Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics and morphology of wollastonite-filled β-isotactic polypropylene composites

To obtain wollastonite-filled β-iPP composites, the wollastonite with β-nucleating surface (β-wollastonite) was prepared through chemical reaction between wollastonite with α-nucleating surface (α-wollastonite) and pimelic acid. The formation of calcium pimelate on the surface of wollastonite was proved using Fourier transform infrared spectrometry and scanning electron microscopy. The crystallization behavior, melting characteristics, non-isothermal crystallization kinetics, and crystalline morphologies of α- and β-wollastonite-filled iPP composites were studied by differential scanning calorimetry and polarizing optical microscopy. It is found that the crystallization peak temperatures of β-wollastonite-filled iPP composites were higher than that of α-wollastonite-filled iPP composites, which indicated that wollastonite with β-nucleating surface has stronger heterogeneous nucleation than that of wollastonite with α-nucleating surface. Although the crystallization temperatures of iPP and iPP composites decreased with increasing cooling rates, α-wollastonite-filled iPP composites mainly crystallized in α-spherulite and β-wollastonite-filled iPP composites formed β-spherulite. In addition, the spherulite size of β-wollastonite-filled iPP composites was smaller than that of α-wollastonite-filled iPP composites. Jeziorny and Mo methods were applicable to study the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of wollastonite-filled iPP composites. The activation energy (?E) and the nucleation efficiency (EN) of non-isothermal crystallization were calculated by Kissinger method and the equation proposed by Fillon, respectively. The β-wollastonite-filled iPP composites exhibited higher crystallization rate, activation energy, and EN than that of α-wollastonite-filled iPP composites.     

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.

Quick analysis of composition of semi-aromatic copolyamide via 13C NMR study

Standard high resolution ¹³C NMR spectra of PA10T, PA6T, PA106, and PA66 were obtained by a nonacidic solvent mixture of HFIP and CDCl₃. Several chemical shifts were found extremely sensitive to the polyamide type. According to the standard spectra, semi-aromatic copolyamides comprising PA10T, PA6T, PA106, and PA66 units could be distinguished. The ratio of each polyamide component in the copolyamide was determined through the integration of the methylene carbon peak associated with the amine group. ¹³C NMR analysis results were consistent with the theoretical values and copolyamide hydrolysis test results, making ¹³C NMR analysis quite reliable on the quick composition analysis of semi-aromatic copolyamides. Based on this technique, several commercial semi-aromatic copolyamides were further examined and their compositions were easily determined.     

纳米CaCO_3/相容剂/PP中的界面相互作用研究

采用不同相容剂(PP-g-MAH、POE-g-MAH和EVA-g-MAH)制备了不同界面相互作用的纳米CaCO3(CC)/相容剂/PP体系,研究了相容剂/PP和相容剂/CC界面相互作用对PP/CC的结晶形态、结晶行为、熔融特性和力学性能的影响.观察到PP/CC界面相互作用提高PP结晶温度和PP/CC的模量和冲击强度,但降低了屈服强度.相容剂/CC界面相互作用进一步提高了PP/CC的结晶温度.PP/相容剂界面相互作用取决于PP与相容剂相容性.PP/PP-g-MAH相容性高有利于提高PP/CC的异相成核作用和PP/CC屈服强度和模量,但降低冲击强度.PP/POE-g-MAH部分相容对相容剂/CC界面的异相成核作用、PP/CC屈服强度和模量影响不大,可明显提高冲击强度.但PP/EVA-g-MAH不相容导致PP/CC冲击强度明显降低.     

Chitosan-graft-poly(ϵ-caprolactone)s: An optimized chemical approach leading to a controllable structure and enhanced properties

A novel synthetic approach was developed for the controllable modification of chitosan (CS) with poly(ϵ-caprolactone) (PCL). 6-O-Triphenylmethyl-chitosan (TMCS) was synthesized as a highly soluble intermediate in organic solvents to facilitate an efficient grafting reaction of PCL onto CS in a homogeneous reaction medium. Subsequently, the syntheses of CS-g-PCL copolymers with different degrees of substitution (ds) and various chain lengths of PCL (number-average molecular weight = 1200–11,000) were carried out by a coupling reaction between the carboxylic terminal groups of PCL chains and the amino groups of TMCS. The successful grafting reaction was confirmed by GPC measurements, which indicated that the products were graft copolymers rather than physical blends. The ds, defined as the number of PCL chains per saccharide unit, of the graft copolymers could be adjusted simply by changes in the molar feed ratios of PCL to CS, and graft copolymers with different ds values ranging from 0.28 to 0.49 were synthesized, as calculated by ¹H NMR and elemental analysis. DSC and X-ray measurements showed that the melting temperature and enthalpy of the PCL grafts of these graft copolymers could be adjusted by the ds and the chains length of PCL, respectively. Meanwhile, the CS-g-PCL copolymers exhibited better solubility in various solvents, such as in chloroform for some of the resultant graft copolymers, than the original CS. Finally, nanoparticles of 100–200 nm, having hydrophobic PCL domains and cationic hydrophilic surfaces, were obtained through the self-assembly of the copolymers in selective solvents. These types of graft copolymers have great potential in various applications, such as targeted drug and gene delivery as well as tissue engineering. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of UHMWPE composites filled by oligomer-modified CaCO3

The processability of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) improved by oligomer-modified calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) was observed in our previous work. In order to understand the effect of oligomer-modified CaCO₃ on the crystallization of UHMWPE, the non-isothermal crystallization behavior and crystallization kinetics of UHMWPE composites filled by oligomer-modified CaCO₃ was studied by differential scanning calorimetry in this work. Jeziorny and Mo methods were used to describe the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of UHMWPE composites. The effect of modified filler content and cooling rate on the crystallization temperature and crystallization rate was discussed. The heterogeneous nucleation of modified CaCO₃ slightly increases the crystallization temperature of UHMWPE. The crystallization enthalpy of UHMWPE composites is significantly higher than that of UHMWPE. The crystallization rate of UHMWPE composites depends on the filler contents and cooling rate.

     

Preparation,non-isothermal crystallization,and melting behavior of β-nucleated isotactic polypropylene/poly (ethylene terephthalate) blends

β-nucleated PP/PET blends were prepared using nano-CaCO₃ supported β-nucleating agent (β-NA), PP as matrix, and PET as dispersion phase. The effects of preparation methods, PET content, and melting temperature on the non-isothermal crystallization behavior and the melting characteristic and polymorphic composition of PP in the blends were investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD). The results indicated that the PP crystallized predominantly in β-modification in the presence of β-NA. However, efficiency of β-NA for PP crystallization decreased with addition of PET and increasing PET contents. The β-nucleation of β-NA for PP crystallization in the blends was dependant on the preparation methods. The high β-nucleation and high β-PP content were obtained for PP/PET blend prepared at the temperature of 265 °C and added the β-NA into the blend at the temperature of 180 °C. However, the addition of β-PP or β-NA into blends at 265 °C decreased the β-nucleation, and no β-PP was formed because the β-NA mainly dispersed on the PET dispersion phase or at the interface between PP and PET.
