The structural evolution during uniaxial tensile deformation of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) and its blend with olefin block copolymer (OBC) was comparatively investigated by in-situ synchrotron X-ray scattering. Small angle X-ray scattering showed that cavitation in iPP/OBC blend took place at a smaller strain than that in neat iPP. The reorientation of the cavities in iPP/OBC occurred at a lower strain than that in iPP as well. Wide angle X-ray scattering was applied to study the crystal-mesophase transition and the orientation process. Compared to the sharp transition in neat iPP, the mesophase formation and orientation in iPP/OBC blend proceeded gradually. The mesophase content and degree of orientation of iPP matrix in iPP/OBC blend were much lower than that in neat iPP within the investigated strain range. By the combination of scattering results and morphological observations, a deformation mechanism based on strain distribution and fracture mechanics was proposed.
