Abstract

Tensile tests have been conducted at room temperature on uniaxially oriented films of a number of amorphous linear polymers. It has been shown that the mechanical properties of the oriented polymers in the glassy state are chiefly determined by two parameters of the structure—the degree of orientation of the macromolecule segments and the concentration of stressed chains per unit volume, irrespective of the molecular weight of the polymer and the orientational stretching conditions.
