The differentiation of the integral CRYSTAF profile at each temperature provides
the amount of polymer crystallizing at each temperature. The CRYSTAF plot
presents the polymer crystallized as a function of temperature. It is the most widely
used and lucid representation of CRYSTAF results. Figure 2.26 depicts the integral
and differential profile for a blend of HDPE and PP. The molar mass of the polymer,
