The morphology of glassy amorphous thin polycarbonate film cast from solution is affected by thermal treatments. Annealing above 80° C and below Tgresults in an increase in the size of the ordered regions, nodules, up to several hundred Angströms. The crystallization process from the glass, taking place at 145° C, is divided into three major steps. At first the nodules merge into patches which aggregate to form lamellar planar structures. In some cases the planar structures are well-formed single crystals. Following this, spherulitic arms develop from the planar structures as centers. These arms at first consist of aggregates of large nodules which recrystallize to form lamellae; the final morphology is spherulitic in nature. The effect of film thickness and of several substrates on the morphology has been observed. Applying stress at room temperature to the crystalline film results in a breaking up of the lamellae into small blocks.
