Polymer Microscopy

Abstract

Characterization of the microstructure of polymer fibers can provide insights into the fundamental structures present and into the relationship between structure and properties important for applications. Morphological characterization provides information to help understand the effects of processing history on mechanical and other physical properties. Microscopy techniques are used to observe features such as: fiber shape, diameter, structure (crystal size, voids, etc.), molecular orientation, size and distribution of additives, structure of yarn and fabric assemblages and failure mechanisms. These features are directly related to specific mechanical and thermal properties. Emphasis in this section is on assessment of the structure of polymer fibers as it relates to solving problems or evaluating the effect of process modifications. Fibers prepared from liquid crystalline polymers require special techniques and interpretation which will be described later (Section 5.6). It must be emphasized that any study of polymer fibers will be incomplete if the only technique applied is microscopy. X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis (DSC, TGA, heat shrinkage) and spectroscopy (IR, Raman, XPS) are among the many techniques which complement microscopy investigations (Section 7.4).
