A convenient quantitative study of polymer mesophase induced by isothermal annealing

Abstract

A convenient quantitative study of a mesophase of syndiotactic polystyrene induced by isothermal annealing was carried out via FT-IR spectroscopy. The absorptivity ratio of mesophase to amorphous phase was found to be independent of annealing time, and varied with annealing temperature. The fraction of mesophase firstly increased with annealing time, then tended to reach a plateau.
