Mechanism of thickness determination in polymer crystals
Based upon kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of crystallization in a simple polymer mode) we present a new picture of the mechanism by which the thickness of lamellar polymer crystals is constrained to a value close to the minimum thermodynamically stable thickness.

description | Based upon kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of crystallization in a simple polymer mode) we present a new picture of the mechanism by which the thickness of lamellar polymer crystals is constrained to a value close to the minimum thermodynamically stable thickness. This description contrasts with those given by the two dominant theoretical approaches. |
