Abstract
A quantitative model is proposed for flow and forced high elasticity o f cross-linked polymers based on the cluster model of amorphous state structure. The flow process is seen as the loss of displacement stabil ity by the clusters, while forced high elasticity is related to the me chanical devitrification of the softpack matrix. Fractal analysis was used to show a turbulent regime for the forced high elasticity of cros s-linked polymers.
