Abstract: | Summary The transition properties of poly(vinylidenefluoride) and of some related copolymers, either semicrystalline or amorphous, were studied by differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range from 200 K to 500 K. The amorphous copolymers exhibit a single glass transition. Melting endotherms and a lower glass transition Tg(L)] are systematically observed in the semi-crystalline materials as well as an upper glass transition Tg(U)] for certain thermal and mechanical histories of the samples. Conditions for Tg(U)] existence are related to solid state morphology of the macromolecules and loop length in the folded chains. |
