A molecular theory is developed in order to elucidate the nature of melting and glass transition of polymers. Rotational oscillations of chain units around chain axis are considered. It is assumed that the units of trans linkage have a sinusoidal interchain potential field in a hexagonal lattice but for gauche the potential field has not such sinusoidal form. The lattice energy is calculated by summing up the Lennard-Jones type pair interactions between units. A critical temperature for the transition between uniform and non-uniform rotational orientations of units is obtained for crystalline or glassy state on the basis of molecular field approximation. Melting temperature (T_m) and glass temperature (T_g) can be predicted from it and the empirically known correlation between T_m and T_g is well explained. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data on polyethylene.
