Abstract: | The changes in the supermolecular structure of polypropylene films exposed to powerful light pulses have been investigated by optical microscopy. A pulse lasting 10–3 sec produces melting of the polymer with subsequent recrystallization and the formation of a finely spherulitic structure. In connection with the change in supermolecular structure there is an increase in the breaking stress of the melted portion of the film. A pulse lasting 2·10–8 sec causes melting and vaporization of individual parts of the spherulites in the irradiated region. The remainder of the polymer is such that orientation of the structural elements with respect to the radius—the maltese cross pattern of the original spherulites—is preserved.Mekhanika Polimerov, Vol. 2, No. 6, pp. 817–822, 1966 |
