聚2-吡咯烷酮的非等温结晶动力学

用差示量热扫描热分析仪(DSC)测试了不同降温速率下聚2-吡咯烷酮(PPD)样品的温度-热焓曲线,样品黏均分子量为2.2×10~4,熔点为272℃。采用Jeziorny法、Ozawa法和莫志深法分析了PPD的非等温结晶动力学。结果表明,在给定降温速率范围内,Ozawa法不适用于描述PPD的非等温结晶动力学过程,Jeziorny法只适用于描述PPD的主结晶阶段,而莫志深法能很好地描述整个结晶过程。Jeziorny法处理结果表明,PPD主结晶阶段的Avrami指数(n)为1.68~1.78,晶体生长为准二维生长。莫志深法处理结果表明,在单位结晶时间里达到某一相对结晶度所需的降温速率随相对结晶度的增加而增大。用Kissinger方程求得PPD的非等温结晶活化能为-31.9kJ/mol。

Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(trimethylene terephthalate)/poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) blends

The glass-transition temperature and non-isothermal crystallization of poly(trimethylene terephthalate)/poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PTT/PEN) blends were investigated by using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The results suggested that the binary blends showed different crystallization and melting behaviors due to their different component of PTT and PEN. All of the samples exhibited a single glass-transition temperature, indicating that the component PTT and PEN were miscible in amorphous phase. The value of T_g predicted well by Gordon-Taylor equation decreased gradually with increasing of PTT content. The commonly used Avrami equation modified by Jeziorny, Ozawa theory and the method developed by Mo were used, respectively, to fit the primary stage of non-isothermal crystallization. The kinetic parameters suggested that the PTT content improved the crystallization of PEN in the binary blend. The crystallization growth dimension, crystallization rate and the degree of crystallinity of the blends were increased with the increasing content of PTT. The effective activation energy calculated by the advanced iso-conversional method developed by Vyazovkin also concluded that the value of E_a depended not only on the system but also on temperature, that is, the binary blend with more PTT component had higher crystallization ability and the crystallization ability is increased with increasing temperature. The kinetic parameters U^* and K_g were also determined, respectively, by the Hoffman-Lauritzen theory.

本文用解偏振光法与DSC法分别测定并研究了PC/PET/EPDM共混体系的结晶速度、结晶度、Avrami指数(n)和熔融温度及其影响因素,共混物中PET的结晶速度、结晶度均随PC含量增加而下降;EPDM用量不超过10%时,可提高PET的结晶速度,但不影响结晶度和成核与增长方式,n值不变。当EPDM为5%时,结晶速度呈现极大值。经退火处理的共混物呈现熔融双峰,PC量增加,高温熔融峰略移向高温方向;热处理温度升高或时间延长,则低温熔融峰移向高温方向。     

Isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of branched and partially crosslinked PET

The crystallization kinetics of branched and partially crosslinked poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), prepared using trimethyl trimellitate as branching agent was studied using DSC and WAXD. Crystallization rates were retarded with increasing branching agent content. Avrami equation was used in the isothermal crystallization, while for the non-isothermal process the Ozawa model was applied. Isothermal crystallization half-times increased with branching agent content and crystallization peak temperatures during cooling, decreased. WAXD showed big broadening and reduced degree of crystallinity compared to the neat polyester. Though, the crystal lattice parameters did not seem to alter, crystal size reduction was evidenced.     

Isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) under the influence of self-seeding nucleation

The effect of self-seeding nucleation on the crystallization behavior of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) was studied. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) indicated that the crystallization temperature of PTT notably increased after self-seeding nucleation. Avrami equation was applied in the analysis of the isothermal crystallization process of PTT. The resulting average value of the Avrami exponent at n = 3.34 suggests that primary crystallization may correspond to a three-dimensional spherulitic growth. Self-seeding nucleation, leading to a decrease in active energy for crystallization and chain folding work, promotes the overall crystallization process of PTT.

Melting behaviors,crystallization kinetics,and spherulitic morphologies of poly(butylene succinate) and its copolyester modified with rosin maleopimaric acid anhydride

This article investigated the melting behaviors, crystallization kinetics, and spherulitic morphologies of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) and its copolyester (PBSR) modified with rosin maleopimaric acid anhydride, using wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and polarized optical microscope. Subsequent DSC scans of isothermally crystallized PBS and PBSR exhibited two melting endotherms, respectively, which was due to the melt‐recrystallization process occurring during the DSC scans. The equilibrium melting point of PBSR (125.9 °C) was lower than that of PBS (139 °C). The commonly used Avrami equation was used to describe the isothermal crystallization kinetics. For nonisothermal crystallization studies, the model combining Avrami equation and Ozawa equation was employed. The result showed a consistent trend in the crystallization process. The crystallization rate was decreased, the perfection of crystals was decreased, the recrystallization was reduced, and the spherulitic morphologies were changed when the huge hydrogenated phenanthrene ring was added into the chain of PBS. The activation energy (ΔE) for the isothermal crystallization process determined by Arrhenius method was 255.9 kJ/mol for PBS and 345.7 kJ/mol for PBSR. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Nonisothermal crystallization and morphology of poly(butylene succinate)/layered double hydroxide nanocomposites

Biodegradable poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) and layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites were prepared via melt blending in a twin-screw extruder. The morphology and dispersion of LDH nanoparticles within PBS matrix were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which showed that LDH nanoparticles were found to be well distributed at the nanometer level. The nonisothermal crystallization behavior of nanocomposites was extensively studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique at various cooling rates. The crystallization rate of PBS was accelerated by the addition of LDH due to its heterogeneous nucleation effect; however, the crystallization mechanism and crystal structure of PBS remained almost unchanged. In kinetics analysis of nonisothermal crystallization, the Ozawa approach failed to describe the crystallization behavior of PBS/LDH nanocomposites, whereas both the modified Avrami model and the Mo method well represented the crystallization behavior of nanocomposites. The effective activation energy was estimated as a function of the relative degree of crystallinity using the isoconversional analysis. The subsequent melting behavior of PBS and PBS/LDH nanocomposites was observed to be dependent on the cooling rate. The POM showed that the small and less perfect crystals were formed in nanocomposites.

Effect of the ionic aggregation on the crystallisation behavior of poly(ethylene) part of ionomer

The influence of ionic interaction on the melt-crystallization behavior of the ethylene ionomer was studied using modulated DSC (MDSC^TM), wide angle X-ray scattering (XRD) and hot stage microscopy. The kinetics of the crystallization process of the ionomer was evaluated using isothermal differential scanning calorimetry (iso-DSC). Wide-angle X-ray scattering was used to examine the d spacing of poly(ethylene) part. The crystallinity of the poly(ethylene) part of ionomer measured from XRD is found to be 24%, which is comparable to that obtained from MDSC^TM. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) results show that the clusters and multiplets exist in the ionomer, and the cluster is about 127Ĺ. The kinetics of crystallization process obtained using Avrami equation shows that the crystallization process is fundamentally similar to poly(ethylene) as it goes through nucleation and propagation stages of the crystals. However, the morphology of the crystal appears to be different and influenced by clusters (platelike and/or needle-shaped) as evident from Avrami constant. This is different from the poly(ethylene) (which is spherulitic in nature) due to polar cluster and hydrophobic PE melt interaction. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Morphology, isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(methylene terephthalate)

The morphology of crystals, isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization of poly(methylene terephthalate) (PMT) have been investigated by using polarized optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The POM photographs displayed only several Maltese cross at the beginning short time of crystallization indicating that some spherulites had been formed. The crystal cell belonged to the Triclinic crystal systems and the cell dimensions were calculated from the WAXD pattern. The commonly used Avrami equation and that modified by Jeziorny were used, respectively, to fit the primary stage of isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization. The Ozawa theory was also used to analyze the primary stage of non-isothermal crystallization. The Avrami exponents n were evaluated to be in the range of 2-3 for isothermal crystallization, and 3-4 for non-isothermal crystallization. The Ozawa exponents m were evaluated to be in the range of 1-3 for non-isothermal crystallization in the range of 135-155 °C. The crystallization activation energy was calculated to be −78.8 kJ/mol and −94.5 kJ/mol, respectively, for the isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization processes by the Arrhenius’ formula and the Kissinger’s methods.     

Melt crystallization and segmental dynamics of poly(ethylene oxide) confined in a solid electrolyte composite

The isothermal melt crystallization and the corresponding segmental dynamics, of a high molecular weight poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) confined by Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO) particles in solid electrolyte composites, were monitored by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS), respectively. Our results show that the overall crystallinity is positively correlated with the surface area of LLZO particles. The primary and secondary crystallization processes are identified by a modified Avrami equation, while two dynamic modes, the α relaxation and α′ relaxation, were in the DRS measurements. The results reveal an unambiguous correlation between the primary crystallization and the α relaxation, while a correlation between the second crystallization and the α′ relaxation concurrently exist in the electrolyte composites. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Crystallization kinetics study of poly(L‐lactic acid)/carbon nanotubes nanocomposites

Effects of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on the isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) were quantitatively investigated using the Avrami equation and the secondary nucleation theory of Lauritzen and Hoffman. CNT via grafting modification with PLLA could well disperse in the PLLA matrix and give significantly enhanced crystallization rate and crystallinity of PLLA as analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy. Analysis of isothermal crystallization kinetics using the Avrami equation demonstrated that CNT significantly enhanced the bulk crystallization of PLLA. Analysis of spherulite growth kinetics using the secondary nucleation theory of Lauritzen and Hoffman found that CNT could expand the temperature range of the crystallization regime III of PLLA. Values of the nucleation constant (K_g) in crystallization regimes III and II of PLLA both increased with increasing CNT contents. The K_g III/K_g II ratios were found to be close to the theoretical value 2 but were not clearly found to depend on the CNT contents. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Isothermal crystallization behavior of PP and PP-g-GMA copolymer at high undercooling

The study involves synthesis of polypropylene grafted with glycidyl methacrylate (PP-g-GMA) using three different initiators, benzoyl peroxide, dicumyl peroxide and tertiary butyl cumyl peroxide (TBSP). Among the peroxides used, dicumyl peroxide resulted in considerable reduction of molecular weight of the resulting graft copolymer. The melting/crystallization behavior and isothermal crystallization kinetics of PP homopolymer and PP-g-GMA copolymers were studied with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at high undercooling (44–60°C). The results showed that the degree of crystallinity and overall crystallization rate of copolymers is greater than that of virgin PP. Among the three initiators used, TBCP exhibited lowest half crystallization time. The isothermal crystallization kinetics of the PP and copolymers was described with the Avrami equation and Sestak-Berggren (SB) equation. The Avrami exponent n of the PP and copolymers were found to be in the range 1.03 to 1.41 at high undercooling conditions employed in this study. The agreement between the values of n calculated from SB kinetics and Avrami equation is satisfactory with few exceptions. The crystallization rate of PP-g-GMA copolymer was found to be more sensitive to temperature. The isothermally crystallized samples showed a single melting peak for PP while a double peak at lower temperature was recorded for PP-g-GMA copolymer samples. The equilibrium melting point was deduced according to Hoffman-Weeks theory. The decrease of recorded for the PP modified with GMA suggests that the thermodynamic stability of the PP crystals is influenced by the chemical interactions.     

Isothermal crystallization kinetics and melting behaviour of PET/ATO nanocomposites prepared by in situ polymerization

Neat poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and PET/antimony doped tin oxide (ATO) nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization. The study of the isothermal crystallization behaviors of neat PET and PET/ATO nanocomposites was carried out using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The crystallization kinetics under isothermal conditions could be described by the Avrami equation. For neat PET and PET/ATO nanocomposites, the Avrami exponent n both decreased with increasing crystallization temperature. In addition, for the same crystallization temperature, the value of n increased with increasing ATO content. These suggested that the crystallization types related to the values of n in the Avrami theory could not be suitable for the crystallization of PET and its nanocomposites. The change of the n values indicated that the addition of ATO resulted in the increase of the crystallizing growth points. That is a heterogeneous nucleating effect of ATO on crystallization of PET. In the DSC scan after isothermal crystallization process, multiple melting behavior was found. And the multiple endotherms could be attributed to melting of the recrystallized materials or the secondary lamellae produced during different crystallization processes. The equilibrium melting temperature of PET in the nanocomposites increased with increasing the ATO content. Surface free energy of PET chain folding for crystallization of PET/ATO nanocomposites was lower than that of neat PET, confirming the heterogeneous nucleation effect of ATO.
