Interactive Crystallization of a Strongly Segregated Double Crystalline Block Copolymer with Close Crystallizable Temperatures
Abstract
The crystallization process of a new crystalline−crystalline diblock copolymer with close crystallizable temperatures, poly(β-propiolactone)- block -linear low density polyethylene (PPL- b -PE), has been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SR-SAXS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). PPL- b -PE formed a strongly segregated microdomain structure in the melt, so that crystallization of both PPL and PE blocks was effectively confined within this structure without morphological transition. When PPL- b -PE was cooled from the microphase-separated melt at constant rates ( i.e ., nonisothermal crystallization), the PE block started to crystallize first, followed immediately by the crystallization of PPL blocks. As a result, the crystallization process of PPL blocks was overlapped with the late stage of PE crystallization (coincident crystallization), where crystallization of one block significantly affected the crystallization behavior of the other block. When PPL- b -PE was isothermally crystallized, such coincident crystallization was not observed and both blocks crystallized separately.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In strongly segregated systems (high χN values, T_ODT > Tg > Tc), the phase segregated structure of the melt is preserved, but the amorphous block is in the glassy state, so crystallization of the crystalline block occurs under hard confinement.
“The phase segregated structure of the melt is preserved, but in this case, the amorphous block is in the glassy state, therefore the crystallization process of the crystalline block occurs under hard confinement (the same behaviour is observed for double crystalline diblock copolymers, once the first block crystallizes, the second one crystallizes under hard confinement) [ 101 , 104 , 105 , 108 ,”

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.
