Abstract
The β-crystals of polypropylene have a metastable crystal form. The formation of β-crystals can improve the toughness and heat resistance of a material. The introduction of a β-nucleating agent, over many other methods, is undoubtedly the most reliable method through which to obtain β-PP. Furthermore, in this study, certain newly developed β-nucleating agents and their compounds in recent years are listed in detail, including the less-mentioned polymer β-nucleating agents and their nucleation characteristics. In addition, the various influencing factors of β-nucleation efficiency, including the polymer matrix and processing conditions, are analyzed in detail and the corresponding improvement measures are summarized. Finally, the composites and synergistic toughening effects are discussed, and three potential future research directions are speculated upon based on previous research.

Abstract
Two kinds of organic phosphate nucleating agent (NA-11 and NA-21) were used in PP with different molecular weights through the melt extrusion method. The dispersibility of the nucleating agents in PP, and the effect of the nucleating agents on the molecular weight, rheological behavior and crystallization behavior of PP were investigated. SEM and TEM analysis showed that the average radius of the dispersed particles (nucleating agents) was larger in LPP than that in HPP. The good dispersion of NA-21 also created more nucleation embryos for the adsorption of polypropylene molecules than the agglomerated NA-11. The gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis showed that the average molecular weight of HPP and LPP both decreased with the addition of a nucleating agent. The rotational rheometer and capillary rheometer analysis showed that the effect of NA-21 on reducing intermolecular entanglement was more significant, whether in HPP or LPP. The addition of NA-21 had less elastic energy storage and better flow stability, and could be processed at a higher speed. Simultaneously, the relaxation time in the blends with LPP was shorter than that with HPP. It was found that the crystallinity and nucleation efficiency of HPP/nucleating agent blends increased remarkably, while there was a barely perceptible increase in LPP/nucleating agent blends.
