Description

Samples of ultradispersed polytetrafluoroethylene, which were prepared with the use of different technological approaches, were studied by X-ray diffraction. The samples were found to belong to the monoclinic system. For some samples, basal reflections, which can be related to paraffins, were found for the first time. This indicates that polymer chains can form yet another type of monoclinic structure.
