Abstract
AbstractPolyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) films were prepared for evaluating the effect of electromagnetic field and Eucalyptus oil Citriodora as an additive on the polymorphism. The values of PVDF crystalline phases were determined by attenuated total reflection‐Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry was performed to achieve the crystallinity degree of the PVDF films. To evaluate the impact of the electromagnetic field on the PVDF crystalline phases, the polymeric solution was placed in 1 tesla electromagnetic field for different times. The proper time for dominating the β phase was determined 10 min. Additionally, the sum of β and γ phases percentages augmented from 28.8 for the sample without the additive of Eucalyptus oil Citriodora to 65.2 for the sample containing 8% additive.
