Table 3
DSC parameters obtained during the second heating for PBT, PBT/DA-C60, and PBT/TCNEO-C60 nanocomposites, respectively.
| Material with weight contents of fullerene derivate | Onset of melting [K] | Melting peak first [K] | Melting peak second [K] | Completion of melting [K] | Peak width - [K] | The melting enthalpy [J/g] | The estimated value of the crystallinity [%] |
| Virgin PBT | 481 | 485 | 496 | 501 | 20 | 46 | 32 | PBT/DA-C60 0.01% wt. | 478 | 485 | 495 | 500 | 22 | 48 | 34 | PBT/DA-C60 0.1% wt. | 476 | 486 | 495 | 499 | 23 | 55 | 39 | PBT/DA-C60 0.2% wt. | 476 | 480 | 495 | 499 | 23 | 50 | 35 | PBT/TCNEO-C60 0.2% wt. | 475 | 485 | 495 | 499 | 24 | 51 | 36 |
