Abstract
Experimentally observed Hv and Vv light-scattering patterns from stretched films of collagen, poly(chlorotrifluoroethylene), polypropylene and polyethylene A–B type block copolymers, and hydroxypropylcellulose were theoretically explained in terms of a model based upon affine deformation and orientation of optically anisotropic fibrils constituting the films and orientation toward the stretching direction of the principal optical axes of the scattering elements constituting the fibrils.The effect of birefringence on the light-scattering patterns was also studied for the case when the stretching direction of the films was inclined with respect to the polarization direction of the polarizer or analyzer used in the polarized light-scattering method.
