Raman spectroscopy can be used to determine the glass transition temperature, melting transition temperature, and estimation of crystallinity. Peak intensities prove useful in identifying changes in the samples molecular organisation and therefore the temperature of transition such as the glass transition. In this application note we investigated the phase transitions occurring in polyethylene and nylon-6 using the RMS1000 Raman Microscope and a temperature stage.
