fundamentals of polymer crystallography
Using core concepts in physics, chemistry, polymer science and
engineering, this book sheds new light on the complex field of
polymer crystallography, enabling readers to evaluate polymer
crystallization data and determine the best methods to use for
their investigations. The authors set forth a variety of tested and
proven methods for analyzing ordered and disordered structures in
polymer crystals, including X-ray diffraction, electron
diffraction, and microscopy. In addition to the basics, the book
explores several advanced and emerging topics in the field such as
symmetry breaking, frustration, and the principle of density-driven
phase formation.
Crystals and Crystallinity in Polymers introduces two new
concepts in crystallinity and crystals in synthetic polymers.
First, crystallinity in polymeric materials is compatible with the
absence of true three-dimensional long-range order. Second, the
disorder may be described as a structural feature, using the
methods of X-ray scattering and electron diffraction analysis.
The book begins by introducing the basic principles and methods
for building structural models for the conformation of polymer
crystal chains. Next, it covers:
* Packing of macromolecules in polymer crystals
* Methods for extracting structural parameters from diffraction
data
* Defects and disorder in polymer crystals
* Analytical methods for diffuse scattering from disordered
polymer structures
* Crystal habit
* Influence of crystal defects and structural disorder on the
physical and mechanical properties of polymeric materials
Crystals and Crystallinity in Polymers examines all the
possible types of structural disorder generally present in polymer
crystals and describes the influence of each kind of disorder on
X-ray and electron diffraction patterns. Its comprehensive, expert
coverage makes it possible for readers to learn and apply the
fundamentals of polymer crystallography to solve a broad range of
problems.
