Quantum Modelling of Poly(vinylidene Fluoride)

Emulsion templating of poly(lactic acid) particles: droplet formation behavior.

Monodisperse poly(DL-lactic acid) (PLA) particles of diameters between 11 and 121 μm were fabricated in flow focusing glass microcapillary devices by evaporation of dichloromethane (DCM) from emulsion droplets at room temperature. The dispersed phase was 5% (w/w) PLA in DCM containing 0.1-2 mM Nile Red and the continuous phase was 5% (w/w) poly(vinyl alcohol) in reverse osmosis water. Particle ...

Density Functional Theory calculations of the ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride- chlorotrifluoroethylene) copolymer, compared to those of poly(vinylidene fluoride)

The quantum mechanics calculations of the energetics and structures corresponding to the different representatives structural conformations of poly(vinylidene fluoridetrifluoroethylene) and poly(vinylidene fluoridechlorotrifluoroethylene) copolymers show that the all-trans, Tp conformation, is energetically stabilized even with a chlorine substituent. The changes in the molecular arrangement as...

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...
