Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The behavior of guest molecules entrapped in the cocrystal system of syndiotactic polystyrene (sPS) have been studied mainly small angle neutron scattering method (SANS). It has been found that although the diffusibility of guest molecules in the crystalline region of sPS cocrystals is quite low when compared with that in the amorphous region, the guest exchange process takes place relatively smoothly owing to the rather thin crystalline lamellae of the sPS cocrystal. It has been also clarified that the desorption process of guest molecules varies drastically depending on their molecular weight. The new method for structural studies, which makes it possible carriy out simultaneously SANS and Fourier infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic measurements simultaneously. It has been proven that the system can provides various information of different scales, from mesoscopic to local molecular scales.
