Title:
METHOD OF INCREASING CRYSTALLIZATION TEMPERATURES IN POLYPROPYLENE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/069280
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of increasing the crystallization temperature of polypropylene comprising melt deforming a base polypropylene in the absence of external nucleating agents, the melt deformation, resulting in an deformed polypropylene having a Tc from 4 to 20°C higher than the base polypropylene; wherein the melt deformation is accomplished in one or multiple deformation steps and at a Specific Energy Input of at least 0.05 kW-hr/kg.
