Abstract

Self‐seeded crystallization experiments were carried out to detect the mechanism of the unique orientation behavior of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) in oriented PVDF/nylon 11 blends. It was found that primary nuclei have no effects on the final orientation textures adopted by PVDF. The results show that the PVDF crystal orientation in the oriented blends is determined in the early stage of crystal growth, thus a trans crystallization mechanism is preferred.
