Abstract

Semi-crystalline polymers consist of amorphous and crystalline phases, and exhibit time-dependent behavior. They offer important advantages over other materials, such as good chemical resistance and attractive mechanical properties. This paper provides a brief review of experimental studies on the timedependent behavior of semi-crystalline polymers.
