Crystal structure of uniaxially stretched bio‐based polyamide 510 films

Abstract

The crystal structure changes of PA510 films during uniaxially stretching at 80°C, 110°C, 140°C and 170°C had been investigated as a function of stretching ratio and stretching rate. The stress–strain relationship curves showed that the stress of the PA510 films gradually increased when the stretching ratio increased. The wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction results verified that only one distinct equator reflection of stretched films was clearly identified at 80°C, 110°C and 140°C, namely γ(100) at 2θ = 20.6°. However, when the stretching temperature reached 170°C, the γ(004), γ(006) and γ(008) crystal form appeared in the meridional direction at λ = 12. Combined with differential scanning calorimeter analysis, it was found that the Xc increased from 7% to 40% as a result of the strain induced crystallization phenomenon and the stretching promoted the appearance of γ crystal form. In addition, the increase in the crystallinity and the molecular chain orientation increased the strength of the PA510 films in the tensile direction. And it also found that the microcracks occurred in the stretched films at high stretching ratio (λ = 12).

Fabrication and characterization of porous deacetylated cellulose acetate casting membrane with excellent oil/water separation performance

“…For example, the crude oil spill that occurred on the Deep‐water Horizon platform in 2010 caused many fish, birds, marine life, and plants to fall ill and even die 4 . In 2021, a serious crude oil spill occurred on the southern coast of California, USA, posing a serious threat to the local ecology 5 . At the same time, the discharge of oily sewage from the plant (containing toluene, n ‐hexane, and benzene, petroleum ether, and so forth) also is a continuing threat to the environment 6,7 .…”

The Structural Evolution and Mechanical Properties of Semi-Aromatic Polyamide 12T after Stretching

“…The results show that PA1212 has the maximum tensile strength after pre-stretching at 140 • C, due to the highest crystal orientation and crystallinity. Cui et al used WAXD and DSC to study the crystal structure of PA510 films after uniaxial stretching at different stretching ratios [34]. The results show that the crystallinity and orientation of molecular chain significantly increased with increasing the stretching ratio, due to the strain-induced recrystallization during the stretching process.…”
