Not time itself, but when time and heat work together, yes.
As increasing heat builds up inside the kernel, the steam pressure causes the kernel to explode, or pop, and at the same time cooks the fluffy starch that has given up its water. Longer heating times will still not pop all the popcorn, because some kernels will leak out their steam without breaking open the kernel. Heating these will only cause them to burn up.

All popcorn bags are different might have less kernels or less unpopped kernels when u cook it. I am doing a science fair project and I'm doing it on, "Does the different brands of popcorn affect the total of unpopped kernels?" I have a lot of info that you can see above. You think there is no a lot of info but go to Google and type in, "does different types of popcorn affect the total of unpopped kernels and look. One thing that makes a difference is amount of popcorn in the bag, how much time you put it in for, and the most important is INGREDIENTS. This girl did something like this and she said palm oil makes a difference. The smallest things make the biggest differences.
How can you reheat unpopped popcorn kernels?

Then fold the cloth so that you can see the kernels trough the cloth. Then place them in a small cup and water them frequently and keep up with the results.
Does temperature affect popcorn popping?
Yes temperature does affect how popcorn pops. It the temperature is too low, not very many kernels will heat up enough to explode. If the temperature is too hot, you will burn the kernels that explode first. Using a stir type hot air popper will eliminate some of these issues.

Popcorn pops in a microwave because there is a tiny amount of water trapped inside the kernels When that water is heated it turns to steam. Pressure builds and then the kernels pop!
