Effects of substituted aromatic heterocyclic phosphate salts on properties, crystallization, and melting behaviors of isotactic polypropylene

Abstract: Nucleation effects of 2,2Ј-methylene-bis (4,6-di-tert-butylphenyl) phosphate metal salts as a nucleating agent for isotactic polypropylene (iPP) were investigated with differential scanning calorimeter and polarized optical microscope, and their effects on mechanical, optical, and heat resistance properties of iPP were also studied. The results showed that monovalent metal salts of substituted aromatic heterocyclic phosphate such as sodium salt, lithium salt, and potassium salt had a good performance. With 0.2… Show more

“…8(b) also showed the same tendency of the peak crystallization temperature and particularly, the hybrid with higher MMA content (PP-PMMA3, 45.5 wt%) was very effective for increasing the melting temperature. These phenomena show that the well-dispersed PMMA domains also worked as efficient nucleating agents for the crystallization of PP matrix like inorganic nanoparticle, clay and organic salts [32][33][34].…”

“…Such a better efficiency of sodium benzoate (R2) compared to phosphate based (R3) nucleating agent may be surprising. Indeed, according to the literature, sodium 2,2!-methtylene-bis(4,6-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphate (R3) is likely to induce smaller spherulites than sodium benzoate (R2) in non-reinforced plastics [28,29]. However, in the case of fibre-reinforced plastics, a more perfect crystalline structure (small spherulite sizes, homogeneous spherulite structure, possibly transcrystalline interphase -as expected in the case of R3) increases the internal stresses in the fibre/matrix interface region and therefore the material brittleness [10].…”

“…Besides, nucleating agents (e.g. most commonly carboxylate or phosphate ester salts, and sorbitol acetals) are often added to semi-crystalline polymers such as PET [24][25][26][27] or PP [28,29] in order to modify the crystallisation kinetics and mechanism (increase of the crystallisation rate, leading to a faster polymer solidification), consequently leading to injection moulding cycle time reduction. In particular, PET is characterised by a very slow crystallisation and nucleating agents are often added to control a more homogeneous structure through a uniform spherulite size more than to increase the degree of crystallinity of the polymer.…”

“…Addition of nucleating agents into iPP is an effective method to improve mechanical and optical properties, which are related to crystallization and morphology. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Bicyclic [2,2,1] heptane di-carboxylate (commercial product name: HPN-68) is a novel nucleating agent that was developed by Milliken Chemical Co.…”
