Abstract
Dynamic mechanical and dielectric relaxational behavior of poly(monoethylphenyl itaconate) at different frequencies and temperatures was studied. Three relaxation zones are found. The dynamic mechanical response is dominated by a relaxation peak at room temperature, labeled β relaxation. Two prominent shoulders labelled as γ and α relaxations are observed. Because of the overlapping of the α and γ with the β relaxation, a deconvolution method to improve the understanding of these phenomena is proposed. In spite of the complexity of the experimental spectra, the proposed deconvolution method seems to be a convenient approach to interpret the relaxational behavior of this polymer. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
