摘要
The kinetics of structure formation and the thermal properties of the ordered phase were analyzed calorimetrically for a rigid polymer, characterized by an irregular chemical structure. The transition from the nematic melt to a partially ordered state was found to involve two different processes, a fast and a slow one. The fast one corresponds apparently to a thermally activated nucleation and growth mechanism, whereas the slow one is strongly self delaying. Its transition rate is only weakly dependent on the temperature. The thermal properties of the ordered phase, resulting from this process, vary strongly with the annealing temperature and annealing time. The enthalpy and entropy of fusion, characteristic for the pure ordered phase, are lower by a factor of about 10 in comparison to the corresponding values of flexible chain molecules.
