Plasticity Of Polymers

Plasticity of Polymers is a material behavior model that characterizes the irreversible, time-dependent deformation of polymeric materials under sustained mechanical stress, distinguishing it from elastic and brittle responses by its reliance on molecular chain mobility and viscoplastic flow mechanisms.
