One of the problems to be considered in the application of the Halpin-Kardos theory to crystalline polymers is the relation of the crystal length to the only related and measurable parameter, spherulite size. The number average crystal length has been computed for various two and three dimensional models for the crystallization process assuming heterogeneous nucleation. It was found that high values of crystallinity are consistent only with lamellae that are stacked in a parallel fashion. For these systems the number average lamellar length is 0.55 of the spherulite radius. Lower crystallinity polymers have an average lamellar length 0.3 to 0.5 of the spherulite radius, the actual value being determined by the radius. For spherulites of radius 1μm or greater, the size of the primary nucleus has no noticeable influence on the average lamellar length.
