description

Phase distribution of quenched samples has been determined by a deconvolution procedure of WAXS spectra in a wide range of cooling rates. The informations collected together with isothermal and DSC results provide a very wide set of data on the crystallization kinetics of polymers relevant which covers conditions encountered in most polymer processing operations. They have been compared with predictions of a non-isothermal crystallization model assuming two independent and parallel crystallization processes competing during solidification.
