This review is intended for scientists in polymer materials and physics, aiming to inspire how the rich applications of AFM can be harnessed to address fundamental scientific questions in polymer crystallization. This paper reviews recent advances in polymer crystallization characterization based on AFM, focusing on its applications in visualizing hierarchical polymer crystal structures (single crystals, spherulites, dendritic crystals, and shish kebab crystals), investigating crystallization kinetics (in situ monitoring of crystal growth), and analyzing structure-property relationships (structural changes under temperature and stress). Finally, we introduce the application of the latest AFM technology in addressing key issues in polymer crystallization, such as single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) and atomic force microscopy-infrared spectroscopy (AFM-IR).

The drying process was monitored through changes in solid concentration, residual solvent content, and film thickness over time. Results revealed that coatings with higher PVA content exhibit slower drying rates, due to the transition from evaporation-controlled to diffusion-limited mechanisms, attributed to polymer densification and reduced solvent diffusivity. In contrast, coatings incorporating bentonite dried more rapidly despite their similar or higher total solids content, indicating a beneficial role of bentonite in facilitating moisture transport. Thinner coatings demonstrated faster drying but retained the characteristic mechanistic transitions observed in thicker films. A simple realistic model to simulate the drying rate was also proposed.
