Abstract

In the present research, we report for the first time the X-ray fiber pattern and polarized IR/Raman spectra taken for the uniaxially oriented disorder α form of PLLA, which can confirm the existence of the disorder PLLA α form (α′-form) and provide some new insight on the structural difference between the order and disorder α forms.
