Decoupling the Roles of Chain Length, Entanglements, and Intermolecular Interactions on the Melt Memory of Semicrystalline Polar Homopolymers
{{output}}
In polymer crystals, chains are closely packed within unit cells. If they are heated above their melting point, they require a specific temperature and time to revert their ordered conformations to isotropic random coils in the melt. When the temperature is sl... ...
