Dynamic Viscoelasticity of Poly(butylene terephthalate) during Isothermal Crystallization

Isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(ethylene terephthalate) and poly(methyl methacrylate) blends

Different kinetic models like the Avrami, Tobin and Urbanovici-Segal models have been applied for determining the isothermal crystallization kinetics of virgin poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and PET/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends. The different compositions investigated were PET90/PMMA10, PET75/PMMA25 and PET50/PMMA50 [wt/wt%]. The experimental data was fitted using Solver, a non-l...

Non-isothermal Crystallization of Polymers

This paper is devoted to the study of mathematical problems arising in the modelling of nonisothermal polymer crystallization under industrial conditions. A review of the hybrid stochastic-deterministic modelling procedure, which yields an averaged model 5;8 , is given and supplied by the study of mathematical problems arising from it. Furthermore, multiple scale eeects in the crystallization p...

Isothermal Melt Crystallization Kinetic Behavior of Poly (vinylidene fluoride)

Isothermal melt crystallization kinetics of PVDF was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. Thin PVDF film has been fabricated by the solvent casting technique using dimethylformamide (DMF). Then, the samples were melted and subsequently crystallized in the range of the crystallization temperature (Tc) between 138 and 145 °C. The crystallization kinetics was derived from Avrami equa...

Non-isothermal Primary Crystallization Kinetics of the Amorphous Fe85.3B11P3Cu0.7 Alloy

In the present research, the primary crystallization kinetics of the amorphous Fe85.3B11P3Cu0.7 alloy was analyzed using non-isothermal DSC measurements. The average and local activation energies, Ea, were determined by different isokinetic and isoconversional methods. The results obtained for activation energy in this research, show that due to the complexity of the primary crystallization pro...
