Determination of Plateau Moduli and Entanglement Molecular Weights of Isotactic, Syndiotactic, and Atactic Polypropylenes Synthesized with Metallocene Catalysts
Abstract
Metallocene catalysis was employed to prepare model polypropylenes (PP) with very high molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions (MWDs) of M w / M n ≈ 2, typical for “single site” metallocene catalysts. The viscoelastic properties of PP melts were investigated by means of oscillatory rheometry. Arrhenius and WLF equations were applied to model the influence of temperature on PP rheology. With very high molecular weight polypropylene samples it became possible to determine the onset of the plateau zone, reflecting the rubber-like properties of PP. For the first time plateau moduli and entanglement molecular weights M e s were determined and found to be depend upon stereoregularity. The entanglement molecular weights were found to be 6900 g/mol for isotactic PP, 7050 g/mol for atactic PP, and 2170 g/mol for syndiotactic PP. This influence of stereoregularity was attributed to the different conformations of syndiotactic PP with respect to isotactic and atactic PP in PP melts.

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.
