Effect of additives on the morphology evolution of EPDM/PP
The effect of the amounts of curing agents, fillers, and plasticizer (paraffin oil) on the morphology evolution of TPVs during dynamic vulcanization was carefully studied in order to provide a guidence for the preparation of high-performance TPVs on large scale.
Effect of Plasticizer on the Morphology and Foaming
As an environment-friendly polymer, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) foams have attracted increasing attention due to their excellent thermal insulation and cushioning properties. However, the main drawback of PVA is its difficulty in melt processing (due to strong inter-/intrahydrogen bonds) and to control the cell morphology. To overcome the processing limits and realize the control of cell
Effect of plasticizer on physical and mechanical
The presence of high starch contents had an adverse effect on the mechanical properties of LDPE/starch blends. However, the addition of compatibilizer or plasticizer improved the interfacial...
Mechanical properties and morphology of modified celluloid
Celluloid is a highly flammable plastic made of nitrocellulose and camphor, as a plasticizer, and it has recently received interest as a material for making combustible containers. For this...

- How do plasticizers affect crystalline morphology?
- Crystalline and morphology structures were also changed differently according to the type of plasticizers. The crystalline degree was increased by all these plasticizers with an order: glycerol > PEG > PG. PEG had the best plasticizing effect in decreasing the tensile strength, modulus and increasing the elongation of pure HPMC and blending films.
- Does EG plasticizer affect the morphology of PVA?
- It was demonstrated that EG plasticizer exhibited good plasticizing effect, which decreased the melting point and widened the processing window of PVA. Moreover, the plasticizer could affect the melt strength and crystallization of samples, thus, affecting the foaming process and the cell morphology.
- Do plasticizers affect the structural and physical properties of curdlan edible films?
- Conclusions This study investigated the effects of various plasticizers—glycerol (GLY), ethylene glycol (EG), propylene glycol (PRO), xylitol (XY), sorbitol (SOR), and polyethylene glycol (PEG)—on the structural and physical properties of curdlan (CL) edible films.
- Which plasticizer has the best morphology?
- These structural changes led to a more uniform distribution of amorphous chain segments and a decrease in glass transition temperatures. Among the tested plasticizers, GLY exhibited the highest compatibility with CL, resulting in the smoothest surface morphology and delivering the most effective plasticizing effect.
- How does plasticizer content affect cell morphology in polymer foaming?
- With the increase of plasticizer content, the cell size of the foam increased from 9.30 μm (10 phr) to 12.75 μm (30 phr), and the expansion ratio increased from 2.33 (10 phr) to 3.36 (30 phr). This work has reference significance for the study of the regulation of cell morphology in the subsequent polymer foaming process.
- Do plasticizers affect the self-similar structure of glycerol blending films?
- The self-similar structure was significantly affected by the type of plasticizers. PEG decreased the compactness of the self-similar structure of all samples, while PG presented an opposite effect on pure HPS and the blending films. For glycerol plasticized samples, lamellar structure with a repeat distance of 15.7 nm was presented.
