The non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of Nylon 10 T and Nylon 10T/1010 was investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). Jeziorny equation and Mo equation were applied to describe the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of the Nylon 10 T and the Nylon 10T/1010. The activation energies for non-isothermal crystallization were obtained by Vyazovkin's method and Friedman's method, respectively. These results showed that Jeziorny equation and Mo equation well described the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of the Nylon 10 T and the Nylon 10T/1010. It was found that the values of the activation energy for non-isothermal crystallization of the Nylon 10T/1010 were lower than those of the Nylon 10 T at a given temperature or relative crystallinity degree,which revealed that crystallization ability of the Nylon 10T/1010 was higher. The crystal morphology was observed by means of a polarized optical microscope(POM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD). It was found that the addition of sebacic acid comonomer not only did not change the crystal form of the Nylon 10 T, but also significantly increased the number and decreased the size of spherulites. Comparing with the Nylon 10 T, the crystallization rate was increased with the addition of the sebacic acid comonomer.展开更多

The modified Avrami equation, the Ozawa equation and the combined Avrami/Ozawa equation were employed to analyze the non-isothermal crystallization data. The crystallization activation energies were also evaluated by the Kissinger method. It was found that the combined Avrami/Ozawa equation could successfully describe the non-isothermal crystallization process. The results showed that D-MWNTs not only acted as effective heterogeneous nucleating agents for PA6 and noticeably increased the crystallization temperature of PA6, but also influenced the mechanism of nucleation and crystal growth of PA6 and then reduced the overall crystallization rate of the neat PA6 matrix. The crystallization activation energy for the nanocomposite sample was greater than that of the neat PA6, which indicated that the addition of D-MWNTs hindered the mobility of PA6 chain segments.展开更多

The Mo equation was employed to analyze the non-isothermal crystallization data. The crystallization activation energies were also evaluated by the Kissinger method. The results show that the crystallization onset temperature(T onset) and crystallization peak temperature(T p) decrease with the increase of the content of reactive microgel, while ΔT(T onset–T p), the crystallization half-time(t1/2) and the crystallization enthalpy(ΔH c) increase. The required cooling rates of blends are higher than that of neat nylon6 in order to achieve the same relative crystallinity in a unit of time. The crystallization activation energies of the reactive microgel/nylon 6 blends are greater than those of the neat nylon 6. When the content of reactive microgel is 30%, the relative crystallinity(X t) reaches the maximum.展开更多

It completes our previous work in which we related the crystallinity of these conductive PVDF/PET based composites to their through-plane resistivity [1]. Isothermal crystallization was described using the logarithmic form of the Avrami equation and it was observed that the crystallization rate of the PVDF phase inside the composite became slower compared to that of neat PVDF. In non-isothermal crystallization, the Avrami exponent of PVDF phase did not show any noticeable variation;however, that of PET phase, which contains the major part of the conductive carbon black (CB) and graphite (GR) additives, showed an evident decrease compared with neat PET. It was also observed that, at the same cooling rate, the crystallization rate of PVDF and PET phases inside the composite was slower than that of neat PVDF and PET.展开更多

The Avrami analysis modified by Jeziorny and a method developed by Mo were employed to describe the non-isothermal crystallization process of these samples. The difference in the exponent n between PP and PP/anhydrite composites indicated that non-isothermal kinetic crystallization corresponded to tri-dimensional growth with heterogeneous nucleation. The values of half-time, Zc and F（T） showed that the crystallization rate increased with the increasing of cooling rates for PP and PP/anhydrite composites, but the crystallization rate of PP/anhydrite composites was faster than that of PP at a given cooling rate. The method developed by Ozawa did not describe the non-isothermal crystallization process of PP very well. Moreover, the method proposed by Kissinger was used to evaluate the activation energy of the mentioned samples. The result showed that the activation energy of PP/anhydrite was greatly larger than that of PP.展开更多

Although the compo-sition of 58/42 B-N copolyester had poorer thermodynamic crystallizability comparing with thoseof 30/70 and 75/25, its kinetic crystallizability Go was slightly larger. This fact was due to thepoorer match of sequences of 58/42 B-N in domains of nematic melt,and therefore better mobilityof chains during crystallization. The Avrami exponents of three composition species were allabout 2. 5, implying two dimensional growth in so-called non-periodic layer crystallites and a mixture of homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation.展开更多

The addition of TATA can lead to the formation ofβ-crystal PP. With the increase in TATA concentration the degree of crystallinity for β-crystal PP increased significantly, and that for a-crystal PP decreased, which indicated that TATA effectively induced the formation of β-crystal PP. WAXD also revealed the existence of β-crystal PP after the introduction of TATA into PP. PP containing TATA crystallized at a temperature range of 5-10℃ higher than that of pure PP, and the half-crystallization time （t1/2） and Avrami exponent （n） of PP at the same cooling rate were decreased by the addition of TATA, indicating that TATA influenced the crystallization rate and crystallization growth mode of PP. The rate constant of crystallization of PP containing TATA （Zc） was larger than that of pure PP, which further indicated that the crystallization of PP was accelerated by the addition of TATA.展开更多

The effect of the additive structure and their feed ratios on the melting temperature, crystallization temperature, and crystallization rate of PK were studied. We found that the crystallization temperature could be reduced significantly by introducing a small quantity of organic additive, in particular, an anhydride. On addition of 1 phr of anhydride, the crystallization temperature was reduced by 10.7 ℃. Therefore, the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of aliphatic PKJanhydride blends with various feed ratios was investigated using DSC. The results were analyzed by various theoretical models, such as Avrami, Ozawa and combined Avrami-Ozawa models.展开更多

Kinetics of the crystallization process of Zn0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 was studied using DSC technique, and kinetic parameters were determined by Kissinger equation and Moynihan et al. equation. The value of the activation energy associated with the crystallization process of Zr0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 is 220.89 kJ-mol-1. The average value of the Avrami exponent, n, is equal to 1.59±0.13, which suggests that crystallization process of Zn0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 is the random nucleation and growth of nuclei reaction.展开更多

Herein, Al_2O_3 with two different contents was added into the same glass formulation, referred to as A and B glass, respectively. In terms of the non-isothermal crystallization kinetic behavior, the effect of Al_2O_3 as the unique intermediate was innovatively studied on the long-term performance of BCABS sealing glass. After the heat treatment at 1023 K for 100 h, the change of the network structure and the expansion coefficient of the glass were characterized. The results showed that the addition of Al_2O_3 as a network forming body could enhance the structure of glass, and increase the activation energy for glass transition, which could effectively inhibit the crystallization ability of sealing glass. Therefore, the B glass with the higher Al_2O_3 content showed the better long-term sealing ability, which was greatly beneficial for IT-SOFCs sealing.展开更多

The result showed that Zn0.sNio.sFe204 obtained at 1073 K had a saturation magnetization of 74 A.mLkg-1. Kinetics of the crystallization process of Zn0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 was studied using DSC technique, and kinetic parameters were determined by Kissinger equation and Moynihan et al. equation. The value of the activation energy associated with the crystallization process of Zr0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 is 220.89 kJ-mol-1. The average value of the Avrami exponent, n, is equal to 1.59±0.13, which suggests that crystallization process of Zn0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 is the random nucleation and growth of nuclei reaction.

文摘Owing to adjustable thermal expansion performance, BaO–CaO–Al_2O_3–B_2O_3–SiO_2(BCABS) glass has a promising commercialization prospect for intermediate temperature-solid oxide fuel cells(IT-SOFCs) sealing. Herein, Al_2O_3 with two different contents was added into the same glass formulation, referred to as A and B glass, respectively. In terms of the non-isothermal crystallization kinetic behavior, the effect of Al_2O_3 as the unique intermediate was innovatively studied on the long-term performance of BCABS sealing glass. After the heat treatment at 1023 K for 100 h, the change of the network structure and the expansion coefficient of the glass were characterized. The results showed that the addition of Al_2O_3 as a network forming body could enhance the structure of glass, and increase the activation energy for glass transition, which could effectively inhibit the crystallization ability of sealing glass. Therefore, the B glass with the higher Al_2O_3 content showed the better long-term sealing ability, which was greatly beneficial for IT-SOFCs sealing.

文摘A series of lanthanide complexes with the 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid （3,4,5-tmoba） and 1,10-phenanthroline（phen）, [Ln（3,4,5-tmoba）3phen]2（Ln = Pr（l）, Nd （2） and Ho（3））, have been synthesized and characterized by a series of techniques including elemental analysis, IR spectra, X-ray crystallography and TG/DSC-FTIR technology. The three complexes have two kinds of coordination modes, in which the Pr3＋ and Nd3＋ cations are nine-coordinated and the Ho3＋ cation is eight-coordinated. The three-dimensional IR accumulation spectra of gaseous products for complexes 1-3 were analyzed and the gaseous products were identified by the typical IR spectra obtained from the 3D surface graphs. Meanwhile, we obtained the activation energy E of the first steps of complexes 1-3 by the integral isoconversional non-linear （NL-INT） method and discussed the non-isothermal kinetics of complexes 1-3 using the Malek method. Finally, SB（m, n） was defined as the kinetic method of the first-step thermal decomposition. The thermodynamic parameters △G≠, △H≠ and △S≠ of activation at the peak temperature were also calculated.
