The purpose of studies was to analyse an impact of heterogeneous nucleation of modified isotactic polypropylene (iPP) on its tribological properties. The iPP injection molded samples, produced by mold temperature of 20 and 70 °C, were modified with compositions of two nucleating agents (NA’s), DMDBS creating α-form and mixture of pimelic acid with calcium stearate (PACS) forming β–phase of iPP, with a total content 0.2 wt.% of NA’s. A polymorphic character of iPP, with both, monoclinic (α) and pseudo-hexagonal (β) crystalline structures, depending on the NA’s ratio, was verified. The morphology observation, DSC, hardness and tribological measurements as test in reciprocating motion with “pin on flat” method, were realized, followed by microscopic observation (confocal and SEM) of the friction patch track. It was found that Shore hardness rises along with DMBDS content, independent on mold temperature. The friction coefficient (COF) depends on NA’s content and forming temperature—for upper mold temperature (70 °C), its value is higher and more divergently related to NA’s composition, what is not the case by 20 °C mold temperature. The height of friction scratches and the width of patch tracks due to its plastic deformation, as detected by confocal microscopy, are related to heterogeneous nucleation modified structure of iPP.

The nonisothermal crystallization kinetics of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) filled with a novel nucleating agent (TMC328) was studied by using differential scanning calorimetric. The commonly used Arami, Ozawa, and Mo models were used to model the crystallization kinetics, and it appears that Arami and Mo models can well describe the nonisothermal crystallization behaviors of iPP/TMC328 blends. The results indicate that a small amount of TMC328 can obviously enhance the kinetic crystallizability of iPP due to its heterogeneous nucleation effect.
