OPTICAL STUDIES OF THE MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES IN DEFORMING POLYOLEFINS
Abstract
The photographic technique for studying light scattering patterns from polymer films is reviewed. Calculations are presented for the scattering from sphere and disk-like aggregates of crystals of differing polarizabilities, and comparison is made with experiment. The effect of size distribution is considered. The use of the optical diffractometer technique for interpreting scattering pictures is discussed. Comparison of information obtained by light scattering and light and electron microscopy is made. (Author)
