Abstract:

Abstract.In this paper, the nonisothermal crystallization kinetics was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry for the poly(m-xylylene adipamide) (MXD6) which were prepared by polymerization in reactor. The Avrami theory modified by Jeziorny and Z.S. Mo equation were used to describe the nonisothermal crystallization kinetics. The analysis based on the Avrami theory modified by Jeziorny shows that the Avrami exponent n of MXD6 ranges from 2.3 to 3.3, Moreover, both Avrami exponent (n) were around 3.0, which probably suggests a thermal nucleation and a three-dimensional crystal growth. The good linearity of the plots indicates the successful application of Z.S. Mo method in this case.
