Abstract

It is shown that the sorption method makes it possible to quantitatively estimate the presence of ordered structures in the supramolecular structure of partially crystalline and liquid-crystalline paraamide polymers. Using 1H NMR spectroscopy and the sorption method, the growth of liquid-crystalline type structures during spinning and thermal treatment of the poly(paraamide) fiber is analyzed. A comparison of the 1H NMR spectra of the as-spun and heat-treated fibers at low temperatures (110–210 K) in a rigid lattice reveals that “loose” disordered microregions occur in the fiber before thermal treatment. Thermal treatment results in the “healing” of structural defects and leads to the appearance of liquid-crystalline-type structures owing to the large-scale quasi-segmental motion at a high temperature.
