Flow-induced crystallization (FIC) is a dominant mechanism of polymer self-assembly, but
the process is poorly understood at high supercooling and under fast cooling conditions …

Structural relaxation in polymers occurs at temperatures in the glass transition range and
below. At these temperatures, crystallization is controlled by diffusion and nucleation. A …

Tailoring the properties of electrospun fibers requires a detailed understanding and control
of their microstructure. We investigate the structure/property relationships in fabrics of …

This works aims to investigate the effect of the molecular groups found in polyester
backbones (type of ring in the acidic subunit and length of the glycolic subunit) on the …

Two series of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)(PHBHV) and poly (3-
hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate)(PHBHHx) with different amounts of …

Abstract Poly (ethylene 2, 5-furandicarboxylate)(2, 5-PEF) is one of the most credible
biobased alternative to poly (ethylene terephthalate)(PET). The Henkel disproportionation …

Aligned poly (vinyl alcohol)(PVA) fibers with diameters of about 180±22 nm were obtained
by using a wire–drum collector during electrospinning of aqueous solutions of PVA with 99 …

Fast scanning calorimetry (FSC) experiments were performed to investigate physical aging
in amorphous and semi-crystalline poly (L-lactic acid) s (PLLAs) that were thermally …

The physical aging behavior of amorphous polylactide constrained against polystyrene in
layers of 300 nm, thanks to the layer–multiplying co–extrusion process, was investigated by …

Silicone materials are widely used in fouling release coatings, but developing eco-friendly
protection via biosourced coatings, such as polyhydroxyalcanoates (PHA) presents a major …
