Temperature Effects on the Crystalline Structure of iPP Containing Different Solvent-Treated TMB-5 Nucleating Agents.

ABSTRACT: TMB-5 nucleating agent (NA) treated by different solvents were used as the β-NA of iPP. The effects of temperature on the crystalline structure of different iPP/TMB-5, as well as the crystallization and melting behaviors were investigated. It was found that strong polar solvent treated TMB-5 (TMB-5_DMSO and TMB-5_DMF) could induce more β-crystal at high T_c = 140 °C than the other TMB-5 NAs, while the β-crystal inducing efficiency of untreated TMB-5 (TMB-5_UT) and non-polar solvent treated TMB-5 (TMB-5_LP) is seriously reduced at high T_c = 140 °C. TMB-5_DMSO can induce a high and stable content of β-crystal with K_β = 83-94% within T_c = 90-140 °C, and TMB-5_ODC
