Nominal stress-strain curves of a series of random ethylene-hexene copolymers having narrow composition and most probable molecular weight distributions were investigated. A series of such molecular weight copolymers with a constant concentration of branches were crystallized under a variety of cond

β¦ Synopsis
Block copolymers, having the configuration ethylene sulphide-isoprene-styrene or ethylene sulphide-isoprene ethylene sulphide, have been characterized to define the structure of the ethylene sulphide moiety. It is concluded that ethylene sulphide-isoprene-styrene block copolymers exist in solution and in bulk (above the styrene softening point)as radial aggregates held together by polyethylene sulphide crystallites. During polymerization, these crystallites are formed with a linear extended chain morphology which is retained in bulk in ethylene sulphide-isoprene styrene copolymers: in the copolymers which require processing above the melting point of the ethylene sulphide crystallites, the linear morphology is destroyed during moulding.
