Abstract

It is shown that in the process of extension specimens of a rigid unoriented polymer — polyethylene terephthalate — go over into the oriented state before failure. Various cases of transition to the oriented state are considered: with the formation of a neck and deformation bands, with and without loss of continuity. The degree of molecular orientation of the specimens and their fracture conditions are estimated.
