| Abstract: | Absolute intensity measurements of a dynamic small-angle x-ray scattering from a linear polyethylene were carried out during polymer crystallization from melt in a temperature range of 113.5° to 124.5°C. The mean-square modulation of the electron density over the irradiated volume was evaluated and the feasibility of dynamic experimentation for crystallization kinetic analysis was established. The results provide an absolute value of mass density of the amorphous phase of a semicrystalline polymer at the crystallization temperature. |
