Abstract
AbstractThe structure changes accompanying phase transitions in poly(diethylsiloxane) (PDES) have been studied by WAXS and SAXS techniques using oriented and isotropic samples. PDES may exist in two low‐temperature modifications (the monoclinic α1‐form and presumably the “tetragonal” β1‐form) and two high‐temperature modifications (the monoclinic α2‐form and the “tetragonal” β2‐form). In linear PDES the crystal ‐ crystal transitions α1–α2 and β1–β2 occur near 214 and 206 K, respectively. At higher temperatures α2 (280 K) and β2 (290 K) forms transform into the mesomorphic phase αm that gradually melts at 280–300 K giving an amorphous phase. According to x‐ray and density data, αm phase is also characterized by monoclinic structure slightly different from hexagonal packing.
