Description

Book Synopsis

Surface Phenomena in the Structural and Mechanical Behaviour of Solid Polymers explores the role of various surface phenomena in the structural and mechanical behaviour of amorphous and semicrystalline polymers. This book:

  • Discusses the development of the interfacial surface in the deformation of polymers
  • Examines the healing of interfacial surfaces in polymers
  • Inspects the structure and properties of polymers in thin films and surface layers
  • Evaluates the mechanism of inelastic deformation in glassy amorphous polymers
  • Investigates strain softening and the phenomena taking place upon deformation of polymers in active liquid media
  • Covers the Rehbinder effect, or the adsorption reduction of the strength of solids
  • Describes the properties of polymers in environmental or solvent crazing
  • Analyses the interaction of the highly developed surface of crazed polymers with diverse low- and high-molecular mas

    Table of Contents

    Development of the interfacial surface in deformation of polymers. Healing of the interfacial surface in polymer systems. Special features of the structure and properties of surface layers and thin (nanometric) films of glassy polymers. Role of surface phenomena in shear yielding of glassy polymers. Role of surface phenomena in strain softening of glassy and crystalline polymers. Role of surface phenomena in deformation of polymers in active liquid media. The structure and properties of crazed polymers. Multiphase nanodispersed systems based on crazed polymers. Instability and self-organisation of polymer surfaces. Evaluation of the structural and mechanical properties of nanometric surface layers. Natural systems constructed on the basis of the ‘a rigid coating on a soft substratum’ principle. Perspectives for the practical application of surface phenomena in solid polymers.
