Abstract:Melt processing poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) with a nucleating agent has been thought to be one of the most effective route to enhance PLLA s crystallization and heat resistance. In the current work, a newly-developed organic nucleating agent named N, N -bis(2-picolinyl) 1, 4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid dihydrazide (NCAPH) was synthesized to investigate its effects on PLLA�s crystallization and melting behaviors. It is proved that NCAPH as an organic crystallization nucleating agent could provide large number of cr… Show more
