Abstract

This chapter describes the principle, recent developments, and selected applications of some commonly used experimental techniques for characterizing semicrystalline polymers. These techniques include optical microscopy (OM), electron microscopy (EM) (transmission and scanning), atomic force microscopy (AFM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), diffraction and scattering (X‐ray, neutron, and light), as well as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). This list represents some of the most commonly used methods of obtaining relevant structure and property information of semicrystalline polymers.
