MeSH headings : Diffusion; Electric Power Supplies; Kinetics; Models, Chemical; Organic Chemicals / chemistry; Polymers / chemistry; Sunlight; Thermodynamics
TL;DR: It is discovered that the diffusion of an NF-SMA into the donor polymer exhibits Arrhenius behaviour and that the activation energy Ea scales linearly with the enthalpic interaction parameters χH between the polymer and the NF- SMA, and the thermodynamically most unstable, hypo-miscible systems are the most kinetically stabilized.

MeSH headings : Crystallization; Polyethylene / chemistry; Surface Properties; Transition Temperature
TL;DR: The large Tm depression is attributed to the decrease in the overall free energy on melting, which is caused by the substrate attraction force to the chains that competes against the interchain force which drives the chains to crystallization. (via Semantic Scholar)
