Integrated polymer spherulites growing from one homogeneous nucleation site in supercritical fluid

Abstract

Integrated micro-sized spherulites of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), with one clear homogeneous nucleation site and sheaf-like lamellae, have been successfully prepared from supercritical fluid of ethanol, supplying a propagating stage from sheaf-like dendrite to final spherical crystal.
