A study of stress relaxation phenomena in linear polymers at low temperatures

Stress relaxation experiments have been carried out on single filaments of nylon, viscose rayon and acetate rayon over the temperature range 0°C. to -80°C. Similar experiments were also performed on viscose rayon yarns immersed in water at 35°C. In these latter experiments, a marked change in the sh...
