The change in the conformation of the flexible OCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 O segment of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) monofilament caused by drawing was investigated by means of the γ‐ gauche effect on the 13 C solid‐state NMR chemical shift of the internal methylene carbon, combined with the NMR relaxations. The conformation around the OCH 2 and CH 2 O bonds for as‐spun fiber was trans/trans . On drawing, followed by heat treatment, the conformation changed to gauche/gauche . The ratio of gauche / gauche to trans / trans for the drawn PTT fiber was determined quantitatively. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
