The rate of hydrolysis depends not only on the tacticity of the polymer, but probably also on its configurational sequence statistics. |
This association explains strong dependencies of the statistical segment length on tacticity and temperature in the vicinity of the melting point. |
Metallocene catalysts allow for control of tacticity in polyolefins, making it possible to synthesize materials with a wide range of properties from a single monomer. |
These critical deformation rates are themselves influenced by the tacticity of the molecule and can therefore be tailored with careful synthesis. |
It is found that tacticity has no influence on the molecular structure in solution, while it plays a role in the gel state. |
