Concentric-ringed structures in polymer thin films

Novel polymer crystalline structures containing micrometer-sized concentric rings (or bands) were observed in thin poly(bisphenol A hexane ether) (BA-C6) films. The origin of the banded structures was found to be different from that of traditional banded spherulites in polymer systems. Analyses base...

520 |a Novel polymer crystalline structures containing micrometer-sized concentric rings (or bands) were observed in thin poly(bisphenol A hexane ether) (BA-C6) films. The origin of the banded structures was found to be different from that of traditional banded spherulites in polymer systems. Analyses based on optical microscopy (OM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that the banded structures contained alternating ridge and valley bands of polymer crystals in the flat-on orientation. No lamellar twisting was observed within the concentric-ringed structures, which were developed as a result of the formation of a depletion zone during crystallization. The formation of a depletion zone was determined to be caused by the specific volume decrement between the crystal and the melt and by the diffusion of polymer chains to the fold surfaces of the flat-on lamellae. The height of the ridges and the interband widths could be adjusted by controlling the diffusion rate. Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry ion images showed higher concentrations of low-molecular-weight polymer chains on the surfaces of the ridges than in the valleys
