Achieving efficient and large-scale preparation of mesophase-nylon 11 film by random copolymerization of nylon 11 and nylon 611.

ABSTRACT: Nylon 11 is a promising functional material for future electronic devices or energy storage systems. To utilize nylon-11 in these applications, it is important to control the formation of metastable crystal phases such as the γ-phase and δ'-phase. However, controlling the formation of the applicable metastable crystal phase by the processing method is complicated and inefficient. Herein, we report a novel nylon 11-based copolymer synthesized by random copolymerization of nylon 11 and nylon 611, which can directly obtain a metastable crystal phase by simple hot-pressing. Meanwhile, high heterogeneity can stabilize the defective mesophase. Non-isothermal crystallization analysis showed that the crystallization rate decreased gradually with the increase of chemical heterogeneity in the nylon
