X‐ray studies on the double melting behavior of poly(butylene terephthalate)

Abstract: The double melting behavior of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) was studied with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and wide-angle X-ray analysis. DSC melting curves of melt-crystallized PBT samples, which we prepared by cooling from the melt (250°C) at various cooling rates, showed two endothermic peaks and an exothermic peak located between these melting peaks. The cooling rate effect on these peaks was investigated. The melt-crystallized PBT sample cooled at 24 K min Ϫ1 was heated at a rate of 1 K mi… Show more

“…On the other hand, as the PBT was further heat up the (010) intensity became higher again at 216 °C. According to the authors 33 , that increase in the X-ray diffraction intensity at that temperature would be concrete proof of recrystallization during the melting process. Figure 3 shows PBT/ABS blends melting behavior observed during the DSC experiments.…”

“…Due to the faster cooling that PBT was subjected to before the first heating step the temperature of the exothermic peak was reduced for approximately 12 °C, inhibiting the occurrence of the double melting peak in the first heating 2 . Several authors have explained the occurrence of the double melting peak for PBT through the melt-recrystallization model 2,[31][32][33] . That model suggests that the lower-temperature and higher-temperature for the double peak in the DSC curve are attributable to the melting of some amount of original crystals and the melting of crystals formed through the melt-recrystallization process during a heating scan, respectively.…”

“…In the heating scan, the influence of DPP(Ox)-A-CNT on melting temperature (Tm) of PBT can be seen to be negligible. As can be seen from Figure 5 and stable crystals, which becomes melt at higher temperature [32][33][34]. Therefore, the first melting peak shifts to high temperature region, resulting in the reduction of multiple melt behavior.…”

“…In particular, strong (001), (0-11), (010), (1-11), (100), (1-11), (101), and (11-1) reflections of the α-form defined by a triclinic unit cell (a = 0.483 nm, b = 0.596 nm, c = 1.162 nm, α = 99.9˝, β = 115.2˝, and γ = 113.8˝) and a gauche-trans-gauche conformation for the glycol unit were observed ( Figure 6) [29,30]. It is clear that copolymers crystallized according to the structure of the major component and that aliphatic comonomers should be mainly excluded from the crystalline phase, being probably located in the amorphous lamellar folds.…”
