PPTA fiber subjected to heat treatment under different conditions was intensively studied. Simultaneous wide-angle X-ray diffraction( WAXD) technique was introduced to study the changes of crystal structure. It was found that the tensile modulus was strongly sensitive to the levels of temperature and tension. The structure parameters including crystal size and crystal orientation after heat treatment evolve similarly to the tensile modulus,indicating a direct structure-property relationship. The lattic c-dimension increases after heat treatment and is greatly affected by the tension. An optimal temperature can be found around 400 ℃,where big change can happen in the crystal structure due to α-relaxation in the crystal region as supported in dynamic mechanical analysis( DMA).展开更多
