Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) was applied to confirm the existence of branching and( investigate the grafting degree for the modified PPRs. Melt flow index (MFI) and oscillatory shear rheological properties including complex viscosity, storage modulus, loss tangent and the Cole-Cole plots were studied to differentiate the LCB-PPRs from linear PPR. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized light microscopy (PLM) were used to study the melting and crystallization behavior and the spherulite morphology, respectively. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of rheological curves demonstrated the existence of LCB. The effect of the LCB on crystalline morphology, crystallization behavior and molecular mobility, and, thereby, the mechanical properties were studied and analyzed. Due to the entanglements between molecular chains and the nucleating effect of LCB, LCB-PPRs showed higher crystallization temperature and crystallinity, higher crystallization rate, more uniformly dispersed and much smaller crystallite compared with virgin PPR, thus giving rise to significantly improve impact strength. Moreover, the LCB-PPRs exhibited the improved yield strength. The mobility of the molecular chain segments, as demonstrated by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), was improved for the modified PPRs, which also contributed to the improvement of their mechanical properties.展开更多

In this study, the β-nucleated PPR with high β-crystal content was prepared by a novel high effective β-nucleating system which consists of β-nucleation agent (TMB-5) and modified zeolite 13X (M13X). It was found that M13X and TMB-5 had a synergistic influence on improving β-crystal content and toughening PPR. The content of β-crystal in PPR/M13X/TMB-5 was significantly larger than the sum of that in PPR/M13X and PPR/TMB-5. Besides, fracture behavior, phase morphology and relaxation of matrix chain segments were also investigated. The results showed that M13X and TMB-5 improved the mobility of amorphous chain segments at low temperature and contributed to much energy dissipation. This work provides a powerful method to modify PPR.展开更多

The ultraviolet resistance, crystallization behavior and melting characteristics of ZnO and M-ZnO filled PPR composites were compared by FTIR spectra and differential scanning calorimetry. The ultraviolet resistance of M-ZnO filled PPR composites is higher than that of ZnO filled PPR composites, indicating higher ultraviolet resistance of M-ZnO than that of ZnO. The crystallization temperatures of mesoporous zeolite filled PPR were higher than those of M-ZnO and decreased with increasing UV-irradiation time. But the crystallization temperatures of M-ZnO filled PPR composites were not influenced by UV-irradiation time. The ZnO supported on the surface of zeolite is effective in enhancing the ultraviolet resistance of ZnO based polymer materials.展开更多
