Study on crystal process and isothermal crystallization kinetics of UHMWPE/CA‐MMT composites

Abstract: Changes in the crystal morphology, crystallinity, and the melting process of thermoplastics resulted in significant changes in the processability and mechanical behavior of composites. In our former study, we prepared a novel antibacterial UHMWPE/CA‐MMT composite. In this study, the crystal process and crystallization kinetics of pure UHMWPE, UHMWPE/MMT, UHMWPE/CA, and UHMWPE/CA‐MMT were characterized by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The results showed that the chlorhexidine acetate (CA) and montmor… Show more

“…The ability of fillers to act as nucleating agents and modify the crystalline matrix of polymers has significant effects on the crystalline structure, crystalline phase and the entire crystallization process of polymers [12,19,20]. The difference in size and distribution of fillers in the polymeric matrix can lead to various nucleation effects and modification of crystalline matrix of polymers [12].…”
