It has been found that poly(ethylene sulfide) obtained by anionic polymerization in tetrahydrofuran assumes the shapes of platelets, microhedrites, microspherulites, or particles of irregular structure, depending upon the molecular weight of poly(ethylene sulfide). In the case of block copolymers of ethylene sulfide and styrene, the morphological form has been found to be dependent upon the composition of the copolymer.
