26. Although the largest changes in the rheology are observed between 140 and 150 °C, we assign the apparent ODT (later to be assigned as an order-order transition) to 138 ± 3 °C. This assignment was made on the basis of temperature jump annealing experiments carried out from 120 to 140, 220 to 140, and 220 to 135 °C, which revealed that the thermotropic transition was lower than 140 °C and higher than 135 °C. Details of these annealing studies will be reported in a manuscript that is currently under preparation.
