Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancing the formation of the new trigonal polymorph in isotactic propene-1-pentene copolymers: Determination of the X-ray crystallinity

TL;DR: In this article, a metallocene copolymer of isotactic propene and 1-pentene was subjected to different crystallization conditions with 13 mol% of 1 -pentene counits, aiming to enhance the formation of a new trigonal modification of iPP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and Mechanical Behavior of the Mesomorphic Form in a Propylene- b -Poly(ethylene- co -propylene) Copolymer and Its Comparison with Other Thermal Treatments

TL;DR: In this article, a mesomorphic form of polypropylene-b-(ethylene-co-propylene) was obtained by quenching in a dry ice/methanol bath after melting, and an exhaustive analysis of such a mesophase has been performed comparing its morphological details and mechanical properties with the rest of thermal treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Syndiotactic polypropylene and its copolymers with alpha-olefins. Effect of composition and length of comonomer

TL;DR: In this article, a set of copolymers of propene and alpha olefins (1-hexene, 1-octene and 1- octadecene) and the corresponding homopolymer (sPP) have been synthesized using a syndiotactic metallocene catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of the mesomorphic phase in isotactic propene/higher α-olefin copolymers at intermediate comonomer content and its effect on properties

TL;DR: Several isotactic propene-α-olefin copolymers using 1-octene, 1-dodecene and 1-tetradecene as comonomers (CiPO, CiPDD and CiPTD, respectively) have been synthesized and their structure and thermal/mechanical/viscoelastic properties have been evaluated as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of the comonomer content on the mechanical parameters and microhardness values in poly(ethylene-co-1-octadecene) synthesized by a metallocene catalyst

TL;DR: In this article, a series of copolymers of ethylene and 1-octadecene with different comonomer contents in the corresponding homopolymer was synthesized with a metallocene catalyst.
