Crystalline and Amorphous Orientation of Polypropylene / Nylon 6 Blend Filaments

چکیده
N6) made with or without PP-g-MAH as compatibilizer are investigated. The blend filaments produced at the take-up speeds of 300 and 800 m/min were drawn with draw ratio of 3.5 and 2, respectively. Effects of blending of N6 with PP on birefringence , crystalline, and amorphous orientation factors of the composite filaments are studied. The amorphous orientation factor, fam of PP was found to increase with the increase in the amount of N6 fraction. The blend filaments behaved like iso-strain materials and most of the force in spinning and drawing was born by the PP phase. The presence of N6 fibrils helped the PP chain molecules to orient in amorphous regions. However, the crystalline factor, fc of PP decreased with increase in the nylon fraction. This means that the presence of the crystals of N6 caused a decrease in the orientation of the PP crystals. Crystalline and Amorphous Orientation of Polypropylene/Nylon 6 Blend Filaments

Influence of non-covalent modification of multiwalled carbon nanotubes on the crystallization behaviour of binary blends of polypropylene and polyamide 6.
Blends of polypropylene (PP) and polyamide 6 (PA6) with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were prepared using different processing strategies in a twin-screw micro-compounder. The effect of MWNTs on the crystallization behaviour of the PP phase and the PA6 phase of the blend has been investigated through non-isothermal crystallization studies by differential scanning calorimetric analysis. F...
متن کاملMechanical response of melt-spun amorphous filaments
High-speed melt spinning of a cyclo-olefin polymer (COP) and a copolyamide (CoPA) have been performed. Differential scanning calorimetry curves of the resulting monofilaments show that they remain in an amorphous state even after hot drawing. Wide angle x-ray diffraction patterns of undrawn and drawn COP filaments show that although the material remains in an amorphous state, a degree of orient...

High density polyethylene (HDPE) films were produced using cast film extrusion process with different draw ratios, ranging from 16.9 to 148.8. Morphology, crystallinty and orientation state of crystalline and amorphous phases of the cast films were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy...

Polypropylene fumarate/phloroglucinol triglycidyl methacrylate oligomeric blend-based bone cement was studied. Higher the percentage of phloroglucinol triglycidyl methacrylate, lesser the setting time. An optimum setting time could be arrived with 50:50 blend composition of the two oligomers. Composite cement of 50:50 blend prepared with hydroxyapatite granules of particle size 125 microm binds...

In 1993, researchers at Toyota Central R&D reported that 5 wt % of an exfoliated clay could double the roomtemperature modulus of nylon-6, a semicrystalline engineering plastic, and raise its heat distortion temperature by more than 80 °Call without sacrificing toughness. That work stimulated a worldwide effort to synthesize and study polymer–matrix nanocompositesand it also highlighted the i...
