## Abstract **Summary:** Solution‐grown, chain‐folded lamellar crystals of poly(16‐hexadecalactone) (PHDL) were crystallized isothermally from 1‐hexanol at 70 °C. The morphology of lozenge‐shaped crystals was studied by TEM and AFM. The lamellae are ca. 10 nm thick and the chains run orthogonal to

## Abstract **Summary:** Solution‐grown chain‐folded lamellar single crystals of poly(tetramethylene adipate) (PTMA) were prepared from a dilute solution of 2‐methyl‐1‐propanol by isothermal crystallization. PTMA crystals were hexagonal‐shaped and polyethylene decoration of the crystals resulted in
## Abstract ^13^C solid‐state exchange NMR is applied to study the influence of morphology on chain diffusion between crystalline and noncrystalline regions in ultrahigh molecular weight linear polyethylene (PE). Lamellar‐doubling reduces the exchange rate by a factor of two indicating that the cha
To analyze extended-chain crystalline systems composed of linear polyethylene, Flory's conventional theory of fusion is reconsidered by introducing a new concept of crystallinity. When this new treatment is applied to a melting case of a low molecular weight polyethylene fraction ( M n Å 5600) isoth
Four members of the even-even nylon 2 Y series, for Y Å 6, 8, 10, and 12, have been crystallized in the form of chain-folded lamellar single crystals from 1,4butanediol and studied by transmission electron microscopy ( imaging and diffraction ) , x-ray diffraction, and thermal analysis. The structur
