Popis: As-spun poly (p-phenylene terephthalamide)(PPTA) fibers have been annealed by three different methods: (1) the relaxation mode; (2) the constant temperature mode; and (3) the constant tension mode. Wide-angle x-ray diffraction (WAXD) was used with all three modes to characterize the changes in three crystal structure parameters: the degree of crystal orientation, the apparent crystal size, and the lattice strain along the c-axis of the crystal unit cell. It was found that internal stresses in the fibers, which are frozen-in during either the fiber spinning process or in later anealing, is the key factor causing these structure parameter changes
