Simulations find that chain-length dispersity boosts polymer crystallinity and growth rates more than pre-shear, which mainly alters crystal grain shapes and tie-chain fractions in monodisperse short-chain melts.
Using this time, an early- stage growth rate proxyk 5% can be defined as its inverse, k5% = 1/τ5%

Effect of Pre-Shear and Dispersity on Crystallization of a Model Polymer with Soft Pair Interactions using Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Simulations find that chain-length dispersity boosts polymer crystallinity and growth rates more than pre-shear, which mainly alters crystal grain shapes and tie-chain fractions in monodisperse short-chain melts.
