✦ Synopsis


Abstract

We show that small quantities of 1,3:2,4‐di(4‐chlorobenzylidene) sorbitol dispersed in poly(ε‐caprolactone) provide a very effective self‐assembling nanoscale framework which, with a flow field, yields extremely high levels of polymer crystal orientation. During modest shear flow of the polymer melt, the additive forms highly extended nano‐particles which adopt a preferred alignment with respect to the flow field. On cooling, polymer crystallisation is directed by these particles. This chloro substituted dibenzylidene sorbitol is considerably more effective at directing the crystal growth of poly(ε‐caprolactone) than the unsubstituted compound.

The decompositions of the following poly(vinyl chloride) models were investigated in the gas phase: trans-l,3-dichloro-l-pentene (in the range 310-380°), trans-5-chloro-3-heptene (296-357°), cis-4-chloro-2-pentene (295-340 °) and racem, and meso 2,4-dichloropentane at 351 and 370 °. The decompositio
