Investigations on banded spherulites
Abstract
The nature of banded spherulites was further investigated. The principal material used was a polyester, namely, polytrimethylene glutarate, but use was made also of nonpolymeric materials. A variety of observations on extinction effects with the Universal Stage conclusively confirmed the twisted crystal model of banded spherulites. It is shown that banding observed in the form of other than extinction effects need not indicate a zone structure. Such bands can be due to diffraction effects or pseudopleochroism following from the twisted structure, examples of such effects being quoted. In some cases, genuine rhythmic distribution of matter was observed, and it is shown that these effects arise in two‐dimensional spherulites only, and can still follow from the twisted morphology under the influence of a substrate. Direct observations of a helicoidal morphology are also quoted.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
