Abstract
The crystallization and melting processes in statistically crosslinked poly mers were theoretically studied. The temperature dependences of entropy and heat capacity in the vicinity of the crystal-melt phase transition were de termined. The crystal-melt transformation in a statistically crosslinked po lymer is a continuous first-order phase transition.
