Summary
Based on the fact that, for a large number of polymers, the lateral deformation in tension is a contraction and the volume dilatation must be positive, bounds were established for the values of the lateral contraction ratio functions in creep and relaxation. These bounds are that v *=(v′ -i v″) must be positive and smaller than 0.5.
It was shown in the paper that in the case when v* is positive, the loss tangents for various modes of deformation in relaxation or creep follow the relations:
-
a)
For relaxation: tan δ G > tan δ E > tan δ m > tan δ K > tan δ vr
-
b)
For creep: tan δ j > tan δ D > tan δM > tan δ B > tan δ vc where the indices G and J correspond to a shear mode of deformation in relaxation or creep, the indices E and D to extension, the index M to longitudinal bulk, the indices K and B to bulk deformation and v r and v c to the LCR functions in relaxation or creep.
Extensive experimental evidence with various types of polymers submitted to different modes of loading corroborates with the results of the theory.
