Abstract
The crystallization of isotactic poly(4-methylpentene-1) in its stable tetr agonal crystal modification based on the 7(2) helix conformation was achiev ed on three different low molecular weight organic substrates and on polyte trafluoroethylene. The contact face was always the (100) face, although the details of the epitaxial relationships generated one, two, or even three c hain axis orientations in the polymer epitaxial overgrowth.
