Abstract

The effects of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) component on the crystallization kinetics, crystalline structure, phase transition, and morphology of polymorphic poly(butylene adipate) (PBA) in their miscible PVDF/PBA binary blends have been investigated. The polymorphism of PBA can be regulated upon blending with PVDF. The incorporated PVDF faciliates the formation of PBA α-crystal, which is probably attributed to the thermodynamic and kinetic contributions. From the crystallization kinetics, it was found that a small amount of PVDF acts as a nucleating agent and can accelerate the crystallization of PBA, while a large amount of PVDF hinders the crystallization of PBA due to the confinement effect. In addition, the addition of PVDF greatly accelerates the β- to α-form phase transition of PBA upon annealing the PBA β-form at higher tmeperataure (48 °C). However, the large amount of PVDF decelerates the phase transition to a certain extent. The possible reasons for these phenomena were also proposed.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • There are few binary miscible blends showing fractionated crystallization, such as PEO/PBS, PBA/PVDF, PBA/PBS, PEO/PHB, and PEO/PES.

    “Compared to immiscible blends, there are just few binary miscible blends showing fractionated crystallization, such as PEO/poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) [69][70][71][72][73] , poly(butylene adipate) (PBA)/poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) [ 74 , 75 ], PBA/PBS [76] , PEO/poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) [77][78][79][80] , PEO/ Poly(ethylene suberate) (PES) [81] .”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
