Furthermore, hydration had little effect on the crystalline materials, though degradation over 8 months resulted in loss of mechanical properties for samples produced at higher annealing temperatures. Google Scholar. Formation of spherulites affects many properties of the polymer material; in particular, crystallinity, density, tensile strength and Young's modulus of polymers increase during spherulization. As mentioned above, the crystalline properties of semi-crystalline polymer foams usually have an obvious effect on the mechanical properties, therefore, different heat treatment process and heat treatment service temperature inevitably produce foams with diverse crystalline characteristics.

Interestingly, this reduction in crystallinity drastically influenced the mechanical properties of the new DPP-polymers, by promoting their stretching ability, reducing the elastic modulus of the polymers, and facilitating the molecular alignment after stretch. In contrast, both crystallinity and molecular weight independently influenced the toughness. This increase is due to the lamellae fraction within the spherulites, where the molecules are more densely packed than in the amorphous phase.

These chains fold together and form ordered regions called lamellae, which compose larger spheroidal structures named spherulites. This is followed by a much sharper drop at the melting point. Crystallization of polymers is a process associated with partial alignment of their molecular chains. Crystallization affects optical, mechanical, thermal and chemical properties of the polymer. The results show that isotacticity plays an important role in the spherulitic morphology and mechanical properties. Phule) In contrast, both crystallinity and molecular weight independently influenced the toughness. The tensile strengths, ten sile moduli and fracture toughnesses of the polymer, and the mixed mode I and mode II fracture toughnesses of the composite were measured at crystallinities ranging from 27 to 43 percent by weight. The molecular weight of the polymer affects several end properties of the polymer including the mechanical properties. The wear resistance of PTFE was enhanced with the increase of crystallinity in rubbery state, since larger energy was needed to break the links between crystallites.
