In the present work long chain branched polypropylene (LCB PP) polymers were prepared by linear polypropylene and multi-functional monomer through melt grafting reaction. A quantitative rheological method was adopted to analysis the structure parameters of LCB PP. The effects of chain branched level on the crystallization kinetics of PP were investigated by rheology, differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscope and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. The dynamic viscoelastic properties of LCB PP showed that the increase in the chain branched level caused a typical deviation from the terminal behavior and a different distribution of the melt relaxation spectrum in the long relaxation time regime. It was found that the chain branched level had a significant effect on the flow induced crystallization (FIC) process of PP melts. The crystallization of LCB PP was more sensitive to shear flow than that of linear PP during induced period at low shear rates. This result also indicated that the longer relaxation time of the polymer chains played an important role in the nucleation of PP under shear flow fields. LCB PP with high chain branched level showed accelerated crystallization kinetics in comparison with that with low chain branched level.
