Journal ArticleDOI
Heterogeneity in polymer melts from melting of polymer crystals
Sanjay Rastogi,Dirk R. Lippits,Gerrit W. M. Peters,Robert Graf,Yefeng Yao,Hans Wolfgang Spiess +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that through slow and carefully controlled melting such polymer crystals form a heterogeneous melt with more entangled regions, where the chains are mixed, and less entangled ones, composed of individually separated chains, which shows decreased melt viscosity and provides enhanced drawability on crystallization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low percolation threshold in single-walled carbon nanotube/high density polyethylene composites prepared by melt processing technique
TL;DR: In this article, a new method was developed to disperse carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in a matrix polymer and then to prepare composites by melt processing technique, and the electrical conductivity and the rheological behavior of these composites were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dispersion and Rheological Aspects of SWNTs in Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene
TL;DR: In this article, a method is developed to homogeneously disperse single-walled carbon nanotubes bundles (SWNTs) in an intractable polymer, for example, ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (Mw > 3 × 106 g/mol) (UHMWPE).
Journal ArticleDOI
An approach to the formation and growth of new phases with application to polymer crystallization: effect of finite size, metastability, and Ostwald's rule of stages
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that a phase can appear and grow in a phase that is different from that in its state of ultimate stability, maintaining this in a metastable form when it may or may not transform into the ultimate stable state in the course of growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystallization and dissolution of flow-induced precursors.
Luigi Balzano,NP Nileshkumar Kukalyekar,Sanjay Rastogi,Sanjay Rastogi,Gwm Gerrit Peters,John C. Chadwick +5 more
TL;DR: A specially synthesized linear high density polyethylene with a bimodal molecular weight distribution (MWD) is used to demonstrate that it is possible to produce a suspension of extended-chain (shish) crystals only.
