✦ Synopsis
Effects of annealing and atactic fraction on structural properties of isotactic polypropylene were investigated using various methods which included X-ray, NMR and DSC. Annealing at elevated temperatures results in considerable increases in crystallinity, ~m, crystal thickness, lc, heat of fusion, AH, mass fraction of rigid region, F~, and spin-lattice relaxation time, T~. There are good correlations between Ic and Fc, 7"1 and Fc, l~ and AH. The effect of the atactic fraction is strongly shown in the value of T2a ; T 2 corresponds to motion in the mobile amorphous regions, indicating that the presence of a large atactic fraction facilitates motion in the amorphous regions.
