The structure of amorphous layer of folding surface controls the properties of the polymer lamellar crystal, which consists of chains with a loop conformation. The surface tension depends on the length and the distance between two injection points of the loop which involving the reptation motion and lateral exchange motion of the stems. In the present work, a local-exchange motion model based on the worm-like chain model is developed to investigate the effects of lateral motion of stems on the release the surface tension. The optimal distance between two injection points is determined by the balance of chain bending energy and conformational entropy. The numerical results provide evidences to the adjacent re-entry model for various loop lengths. A possible explanation involving density of injection points is proposed to interpret the mechanism.
