Review: Torsional Braid Analysis of Polymers.
Abstract
A review of the present status of Torsional Braid Analysis (TBA) includes discussion of instrumentation, specimen preparation, theory, and data reduction. The obtained thermomechanical spectra (about 1 cps) are discussed in terms of advantages which result from the use of small specimens. Applications include structure-property relationships, kinetics of crosslinking, and optimization of thermomechanical behavior in reactive systems. (Author)
