Enthalpy Relaxation during Non-Isothermal Crystallization from the Melt of Polymer: For IPP as Example

Article Preview

Abstract:

The enthalpy relaxation rate (rh) is defined by enthalpy change in unit time to describe non-isothermal crystallization behavior of iPP from its melt. Dates of rh are transformed from those of heat flow rate which are collected by means of DSC directly. The curve by plotting with rh to time indicates that the process of non-isothermal crystallization can be separated into two stages by the time point of inflection at rh curve. The two stages are called stage Ⅰand stage Ⅱ. The curve of rh is differentiated and the curve of Ah produced. There are two time inflection point in curve of Ah. Combined different trends of rh and Ah during the whole process, the non-isothermal crystallization are further separated into four sub-stages, which are called stage Ⅰ1, stage Ⅰ2, stage Ⅱ1 and stage Ⅱ2. The critical values of time and relative crystallization degree which divide the process of non-isothermal crystallization of iPP are present. It provides one new method to uncover the details of non-isothermal crystallization process.
