Abstract
A relationship is established between the temperature-time dependence of the radial dimensions of the specular zones on polymer (PMM, PCL) fracture surfaces and the parameters characterizing the kinetics of main-crack growth. This makes it possible to calculate the kinetic crack growth parameters from the data of a fractographic investigation.
