On the Orientation-Induced Crystallization of Polymers
In order to understand orientation-induced crystallization of polymers, we introduced an intermolecular interaction between polymer chains based on quantum mechanics. We therefore considered a pair of perfectly extended chains where the intermolecular interaction is assumed to be based on the hydrogen interaction with a single chain. When two protons of each extended chain become closer togethe...
متن کاملA computational model for processing of semi-crystalline polymers: The effects of flow-induced crystallization
A computational model for the combined processes of quiescent and flowinduced crystallization of polymers is presented. This modelling should provide the necessary input data, in terms of the structure distribution in a product, for the prediction of mechanical properties and shapeand dimensional-stability. Rather then the shear rate as the driving force, a viscoelastic approach is proposed, wh...
متن کاملFlow-induced crystallization studied in the RheoDSC
Flow-induced crystallization is investigated through short-term shear flow experiments on poly(1butene) in the RheoDSC device. We demonstrate that the DSC signal shows contributions from spherulitic morphology in the center of the sample and oriented structures at the edge of the sample, the latter being induced by edge effects at the free surface. It is shown that, although small in terms of v...
متن کاملA Phase Field Technique for Modeling and Predicting Flow Induced Crystallization Morphology of Semi-Crystalline Polymers
Abstract: Flow induced crystallization of semi-crystalline polymers is an important issue in polymer science and engineering because the changes in morphology strongly affect the properties of polymer materials. In this study, a phase field technique considering polymer characteristics was established for modeling and predicting the resulting morphologies. The considered crystallization process...
متن کاملCrystallization and dissolution of flow-induced precursors.
We make use of a specially synthesized linear high density polyethylene with a bimodal molecular weight distribution (MWD) to demonstrate that it is possible to produce a suspension of extended-chain (shish) crystals only. Such a suspension can be generated at high temperatures, above but close to the equilibrium melting temperature of the unconstrained extended-chain crystals (T(m)(0)=141.2 de...
