Abstract
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data have been used to deduce the localization of organic additives in the bulk of isotactic polypropyle ne (iPP). The results have shown that changes in the thickness of a tr ansition layer are not directly connected with the introduction of add itives but with the content of the hexagonal beta-form. This leads to the conclusion that the additives are placed in the amorphous phase in spite of their crucial influence on the formation of the crystalline phase of iPP.
