In this article, the effects of size and confinement at the nanometre size scale on both the
melting temperature, T m, and the glass transition temperature, T g, are reviewed. Although …

The static and dynamic properties of polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites are
discussed, in the context of polymers in confined spaces and polymer brushes. A wide range …

The static and dynamic properties of polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites are
discussed in the context of polymers in confined media. Despite the topological constraints …

Lifetime analysis of positronium annihilating in nanometer voids is used to study the thermal
expansion behavior of thin, Si-supported polystyrene films near the glass transition …

The melting and crystallization behavior of poly (l‐lactic acid)(PLLA; weight‐average
molecular weight= 3× 105) was studied with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). DSC …

The relaxation behavior of poly (ethylene oxide)(PEO), intercalated in montmorillonite, a
naturally occurring mica‐type silicate, was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) …

In this paper, we present results of morphological studies during long time melt
crystallization and subsequent melting in poly (aryl ether ether ketone)(PEEK) …

Thermal analysis was performed on poly (butylene terephthalate), PBT, between 210 and
560 K. By combination of experimental heat capacities with computations with an …

Poly (vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF) and its random copolymers exhibit the most distinctive
ferroelectric properties; however, their spontaneous polarization (60–105 mC m− 2) is still …

Abstract Polystyrene (PS)/o− terphenyl (o TP) solutions confined to nanometer scale pores
were studied by differential scanning calorimetry to investigate size and confinement effects …
