Abstract
Interaction of ultra-cold neutrons with the semicrystalline polymers i s studied theoretically. Analytic expressions are obtained for the cro ss-sections of elastic scattering of neutrons on two-phase ideal and n on-ideal systems. Using a time-of-flight spectrometer for the ultra-co ld neutrons with the range of wavelengths lambda > 2 nm, the total cro ss-sections of interaction of neutrons with films of different sorts o f polyethylene and deuterated polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene an d ethylene-allene copolymer are measured. Parameters of supramolecular structure of these polymers are determined. The peculiarities of inel astic scattering of neutrons close to the relaxational transitions are studied.
