Abstract
AbstractSome recent observations on shear bands in polymers are reviewed. These include intrinsic properties such as the mechanism of formation, the intersection of shear bands, the rate of propagation with and without obstacles, recovery of shear strain by annealing, and the stored energy in shear bands. Mechanical responses include the shear yielding criteria, reverse shear behavior and the Bauschinger effect, and the fracture of and at shear bands. Environmental effects include methanol transport in shear bands and in deformed poly(methvl methacrylate) in the region of mixed Fickian and case II behavior and methanol crazing of a shear banded material.
