剪切速率增大,串晶的数量变多变窄,结晶更完善,结晶度增大。与剪切速率相比,剪切时间对PLLA的非等温结晶影响影响较小。     

高剪切速率对PCL/RGO附生结晶行为影响的原位研究

以聚己内酯(PCL)/还原氧化石墨烯(RGO)复合材料为研究对象, 利用同步辐射小角X射线散射(SAXS)和广角X射线衍射(WAXD)原位分析了75 s^?1的高速率剪切作用前后的附生晶体结构演变及其对本体晶体形成的影响. 研究结果表明, 在剪切后降温160 s后, PCL分子链开始在RGO表面附生, 形成表面结晶层, 同时形成部分PCL本体晶体; 在200~480 s的等温结晶阶段, 大量PCL本体片晶生成并形成规整的周期结构. 较高的剪切速率使体系的黏度降低, 因此在较高的剪切温度下PCL分子链更容易由伸直链转变为无规线团, 不利于PCL分子链在RGO表面形成表面结晶层. 在剪切速率为75 s^?1时, 70 ℃的剪切温度更有利于PCL分子链在RGO表面附生形成表面结晶层.

Effects of filler size and heat treatment on the crystallization behavior of glass bead‐filled polypropylene

The effects of glass bead (GB) size and annealing temperature on the formation of β‐crystals of glass bead‐filled polypropylene (PP) are studied in this articles. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements indicated that the amount of β‐form in PP crystals was a function of the glass bead content and size. For a fixed glass bead content, it was found that the smaller the diameter of the glass bead, the higher was the content of β‐crystals formed in the PP. On the other hand, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) measurements revealed that the annealing temperature was also a major factor that affected the crystallization behavior of glass bead‐filled PP. It seemed that the blends with different glass bead contents had their own optimal annealing temperatures for β‐crystal formation. As an example, when the glass bead content was 48 wt %, the optimal annealing temperature for β‐crystal formation was about 108 °C, whereas it shifted to 100 °C for 14 wt % glass bead‐filled polypropylene. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel polypropylene composite filled by kaolin particles with β-nucleation

Kaolin-filled polypropylene (PP) composites generally form α-crystal due to the effect of kaolin with α-nucleation. The transition from α- to β-nucleation of kaolin has been investigated, and a novel kaolin with β-nucleation (β-kaolin) and kaolin-filled PP composites with high β-crystal content were prepared first. The DSC and WAXD results indicated that the β-kaolin exhibits stronger β-nucleating ability than CaPA as β-nucleating agent for PP crystallization. It is found that the β-crystal content has been influenced little by filler contents in β-kaolin-filled PP composites. Mechanical properties and spherulitic morphology of filled PP composites was characterized. The synergistic effect of filler and β-crystal significantly improved impact strength of kaolin-filled PP composites.

     

Preparation and crystallization of aluminum hydroxide-filled β-polypropylene composites

Aluminum hydroxide-filled polypropylene composites generally form α-crystal due to the strong heterogenous α-nucleation of filler. In order to utilize β-crystal PP with high toughness to prepare aluminum hydroxide-filled PP composites, the aluminum hydroxide-filled PP composites nucleated by calcium pimelate and PP composites filled by calcium pimelate-supported aluminum hydroxide were fabricated. The crystallization and melting behavior of filled composites were compared by differential scanning calorimetry. The influence of aluminum hydroxide contents on the β-crystal content in the filled PP composites was discussed. It is a novel effective method to prepare aluminum hydroxide-filled β-PP composites with calcium pimelate-nucleated aluminum hydroxide.     

Effects of hyperbranched poly(ester‐silane) as a coupling agent on the mechanical behavior of glass bead filled epoxy resin

Hyperbranched poly(ester‐silane)s (HPE‐Si, including HPE‐Si4 and HPE‐Si8) were synthesized for glass bead filled epoxy resins. The grafting reaction and the degree of grafting of HPE‐Si onto the surface of glass beads were characterized by Fourier transform infrared photoacoustic spectroscopy (FT‐IR‐PAS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) measurements. The degree of grafting was calculated to be in the range 1.0–4.2% for different HPE‐Si treatments. The tensile strength and modulus of glass bead filled epoxy resins were found to increase with increasing filler content. Moreover, HPE‐Si4 series have the highest tensile strength and modulus at the same glass bead size and volume fraction in the composites compared with HPE‐Si8 series. The fracture toughness (K_1c) of specimens with different glass bead sizes (4.8 and 2.0 μm) has the same trend that changes with the filler content and the modification of the surface of glass beads. The investigation of the toughening mechanism using Irwin's model through the yield stress measurements suggest that the toughening mechanism for small glass bead filled resins does not involve matrix plasticity, whereas the toughening mechanism involving matrix shear banding for large glass bead filled resins with higher filler content (up to 10 wt%) was proposed. The morphology of the filled resins studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the interface compatibility between the glass beads and epoxy matrix was greatly improved by the treatment with HPE‐Si.

Shear-induced crystallization in phase-separated blends of isotactic polypropylene with ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer

The compatibility between isotactic polypropylene(i PP) and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer(EPDM) in the blends was studied. SAXS analysis indicates that i PP and EPDM phases in the binary blend are incompatible. Isothermal crystallization behaviors of i PP in phase-separated i PP/EPDM were studied by in situ POM equipped with a Linkam shear hot stage. It was found that typical spherulites of i PP were formed both in neat i PP and in i PP/EPDM blends. The radial growth rate(d R/dt) of spherulites of i PP in the blend was not influenced by EPDM phases. Further investigations on isothermal crystallization of i PP in i PP/EPDM after shear with a fixed shear time showed that the crystallization rate of i PP in the blends increased with increasing shear rates, whereas, the crystallization rate was much lower than that of neat i PP. WAXD results showed that ?-crystal i PP was formed in neat i PP as well as in i PP/EPDM blends after shearing and the percentage of ?-crystal bore a relationship to the applied shear rate. The presence of EPDM resulted in lower percentage of ?-crystal in the blends than that in neat i PP under the same constant shear conditions. SAXS experiments revealed that shear flow could induce formation of oriented lamellae in i PP and i PP in the blends, and the presence of EPDM led to a reduced fraction of oriented lamellae.     

Temperature-dependent β-Crystal Growth in Isotactic Polypropylene with β-Nucleating Agent after Shear Flow

In our current work, the effect of the shear temperature on the growth of β-crystal in isotactic polypropylene(iPP) with β-nucleating agent is investigated by means of in situ two-dimensional wide-angle X-ray diffraction(2 D-WAXD). At low shear temperatures, the formed shear-induced oriented precursors are hard to relax back to random coiled state due to the weak mobility of molecular chains. Therefore, plenty of oriented α-crystals are induced by shear-induced oriented precursors, while β-crystal is greatly depressed. As the shear temperature increases, oriented β-crystal gradually increases along with the decrease of α-crystal. It is deduced that the shear temperature at which the content of β-crystal increases to the(maximum) value found in quiescent crystallization is almost the same as that at which the accelerating effect of flow on crystallization kinetics is completely erased. Our work manifests its significance in regulating β-crystal and thus in the structure and property manipulation of i PP.     

Crystal phases,structure, and orientation in isotactic polypropylene after isothermal crystallization under oscillatory shear as a function of nucleation agent

2D wide-angle X-ray diffraction (2D-WAXD) measurement was performed to investigate the effects of both oscillatory shear and the nucleating agent on the crystalline structure distribution and orientation of isotactic polypropylene (iPP). 1,3:2,4-bis(p-methylbenzylidene) sorbitol (MDBS) and 1,3:2,4-di(3,4-dimethylbenzylidene) sorbitol (DMDBS) can induce α-PP and β-PP simultaneously. The presence of MDBS (or DMDBS) and oscillatory strain (oscillatory frequency is fixed) exhibits a synergistic interaction on increasing the content of β-crystals of iPP. Under the oscillatory shear field at the fixed oscillatory strain, the β-crystal content and the orientation of iPP with and without MDBS (or DMDBS) change slightly with the increase of the oscillatory frequency. Comparing with MDBS (or DMDBS) nucleated iPP crystallization under shear field, the periodically changed flow direction of the oscillatory shear field leads to the shorter α-row nuclei, weaker orientation but more β-crystals of the nucleated iPP.     

剪切作用下PA1010/PP共混物的形态与性能研究

通过动态保压注射成型方法制备了聚酰胺1010/聚丙烯(PA1010/PP)共混物,并研究了形态与性能的关系.力学性能测试结果表明在熔体冷却过程中施加剪切可以大大提高共混物的拉伸强度、拉伸模量和缺口冲击强度,当PP的质量分数为20%时,共混物的缺口冲击强度达到21.3kJ/m2,是静态样的3倍多,拉伸强度达到50.9MPa,是静态样的1.5倍.扫描电镜(SEM)结果表明在动态保压样的横断面可以观察到剪切诱导的形态,中间是芯层,围绕着芯层的是剪切层,最外面是皮层,相区尺寸显著减小、分散相分散更趋均匀,特别是PP的质量分数为20%时,相区尺寸从原来的约3.9μm降低到约1.4μm.动态保压样机械性能的提高归因于剪切作用下独特相形态的形成,分子链沿流动方向的取向是拉伸强度提高的主要原因,而剪切使分散相颗粒变小和剪切层中分子链的取向是冲击强度提高的主要原因.

The effect of compatibilizing and coupling agents on the mechanical properties of glass bead filled PP/PET blends

PP/PET blends (95/5) filled with 50% by weight of glass beads were prepared and studied at morphological and mechanical level, and compared with its analogous samples of glass bead-filled PP. The influence of a compatibilizing agent (maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene) and different silane coupling agents was analysed. It has been found that PET embeds glass bead surface independently on the silane coupling agent employed. Addition of MAPP in PP/PET blends leaded to tensile strength values similar to those of unfilled PP, but rupture takes place in a brittle manner.
