Films obtained via drying a polymeric latex dispersion are normally colloidal crystalline where latex particles are packed into a face centered cubic (fcc) structure.Different from conventional atomic crystallites or hard sphere colloidal crystallites,the crystalline structure of these films is normally deformable due to the low glass transition temperature of the latex particles.Upon tensile deformation,depending on the drawing direction with respect to the normal of specific crystallographic plane,one observes different crystalline structural changes.Three typical situations where crystallographic c-axis,body diagonal or face diagonal of the fcc structure of the colloidal crystallites being parallel to the stretching direction were investigated.Tilting angle and d-spacing of several crystallographic planes as a function of draw ratio at each situation were derived.Experimental evidences for such relationships were also given by considering in-situ synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering data of a typical latex film during stretching.It turns out that the experimental results are fully in accordance with the mathematical calculations.
