Resumo

The fusion enthalpy and entropy of a highly syndiotactic polystyrene sample were determined by melting point depression in the presence of diluents. Three solvents were used to ascertain the presence, if any, of polymorphic modifications: dioctyl phthalate, diphenylsulphone and diphenyldiketone (benzil). The results were compared with those of the corresponding isotactic stereoisomer. Comparative observations were also made about crystallinity degree and crystallization rate of the two polymers.
