The potential strain energy of a polymer molecule in nonlinear approximation

  • Published:
Polymer Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

The intermolecular interaction mechanism is analyzed, and the results are used to derive a general semiempirical formula for the strain energy of a helical polymer molecule in nonlinear approximation. Formulas are given for the homogeneous straining of specific polymers. The relationship between the elastic constants of the molecule and the final strain is computed.
