Slow crystallization of sustainable polymers prevents economically viable processing times and hinders their broader industrial adoption. We discovered a new class of nucleating agents that drastically accelerate polymer crystallization, and developed a framework to promote their formation. This ENABLE project validates the concept under realistic processing conditions to deliver formulation guidelines for packaging and pharmaceutical applications.
