Abstract

Birefringence, anisotropic heat conduction, and wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) investigations have been performed on one set of uniaxially drawn samples of polycarbonate (PC). The orientation parameters from heat conduction and from WAXS are well correlated. The intrinsic birefringence is determined to Δn 0 = 0.106 in agreement with the monomer polarizability calculated on the basis of model structures. The short range order as evidenced by WAXS does not depend on the degree of orientation in PC. Over small regions (≤ 1.5 nm) the molecular arrangement is similar to that in the crystalline state.
