Abstract:Seven experimental poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fibers were spun and then drawn under different processing conditions (i.e., spinning speed and draw ratio) in such a way that the fibers possessed different long periods but retained the same crystal structure. Wide angle X‐ray diffraction, small angle X‐ray scattering, loss modulus, initial modulus, and taut tie molecules measurements were used to characterize the fine structure and the physical property of the fibers. The influence of the fine structure … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
