Development and use of a turbidity analyzer for studying the solution crystallization of polyolefins

Abstract: Cooling a solution of a crystalline polyolefin from 1408C to room temperature causes the dissolved polymer to crystallize. If a laser beam passes through this solution, the crystallization will cause the beam to scatter, which thereby decreases the intensity of the beam. With this principle, it is possible to follow the crystallization of polyolefins under controlled cooling. An instrument capable of doing these analyses was manufactured, and several different polyolefins were analyzed. The effect of the exper… Show more

“…To fractionate polymers produced using different catalyst systems, a number of methods described in the literature have been used for semi‐crystalline polymers . These methods include solvent extraction, consecutive extraction with different solvents, fractionation with solvent/non‐solvent pairs, consecutive extraction with a solvent at different temperatures and, more recently, TREF and crystallization analysis fractionation (CRYSTAF) .…”
