Craze initiation in glassy polymers: Quantifying the influence of molecular orientation
- Abstract:
-
A study has been made of crazing stress in oriented glassy polystyrene. The aim was to develop a methodology for prediction of crazing stress in glassy polymers with frozen-in molecular orientation. Oriented specimens of two grades of monodisperse polystyrene (PS) and one grade of polydisperse PS were produced by uniaxial melt-drawing and subsequent quenching of compression-moulded bars. Birefringence and crazing stress parallel to the draw direction (in the presence of diethylene glycol) wer...
