摘要
The degree of order has been estimated for a commercial aramid fiber, Kevlar 49, poly(p-phenyleneterephthalamide), an ultra high modulus, highly oriented fiber material. The uniaxial orientation has been formulated to second order in terms of an orientational distribution function using Legendre polynomials containing both the second and fourth cosine moment averages. These averages have been determined by polarized fluorescence measurements of the intrinsic fluorescence of the sample. Difficulties with depolarization due to intermolecular energy transfer are discussed. The second-order orientational distribution function for the polymer is compared with that for a low molecular weight thermotropic nematic liquid crystal. © 1979 American Chemical Society.
