As result, other equations have been proposed to provide better accuracy for certain polymers.
Additives can also lead to big increases in efficiency for polymers.
We have seen that the magnitude of T g varies over a wide temperature range for different polymers.
The most widely used method for linear polymers is based on a two-step process.
The dry process is only suitable for polymers with high crystallinity.
For polymers in solvents the story is much more complicated and to my knowledge no general theory exists.
Heat resistance is thus given for amorphous polymers just below the glass transition temperature.
Second, he has effectively served as an ambassador for science and for polymers to the world.
Dry spinning is also used for polymers that must be dissolved in solvent.
Melt spinning is used for polymers that can be melted.
