Statistical Theory of Stable and Meta-stable Transition for Crystallization and Fusion of Homopolymers Ⅵ. Statistical Dynamics of Polymeric Crystallization by Molecular Segregation-Dependence of Crystal Growth Rate on the Grown Mechanism and Concentratio

First a short review on the dependence of crystal growth rate on the growth mechanism and concentration is present. Based on the structural model of micronucleus and crystalconstituent chains, and the feature of statistical dynamics for polymeric crystallization by molecular segregation, a general method for characterizing number the growth rate and micro crystal constituent chains and the size growth rate for crystals was proposed. According to this method, a set of quantitative expressions for correlating the growth rate in number and size with the four types of growth (folding, extending and combination of folding and extending), the crystalline temperature and the crystalline concentration was derived. Then combined the concentration index is combined with the fraction of conformation for segments, a new correlation of the concentration index to the temperature of crystallization and the flexibility of polymeric chain is theoretically obtained. The dependences of the index on the different types of growth are also studied. Finally the relationships between the growth rate for crystals and the concentration of solution were verified by the experimental validating the predictions made by the theory.
