The crystallization rates of fractions of poly(ethylene oxide) have been studied microseopically and dilatometrically. Nucleation theory has been adapted to take account of the finite molecular weight and the molecular weight distribution of the fractions. It is found that the free energy of formati

The cyclization dynamics of pyrene end-labelled poly(ethylene oxide) (mol. wt 1070, 1350 and 3700) have been studied in both poor and good solvents. The observed dependence of the cyclization rate constant on the molecular weight is not in accord with the "'bead-spring" model or with cyclizauon prob
A two-stage stable system of isotactic polypropylene-poly(ethylene oxide) blend, in which poly(ethylene oxide) can be permanent either in molten or in crystallized states in the temperature range from 280 to 327 K, was described. The behavior of that blend was explained in terms of fractionated crys
## Abstract The crystallization kinetics of a range of fractions of poly(ethylene oxide) are presented and analyzed. It is concluded that deviations from the Avrami equation with exponent of 3 are mainly due to rejection of low molecular weight molecules for the low molecular weight fractions (__MΜ
