Yielding processes in glassy polymers

摘要: Our contribution deals with a description of yield in glassy polymers, being treated as an activated process. For the Eyring equation simplified form has been selected: ((1)) where σy = stress, T absolute temperature, and A, B, C parameters. In first part applicability this verified by applying data our own well those published elsewhere. more comprehensive representation results were processed generalized master curves using appropriate shift factors derived from eq. (1).
