Abstract:An attempt is made to clarify the possibility of molecular weight fractionation during isothermal crystallization studied by computer simulation technique and experiments on Marlex 50 by differential scanning calorimetry. The basic equation: [dC(t)/dt]t=, = F(t) of the KAWAI theory (where, dC(t)/dt is the rate of crystallization, F(t) is the distribution function of retardation time t) can only be valid when the broadness of F(t), as defined by the ratio of maximum t to minimum t, is 102 or greater. The isothe… Show more
