With a focus on structure-property relationships, this book describes how polymer
morphology affects properties and how scientists can modify them. The book covers …

A series of nanoporous membranes prepared from polyethylene-block-polystyrene were
applied for size-selective diffusion of glucose and albumin molecules. Millimeter-sized test …

The morphological development of melt-drawn transparent high-density polyethylene during
heating was investigated employing in-situ synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) …

Ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) fibers were prepared by a
combination of melt-spinning and melt-drawing. An as-spun fiber without melt fracture was …

With a combination of fast extension rheometer and in situ synchrotron radiation ultra‐fast
small‐and wide‐angle X‐ray scattering, flow‐induced crystallization (FIC) of isotactic …

The effect of blending a small amount of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) on molecular
entanglements during melt-drawing of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) …

Blend films composed of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) and normal
molecular weight polyethylene (NMW-PE) with various ratios were prepared. Structural …

A novel in situ measurement system for evaluating molecular mobility during uniaxial
drawing of polymeric materials was established by introducing drawing and stress‐detecting …

Crystalline homopolymers, including polyethylene (PE), which has the simplest architecture,
form a nanometer‐sized combination of crystalline and amorphous components, but their …

The relationship between entanglement characteristics and transient crystallization during
drawing from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) melts is discussed …
