Abstract:

The method for calculating the size distribution of nanocrystalline elements in lamellar and fibrillar polymer morphologies was proposed. The distribution of the longitudinal size of these elements in lamellas and microfibrils of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene was calculated using differential scanning calorimetry data. The calculation results are consistent with the data obtained by the X-ray method.
