CBE Special Seminar: Bernard Lotz (CNRS and Université de Strasbourg)
Engineering Building I- Room 1005 911 Partners Way, Raleigh, NC, United StatesAbstract Crystalline polymers morphology: an overview The organization and structure of polymers is analyzed by various techniques. Global means, such as DSC, are ideal when dealing with e.g. phase transitions (crystallization, melting, glass transition, etc.). Some of these techniques (e.g. IR or NMR) do probe local features and sub-molecular dynamics. Analysis of the crystalline polymers…
