Abstract
AbstractThis article is principally concerned with the morphology and crystallinity of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) parts molded by injection molding, during which a self‐interference flow (SIF) occurs for the melt in the cavity. Scanning electron microscopy shows that a transverse flow takes place in SIF samples. Wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry show that SIF moldings exhibit a γ phase, in addition to α and β phases, and high crystallinity. Meanwhile, the results for iPP moldings made by the conventional flow process, that is, conventional injection molding, are reported for comparison. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
