| Abstract: | The structures of PMMA, PS, and PC are considered in relation to the mechanical properties. The part played by the individual elements of the microstructure and their influence on the mechanical strength and deformability of the material are determined. The experimental data obtained by various authors are interpreted on the basis of the microstructural characteristics of polymers.Institute of Problems of Mechanics, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Moscow.
