The crystallization of poly(É-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(É-caprolactone) (PCL-PEO-PCL) triblock copolymer was studied using FTIR and 2D FTIR spectroscopies. The weight ratio of PCL/PEO in the investigated sample was about 20:1. Although it is such a low amount of PEO that it cannot form any crystals, the PEO block undergoes some structural change in the cooling process. It was established that the PCL constituent crystallized quickly, and then forced the noncrystallizable PEO constituent to form a tighter structure (helical conformation) from the trans zigzag conformation. Besides, through the 2D IR analysis, more exact and detailed assignments of the overlapped CH2 bands have been made - the 1193Â cmâ1 band is attributed to methylene next to the carbonyl group, whereas the 1162Â cmâ1 and 1295Â cmâ1 bands are assigned to other common methylenes.
