Abstract: Abstract: Poly(l-lactic acid) with 4% d-lactic acid comonomer has been drawn in the amorphous state at 80, 90, 100, 110 and 120°C at an extension rate of 4s−1 while simultaneously recording WAXS and SAXS patterns at intervals of 0.12s. At 80, 90 and 100°C, crystallisation is very rapid (1–4s−1) and follows a first order transformation process to give highly oriented crystals. SAXS patterns were barely detectable at these temperatures despite fractional crystallinity of ∼0.2. At 110 and 120°C, crystallisation was very slow (∼0.01s−1) and gave rise to crystals with a lower degree of orientation. After eventual crystallisation at 120°C, a two-point SAXS pattern develops with narrow lateral spread, suggesting ‘shish kebab’ morphology. When the 80°C drawn sample was annealed at 120°C, a strong four point SAXS pattern develops. The change in drawing and crystallisation behaviour at higher draw temperature is attributed to the onset of chain retraction relaxation processes. The WAXS fibre pattern after annealing shows sampling on intermediate layer lines that is consistent with the α crystal form with a 103 helix. However, prior to annealing, sampling indicates a different, less defined helical configuration. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
