dc.description.abstract | Solid-solid transitions in poly (hexamethylene carbonate) (PC6) and poly (octamethylene carbonate) (PC8), denoted δ to α transition, have been investigated, using self-nucleation and Successive Self-nucleation and Annealing (SSA) technique. The SSA protocol was performed in-situ for thermal (differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)), structural (Wide-angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS)), and conformational (Fourier-transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR)) characterization. The final heating after SSA fractionation displayed an enhanced (compared to a standard second DSC heating scan) endothermic and unfractionated peak signal at low temperatures corresponding to the δ to α transition. The improved (i.e., higher enthalpy and temperature than in other crystallization conditions) δ to α transition signal is produced by annealing the thickest lamellae made up by α and β phase crystals after SSA treatment. As thicker lamellae are annealed, more significant changes are produced in the δ to α transition, demonstrating the transition dependence on crystal stability, thus, on the crystallization conditions. The ability of SSA to significantly enhance the observed solid-solid transitions makes it an ideal tool to detect and study this type of transitions. In-situ WAXS reveals that the δ to α transition corresponds to a change in the unit cell dimensions, evidenced by an increase in the d-spacing. This implies a more efficient chain packing in the crystal, for both samples, in the δ phase (lower d-spacing at low temperatures) than in the α phase (higher d-spacing at high temperatures). The chain packing differences are explained through in-situ FT-IR measurements that show the transition from ordered (δ phase) to disordered (α phase) methylene chain conformations. | es_ES |
