A Study of the Deformation, Network, and Aging of Polyethylene Oxide Films by Infrared Spectroscopy and Calorimetric Measurements

Figure 3

Spectra in the 1120–1100 cm−1 region at different temperatures going from the solid to the liquid phase. The C–C twisting bands on the 1090–1100 cm−1 interval are seen as indicators of deformation in the T-ramp. Deformation starts after the beginning of the ramp (between 30 and 36°C) and continues more than 25 K in the melt.
