The strain recovery of three syndiotactic polypropylenes (s-PPs) differing in the percentage of [rrrr] pentad is investigated. A suitable method based on loading–unloading tests at constant displacement rate in tensile loading conditions is adopted to measure the residual and recovered strain components of the applied strain. The method allows to obtain a large amount of data from few tests and to explore a wide strain range. The dependence of the material’s strain recovery on the applied strain is analyzed in relation to s-PP strain induced microstructural changes and crystalline form transitions, which are reported in literature.

Abstract

The strain recovery of three syndiotactic polypropylenes (s-PPs) differing in the percentage of [rrrr] pentad is investigated. A suitable method based on loading–unloading tests at constant displacement rate in tensile loading conditions is adopted to measure the residual and recovered strain components of the applied strain. The method allows to obtain a large amount of data from few tests and to explore a wide strain range. The dependence of the material’s strain recovery on the applied strain is analyzed in relation to s-PP strain induced microstructural changes and crystalline form transitions, which are reported in literature.
