Molecular Strain in High Modulus Polyethylene Fibers During Stress Relaxation Studied by Raman Microscopy

  • Chapter
Book cover Integration of Fundamental Polymer Science and Technology—5

Abstract

Raman spectra of the C-C stretching region of strained high-modulus polyethylene fibers shows the existence of a bi-modal molecular stress distribution. Experiments with various PE fibers showed that the fraction of high-stress bearing C-C bonds increased with increasing E-modulus. During stress relaxation the fraction of high- stress bearing C-C bonds decreases at the same rate as macroscopic stress.
