Polymer crystalline orientation resulting from melt deformation and solidification of talc and mica filled polyethylene compounds

An experimental study is presented of orientation of polymer crystallographic axes in talc and mica filled polyethylene which has been extruded from various dies, melt spun and compression molded. The data is interpreted in terms of uniaxial crystalline orientation factors. It is observed that in all cases theb crystallographic axis of the polyethylene seems to be oriented normal to the surfaces of the mica and talc flakes.     

Nonisothermal crystallization and melting behavior of mPE/LLDPE/LDPE ternary blends

Nonisothermal crystallization kinetics of ternary blends of the metallocence polyethylene (mPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) were studied using DSC at various scanning rates. The Ozawa theory and a method developed by Mo were employed to describe the nonisothermal crystallization process of the two selected ternary blends. The results speak that Mo method is successful in describing the nonisothermal crystallization process of mPE/LLDPE/LDPE ternary blends, while Ozawa theory is not accurate to interpret the whole process of nonisothermal crystallization. Each ternary blend in this study shows different crystallization and melting behavior due to its different mPE content. The crystallinity of the ternary blends rises with increasing mPE content, and mPE improve the crystallization of the blends at low temperature. The crystallization activation energy of the five ternary blends that had been calculated from Vyazovkin method was increased with mPE content, indicating that the more mPE in the blends, the easier the nucleus or microcrystallites form at the primary stage of nonisothermal crystallization. LLDPE and mPE may form mixed crystals due to none separated-peaks were observed around the main melting or crystallization peak when the ternary blends were heating or cooling. The fixed small content of LDPE made little influence on the main crystallization behavior of the ternary blends and the crystallization behavior was mainly determined by the content of mPE and LLDPE.     

Advances and approaches for chemical recycling of plastic waste

The global production and consumption of plastics has increased at an alarming rate over the last few decades. The accumulation of pervasive and persistent waste plastic has concomitantly increased in landfills and the environment. The societal, ecological, and economic problems of plastic waste/pollution demand immediate and decisive action. In 2015, only 9% of plastic waste was successfully recycled in the United States. The major current recycling processes focus on the mechanical recycling of plastic waste; however, even this process is limited by the sorting/pretreatment of plastic waste and degradation of plastics during the process. An alternative to mechanical processes is chemical recycling of plastic waste. Efficient chemical recycling would allow for the production of feedstocks for various uses including fuels and chemical feedstocks to replace petrochemicals. This review focuses on the most recent advances for the chemical recycling of three major polymers found in plastic waste: PET, PE, and PP. Commercial processes for recycling hydrolysable polymers like polyesters or polyamides, polyolefins, or mixed waste streams are also discussed.     

Rheology and Physical Properties of Polyethylene/Polyethylene‐Ionomer Blends and their Clay Nanocomposites

Rheological and solid‐state physical properties of blends containing high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) and a polyampholyte derivative (PE‐g‐PA) are assessed along with their onium ion‐exchanged montmorillonite clay (NR‐MM) nanocomposites. Strong deviations from the log‐additivity rule of zero‐shear viscosity, combined with synergistic behavior in tensile moduli, are consistent with a multi‐phase blend morphology. While this affects clay dispersion in filled blends, PE‐g‐PA/HDPE based nanocomposites are shown to exhibit a favorable balance between material stiffness and ductility.

     

Structural effects on thermal properties and morphology in XLPE

This study investigated the morphological, thermal and mechanical changes with increasing crosslink density for two low density polyethylenes (LDPE). A reference LDPE was compared with an LDPE containing a higher number of vinyl groups that was introduced via a copolymerisation with a diene. During crosslinking, two reactions simultaneously occur in the copolymer, i.e. a reaction of the vinyl groups and combination crosslinking. After crosslinking with a low amount of peroxide, the majority of the crosslinks originate from reacted vinyl groups in the LDPE containing the higher number of vinyl groups, whereas the crosslinks in the reference LDPE originate from combination crosslinking, thus leading to different crosslinked structures for the two polymers. The melt temperature, crystallisation temperature, and degree of crystallinity were measured using a Differential Scanning Calorimeter. Thermal fractionation studies and morphology studies were also made. The Differential Scanning Calorimetry results show a decrease in those properties for both materials along with a concurrent change in the morphology when the crosslink density increased. The results deviate slightly between the materials.     

Stress - Optical Behaviour of Polymers

Summary: The collaborative research between Stepto and colleagues at Manchester University and Ward and colleagues at Leeds University is discussed in terms of its general significance for understanding the development of molecular orientation which occurs during the stretching of polymers. Cross-linked polyethylene and polyethylene terephthalate are chosen as the key examples, with particular reference to their stress optical behaviour. Infra-red spectroscopy is shown to be a valuable tool to validate the methodology developed by Stepto and his colleagues for modelling the behaviour of rubber-like networks.
