摘要
We discuss some thermal properties, as well as the thermal stability, of irradiated isotactic polypropylene. Sol-gel analysis showed that, despite the fact that irradiation doses were relatively high, no gel was formed. Values for DSC melting temperature, specific enthalpy of melting, crystallization temperature and crystallization enthalpy are different for the first and second scan, but the trend was similar. The melting temperature and specific melting enthalpy decreased with an increase in irradiation dose. TGA results showed that irradiation lowered the thermal stability of PP.
