Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics and Melting Behavior of POE-g-MAH Compatibilized PA11/POE Blends

A new Nylon 11（PA11）/polyethylene-octene（POE） blends compatibilized by maleic anhydride grafted mixture polyethyleneocten（POE-g-MAH） was prepared through melt blending method.The isothermal crystallization kinetics and melting behaviors of PA11/POE blends were investigated in detail by differential scanning calorimetry（DSC） and polarized optical microscope.The n values of PA11 blending with POE or POE-g-MAH are almost similar with pure PA11,which indicates that the effect of POE and POE-g-MAH on nucleation and growth of PA11 crystal is slight.The overall crystallization rate of PA11/POE blends are higher than ones of pure PA11 at the same crystallization temperatures,but they decrease significantly when POE-g-MAH is added into PA11/POE blends.DSC heating curves of both PA11 and its blends exhibit two melting peaks,but the two melting peak become weaker when POE-g-MAH is add into PA11/POE blend systems.And the spherulite size is reduced significantly by the addition of POE-g-MAH compared with pure PA11 and PA11/POE blends.

尼龙11/蒙脱土纳米复合材料的结晶行为

用广角X射线衍射仪(W AXD)、差示扫描量热仪(DSC)、偏光显微镜等手段研究了尼龙11/蒙脱土(PA 11/m on t)纳米复合材料的结晶行为,结果表明,蒙脱土起到成核剂的作用,它的加入没有改变PA 11的晶型,但使PA 11的结晶温度升高,结晶速率增加,结晶活化能降低,使PA 11更易于结晶。A vra-m i方程可较好地描述PA 11及其纳米复合材料的等温结晶行为。
