Popis: | The morphology of syndiotactic polypropylene (sPP) containing >99% racemic diads has been investigated following controlled crystallization from the melt in thin films. At high growth temperatures, large rectangular single crystals are obtained with preferred growth along the crystallographic b-axis, while at lower temperatures these branch out to yield dendritic, axialitic, and eventually spherulitic aggregates. These crystals exhibit two very unusual properties: transverse fractures and ripples. Both are quasi-periodic, the fractures with a spacing of 3-7 μm and the ripples generally 1 μm or less |
