Abstract
The influence of stem conformation on the crystallization of i-PP is studied by growing α-form lamellae in melts of β-form lamellae at different temperatures. The melting of β-form lamellae and the crystallization of α-form lamellae is observed in situ at the interface of α- and β-form spherulites by AFM. The growth rate of α-form lamellae in the melt of β-form lamellae is much lower than that in the isotropic melt due to the stem conformation barrier, which originates from the difference in the α and β unit cell packing models.
