Abstract

The structural meaning of the dimension rpl of the zone of local plastic deformation in polymers is determined. In simulating the polymer structure as a percolation cluster, the quantity rpl is the correlation length of the structure of the polymer deformed until inelastic deformations appear. This rule holds for both amorphous glassy polymers and amorphous-crystalline polymers and for various types of the indicated zones (crazing or shear).
