Nucleation plays a vital role in polymer crystallization, in which chain connectivity and thus
the multiple length and time scales make crystal nucleation of polymer chains an interesting …

Recent developments concerned with elucidating the semicrystalline structure formation in
bulk polymer melts, with a focus on possibly important factors that have received less …

Many types of self-assembled 2D materials with fascinating morphologies and novel
properties have been prepared and used in solution. However, it is still a challenge to …

Stacks of crystalline lamellae all having a uniquely oriented hexagonal shape, referred to as
“3D (three-dimensional) single crystals”, were obtained via isothermal crystallization of …

Morphology of poly (vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF) single crystals grown in its blends with poly
(1, 4-butylene adipate)(PBA) has been studied in detail. Another type of γ-PVDF single …

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are gaining tremendous attention as an
environmentally friendly technology that converts low-frequency mechanical energy into …

Blends of a small amount of poly (vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF) with miscible low-melting-point
poly (1, 4-butylene adipate)(PBA) were prepared, and the structures of PVDF formed in the …

In this study, we show that doping lanthanides into lamellar crystals reorganizes the lamellar
structure and dramatically changes the crystal morphology. Azo-DA, a compound with …

We examined the formation of self-seeded platelet-like crystals from polystyrene-block-
polyethylene oxide (PS-b-PEO) diblock copolymers in toluene as a function of polymer …

Polymer single crystals are composed of well-ordered polymer chains and possess a
characteristic symmetric shape. If one can precisely control the microregional morphology …
