Polymer physics

a theory that spherulites grow fibrous and branched because impurities rejected at the growth front create a diffusion length that sets fibril width.

In polymer physics, Keith-Padden theory refers to a theory that spherulites grow fibrous and branched because impurities rejected at the growth front create a diffusion length that sets fibril width. This meaning comes from Keith (1963) in Journal of Applied Physics.[1]
