2. Seal application:
- Processes at low temperatures
Glass-rubber transition:
• is a typical process in polymers/elastomers
• correlates with (intra-)molecular mobility
• above glass-rubber transition molecules are flexible
• below glass-rubber transition molecules are stiff
Crystallisation:
• crytallites act as additional crosslinks
=> they stabilise the deformed state
• causes density increase/volume reduction
