The unique, butterfly-like structure of carboxylate-alumoxanes correlates well with the nucleation characteristics of iPP and, for the first time, the impact of a thermally induced, crystalline transition of carboxylate-alumoxanes, which alters neither the structural conformation nor the nucleation efficiency of the transformed material, is demonstrated.</p>1 aMani, Mohan, Raj1 aChellaswamy, Ramesh1 aMarathe, Yogesh, N.1 aPillai, Vijayamohanan, K.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/role-molecular-structure-carboxylate-alumoxanes-enhanced-nucleation-polypropylene-0
