This paper reports experimental and computational studies on patterns in the structure formation of polymer nanocomposites when different types of fillers are used. The study was conducted for nanocomposites based on polyamide 6 filled with carbon nanotubes or silicon dioxide nanoparticles. In the course of research, the mass fraction of the filler varied from 0.2 % to 4.0 %, and the cooling rate of the melt composite varied from 0.5 K/min up to 20 K/min. Data on experimental and theoretical studies into the mechanisms of structure formation of composites according to the method, which includes two stages, are given. According to the first stage, crystallization exotherms of nanocomposites were experimentally obtained when they are cooled from the melt at a given constant rate. The dependence of various characteristics of the crystallization process on the mass fraction of the filler and the cooling rate of the composite was established. At the second stage, based on the analysis of the obtained crystallization exotherms, theoretical studies were performed to determine the mechanisms of structure formation of nanocomposites at different stages of crystallization. For the initial stage, according to the nucleation equation, the presence of two mechanisms of structure formation – planar and volumetric – has been shown. Within the framework of the Kolmogorov-Avrami equation, the mechanisms of structure formation at the next stage of crystallization were established, which corresponds to the formation of ordered structures in the material within the volume of the polymer composite as a whole. The research was carried out assuming the existence of a mechanism of crystallization of the polymer matrix itself, which is realized on fluctuations in the density of the polymer, and a mechanism of crystallization, the centers of which are filler particles. The use of the proposed nanocomposites is promising for the manufacture of parts of energy equipment, electronic equipment, elements of chemical, processing, defense industry installations, etc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
