Modeling the Nucleation and Growth of Polymer Spherulites

Résumé

Semicrystalline polymer materials play an essential role in the industry. The modeling and prediction of polymer microstructures has obvious environmental and economic interests. In this study, a mesoscale modeling of spherulite pattern formation is constructed. For this purpose, the spherulite growing is modeled by a multi-phase fields model and by a cellular automaton. The heterogeneous nucleation of the spherulites is modeled using the concept of random local nucleation time which allows to optimize the computational time.
