The spherulitic crystallization of isotactic polypropylene from solution: On the evolution of monoclinic spherulites from dendritic chain-folded crystal precursors
Open accessAbstract
-crystallographic axis in intercrossing branches is circa 80°. The possible origin of this unusual mode of twinning, which involves an 80° change in the orientation of the chain axes in offspring branches from that in parent branches, is briefly presented. The process of evolution of monoclinic polypropylene spherulites from the unusually twinned dendritic crystal precursors is contrasted with the evolution of spherulites in other polymers; furthermore, the relevance of the observations presented in this study to an understanding of the origin of the previously reported atypical fine structures exhibited by monoclinic spherulites of polypropylene crystallized from the melt, is discussed.

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.
