In weakly segregated systems (low χN values, T_ODT > Tc > Tg), there is little morphological restriction for crystallization, allowing a break out from the ordered melt structure, so crystallization determines the final structure, usually forming crystalline lamellae and erasing the previous melt structure.
“In this case, there is little morphological restriction for the crystallization process, which allows a break out from the ordered melt structure, therefore the crystallization determines the final structure, usually crystalline lamellae are formed, erasing the previous structure of the melt [ 102 , 103 , 109 , 121 , 125 , 150-153 , 160-171 ].”

In medium segregated systems (medium χN values, T_ODT > Tc > Tg), the final morphology depends on the applied thermal procedure: if the sample is cooled from the melt very fast (quenching), the morphology of the melt is maintained; otherwise, the final morphology is governed by the crystallization process.
“For these block copolymers the final morphology (i.e., the morphology of the solidified sample) depends on the applied thermal procedure: if the sample is cooled from the melt very fast, i.e., quenching, the morphology of the melt is maintained. Otherwise, the final morphology will be governed by the crystallization process [ 102 , 103 , 150-153 , 160-164 , 172 , 173 ].”

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.
