Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer, widely employed by converter industries to produce different plastic objects. In order to control and optimize the final properties of the polypropylene material, the evaluation of transition temperatures and enthalpies by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) has a very important role. Therefore, it is fundamental to know how the analytical conditions influence the results. In this study heating and cooling rates, 10°C/min and 20°C/min, and two different rates of nitrogen flow, 20mL/min and 50mL/min were investigated. It was concluded that thermal properties are influenced by rates of heating and rates of nitrogen flow. The best precision was obtained with the low heating rate, 10°C/min, and high flow rate, 50mL/min. These conditions are being used with the DSC method for polyolefin quality control and material characterization.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) measurements are routinely used to determine enthalpies of phase change, phase transition temperatures, glass transition temperatures, and heat capacities. In order to obtain data on the amount of phases during phase change, time-temperature lags, which are inherent to the measurement process, must be estimated through a computational analysis. An analytical model is proposed for the systematic error of the instrument. Numerical simulation results are compared against experimental data obtained at different heating and cooling rates.

The advent of chip calorimetry has enabled an unprecedented extension of the capability of differential scanning calorimetry to explore new domains of materials behavior. In this paper, we highlight some of our recent work: the application of heating and cooling rates above 104 K/s allows for the clear determination of the glass transition temperature, Tg, in systems where Tg and the onset temperature for crystallization, Tx, overlap; the evaluation of the delay time for crystal nucleation; the discovery of new polyamorphous materials; and the in-situ formation of glass in liquid crystals. From these application examples, it is evident that chip calorimetry has the potential to reveal new reaction and transformation behavior and to develop a new understanding.

Imidacloprid-β-cyclodextrin (IMI-β-CD) inclusion complex was synthesized and effectively incorporated into filament yarns of polypropylene. The physical and thermal properties of IMI-β-CD inclusion complex were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. According to the results, formation of the inclusion complex was achieved along with enhanced thermal stability. The release profile of imidacloprid was monitored by high-performance chromatography measurements. Dissolution time of the IMI-β-CD inclusion complex was increased to 5 times that of the neat imidacloprid (from 9 h to 48 h). Poylpropylene filament yarns containing 3 wt.% IMI-β-CD inclusion complex released 84 wt.% of IMI within 21 days.

A novolac-based polytriazole (NPTA) resin was synthesized using 4,4′-diazidomethylbiphenyl and a propargylated novolac resin through catalyst-free click polymerization. Differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared analysis results demonstrate that the NPTA resin can be cured at 80°C. The glass transition temperature of the cured NPTA-88 resin is 202°C. The thermal degradation temperature of the cured NPTA resin is 352°C under nitrogen. The composite of the resin exhibits good mechanical property.
