Research Progress of Solvent-induced Crystallization

The crystalline polymer could be crystallized below the glass transition temperature(T_g),and accelerate crystallizing rate above T_g,when it was immersed in the solvent or solvent steam.This was called solvent-induced crystallization,or liquid-induced crystallization.In this paper,the crystallization mechanism,kinetics and morphology of solvent-induced crystallization were reviewed and discussed.
