Thermal Stability of Shear-Induced Precursors and Their Effect on the Crystalline Structure of β-Nucleated Isotactic Polypropylene

The thermal stability and lifetime of shear-induced precursors under various annealing temperatures, as well as the influence of their relaxation on the crystalline modification in β-nucleated isotactic polypropylene (iPP), are investigated using an ARES rheometer. The wide-angle X-ray diffraction r...
