The effect of a novel active nucleating agent(TBC8-eb) on the isothermal crystallization of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) was studied by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR). The analysis on kinetics demonstrates that TBC8-eb can not only accelerate the crystallization rate but also transform most of the original spherulite crystals of PLLA into sheaf-like crystals. Furthermore
the free energy of folding(σ
e
) of PLLA and PLLA with TBC8-eb is 0.15 and 0.06 J·m
-2
respectively
which suggests that the addition of TBC8-eb favors the regular folding of molecule chains in the crystallization of PLLA
improv-ing its crystallization rate. The FTIR results show that TBC8-eb can accelerate the conformational ordering of PLLA in the isothermal crystallization. The conformational ordering of PLLA nucleated with TBC8-eb begins with the interchain interaction of —CH
3
and then a short helix emerges where a couple of —CH
3
groups interact.
