Relatively high-molecular-weight linear one- and two-armed and star-shaped four-armed poly(l-lactide) and poly(d-lactide) are synthesized and the multiplicate effects of arm-number (branching architecture, coinitiator moiety), crystallization temperature (Tc), and number-average molecular weight (Mn) on stereocomplex (SC)- and homo-crystallization and phase-transition behavior are investigated. For nonisothermal and isothermal crystallization, in addition to SC crystallites, homo-crystallites are formed in the blends with higher Mn values, irrespective of arm number. For isothermal crystallization, the transition Tc ranges below which in addition to SC crystallites, homo-crystallites are formed depended on Mn per one arm-determining melting temperature or thickness of homo-crystallites. The transition Mn ranges above which in addition to SC crystallites, homo-crystallites are formed are not affected by arm number. The high molecular weight disturbs the change of crystalline growth mechanism of one- and two-armed blends, whereas the branching architecture inhibits the change of crystalline growth mechanism of four-armed blends.
