Dependence of electrical properties of polypropylene isomers on morphology and chain conformation (original) (raw)

2009, Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics

AI-generated Abstract

The electrical properties of polypropylene isomers, specifically isotactic (iPP) and syndiotactic (sPP) samples, were investigated in relation to their morphology and chain conformation. Different preparation methods yielded various crystalline and mesomorphic structures, which were analyzed through X-ray diffractograms and transport property measurements. Findings indicated that iPP primarily exhibited Schottky emission mechanisms impacting its electrical conductivity, while sPP showed a predominant ionic transport mechanism with notable insulating characteristics due to its mesomorphic structure. Overall, the study enhances understanding of the interplay between the structural characteristics and electrical behavior of polypropylene isomers.
