Abstract
The influence of the chain conformation on the crystallization behavio r of cold-drawn syndiotactic polypropylene (sPP) has been investigated . The conformational and structural changes depending on drawing condi tions and thermal treatments has been observed by x-ray diffraction, i nfra-red spectroscopy and modulated differential scanning calorimetry. A nucleation and crystal growth model is introduced, which explains t he low crystallinity of cold-drawn sPP.
