Abstract The influence of heavy ion-irradiation (Ar 5.5 MeV amu-1, 5·1011 ion cm-2) on the melting and crystallization of two PBT films subjected to different modes of thermal treatment was investigated. Differences were observed between the processes occurring in both initial films, due to differences in crystalline phase content. The course of melting and crystallization in heavy ion-irradiated films during first heating, cooling and second heating differs from that in the initial films. The density data and DSC results indicate a decreased crystalline phase content in the PBT films after irradiation.
