STRUCTURAL AND MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF DEFORMED POLYMER USING CONFOCAL RAMAN MICROSCOPY AND DSC

摘要： Polymers have various interesting properties, which depend largely on their inner structure. One way to in?uence the macroscopic behaviour is the deformation of the polymer chains, which e?ects the change in microstructure. For analyzing the microstructure of non-deformed and deformed polymer materials, Raman spectroscopy as well as di?erential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used. In the present study we compare the results for crystallinity measurements of deformed polymers using both methods in order to characterize the di?erences in micro-structure due to deformation. The study is ongoing, and we present the results of the ?rst tests.
