and many different modes can be applied

The different definitions of tensile strain
become equivalent at very small deformations.
The stress [Pa = N/m2] refers to the initial cross section
Stress and strain are principally time-dependent
stress can “relax” (at constant strain)
elongation can “creep” (at constant stress)

The volume change on deformation is for most elastomers negligible so that
=0.5 (isotropic, incompressible materials).

Left: silicon rubber with a glass transition at –117°C and a melting transition at –40°C. Beyond the
melting temperature this crosslinked (vulcanised) material shows rubber-elasticity with modulus that
increases with the temperature.
Right: also a silicone rubber that contains silicone oil as diluent, as plasticizer. The oil causes a stressrelaxation at the beginning of the melting transition around –47°C.

An increase of the measuring frequency  (heating rate) by a factor 10 (or a decrease of

3 K higher.
Master Curves*) extend the range
• We can collect data from 0.01 to 100 Hz.
• If we do this at many temperatures, we can
“superposition” the data.
TTS
• After TTS, our range is 1e-7 to 1e9 Hertz (1/sec)
• Then x scale (frequency) can then be inverted to get
time *) modulus or compliance; compliance = (modulus)-1
BUT...
TTS assumes that:
“all relaxation times are equally affected
by temperature.”
THIS IS KNOWN TO OFTEN BE
INVALID.
