A multi-layer bioinspired design with evolution of shish-kebab structures induced by controlled periodical shear field
The crystallization of polymers, caused by flow fields in the melt, has been the subject of extensive studies for many years. In this study, we use periodical shear to induce polypropylene to form multi-layer structure, which is usually observed in plants. Two interesting points were found: firstly,...
