Abstract

Crystallization of isostatic polypropylene (iPP) containing nanostructured polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) molecules was studied at quiescent and shear states. Small angle x-ray scattering and differential scanning calorimetry were used for the analysis. A faster crystallization rate for iPP-POSS samples was found than for that of neat resin in quiescent and shear states. Results indicated that POSS crystals act as nucleating agents.
