A CROSS-LINKED POLYMER STANDARD: REPORT ON POLYMER SELECTION.

Abstract

The properties of the polyurethane, Solithane 113, were investigated to explore its suitability as an interim standard polymer and to develop methods for such standardization. The stress relaxation behavior from the rubbery to the glassy region was evaluated for five catalyst/prepolymer ratios. Unsuccessful attempts were made to simultaneously record the relaxation of the stress optical coefficient. The tensile failure envelope was measured for some of these same compositions.
