Tailoring the rheology and electrical properties of polyamide 66 nanocomposites with hybrid filler approach: graphene and carbon nanotubes

Jordana K. Palacios et al.

Summary: The aim of the study was to improve the processability and reduce the melt viscosity of nanocomposites based on PA66 and CNT, while maintaining good electrical conductivity. By adding GNP, viscosity was decreased significantly, but electrical conductivity was slightly diminished. Furthermore, GNP acted as nucleating agents, enhancing the crystallization ability of PA66.

Continuous Cooling Curve Diagrams of Isotactic-Polypropylene/Polyethylene Blends: Mutual Nucleating Effects under Fast Cooling Conditions

Enrico Carmeli et al.

Summary: The crystallization kinetics of PE/PP blends under processing-relevant cooling conditions were investigated, revealing an inversion point in the crystallization order of the two polymers that can be tuned by employing different types of PP. The validity of the results shown by CCC diagrams was confirmed through ex situ morphological and wide-angle X-ray diffraction experiments, demonstrating the importance of knowing and controlling the type of components in blends obtained from recycling.

Instrument for mimicking fast cooling conditions of polymers: Design and case studies on polypropylene

Enrico Carmeli et al.

Summary: A thorough understanding of polymer crystallization kinetics is crucial for designing materials tailored to specific applications. A method for fast cooling preparation of polymers using air and water sprays has been proposed, offering several improvements compared to previous devices. The device was designed to meet safety and cleaning standards in industrial environments and can be easily implemented in any laboratory setting. Preliminary results on isotactic-polypropylenes (iPP) were obtained in a range of cooling rates, demonstrating the versatility of the method for various studies. Ex-situ analysis was conducted using WAXS, DSC, and AFM techniques to characterize the samples.
