Abstract

Abstract In this study, a survey has been made of the applicability to the crystallization of partially tactic polypropylene of Flory's theoretical relations concerning crystallization in copolymers. To this end, the crystallinity and modulus of several fractions of polypropylene of varying tacticity were measured and compared with theoretical calculations.
