    Notes: Summary. The vapor induced modification of bulk samples of syndiotactic random copolymers of styrene and p-n-butylstyrene is studied by wide-angle X-ray scattering and light microscopy. Two samples with p-n-butylstyrene contents of 4 and 11 mol% are compared. It is shown that treatment with CHCl3 leads to the formation of a clathrate modification similar to that of neat syndiotactic polystyrene. The change of the surface topography of the copolymers as a result of CHCl3 vapor exposition is studied by tapping-mode/height-mode atomic force microscopy.

    Notes: The melt miscibility of atactic poly(propylene) (a-PP) with isotactic (i-PP) and syndiotactic poly(propylene) (s-PP), respectively, is investigated by diffusion experiments of i-PP/a-PP/i-PP or s-PP/a-PP/s-PP sandwich specimens using polarized light microscopy. It is shown that the system a-PP/i-PP is miscible in the melt, whereas for the system a-PP/s-PP no evidence for melt mixing is found. Pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) measurements of the three poly(propylene)s are carried out in order to determine the characteristic parameters of the Flory-Orwoll-Vrij equation-of-state theory. Theoretical predictions using the solubility parameter concept are in agreement with the observed miscibility behavior of the blends. Differences in the cohesive energy densities of a-PP and i-PP on the one side, and s-PP on the other side, are found to be responsible for the phase behavior of the mixtures of poly(propylene)s with different stereoregularity. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The isothermal crystallization behavior of thin films of isotactic poly(propylene) between plates coated with chromium, Teflon® or gold is studied by polarized light microscopy. At all contact surfaces between poly(propylene) and the other materials, transcrystallinity can be observed and competes with the growth of entities which originate in the bulk phase. The shape of these entities can be described by two intersecting paraboloids.

    Notes: The formation of holes during the late stage of the isothermal crystallization in thin films of isotactic poly(propylene) between two cover glasses was observed by light microscopy and atomic force microscopy. This behavior can be described consistently by the well-known negative pressure effect. Light microscopy reveals the simultaneous and sudden occurrence of a large number of small holes at the liquid-solid interface after the liquid in front of the spherulites is completely confined by other spherulites for a certain time interval. In exceptional cases only a few holes appear and finally large cavities are formed. Atomic force microscopy measurements carried out in the height mode are able to prove the hole formation in front of the spherulites. Furthermore, a substantial thinning of the two-dimensional spherulites in thin films can be observed prior to the hole formation.

    Notes: Single crystals grown in bulk samples of a syndiotactic random copolymer of propene and 1-octene with 4 wt.-% 1-octene are compared with single crystals of syndiotactic polypropene homopolymer. The random copolymer during isothermal crystallization at low supercoolings forms rectangular single crystals similar to syndiotactic polypropene. The single crystals of the random copolymer do not exhibit transverse cracks in contrast to neat syndiotactic polypropene. Both polymers have nearly the same linear thermal expansion coefficients along their crystallographic a- and b-axis, calculated from temperature-dependent wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) measurements. Therefore, the absence of transverse cracks in single crystals of the random copolymer can only be explained by the relatively high disorder of the crystallite surface caused by the exclusion of 1-octene segments which leads to a more isotropic thermal expansion coefficient in this region.

    Notes: Blends of atactic and syndiotactic polystyrene have a single composition dependent glass transition temperature. This does not confirm the miscibility of both polymers, however, unambiguously because there is only a small difference of 10°C in the glass transition temperatures of both neat polymers. Diffusion measurements of syndiotactic polystyrene and deuterated atactic polystyrene using the nuclear reaction D(3He,α)p confirm at least partial miscibility of both components. The average diffusion coefficient at 190°C is 2.3 ± 0.2 × 10-15 cm2/s.

    Notes: A random ethene/styrene copolymer containing 13.8 mol-% styrene was prepared with the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system Me2Si(Me4Cp)(N-t-butyl)TiCl2/methylaluminoxane and characterized by means of preparative temperature rising elution fractionation (TREF) combined with size exclusion chromatography, NMR, differential scanning calorimetry and wide-angle X-ray scattering analyses of the copolymer fractions. Efforts are made to describe the distribution of the styrene content of the copolymers using the Stockmayer-Tacx distribution function. Both, comonomer distribution and molar mass distribution strongly support the presence of a single type of catalytically active center.
