Micromechanics of thin films of elastomeric polypropylenes — •Mechthild Franke, Mario Zerson, Mario Jecke, Robert Magerle, and Nicolaus Rehse — Chemische Physik, TU Chemnitz, 09107 Chemnitz

Elastomeric polypropylene consists of lamellar crystals embedded in an amorphous matrix. The arrangement, distribution, and connectivity of these crystals are important factors which determine the mechanical properties of the polymer. Free standing, ∼1 µm thick films of different elastomeric polypropylenes are produced by dip coating the polymer solution on a NaCl crystal, floating the film onto water, and depositing it on a slotted silicon substrate. A stretching device, based on a piezoelectric drive, allows stretching the free standing film stepwise up to strains of 100%. The changes in shape, orientation, and morphology of crystalline regions are observed in situ with scanning force microscopy. Caused by the induced stress new lamellae crystallize; existing ones elongate or break into blocks. Furthermore, amorphous areas are stretched a lot more than crystalline ones. Volume images of thin films obtained with SFM based Nanotomography allow to explain some of the observed rearrangements of the microstructure.
