Abstract

Structural studies of poly(aryl ether ether ketone ketone) (PEEKK) using small-angle X-ray scattering and one-dimensional electron density correlation function methods revealed that its aggregated state structure was significantly influenced by the annealing temperature. The long period L, the average thickness of the lamellae d, the electron density difference between the crystalline and amorphous regions ηc − ηa, and the invariant Q increased with increasing annealing temperature, but it was opposite to the case of the specific inner surfaces Os. A transition zone existed between the traditional “two phases” with a dimension about 0.5 nm for semicrystalline PEEKK. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 69: 1829–1835, 1998
