On the triple melting behaviour of poly(ethylene succinate)

抄録

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The morphology of melt‐crystallized poly(ethylene succinate) (PES) was investigated by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, and the melting behaviour of PES was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). At low crystallization temperature imperfect crystals were formed which could melt and recrystallize during the DSC scan. Triple melting peaks were observed, and the melting behaviour was strongly dependent on crystallization time and scan rate. It was observed that crystallization at high temperature perfected the crystals (dominant and subsidiary lamellae in the spherulitic structure). Increasing the scan rate reduced the chance for reorganization. However, at high crystallization temperature two melting peaks were observed. The material formed was much more perfect, so that the melting process was not dominated by recrystallization. Accordingly, the cause of dual melting is the existence of two kinds of crystal perfection.</jats:p>
