Abstract

The effect of processes accompanying thermal oxidation of the polymer on the characteristics of its isothermal crystallization has been revealed. It has been shown that crystallization decelerates with a rise in the degree of PP oxidation. The higher the concentration of functional groups, the stronger the deceleration. The energy of nucleation increases when passing from virgin to oxidized PP samples. The higher the concentration of carbonyl groups accumulated in polymer chains, the more pronounced this effect, although the degradation of the chains must lead to a reduction in this parameter. It has been concluded that the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the isothermal crystallization are applicable to investigation of processes accompanying thermal oxidation of the crystallizable polymer.
