The crystallization of heterogeneously nucleated bulk polymers typically occurs in a single
exothermic process, within a narrow temperature range, ie, a single exothermic peak is …

The existence of a “memory” of the previous crystalline state, which survives melting and
enhances recrystallization kinetics by a self-nucleation process, is well-known in polymer …

The effect of hydrogen bonding stability on the memory effects in the crystallization of long
chain polyamides have been investigated by the self-nucleation calorimetric technique. Self …

This paper presents a systematic review of the literature on the melt memory effects
observed in polymers, an area that has engendered considerable debate for over 50 years …

The crystallization behavior of a butene-1/ethylene random copolymer with 9.88 mol%
ethylene counits was investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry, wide-and …

It is still a challenge to obtain polar phase of poly (vinylidene fluoride) from melt
crystallization at normal conditions. This study demonstrates that polar β‐and γ phases can …

A series of low polydispersity cyclic PCL samples (C-PCLs), as well as their linear analogs
(L-PCLs), were synthesized by click chemistry in a number average molecular weight (M n) …

The relaxation process of shear-induced crystal nucleation precursors has been
investigated in a temperature range slightly above the melting point using a series of …

The influence of crystalline memory effect on poly (lactic acid)(PLA) crystallization was
probed by time-resolved Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The melt with …

Recently, experiments reported a strong memory effect of crystallization in model ethylene-
based homogeneous random copolymers after being annealed at temperatures higher than …
