| Popis: | Blend of Nylon 6 and poly(ethylene-co-glycidyl methacrylate) (PEGMA) were prepared by a twin-screw extruder. Morphology observed with scanning electron microscopies (SEM) show PEGMA is well dispersed in Nylon 6 matrix. Isothermal and nonisothermal crystallization of the blend was investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and crystallization kinetics was described by Avrami and Tobin models. Equilibrium melting temperatures were estimated from linear Hoffman–Weeks relationship. All analyses showed that the reaction between PEGMA and Nylon 6 reduced the molecular mobility and reduced the crystallization rate. Expand Kg and U* in the Hoffman–Lauritzen equation by Vyazovkin's method demonstrated that Nylon 6/PEGMA had higher Kg and U* values and provided another supportive evidence to the above interpretation. |
