Crystallization, Orientation and Solid−Solid Crystal Transition of Polybutene‐1 Confined within Nanoporous Alumina
(ACS, 2020-07-31)
The effect of confinement on the crystallization, crystal orientation, and polymorphic crystal transition of bulk and infiltrated polybutene-1 (PB-1) within nanoporous alumina templates (AAO) were studied. After cooling ...
Effect of the crystallization conditions on the exclusion/inclusion balance in biodegradable poly(butylene succinate-ran-butylene adipate) copolymers
(ACS, 2020-07-14)
Biomedical applications of polymers require precise control of the solid-state structure, which is of particular interest for biodegradable copolymers. In this work, we evaluated the influence of crystallization conditions ...
Accelerating the crystallization kinetics of linear polylactides by adding cyclic poly (L-lactide): Nucleation, plasticization and topological effects
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-07-10)
Polylactide is one of the most versatile biopolymers, but its slow crystallization limits its temperature usage range. Hence finding ways to enhance it is crucial to widen its applications. Linear and cyclic poly (L-lactide) ...
Using Successive Self-nucleation and Annealing (SSA) to detect the solid-solid transitions in poly (hexamethylene carbonate) and poly (octamethylene carbonate)
(ACS, 2021-10-26)
Solid-solid transitions in poly (hexamethylene carbonate) (PC6) and poly (octamethylene carbonate) (PC8), denoted δ to α transition, have been investigated, using self-nucleation and Successive Self-nucleation and Annealing ...
Nucleation modalities in poly(lactide), poly(butylene succinate) and poly(ε-caprolactone) ternary blends with partial wetting morphology
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2020-08-17)
Ternary biodegradable polymer blends of poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), and poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) with the composition 45/10/45 wt% and exhibiting partial‐wetting morphology were prepared. In ...
Electroactive 3D printable poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-graft-poly(ε-caprolactone) copolymers as scaffolds for muscle cell alignment
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-12-02)
The development of tailor-made polymers to build artificial three-dimensional scaffolds to repair damaged skin tissues is gaining increasing attention in the bioelectronics field. Poly (3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) (PEDOT) ...
The effect of initial molecular weight on the structural evolution of Polyamide 1012 during high-temperature thermal treatments as revealed by Successive Self-Nucleation and Annealing
(ACS, 2022-08-24)
Successive self-nucleation and annealing (SSA) can thermally fractionate semi-crystalline polymers, thus detecting the characteristic structural features that lead to specific melting point distributions (corresponding to ...
Composition Dependent Miscibility in the Crystalline State of Polyamide 6 /Polyamide 4,10 Blends: from Single to Double Crystalline Blends
(Elsevier, 2021-02-22)
In this work, we studied the composition-dependent miscibility of polyamide 6 and biobased polyamide 4,10 (PA6/PA410) blends, as triggered by crystallization driven phase segregation. The blends were prepared by extrusion ...
Study of the interlayer adhesion and warping during material extrusion-based additive manufacturing of a carbon nanotube/biobased thermoplastic polyurethane nanocomposite
(Elsevier, 2021-04-07)
A thermoplastic bio-polyurethane from renewable sources (TPU) and the nanocomposite developed by mixing it
with carbon nanotubes (CNT) are investigated as potentially adequate for Material Extrusion-based Additive
Manufacturing ...
Thermo-rheological effects on succesful 3D printing of biodegradable polyesters
(Elsevier, 2020-06-23)
Biodegradable polybutylene succinate (PBS) and poly (butylene succinate-ran-adipate) (PBSA) were characterized to find the thermo-rheological bases for 3D printing by Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). In dynamic viscoelastic ...
