Abstract
Structural changes in polyethylene during annealing have been characterized by differential scanning calorimetry traces and the yield point has been examined in plane strain compression. Analysis of the results suggests that yield is an activated rate process in which only the pre-exponential factor changes on annealing.Keywords
