Fibrillar morphology

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-013100",
  "term": "Fibrillar morphology",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A structural arrangement within a polymer material characterized by elongated, thread-like or fiber-like domains. This morphology often arises from specific processing conditions, such as drawing or extrusion, which induce molecular alignment. It significantly influences the mechanical properties of the polymer, such as tensile strength and stiffness.",
