Preparation and Properties of Polyallenes. II. Phase Transitions of Polyallene

Abstract
Polyallenes prepared with the aid of organoaluminum-VOCl3 catalysts appear to exist in three distinct phases: two crystalline phases (I and II) and an amorphous phase. Phase I shows two strong X-ray diffraction peaks at d = 5.62 Å and d = 4.04 Å; phase II has three strong peaks at d = 6.28 Å, d = 5.03 Å, and d = 4.21 Å. The band of the amorphous phase has its maximum at about d = 5.6 Å.
