Effects of the Original Crystallization Temperature

Effects of the original crystallization temperature and of the dissolution temperature in relationship to the crystalline melting point of PEO (in equilibrium with solvent) T may be summarized in two rules  

Thus the thermal history of a copolymer even in a dilute suspension determines the number of nuclei available for recrystallization. In addition, the nature of the nuclei is evidently also affected.
