Abstract
It is shown that the elongation to failure δ and ultimate tensile strength σu in polymers are related as σu(1 + δ) = su = const at the temperatures of non-Hookean entropy viscoelasticity. Different drawing from different initial states brings the structure of polymer to the limiting uniaxial structure with the same true stress of breaking carbon chains su.
