The effect of the uniaxial and biaxial stretching and subsequent solution annealing of extrusion-cast polyamide-11 films on the crystalline structure and morphology was investigated with differential scanning calorimetry, wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The extrusion-cast polyamide-11 films exhibited elevations in the glass-transition and cold-crystallization temperatures with a constant crystallinity and a constant melting point during aging under room conditions (20-26 degreesC and 20-31% relative humidity). WAXD and SAXS suggested that chain-folded lamellae of coexisting alpha- and beta-crystals existed in all the stretched polyamide-11 films. WAXD pole figures indicated that hydrogen bonds in the hydrogen-bonded sheets of these two crystalline forms apparently formed between antiparallel chain molecules. The unit cell parameters [a = 9.52 Angstrom, b = 5.35 Angstrom, c = 14.90 Angstrom (chain axis), alpha = 48.5degrees, beta = 90degrees, and gamma = 74.7degrees for a triclinic alpha form and a = 9.52 Angstrom, b = 14.90 Angstrom (chain axis), c = 4.00 Angstrom, alpha = 90degrees, beta = 67.5degrees, and gamma = 90degrees for a monoclinic beta form] for polyamide-11 crystals were proposed according to the results of this study and the results of previous investigators. The unit cell parameters of the stretched extrusion-cast polyamide-11 films varied, depending on the stretching conditions (the stretch temperature and stretch ratio). As the stretch temperature and stretch ratio were increased, the crystal became more similar to the form described previously and was accompanied by an increase in the long spacing of crystalline lamellae. Annealing the stretched films in a boiling 20% formic acid solution made slightly more perfected crystals. The hydrogen-bonding alpha(010) + beta(002) planes, which are nearly parallel to both amide group planes and zigzag methylene sequence planes of the biaxially stretched films were found to be parallel to the film surface.
