Plastic Deformation Mechanisms of Semicrystalline and Amorphous Polymers
Abstract
We use large-scale molecular dynamics simulations to investigate plastic deformation of semicrystalline polymers with randomly nucleated crystallites. The strain-softening regime is dominated by deformation of crystallites via reorientation of chain-folded lamellae toward the tensile axis, fragmentation of largest crystalline domains, and a partial loss of crystallinity. The strain-hardening regime coincides with unfolding of chains and recrystallization as a result of strain-induced chain alignment. These observed deformation mechanisms are consistent with experimental findings. We compare the tensile behavior of semicrystalline polymers with their amorphous counterparts at temperatures above and below the glass transition temperature.

“As a result of the high cooling rates and the fact that nucleation was homogeneous [18,75], only co-crystallization of the long and short chains was observed (Fig. 6).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
