Description

This lecture covers the structure and mechanical behavior of polymers, focusing on the functionality of monomers, the types of polymer structures, and the influence of temperature on polymer properties. It discusses the differences between thermoplastics, thermosets, and elastomers, as well as the impact of molecular weight, branching, and crystallinity on polymer properties. The lecture also delves into the concepts of viscoelasticity, creep, relaxation, and the linear viscoelastic models used to describe polymer behavior.
