Monte Carlo Simulation for the Morphology and Kinetics of Spherulites and Shish-Kebabs in Isothermal Polymer Crystallization

Monte Carlo method is used to capture the evolution of spherulites and shish-kebabs and to predict the crystallization kinetics in isothermal polymer crystallization. Effects of nucleation density and growth rate of spherulites, nucleation density, and length growth rate of shish-kebabs, respectivel...
